operating system
A tool that lets the server restart
automatically after a catastrophic
operating system failure,
including software errors, OS
lockups, environmental
abnormalities, and some
hardware errors.
A system failsafe timer, the
ASR-2 timer, is started when the
Compaq System Management
driver, also known as the health
driver, is loaded. The Compaq
Insight Manager console notifies
you in the event of an ASR-2
restart. You can disable ASR-2
from the Compaq Insight
Manager console.
