1 Introducing HP NetServer AutoPilot
When ASR service is enabled, the ASR software periodically notifies the ASR
hardware that the system is running correctly. When the system crashes or hangs,
the ASR hardware stops receiving the OK notices and automatically initiates a
system restart.
NOTE In order for the ASR service to function correctly, the system must be
configured to restart successfully without user intervention.
Be advised, however, that not all system hangs will cause a system restart. For
example, if the network operating system is still functional, but all forms of user
input have been disabled due to error (giving the appearance of a system hang),
ASR will not initiate a system restart.
HP AutoPilot Client Software
HP AutoPilot Client software is installed on a designated workstation (referred to in
this guide as the HP AutoPilot Client). The software is designed to receive and display
notifications and alarms from HP NetServer E Series regarding the server's operational
status.
