Hp Insight Diagnostics; Integrated Management Log; Survey Utility - HP DL380 Generation 4 Maintenance And Service Manual

ASR increases server availability by restarting the server within a specified time after a system hang or
shutdown. At the same time, the HP SIM console notifies you by sending a message to a designated
pager number that ASR has restarted the system. You can disable ASR from the HP SIM console or
through RBSU.

For more information, refer to the Management CD in the HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack.

Survey Utility

Survey Utility, a feature within HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 70), gathers critical hardware and
software information on ProLiant servers.
This utility supports operating systems that may not be supported by the server. For operating systems
supported by the server, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
If a significant change occurs between data-gathering intervals, the Survey Utility marks the previous
information and overwrites the Survey text files to reflect the latest changes in the configuration.
Survey Utility is installed with every SmartStart-assisted installation or can be installed through the HP PSP.
NOTE: SmartStart version 7.5 and later provides the memory spare part numbers for the server.
