Stop-F Functionality

The Stop-F functionality is not available on systems with USB keyboards.

Stop-D Functionality

The Stop-D (Diags) key sequence is not supported on systems with USB keyboards.
However, you can closely emulate the Stop-D functionality by setting the virtual
keyswitch to diag, using the ILOM set /SYS keyswitch_state=diag
command. For more information, refer to the ILOM guide and the ILOM supplement
for your server.

Automatic System Recovery

The system provides for automatic system recovery (ASR) from failures in memory
modules or PCI cards.

Automatic system recovery functionality enables the system to resume operation
after experiencing certain nonfatal hardware faults or failures. When ASR is enabled,
the system’s firmware diagnostics automatically detect failed hardware components.
An autoconfiguring capability designed into the system firmware enables the system
to unconfigure failed components and to restore system operation. As long as the
system is capable of operating without the failed component, the ASR features
enable the system to reboot automatically, without operator intervention.

Note –

ASR is not activated until you enable it. See

“Enabling and Disabling

Automatic System Recovery” on page 42

.

For more information about ASR, refer to the service manual for your server.
