Configuring Event Management

Choosing the Event Management command from the Main Menu displays the Event
Management window where you can specify options to manage server events, and
identify particular events that will generate a notification via pager.

NOTE

Some of HP Remote Assistant's Event Management parameters (excluding
the shutdown string) can also be configured from a remote console. For more
information on configuring management settings from a remote console, see
Chapter 5.

Server Control Options

The window provides three checkboxes for specifying server control options and a text
entry field for entering a graceful shutdown string that can be sent to the server's
keyboard controller.

Power Control Cable is Installed. Check this box if the power control cable is
connected between the HP Remote Assistant EISA Board and the power adapter in the
server.

If the power control cable is connected, Automatic Server Restart (ASR) will be able to
power cycle the system, performing an action identical to pushing the server's power
button off and on. Also, the graceful shutdown feature will be able to power off the
server if the temperature reaches a critical threshold.
