Configuring the HP Remote Assistant
After you've installed the HP Remote Assistant board and used the EISA
Configuration Utility to set selected system parameters and have either installed or
updated the Utility Partition, you are ready to proceed with the HP Remote Assistant
Configuration Utility. This is a DOS-based utility that you use to configure HP Remote
Assistant for server management operations including:
•
Set up an administrator alias list for system access and pager notification
•
Configure event management operations, including the enabling of paging
•
Test HP Remote Assistant functions
•
Specify sensor thresholds
•
Configure communications for modem (on-board or external), or direct serial
connections
•
Specify a server keyboard layout
•
View a log of server events
•
View current measurements
•
Rearm monitors
•
Shut down the HP Remote Assistant EISA Board
•
Specify a server name and identification number to be included with notification
pages
NOTE
Many of the configuration tasks that you can perform with the Configuration
Utility on the server can also be duplicated via the HP Remote Assistant
Management Program that you run from the remote console. See "Remotely
Logging In to the Server" in Chapter 5 for more details.
