Recovering from failures

This chapter provides detailed information on recovering from HP-UX
system interruptions.

Usually, the first indication of a problem is that the system does not
respond to user input. This lack of response indicates either a
performance problem or system interruption.

Performance problems are generally characterized by:

• The system responds to one or more programs/users but not all, or

sluggishly to others.

• The system seems to be very slow

System interruptions usually result in a total loss of CPU resources for
all users/programs due to a:

• System hang

• System panic

• HPMC
