Pager Data Setting Description
Pager
status

Pager dial
string
ATDT
555-5555
Indicates the pager dial string and delay before the pager
message. Pagers typically use one of the following formats:
Local pagers: ATDT 555-5555
Wide area pagers: ATDT 1-800-555-5555,1234567#
Pager
message
1234567# Represents a unique number (maximum seven digits, numeric
only) that you must designate to identify the server on your pager
display. The ROM adds a three-digit code to the front of this
number. The first two indicate the subsystem and the third
indicates the severity of the error that caused the alert. The #
symbol usually terminates the message. If no message is required,
delete
the # symbol.
Pager test Select to
test pager
setup
Use this to test the current pager settings. Press Enter to dial the
pager number, and the pager message (if present) displays. You
must configure the computer before testing the pager and the
Pager Status must be set to Enabled. Do not test the pager if you
are running remotely and are using only one modem.
Serial
interface
COM1 Select the communications port for the modem used by the pager
and the remote ASR-2 functions. The options are COM1 and
COM2.
Dial-in
status
Enabled Set Dial-In Status to Enabled. Be sure the Reset Boot option is set
to Boot Compaq Utilities. When the system starts because of an
ASR reset, it starts to the Compaq Utilities, sets the Management
Modem to auto-answer, and waits for the administrator to dial in
and run the Compaq Utilities.
You automatically disable this option when you configure the
software error recovery start option to Boot Operating System.
When ASR pages you, you cannot dial in unless ASR-2 exceeds
10, the threshold number of server restart retries. When this
happens, ASR-2 restarts the server into the Compaq Utilities and
places the modem in auto-answer mode.
