managed system with the following prerequisites.

the managed system software, see the

Run a supported Microsoft Windows operating system with the Windows
automatically reboot
feature deselected in the
Windows Startup and
Recovery Settings
.

Enable the Last Crash Screen (disabled by default).
To enable the Last Crash Screen using local RACADM, open a command
prompt and type the following commands:
racadm config -g cfgRacTuning -o
cfgRacTuneAsrEnable 1
4

Auto Recovery

Auto Recovery
timer,
you must use Server Administrator or IT Assistant.

be captured, the
Auto Recovery

to
