O/S Timeout


O/S Timeout

A periodic signal is sent from the Advanced Remote Management controller to the O/S to confirm that the O/S is running properly. The O/S Timeout event occurs when the O/S the Advanced Remote Management controller performs its automatic dialout functions if there is no response to the signal, that is, if the O/S Timeout pulse is not detected.

The O/S Timeout field shows the number of seconds that the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will wait for the system's operating system to stop responding before generating a O/S Timeout event. If the O/S takes longer than the configured amount of time to respond and the device driver is installed and running correctly, the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will attempt to restart the system, and if the O/S timeout check box (found in the Enabled Alerts Dialout group of the Automatic Dialout Settings window) is checked, the Service Processor will automatically restart the system one time and will attempt to forward an alert to all enabled Dialout Entries.

To set the O/S timeout value, use the spin buttons beside the O/S Timeout field to set the number of seconds that the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will wait for the system's operating system to stop responding before generating a O/S Timeout event. Then, click on Apply to save this value.
