Loader Timeout



Loader Timeout

Note: This function requires a specially architected POST routine and is available only on some IBM systems.

The Loader Timeout field shows the number of seconds that the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will wait for the system's loading process to complete before generating a Loader Timeout event. The Loader Timeout measures the amount of time that passes between the completion of POST and the end of operating system (O/S) startup. If this takes longer than the configured amount of time to complete and the Loader timeout check box (found in the Enabled Alerts Dialout group of the Automatic Dialout Settings window) is checked, the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will automatically restart the system one time and will attempt to forward an alert to all enabled Dialout Entries. Once the system is restarted Loader Timeout is automatically disabled.

To set the Loader timeout value, use the spin buttons beside the Loader Timeout field to set the number of seconds that the Advanced Systems Management Adapter will wait between POST completion and O/S startup before generating a timeout event. Then, click on Apply to save this value.

For more information on the Automatic Dialout Settings window, see 'Automatic Dialout Settings'.
