Example 4-4 Using an Unsupported Tool

ODE> WDIAG

The Hversion = 88c0. The Sversion = 491. UUT_MODEL = 88c

---------------------------------------------------------------------

WARNING: THIS PROCESSOR MODEL 88c IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THIS DIAGNOSTIC.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

FATAL SOFTWARE ERROR !!

EXECUTION OF WDIAG MAY PRODUCE UNDEFINED RESULTS

ERROR: Initialization of WDIAG failed

If you are uncertain about which tools you can use on your system, specify the ls command at the ODE prompt to obtain information about the tools your system supports. For example:

Entering Invalid Commands

Common errors such as specifying an unknown command, a misspelled command, or an inaccurate parameter will cause ODE to generate error messages. Example 4-6shows three such errors.

Example 4-6 Entering Invalid Commands

ODE> loadd

INVALID COMMAND: COMMAND = LOADD

ODE> load

MISSING PARAMETER: COMMAND = LOAD

ODE> load !4

INVALID PARAMETER: COMMAND = LOAD !4

Running ODE Tools on HP 9000 Systems

This section shows the output of tools run on HP 9000 systems. The complementary tools for Integrity Systems and Itanium worksations will produce similar results. The following examples are provided:

•Examining the tools suite

•Examining a tool's functions and running the tool

•Using the makodiag command

•Using the diskexpt2 command

Examining the Tools Suite

The following example shows the initiation of an ODE session and using the ls command to display the installed tools on a 64-bit system:
