Using the Diagnostic/IPR Media to Run Offline Diagnostics

How to Run ODE's Command Line Interface

How to Run ODE's Command Line Interface

To start ODE's command line interface, do the following:

1.If you are at the PDC prompt (e.g., BOOTADMIN>), type search for a list of bootable devices:

BOOTADMIN>search

2.Select the tape or CD device, depending upon your Diagnostic/IPR Media, and boot from that device:

BOOTADMIN>boot SCSI.3.3

3. At the ISL> prompt, type the following:

ISL>ODE

The following prompt will then be displayed:

ODE>

4. Type the following, for a list of available commands with a capsule description of each:

ODE>help

The following information will be displayed:

MAIN HELP SCREEN

Basic Commands

HELP Prints detailed information to the screen, when "help <command>" or "help <var>" is typed

LS List modules available on boot medium

<Module_Name> Load and initialize a module by typing its name (For more help, type "help module_name")

RUN Run a module (after setting desired environment variables) Control-YControl-C Abort an ODE command; pause a module run RESUME Restart a paused module

DISPLOG After running a module, display contents of a log EXIT Return to next higher level prompt

Environmental Variables

-

SHOWSTATE Display the value of the following environment variables: LOOP Run a test this many times

ERRPRINT [ONOFF] Print low-level error messages to console (primarily for manufacturing use)

ERRNUM [ONOFF] Print one-line, numbered errors to the console ERRPAUSE [ONOFF] Pause module upon error detection

ERRONLY [ONOFF] Print ONLY error messages; disable non-error and isolation message printing

INFOPRINT [ONOFF] Print informational messages to the console ISOPRINT [ONOFF] Print fault isolation messages to the console ISOPAUSE [ONOFF] Pause module when isolation message is generated

LOGSIZE Set the size of a message log

DEFAULT Reset environment variables to default state

5.For more information on any of these commands or options, type help <command> or help <var>, as appropriate.

6.To list the ODE modules that will run on the current SPU, type ls at the ODE prompt.
