Running System Verification Tests

Running System Verification Tests

HP-UX uses an online diagnostics product named Mesa (Support Tools Manager) that allows system operation verification.

Three interfaces are available with the Support Tools Manager:

A command line interface accessed through the cstm command

A menu-driven interface accessed through the mstm command

A graphical user interface accessed through the xstm command

For more information on these user interfaces, see the online man pages by entering the following at a command line prompt:

man cstm Enter

man mstm Enter

man xstm Enter

For information on the enhanced online diagnostics, see the Support Media User’s Manual (HP Part Number B3782-90176).

To access the Support Tools Manager, perform the following steps:

1.In a terminal window, type the following at the # prompt to invoke the command line interface:

# cstm Enter

2.The following message appears:

Support Tools Manager

Version A.01.00

Type help for a list of available commands:

CSTM> help Enter

3.To verify the system operation, type the following at the CSTM> prompt:

CSTM> verify all Enter

Messages similar to the following appear:

Verification has started on device (CPU). Verification has started on device (FPU). CSTM> Verification of(FPU) has completed. CSTM> Verification of(CPU) has completed.

4.Press Enter to return to the CSTM> prompt after all test results are reported.

5.To exit the Support Tools Manager, enter the following:

CSTM> exit Enter

If any tests failed, run Self Test and ISL diagnostics to isolate the problem.
