3 Using ODE on HP 9000 Systems
The HP 9000 Offline Diagnostics Environment CD provides a comprehensive offline diagnostic solution. The CD includes a suite of diagnostic tools that enable you to troubleshoot a system troubleshoot a system on which
The ODE is also useful for some types of testing when it is not desirable to boot to the operating system first, as is often the case in manufacturing environment.
This chapter describes the ODE tools for HP 9000 systems and tells you how to obtain and install them. This chapter addresses the following topics:
•An overview of the ODE tools on HP 9000 systems.
•How to obtain a CD containing the ODE or to create your own CD using an image downloaded from the Web.
•How to run the ODE either from CD or from the system disk using the Boot Logical Interchange Format (LIF).
