Running ODE-Based Diagnostics

Troubleshooting

The Ofﬂine Diagnostic Environment (ODE) consists of diagnostic modules for testing and verifying system operation. ODE provides all the necessary functions for the user to load speciﬁed tests and interact with those tests.

ODE is an ISL utility. To boot ODE:

1.Invoke the ISL environment from the system disk or a CD ROM.

2.Type ode [Enter] after the ISL> prompt to invoke ODE from the LIF directory on the system disk. The prompt changes to ODE>.

Not all of the test modules are available on all systems. To see what test modules are available to run on this system, type ls at the ODE> prompt. The available modules include the following:

•astrodiag – tests and veriﬁes the basic functionality of the Astro memory controller/I/O chip.

•siodiag – tests and veriﬁes the basic functionality of the SuperI/O multifunction I/O chip, including serial, parallel, USB, and so forth.

•wdiag – tests and veriﬁes the functionality of the PA-RISC chip.

•memtest – tests and veriﬁes the memory arrays. If an error is detected, the diagnostic reports the memory card and its slot number that needs replacement. It also provides a map of the memory conﬁguration so that the user can identify the type of memory and its slot location.

•fupdate – updates the system’s Processor Dependent Code (PDC) ﬁrmware in the

EEPROM.

•mapper – identiﬁes the conﬁguration of HPPA systems. It displays path, identiﬁcation, and revision information of I/O components, conﬁguration of memory controllers, processors, co-processors, cache, and TLB, as well as processor board component revisions and values of various HPPA system identiﬁers, revisions, and capabilities.

For further information on the various ODE commands and a complete listing of the command set, type help [Enter] at the ODE> prompt or at the prompt of one of the test modules.
