Save Changes to the Database
This option allows the user to save any changes made to the run-time options.
Without saving the changes, any changes made are only applicable to that
session of diagnostics (the default is no).
Display Previous Diagnostic Results
Note: This service aid is only available when you load the diagnostics from a disk
drive or a network. However, on a CHRP system, this service aid is available when
you run the diagnostics in standalone mode because the results are stored in the
NVRAM.
Each time the diagnostics produce a service request number (SRN) to report a
problem, information about that problem is logged. The service representative can
look at this log to see which SRNs are recorded. This log also records the results of
diagnostic tests that are run in loop mode.
When this service aid is selected, information on the last problem logged is
displayed. The arrow keys can be used to look at information about previous
problems.
This information

is not

from the error log maintained by the AIX operating system.
The ASCII version of the Diagnostics Log is available in the
/etc/lpp/diagnostics/data/*.dat files.
Display Resource Attributes
This task displays the Customized Device Attributes associated with a selected
resource. This task is similar to running the lsattr -E -l <resource> command.
Display Service Hints
This service aid reads and displays the information in the CEREADME file from the
diagnostics media. This file contains information that is not in the publications for
this version of the diagnostics. It also contains information about using this particular
version of diagnostics.
Use the arrow keys to scroll through the information in the file.
