PCI RAID Physical Disk Identify

This selection identifies physical disks connected to a PCI SCSI-2 F/W RAID adapter.

This task can be run directly from the AIX command line. The syntax of the command is as follows:

diag -c -d pci RAID adapter -T identify

Process Supplemental Media

Diagnostic Supplemental Media contains all the necessary diagnostic programs and files required to test a particular resource. The supplemental media is normally released and shipped with the resource as indicated on the diskette label. Diagnostic Supplemental Media must be used when the device support has not been incorporated into the latest diagnostic CD-ROM.

This task processes the Diagnostic Supplemental Media. Insert the supplemental media when you are prompted, then press Enter. After processing has completed, go to the Resource Selection list to find the resource to test.

Run Diagnostics

The Run Diagnostics task invokes the Resource Selection List menu. When the commit key is pressed, diagnostics are run on all selected resources.

The procedures for running the diagnostics depend on the state of the diagnostics run-time options. See ªDisplay or Change Diagnostic Run-Time Optionsº on page 126.

Run Error Log Analysis

The Run Error Log Analysis task invokes the Resource Selection List menu. When the commit key is pressed, Error Log Analysis is run on all selected resources.

Run Exercisers

This task provides a tool to troubleshoot intermittent system problems on AIX version

4.3.2or later. This task provides an exerciser supervisor that controls the selected exercisers.

When you select Run Exercisers from the Task Selection menu, the EXERCISER SELECTION menu displays. Select the exerciser you want to run. Each exerciser has other menus to set options for that exerciser.

Exerciser Commands (Cmd)

Use the following commands as needed in the exerciser menus and reports. Not all commands are available in each menu or report.
