2.4.1.10 Advanced Diagnostic Program

The advanced diagnostic program is intended to be used by trained service technicians or very experienced users who can correctly interpret the advanced diagnostic panel messages. It is an alternative method of testing the server.

An advantage of running the Advanced Diagnostic program is that if you suspect a specific area of the server is causing a problem, you can choose to test only that area. This will take less time than testing all of the components in the server.

To start the Advanced Diagnostic program:

1.Start the system programs.

2.When the system programs main menu appears, press and hold Ctrl and then press A. A message appears telling you to insert the diagnostic diskette.

3.Insert the diagnostic diskette.
