2. On the Utilities page, drop down the menu and choose the Platform
Confidence Test option.
3. Click on the Create Diskette icon that appears and when prompted, choose
to save the file to a temporary folder on your hard drive.
4. Locate the file you just saved and run the SDS2PCT.exe program obtained
from the CD. This will extract the files for the Platform Confidence Test onto
the floppy along with a file called MKBOOT.BAT.
5. Reboot the server to the resource CD and insert the floppy with the Platform
Confidence Test files into the floppy drive.
6. Exit to DOS by choosing Quit from the menu and then selecting Quit Now.
At the DOS prompt, change to the floppy disk and execute the
MKBOOT.BAT file. This will make your floppy disk bootable and copy over
the appropriate DOS components for creating a RAMDRIVE for the Platform
Confidence Test to extract to.
7. Reboot your system using the floppy diskette.
8. You will be asked to agree to a licensing agreement prior to the actual file
expansion occurring. The agreement is the file LEGAL.TXT.
9. A RAMDRIVE will be created into which the diagnostic tests are copied.
10. When the copy process is complete, you will be presented with a menu of
five options. These menu options are discussed in greater detail in the
Platform Confidence Test manual Rev. 2.2.
Status: Fixed. The SDS2 system resource CD-ROM with part number A58098-003
has corrected these issues.
7. NIC driver set 5.12 v.2.3.15 for UnixWare* 7.1.1 drops DPC LAN connection
Problem: When the NIC driver set 5.1.2 v.2.3.15 for UnixWare* 7.1.1 is utilized on the
Intel® Server Board SDS2, the DPC LAN connection to the SDS2 server is
dropped when a power control action is initiated.
Implication: NIC driver set 5.1.2 v.2.3.15 for UnixWare* 7.1.1 should not be used with the
Intel® Server Board SDS2 if DPC LAN is being used.
Workaround: Intel recommends using the driver version embedded in the UnixWare* 7.1.1
operating system CD-ROM distribution (v.1.3.9) in order to avoid this failure.
Status: Fixed. Intel recommends using the driver version embedded in the UnixWare*
7.1.1 operating system CD-ROM distribution (v. 1.3.9) as the fix for this issue.
8. NIC driver set 5.12 v.5.41.27 for Microsoft* Windows* 2000 prevents a DPC LAN connection when the operating system is loaded
