Interactive OpenBoot Diagnostics Commands

You run individual OpenBoot Diagnostics tests from the obdiag> prompt by typing:

obdiag> test n

where n represents the number associated with a particular menu item.

There are several other commands available to descriptions of these commands, see TABLE 6-11Diagnostics Test Descriptions” on page 109.

You can obtain a summary of this same information by typing help at the obdiag> prompt.

From the ok Prompt: The test and test-allCommands

You can also run OpenBoot Diagnostics tests directly from the ok prompt. To do this, type the test command, followed by the full hardware path of the device (or set of devices) to be tested. For example:

ok test /pci@x,y/SUNW,qlc@2
