The Help window has a system menu that is available from the upper-left hand corner. This system
menu allows you to minimize and maximize the Help window. The Help window also has
minimize, maximize, and close buttons in the upper right corner. The task pane of the Help
window can be resized and displays horizontal and vertical scroll bars when necessary.
The information shown in the Help window is obtained by running the HTML version of the help
through a translator. Therefore, while the content is the same, the appearance is different because
the local SMU application is not as flexible as a browser.
Most individual screens displayed in the primary information pane have Help buttons. Clicking a
Help button causes the help that is related to that screen to be displayed in the Help window, with
the Help window appearing in the foreground.
If the Help window is minimized it can only be redisplayed by pressing the <F1> key or clicking a
Help button. If the Help window is not active and the <F1>
key is pressed, the About SMU
screen is displayed in the information pane. In general, all keys described in the section on local
SMU keyboard support work for the Help window as well as the local SMU application container.
EFI Platform Diagnostic Tests
EFI Platform Diagnostic Tests allow you to quickly assess the server’s hardware status, view test
logs, and determine the server’s current configuration. You can run EFI Platform Diagnostic Tests
from within the EFI environment.
Starting the Application
Use the following steps to set up and run tests.
NOTE
You can also run this utility from the Resource CD. This causes the utility to
run in a RAM drive which means log files are volatile and will need to be
copied to writeable media if they need to be saved.
1. Boot to the EFI shell.
2. Create the following directory on the target drive such as a hard drive:
efi\service\diagnostics
3. Copy the distributed FieldDiags binary file (fielddiags.efi) to the root directory of the target.
4. Run the following command to unpack and install the FieldDiags software:
fielddiags -d \efi\service\diagnostics
