Use the
ODE CD
to troubleshoot your HP 9000 rp3410 or rp3440 server by accessing the offline diagnostic
environment (ODE).
Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE)
Use ODE to evaluate specific hardware components using a command line interface. To access ODE from your
ODE CD
, follow these steps:
Step 1.
Power on the server and insert the
ODE CD
.
Step 2.
Boot the system to the PDC prompt (BOOTADMIN, BCH, and so on). PDC prompts can differ on
some computer models.

Step 4.
Select the CD device that contains the
ODE CD
, for example:
p3
Step 5.
Boot from that device by entering boot p3:
boot p3
Step 6.
You are asked to interact with the Initial System Loader (ISL) prompt. Enter yes:
y
Step 7.
From the ISL prompt, start the Offline Diagnostics Environment by entering ODE:
