About the Test Programs
– Test Log Mode: This choice determines the amount of data
to be logged after you select COM1, LPT1, ASCII, or .DBF.
The available options are LogAll or LogFail. LogAll logs all
test information. LogFail logs only failures.
– Log Message Queue: Pressing F2 allows you to examine
the test results to date via a Log Message Queue. This
information is generated whether or not you select a Test
Log. It does not, however, allow you to examine previous
Test Logs.
Ÿ Save Script :
See “Creating Test Scripts” on page 137 for a more detailed
description of scripting.
Running the Ethernet Diagnostics
You must use the Ethernet diagnostics to perform diagnostic tests
on the integrated Ethernet controller. This diagnostic diskette
includes the LANAID utility program.
Backing Up the Ethernet Diagnostic Diskette
Use an operating system command, such as the DOS DISKCOPY
command, to make a complete backup copy of the PC Server PCI
Ethernet Diagnostic Diskette. Using the backup copy can prevent
damage to the original diskette. Your operating system
documentation provides information on backing up diskettes.
Starting the Ethernet Diagnostics
To start the Ethernet Diagnostic Diskette:
1. Insert the backup copy of the Ethernet diagnostic diskette into
the diskette drive.
2. Turn on the server, or if it is already on, shut down the
operating system and restart the server.
3. At the LANAIDC prompt, enter /diags; then, press Enter.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen.
5. When diagnostics tests are complete, remove the diskette from
the diskette drive; then, restart the server.
