Diagnostic tests
In addition to POST, Fabric OS includes diagnostic tests to help troubleshoot the hardware and
the firmware, including tests of internal connections and circuitry, fixed media, and the transceivers
and cables in use.
Initiate diagnostic tests with the command line using a Telnet session or a terminal setup with a
serial connection to the switch. Some tests require the ports to be connected by external cables to
allow diagnostics to verify the serializer/deserializer interface, transceiver, and cable. For
information on available diagnostic tests, enter diagHelp.
All diagnostic tests are run at link speeds of 1 Gbps, 2 Gbps, 4 Gbps, and 8 Gbps.
CAUTION:
Diagnostic tests can temporarily lock the transmit and receive speed of the links during
diagnostic testing.
For information about specific diagnostic tests, see the latest version of the HP StorageWorks Fabric
OS Administrator Guide or enter help, followed by the name of the diagnostic test.
