Diagnostic programs, messages, and error codes
The diagnostic programs are the primary method of testing the major components
of the server. As you run the diagnostic programs, text messages and error codes
are displayed on the screen and are saved in the test log. A diagnostic text
message or error code indicates that a problem has been detected; to determine
what action you should take as a result of a message or error code, see the table in
“Diagnostic messages” on page 138.
Running the diagnostic programs
Note: The DSA memory test might take up to 30 minutes to run. If the problem is
not a memory problem, skip the memory test.
To run the diagnostic programs, complete the following steps:
1. If the server is running, turn off the server and all attached devices.
2. Turn on all attached devices; then, turn on the server.
3. When the prompt <F2> Dynamic System Analysis is displayed, press F2.
Note: The DSA Preboot diagnostic program might appear to be unresponsive
for an unusual length of time when you start the program. This is normal
operation while the program loads. The loading process may take up to 10
minutes.
4. Optionally, select Quit to DSA to exit from the stand-alone memory diagnostic
program.
