NOTE

Using Offline Diagnostic Tools

There are three offline Diagnostic tools you can use to troubleshoot your hp Integrity rx1600 Server:
• E-DiagTools-available on the IPF Offline Diagnostics and Utilities CD and the HP Service partition.
NOTE For machines using HP-UX the HP service partition is not available and the IPF Offline Diagnostics and
Utilities CD must be used.
• Offline Diagnostic environment (ODE)—available on theIPF Offline Diagnostics and Utilities CD.
• Management Processor (MP) card event logs-available by logging on to the management processor interface.

E-DiagTools

E-DiagTools is used to evaluate the hardware problems of your HP Server. To access E-DiagTools, perform the following:
Step 1. Power on your HP Server and insert the IPF Offline Diagnostics and Utilities CD into the DVD-ROM tray.
Step 2. Do not permit the server to boot into an Operating System and at the EFI Boot Manager, select EFI Shell.
Step 3. Determine the file system that represents the CD and enter the appropriate command to access the CD.
Step 4. After accessing the CD diagnostic menu, launch "e-DiagTools for IPF" and run the Basic and Advanced tests
according to the menus.

Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE)

ODE is used to evaluate specific hardware components via a Command Line Interface. To access ODE, perform the following:
Step 1. Power on your HP Server and insert the IPF Offline Diagnostics and Utilities CD into the DVD-ROM tray.
Step 2. Do not permit the server to boot into an Operating System and at the EFI Boot Manager, select EFI Shell.
Step 3. Determine the file system that represents the CD and enter the appropriate command to access the CD.
Step 4. After accessing the CD diagnostic menu, launch ODE.

Ignore references to the SupportPlus Media in the Support Plus: Diagnostics User's Guide,
Chapter 3: they do not apply to the hp Integrity rx1600 Server system. However, the conceptual
and procedural information still applies to IPF systems. Any discrepancies have been noted and
explained in the Support Plus: Diagnostics User's Guide, and elsewhere, as appropriate.
