Running DIGITAL Vendor Extended Tests

To run DIGITAL Vendor Extended Tests from a diskette:
1. Insert the DIGITAL Vendor Extended Tests diskette for the selected device
and then boot the server or type
A:\DMENU.
2. Select the desired test.
Each diskette has a README.TXT file with a list of devices that can be tested and
additional information about each diagnostic.

Running Diagnostics Tests from the Hard Disk Drive

To run diagnostic tests from the server's hard disk drive, perform the following:
1. Boot the system and select MS-DOS from the Boot menu.
2. At the C:\> prompt, type:
\DIAG\DIAGNOSE.BAT
This sets up the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files to run the
diagnostics and reboots the server. Select MS-DOS again, then the
diagnostics will load. Note that the original CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT are restored before the diagnostics load.
3. Select the test or group of tests using the arrow keys and function keys
previously defined. DIGITAL Vendor Extended Tests can also be run from
the User menu.
