Page 16: Acceptance Testing
There are two SA100 subsystem diagnostics, ILTAPE and ILEXER: • In-Line Tape Diagnostic (ILTAPE) — A canned sequence diagnostic that tests the SA100 functions by using the basic tape commands. • In-Line Exerciser (ILEXER) — This diagnostic exercises from 1 to 10 units in any combination of disk and drives connected to an HSC.
