Phase #20 Tests
SCSI Controller/Media Self-Test
SCSI Controller jMedia Self-Test
Demand
This phase resets the SCSI bus, causing the target controllers to initiate any
reset diagnostics. Basic commands are sent to the target controllers to establish
sanity and identification.
Test 1 -
checks for incorrect cabling and termination.
Test 2 -
checks for a minimum of at least one target controller.
Test 3 -
verifies that the Host Adapter ID is different from all target controller
IDs.
Test 4 -
verifies that at least one LV is associated with a target controller.
Test 5 -
verify target controller self-test commands.
240 seconds
The configuration of the SCSI bus is displayed during this phase. You must
verify that the display is correct. The diagnostics only exercise what the system
believes is associated with the SCSI system.
This phase is not run on the tape units.
