Kernel Tests
Note: All kernel tests and some multiprocessor tests are common to more than one
processor. Therefore, the processor must be specified with a parameter. The pos-
sible processors are as follows:
Parameter Processor
0
-
All processors
3
-
Controller card
4
-
Buffer card
6
-
Interface card
The default processor is 0, all processors. With all pmcessors selected, each
processor which has the test defined will start the test. The tests start with the inter-
face card and end with the controller card.
Diagnostic Test
40
(Microprocessor Operation Test)
Parameter A
=
0, 3,4, or 6.
A functional check of the microprocessor is performed.
Diagnostic Test 41 (Read-Only Storage Test)
Parameter A
=
0, 3, 4, or 6.
A verification of the read-only storage is done.
Diagnostic Test 42 (Direct-Access Storage Test)
Parameter A
=
0, 3,4, or 6.
The direct-access storage that is not battery powered is tested, checking for accept-
able data and saved data. The test ensures that writing to one location has no affect
on other locations. This test will only run at power on.
Diagnostic Test 43 (Battery Powered Direct-Access Storage Test)
Parameter A = 0, 3,4, or 6.
The battery powered direct-access storage is tested, checking for acceptable data
and saved data. The test does not destroy data. This test is used at power on for
battery powered storage and while running the power-on test sequence for all
storage areas.
Diagnostic Test 44 (Complete Direct-Access Storage Test)
Parameter A = 0, 3,4, or 6.
The direct-access storage is fully tested for acceptable data and saved data. The
test also ensures that no storage modules affect other storage modules. This test
does not destroy data and may be used without powering the drive on and off, but it
needs a long time to run.
