Verifying an installed feature or replaced part on a system or logical
partition using Virtual I/O Server tools
If you installed feature or replaced a part, you might want to use the tools in Virtual I/O Server (VIOS)
to verify that the feature or part is recognized by the system or logical partition.
To verify the operation of a newly installed feature or replacement part, select the appropriate procedure:
v Verify the installed feature using VIOS
v Verifying the replaced part using VIOS
Verify the installed feature using VIOS:
1. Log in as root user.
2. At the command line, type diagmenu and press Enter.
3. Select Advanced Diagnostics Routines and press Enter.
4. From the Diagnostic Mode Selection menu, select System Verification and press Enter.
5. When the Advanced Diagnostic Selection menu appears, do one of the following:
v To test a single resource, select the resource that you just installed from the list of resources and
press Enter.
v To test all the resources available to the operating system, select All Resources and press Enter.
6. Select Commit, and wait until the diagnostic programs run to completion, responding to any prompts
that appear.
7. Did the diagnostics run to completion and display the message No trouble was found?
v No: If a service request number (SRN) or other reference code is displayed, suspect a loose adapter
or cable connection. Review the installation procedures to ensure that the new feature is installed
correctly. If you cannot correct the problem, collect all SRNs or any other reference code
information that you see. If the system is running in LPAR mode, note the logical partition in
which you installed the feature. Contact your service provider for assistance.
v Yes: The new device is installed correctly. Exit the diagnostic programs and return the system to
normal operations.
