Running Diagnostics Tests

This appendix describes how to test the Sun Quad FastEthernet SBus Adapter
by creating a .usertest file for the SunDiag™ system exerciser. There is also
a section describing how to test the adapter with its FCode PROM selftest.
Note – To test the Sun Quad FastEthernet SBus Adapter on systems running
the Solaris 2.5, 2.5.1, or 2.5.1 Hardware: 4/97 operating environments, refer to
the SunVTS User's Guide that shipped with your operating system. The
SunVTS™ nettest diagnostic test automatically probes the network for hme
devices, so creating a .usertest file is not needed.

Using the SunDiag System Exerciser

The SunDiag system exerciser is an on-line diagnostic application that runs
hardware tests. It is used primarily with the OpenWindows software interface
to enable you to quickly and easily set test parameters while running tests.
Note – The SunDiag software does not probe for Sun Quad FastEthernet SBus
Adapter devices by default. For the software to acknowledge an hme<num>
channel, the .usertest file must be edited (described in "Editing the
.usertest File" on page 38) before bringing up the SunDiag exerciser.
