Chapter 4 – Accessing the Monitor Utility
Using the Monitor Utility
Once a connection has been set up between ACS-8990 and the host computer, first make
sure ACS-8990 is turned on.
When ACS-8990 boots up, it enters Self-Diagnostic Mode and runs diagnostic tests. The first
test covers the CPU and supporting core logic chips, the internal bus, memory, SCSI
controller, Serial ATA controllers, and RS-232 controllers. The second diagnostic test checks
for the presence of disks on each individual disk channel and the functionality of each disk
found. The final diagnostic test checks RAID functionality.
The messages shown on the right will display
as ACS-8990 runs through the tests. When
complete, ACS-8990 will enter Operation
Mode and the Monitor Utility window will
show.
