How to Use the Diagnostic Utility

The diagnostic utility is a DOS program. It can be run directly
from the ATMDisk diskette or copied, with its help file, to the
system hard drive and run from a directory of your choice.
The diagnostic utility must be run from DOS with no network
drivers loaded. Table 6-1 describes the suggested method of
accessing DOS from your network operating system (NOS).
The diagnostic utility cannot be run from an MS-DOS window.

Starting the Diagnostic Utility

To run the diagnostic utility directly from the ATMDisk diskette,
perform the following procedure:
1 Shut down all applications and processes running on the
Windows NT or NetWare system, and exit to DOS as
described in Table 6-1.
2 Insert the appropriate ATMDisk diskette in the floppy drive.
3 Change to the root directory of the floppy drive and type:
