This chapter provides information about isolating a failing Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU).
To troubleshoot HP workstations, you must be familiar with the HP–UX operating
system. You must be able to start and stop processes. You should also be familiar
with the Boot ROM Test Mode, ISL diagnostics, and the SupportWave online tests.
For Series 700 systems, note any error or status messages, and then run the power–up
boot ROM diagnostics, known as Self Test. If the Self Test diagnostics fail, replace
the FRU that is indicated. If the tests pass but you still suspect a problem, run the ISL
diagnostics and the SupportWave online tests. Refer to the following sections for
more information about Self Test.
For a complete description on using ISL diagnostics and SupportWave, see the
Precision Architecture RISC HP 9000 Series 700 Diagnostics Manual.
