To Start Post Diagnostics-Method 1 - Sun Microsystems Fire V210 Administration Manual

6.4.1 To Start POST Diagnostics—Method 1
There are two methods for starting POST diagnostics. In the following procedures
both methods are described.
1. Go to the ok prompt.
2. Type:
ok setenv diag-switch? true
3. Type:
ok setenv diag-level value
Where value is either min or max depending on the desired range coverage.
4. Power cycle the server.
After you have powered the server off, wait 60 seconds before powering the server
on. POST executes after the server is powered on.
Note – Status and error messages could be displayed in the console window. If
POST detects an error, it displays an error message describing the failure.
5. When you have finished running POST, restore the value of diag-switch? to
false by typing:
ok setenv diag-switch? false
Resetting diag-switch? to false minimizes boot time.
