Dell DiagOS Tools

This guide helps you use the Dell diagnostics operating system (DiagOS). The DiagOS is an environment that provides a suite of

tools that you can use to help diagnose issues seen on the system, or to run a general health check to make sure the hardware

is operating properly.

Diagnostic Tools

The DiagOS uses standard Linux drivers and contains the following tools you can use to evaluate the health of your system. The

tools are packaged for both the DiagOS, which is a simple OS of the same kernel version and small rootfs to support the tools

and drivers.

NOTE: By default, the system’s I/O modules are down. You must power up the I/O modules or the Opticstool and NPUtool

reports failures. For information about how to power up the I/O modules, see the Dell Installation Guide for your system at

http://www.dell.com/support.
