For every test performed, the diagnostic utility shows the following data:
 Total number of attempts
 Number of successful completions
 Number of failures
You can either perform all tests in succession or perform only specific tests
specified by the preceding command-line parameters.
You can run additional diagnostics in the CLI as listed in the following table. To
determine the cna_port_inst, issue the qaucli -nic –i command as
shown in Table 3-8.
-nL
--noIntLP
No internal loopback test (combine –D or –a)
-nH
--noHw
No hardware test (combine –D or –a)
-nS
--noLinkSt

Loopback
qaucli -nic -extloopback <cna_port_inst> <tests_num> <on_error>
where <tests_num> specifies the number of tests, 1–65535, and <on_error> is
either 0=Ignore or 1=Abort.
NOTE:
This test requires a pass-through module to be configured for both ports. Test runs
between two ports. Single port loopback is not supported
.
Flash qaucli –nic –testflash [cna_port_inst]
Hardware qaucli –nic –testhw [cna_port_inst]
Internal
Loopback
qaucli -nic -intloopback <cna_port_inst> <tests_num> <on_error>
where <tests_num> specifies the number of tests, 1–65535, and <on_error> is
either 0=Ignore or 1=Abort.
Interrupt qaucli –nic –testinterrupt [cna_port_inst]
