Allow User Queries (WARNING: Not Allowing Queries May Cause Data Loss)
If you want to interact with a specified tool, instead of using the tool's default information values, put an
"x" in this checkbox; then hit "OK".
WARNING: When you disable the "Allow User Queries" function, some tools will perform
DESTRUCTIVE tests. This means that ALL DATA on unmounted disks WILL BE DESTROYED. The
ability to disable this function is intended for manufacturing purposes only. It is highly recommended that
you use the "Allow User Queries" function, and DO NOT DISABLE IT.

Verify Options
Use this function to configure the options which will be used for subsequently executing verify tools,
including:
Controlling execution time/loop limits
Defining behavior on error detection
Defining test coverage
Defining the contents of the Act Log
Allowing/disallowing user queries
Execution Control
You can control execution of future diagnose commands with the three checkboxes associated with this
heading:
Iterations to Loop -- number of times to repeat diagnose procedure
Execution Time Limit, in Minutes -- how long (in minutes) to run test
Loop Continuously -- repeat diagnose procedure until it is halted or aborted
Iterations to Loop
Put an "x" in this checkbox if you want to define the number of times the diagnose test procedure is to be
repeated before it halts.
Execution Time Limit, in Minutes
Put an "x" in this checkbox if you want to define the length of time the diagnose test procedure is to run
(in minutes), before it halts.
Loop Continuously
Put an "x" in this checkbox if you want the diagnose test procedure to repeat until you halt or abort it.
Behavior on Errors
Using the checkboxes associated with this heading, you can define the way in which you want a specified
tool to behave on encountering a "soft" error; e.g., a recoverable read error (hard errors, by contrast, cause
the tool to create a failure log and exit, no matter how this option is set).
