Operation
Comment
Comment allows comments to be entered for later reference. Security level is 2.
DIag
DIag is entered to run diagnostic functions. The system responds by displaying the
following:
(diagnostics)
SElftest # (DTC Selftest)
PRint #,#,# (Print to specified port)
Internal #,#,# (Internal loopback on specified port)
EXTernal #,#,# (Loopback through hood on specified port)
Terminal #,#,# (write and read to terminal on that port)
(carriage return to exit) ?
The parameter for SElftest is DTC number. Parameters for all other tests consist of DTC
number, SIC number and port number. For example, to execute a PRint test on port 7 on
SIC 0 on DTC 2 the following would be entered: PR 2,0,7.
Security level is 0 for DTC selftest; 1 for all other diagnostic tests.
CAUTION
A DTC SElftest aborts all sessions on the DTC being tested and may result in
lost data.
DUmp
DUmp dumps the contents of memory for the port and driver to disk. When DU is entered the
system responds by displaying the following:
(dump)
Ldev #
POrt #,#,#
DTc #
(carriage return to exit) ?
Parameters are Ldev number or DTc number. For POrt the parameters are DTC, SIC and
port number. Security level is 0 for DTC dump, 1 for other functions. Ports and Ldevs are
dumped to a file with the following naming convention: TRMnnnXX.pub.sys where nnn is
the day of year and XX is two characters ranging from AA to ZZ. DTC's are dumped to a
file named as follows: SnnnnnnX.pub.sys, where nnnnnn is the 6-digit DTC address and X
ranges from A to Z. Analyzing dump contents requires specialized training and is usually
done by HP support personnel.
