Owner`s manual
To verify the upgraded system:
Power up the system. Self-test runs and tests all modules. If your
system has more than one Model 500 processor, the multiprocessor tests
are automatically run in self-test. See Section 6.2 and Section 6.3.
Set the system serial number on all processors. (Error messages
show that processor serial numbers have not been initialized.) See
Section 6.4. Set system parameters. As part of the preparation for
the upgrade, you issued a SHOW ALL console command (see Chapter
2). Using this listing, restore system-specific parameters such as boot
specifications, console baud rate, memory interleave, and so forth. See
Section 6.4.
Boot the VAX Diagnostic Supervisor and run the EVUCA program to
apply current ROM patches. See Section 6.5.
If the system has vector processors, run the VAX Vector Instruction
Exerciser. See Section 6.6. Otherwise, proceed to .
Record and save the new customized parameters. First make a
hardcopy record for future maintenance with the SHOW FIELD and
SHOW ALL commands. Then, if your system has a TK tape, use the
SAVE EEPROM command. See Sections 6.7 and 6.8.
Verify the system under the operating system. See Section 6.9.
