Example 5–4: VAX/DS Commands for Testing Vector Processors
DS> RUN ERKMP ! Multiprocessor Exerciser also tests
! vector processors.
DS> SET QUICK ! Abbreviated version of the VAX Vector
! Instruction Exerciser will be run.
DS> DESELECT KA1 ! Removes the second scalar/vector pair
! from testing.
DS> RUN EVKAG ! Part 1 of VAX Vector Instruction Exerciser.
DS> RUN EVKAH ! Part 2.
DS> BOOT n ! If more than one vector, make the other
DS> DESELECT KA0 ! scalar of the second scalar/vector pair
DS> SELECT KA1 ! the boot processor. Run EVKAG and EVKAH
! on the second vector.
DS> BOOT n ! Restore original boot processor.
DS> EXIT
