2.3.2 START Command
The RBD monitor START command invokes a specific RBD
program. It takes an argument indicating the RBD program
to be run, and can take any of 13 qualifiers.
Example 2–2: START Command
>>> T/R ! Command to enter RBD monitor program.
RBD3> ! RBD monitor prompt, where 3 is the hexa-
! decimal node number of the processor
! that is currently receiving your input.
RBD3> ST2/TR E ! Runs the default XBI tests, testing the
! <REFERENCE>(xbi_plus) at <REFERENCE>(XMI) node number E. Test results
! are written to the console terminal.
RBD3> ST1/HE/IE/BE ! Runs the CPU/memory interaction RBD, halting
! on the first error encountered, inhibiting
! error output, ringing the bell when the
! first error is encountered.
The START command syntax is:
STn[/qualifier] [parameter]
where:
• n is the RBD to be run (see Table 2–4 and Table 2–5).
• [/qualifier] is one of those listed in Section 2.3.3.
• [parameter] is a program-specific value used in RBD 2 or RBD 3. (For
the meaning of this parameter in RBD 2, see Section 7.4, and in RBD
3, see Section 6.11.)
