/C enables execution of destructive tests. See Example 2–7 and Section 6.11
for information on the destructive tests.
/DS disables printout of the diagnostics test results. The summary report
is run, unless it is specifically disabled.
/HE halts on hard error and stops execution of tests as soon as the first
hard error is encountered. (In this context, a hard error is defined as a
recoverable, repeatable error, for example, a ROM checksum error. This
differs from a fatal error, which is an unrecoverable fault, for example,
an unexpected interrupt or exception. A fatal error is always cause for
program abortion, regardless of the state of the /HE or /LE qualifier.) The
test number is printed, and a summary indicating failure of the RBD is
printed to the console terminal. Also the RBD monitor prompt is returned.
Continue on error is the default condition, so if you want a halt on error,
you must specifically invoke it in your command line.
/HS halts on soft error and stops execution of tests as soon as the
first soft error is encountered. This qualifier works only on the
<REFERENCE>(XRP) module. (In this context, a soft error is defined as a
recoverable error that goes away after retry, for example, a corrected read
data memory error.) The test number is printed, and a summary indicating
failure of the RBD is printed to the console terminal. Also the RBD monitor
prompt is returned. Continue on soft error is the default condition, so if you
want to halt on soft error, you must specifically invoke it in your command
line.
/IE inhibits all error output, suppressing printing of RBD results. This
qualifier is used primarily for module repair, in conjunction with the /LE
or /LS qualifier. Errors are counted even when the printing is disabled.
/IS suppresses printout of RBD summary after the end of the last pass
performed by the RBD.
/LE loops on the test where the first hard error is detected. Even if the
error is intermittent, looping continues on the test indicated. To terminate
/LE, enter CTRL/C, CTRL/Z, or CTRL/Y. After entering one of these control
characters, a summary report is printed. A fatal error causes the program
to abort, regardless of the state of this qualifier.
/LS loops on the test where the first soft error is detected. This qualifier
works only on the <REFERENCE>(XRP) module. Even if the error is
intermittent, looping continues on the test indicated. To terminate /LS,
enter CTRL/C, CTRL/Z, or CTRL/Y. After entering one of these control
characters, a summary report is printed.
/P=n runs n passes of the RBD test invoked; n is a decimal number. If n is 0,
all selected tests run for an infinite number of passes. If the /P qualifier is
not used, the program defaults to one pass of the test invoked. When used
