When you run Stand-alone Diagnostics, you will have to select the console
display. The diagnostics program displays instructions on graphics displays
and on terminals attached to the S1 serial port.
Identifying the Terminal Type to Diagnostics
When you run diagnostics, the diagnostic program must know what type of
terminal you are using. If the terminal type is not known when the Function
Selection menu is displayed, the diagnostics will not allow you to continue until
a terminal is selected from the Define Terminal option menu.
Undefined Terminal Type
If an undefined terminal type from the
Define Terminal
option menu is entered,
the menu will prompt the user to enter a valid terminal type, and the menu will
be re-displayed until a valid type is entered or the user exits from the option.
Resetting the Terminal
If the user enters a valid terminal (according to the Define Terminal option) but
it is not the correct type for the ASCII terminal being used, difficulty may be
encountered in reading the screen, using the functions keys or the enter key.
These difficulties can be bypassed by pressing Ctl-c to reset the terminal. The
screen display which results from this resetting action varies with the mode in
which the system is being run:
Online Concurrent or Maintenance Mode - the command prompt appears.
Stand-alone Mode or Online Service Mode - the terminal type will be reset
to "dumb", the diagnostics operation instruction panel will be displayed, and
the user will be required to go through the Define Terminal process again.
Running Diagnostics from a TTY Terminal
The following should be considered when running diagnostics using a tty
terminal as the console display:
Support for some tty terminals is optionally installed. If you attach a tty
terminal to a system to run diagnostics, be aware that it may not work
properly since AIX support for the terminal may not be installed.
See the operator manual provided with your terminal to find the key
sequences required to respond to the diagnostics.
When the diagnostics present display information through the S1 port,
certain attributes are used. These attributes are set as if the diagnostics
were using an IBM 3161 display terminal. The attributes for the 3161, 3164
and 3151 are listed in the
IBM RS/6000 Diagnostics Information for Multiple
Bus Systems
manual, SA38-0509.
8.2 Stand-Alone Diagnostics
Stand-alone Diagnostics provides a method of testing the system without running
AIX or without having diagnostics installed. This is useful when Online Diagnostics
are not available, when devices which are in use during the operation of AIX are to
be tested, or if the system is in a state where the Online Diagnostics cannot be run.
The Stand-alone Diagnostics are packaged on removable media. They must be
booted or mounted before they can be run. If booted, you have no access to the
AIX Error Log or to the AIX Configuration Data, but you can test all the components
