8.5 Initial Diagnosis of the SPARC M12-2S to be Added


8.5 Initial Diagnosis of the SPARC M12-2S to be Added
Here, an initial diagnosis is performed on the added SPARC M12-2S.
Note - For system-stopped expansion, perform the procedure in "6.7 Performing a Diagnosis Test," not this procedure.
  1. Execute the testsb command to perform a diagnosis on the hardware.
    For XX-Y, specify the PSB number of the diagnosis target. XX=BB-ID and Y=0 are the fixed settings.
    An initial diagnosis of the PSB that is the diagnosis target and confirmation of connected I/O are performed.
  1. <‌Description of options specified>‌
    -v: Displays the detailed message of the hardware diagnosis.

    -p: Displays the storage connected to SPARC M12-2S.

    -s: Displays the device tree.

    -y: Automatically responds with "y".
XSCF> testsb -v -p -s -y XX-Y
  1. The following example performs a diagnosis for the added BB#01.
XSCF> testsb -v -p -s -y 01-0
Initial diagnosis is about to start, Continue?[y|n] :y
PSB#01-0 power on sequence started.
  1. For a command display example and a check of the results, see "6.7 Performing a Diagnosis Test."
  1. Perform a diagnosis to check whether there is any connection error in the connected cables.
  1. Execute the diagxbu command to check the cables.

    -b: XX specifies the added BB-ID.

    -p: YY specifies the PPAR-ID of the incorporation destination.

    -t: YY specifies the BB-ID of every SPARC M12-2S contained in the PPAR of the incorporation destination.
(1) The PPAR that is the incorporation destination is running (active expansion)
XSCF> diagxbu -y -b xx -p yy
In the following example, a diagnosis is performed between the added BB#1 and the PPAR#0 of the incorporation destination.
XSCF> diagxbu -y -b 01 -p 00
XBU diagnosis is about to start, Continue?[y|n] :y

Please confirm the error of XBU by "showlogs error".
In addition, please confirm the degraded of XBU by "showstatus".
(2) The PPAR that is the incorporation destination is stopped (inactive expansion)
XSCF> diagxbu -y -b 03 -t 01 -t 02
In the following example, a diagnosis is performed on the added BB#03 and on BB#01 and BB#02 contained in PPAR#1, which is the incorporation destination.
