Server Diagnostics Mac OS X Tests
These tests are available if your server is running Server Diagnostics Mac OS X.
Startup Tests
These tests run when you start up Server Diagnostics Mac OS X.
Test Estimated completion time Description
Hardware Existence 1 second Compares a table of sensors and
fans with what’s connected to
the logic board. If a sensor or
fan isn’t found, an error occurs.
Sensors, and hard drives found
can be individually tested using
sensor, hard drive tests.
SMBIOS Self-Test 1 second Checks the SMBIOS tables for
32-bit errors (type 18) and 64-
bit errors (type 33). Also veries
that the mapped-in DIMM size
is appropriate for the slot it’s
inserted into. If there’s a size
mismatch, an error occurs.
When the server tests memory
at startup, it maps out bad
memory. The SMBIOS test
reports these mapped-out
DIMMS.
