8-2 Online Server Diagnostics
www.dell.com | support.dell.com
Dell OpenManage™ Server Diagnostics is a suite of diagnostic programs that run locally on
your Dell™ PowerVault™ NAS appliance or remotely on a NAS appliance connected to the
network. You select diagnostic tests to run from a hierarchical menu that represents a NAS
appliance’s hardware. You can select tests for various parts of an appliance and run them
simultaneously or sequentially in a single session. You can view results for each individually
selected test module.
Server Diagnostics diagnoses problems on individual appliances. It does not address
problems that arise on the network level, unless the problem resides with a specific network
interface controller (NIC) on a single appliance.
