Add Resource to Resource List
Use this task to add resources back to the resource list.
Note: Only resources that were previously detected by the diagnostics and deleted
from the Diagnostic Test List are listed. If no resources are available to be
added, then none are listed.
AIX Shell Prompt
Note: Use this service aid in Online Service Mode only.
This service aid allows access to the AIX command line. To use this service aid, the
user must know the root password (when a root password has been established).
Note: Do not use this task to install code or to change the configuration of the
system. This task is intended to view files, configuration records, and data.
Using this service aid to change the system configuration or install code can
produce unexplained system problems after exiting the diagnostics.
Analyze Adapter Internal Log
The PCI RAID adapter has an internal log that logs information about the adapter
and the disk drives attached to the adapter. Whenever data is logged in the internal
log, the device driver copies the entries to the AIX system error log and clears the
internal log.
The Analyze Adapter Internal Log service aid analyzes these entries in the AIX
system error log. The service aid displays the errors and the associated service
actions. Entries that do not require any service actions are ignored.
Backup and Restore Media
This service aid allows verification of backup media and devices. It presents a menu
of tape and diskette devices available for testing and prompts for selecting the
desired device. It then presents a menu of available backup formats and prompts for
selecting the desired format. The supported formats are tar, backup, and cpio.
After the device and format are selected, the service aid backs up a known file to the
selected device, restores that file to /tmp, and compares the original file to the
restored file. The restored file remains in /tmp to allow for visual comparison. All
errors are reported.
