Diagnostics programs and messages
The diagnostics programs are the primary method of testing the major components
of the server. As you run the diagnostics programs, text messages are displayed on
the screen and are saved in the test log. A diagnostics text message indicates that
a problem has been detected and provides the action you should take as a result of
the text message.
Make sure that the server has the latest version of the diagnostics programs. To
download the latest version, do the following:
