For every test performed, the diagnostic utility shows the following data:
Total number of attempts
Number of successful completions
Number of failures
You can either perform all tests in succession, or perform only specific tests
specified by the preceding command-line parameters.
You can run additional diagnostics in the CLI as listed in the following table. To
determine the cna_port_inst, issue the qaucli -nic –i command as
shown in Table 2-8.
