About Pc-Check (Blade Host Diagnostics)

The startup diagnostics on the blade hosts use the Pc-Check® utility. Pc-Check is a third-party diagnostic package created by Eurosoft Inc. The utility is embedded on each blade's firmware so that you have the option to run more extensive CPU, memory, and I/O startup diagnostics on the host. By default, all Pc-Check diagnostics are initially disabled.

There are two Pc-Check test modes available:

Once you set either of these Pc-Check modes, Pc-Check diagnostics will thereafter be executed whenever you power on or power cycle the blade host. You must specifically disable Pc-Check if you no longer want it to run.

Note that Pc-Check is executed only when the blade host is powered on or power cycled; it is not executed when you perform a soft reset of the host.
