To cause Extended Pc-Check (the 30-minute stress test) to run whenever the host is powered on or power cycled:
Log in to the ILOM web interface.
From the navigation tree, select the blade on which you want Pc-Check to run.
Select the Remote Control tab.
Select the Diagnostics tab.
The Diagnostics page appears.
From the drop-down box, select Extended.
Extended Pc-Check will run the next time you power cycle this blade's host. Thereafter, Extended Pc-Check will be executed every time the host is powered on or power cycled, until you specifically disable Pc-Check.
When the host powers on, Pc-Check will execute during the startup sequence. If any test fails, the host will not start. The failure is reported to fault management (running on the CMM), which records the fault in the event log. If Pc-Check runs without error, the host is then rebooted and BIOS POST executes as usual.
You can cause Extended Pc-Check (the 30-minute stress test) to run whenever the host is powered on or power cycled:

Change to the SP/diag subdirectory.
-> cd SP/diag
