Sun Netra Alarm Card Test (nalmtest)
|
nalmtest is designed to test the alarm card on Sun Netra 240 and Sun Netra 440 servers.
Note - The Sun Netra Alarm Card Test (nalmtest) was previously titled Sun Netra 240 Alarm Card Test (n240atest) in SunVTS 5.1 PS5. The reason for this change is that this test now supports the Sun Netra 440 alarm card in addition to the Sun Netra 240 alarm card.
|
|
Caution - Solaris 8 2/02 operating environment or later is required to perform the nalmtest.

nalmtest Test Modes
TABLE 25-2 nalmtest Supported Test Modes
Test Mode
|
Description
|
Connection
|
The test determines if the devices are connected to the system you are testing and verifies that they are accessible. Device functionality is not verified; however, you can safely run connection mode tests while the system is offline.
|
Functional
|
Tests fully exercise all aspects of the device through the associated device drivers. These tests use a significant portion of the system resources and assume that the device is available for testing. For this reason, the system must be offline with no other users or application running. This mode is sometimes referred to as Offline mode.
