SunDiag Main Window

To start the SunDiag exerciser, change directories to the SunDiag bin directory (/opt/SUNWdiag/bin) and then type sundiag. After you type the sundiag command, the main SunDiag window is displayed on your screen (see Figure D-1). This window is the primary interface for running the SunDiag system exerciser. Refer to the SunDiag User's Guide, which was shipped with the Solaris 2.4 operating environment, for more information about using this window.

The SunDiag main window is divided into four small windows:

• The system status window at the upper-left of the screen displays the status of the tests.

• The performance monitor panel in the upper-middle of the screen displays the performance statistics for the system that is being tested.

• The control panel is located at the right. The panel includes buttons, exclusive choice, toggle, and pop-up menus that allow you to select test parameters and options.

• The console window at the bottom-left displays test messages, and allows you, as a superuser, to use operating system commands.
