Table 46-4 saiptest Command-Line Syntax

Argument 

Description 

dev=device_name

Specifies the asynchronous serial ports of the PCI card slots tested. Since there is no default, you must type a device name--either a board(saip0-16) or an individual port (term/x000-term/x007, where x is a-p): 

osaip0 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the first card 

osaip1 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the second card 

osaip2 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the third card 

osaip3 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the fourth card 

osaip4 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the fifth card 

osaip5 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the sixth card 

osaip6 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the seventh card 

osaip7 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the eighth card 

osaip8 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the ninth card 

osaip9 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the tenth card 

osaip10 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the eleventh card 

osaip11 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the twelfth card 

osaip12 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the thirteenth card 

osaip13 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the fourteenth card 

osaip14 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the fifteenth card 

osaip15 = the 8 asynchronous serial ports in the sixteenth card 

or 

/dev/term/x00m

Where x is a-p and m is 0 to 7 (any of the asynchronous serial

ports in PCI card slots). 

M=test_mode

Specifies Internal, 25_pin_loopback, or Echo_TTY test mode. 

B=baud_rate

Sets the baud rate to 110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400; the default is 9600. 

Stop=#of_stop_bits

Toggles the number of stop bits between 1 or 2. The default is 1. 

Size=character_size

Sets the character size as an integer between 5 and 8. 

Parity=parity

Specifies the parity as none, odd, or even. The default is none. 

F=flow_control

Specifies flow control as xonoff, rtscts, or both. 

Data=test_pattern

Specifies test pattern as 0x55555555, 0xAAAAAAAA, or random. 

sp=serial_port

Specifies the terminal and asynchronous serial port number, such as term/a00n (sp=n).

tout=time_out

Specifies the number of seconds until the test times out. The default is 120 seconds. 


Note -

64-bit tests are located in the sparcv9 subdirectory: /opt/SUNWvts/bin/sparcv9/testname. If a test is not present in this directory, then it may only be available as a 32-bit test. For more information refer to "32-Bit and 64-Bit Tests".



Note -

The saiptest error messages are generated when the SunVTS Serial Asynchronous Interface discovers errors. The error descriptions that appear in the VTS interface identify probable causes for the card or test failure, and identify the Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) and recommended action, if possible. The two FRUs under test are: the Serial Asynchronous Interface card, and the patch panel with the cable attached.
