Environmental Test (env5test)

env5test exercises and validates the environmental subsytems of the Sunfire 280R product line. This test contains subtests to exercise a system's fans, keyswitch, LEDs, power supplies and temperature sensors.

This test is not scalable.



Note - Only the 64-bit version of this test is supported.

TABLE 16-1 env5test Options

Options

Description

Fan test

Cycles each fan bank in the system and identifies its current speed and state. Displays fault information if the state is not correct. Provides different test coverage for various types of fans based on their properties. Only enabled in Functional test mode.

Keyswitch status

Displays the current keyswitch position. Enabled in all modes.

LEDs test

Enables or disables the LEDS subtest. Default is Disable. Flashes each individual green or amber LED in the system on, then off, then back to its original state. You can select to test all LEDs (by default) or test by categories. Also specifies how long the LEDs stay on during the exercise. Only enabled in Functional test mode.

LED Type

Sets the type of LED category to be tested. Default is All.

LED hold time

Sets the number of seconds that LEDs are turned on during the LED subtest. Values are 0 to 10. Default is 0.

Power supply status

Identifies the number of power supplies in the system, the state of each one, and current (I) draw information if applicable. Displays fault information if the state of the power supply is incorrect. Enabled in all modes.

Temperature status

Identifies the current temperature of temperature sensors in the system and verifies that all temperatures are within normal operating parameters. Enabled in all modes.
