Enable PC-Check to Run at Boot (Web)

Before You Begin

  • To diagnose Oracle x86 system hardware issues, you need the Reset and Host Control (r) role enabled.

  • If you choose to run diagnostics in Manual mode, or if you want to monitor the progress of diagnostic tests in Enabled or Extended mode, do one of the following:

    • Start a host console redirection.

    • Set up a serial console.

    • Connect a keyboard, video, and mouse to your system.


    Note -  Alternatively, if you chose to run diagnostics in Enabled or Extended mode, the test output files are available for viewing by Oracle Service in Snapshot.
  1. From the Oracle ILOM web interface, click Host Management > Diagnostics.

    The Diagnostics page appears.

  2. In the Run Diagnostics on Boot list box, select the level of diagnostics you want to run.

    For details about the diagnostic levels, see Selecting a Diagnostic Test Level.

  3. Click Save.
  4. Power cycle the server:
    1. Click Host Management > Power Control.

      The Server Power Control page appears.

    2. In the Select Action list box, select Power Cycle, and then click Save.

      If you initiated a redirection session, the redirected display will initially show the host startup messages, and then it shows the progress of the diagnostic tests.

    3. If a license agreement appears, click Enter to continue.
  5. If you chose to run diagnostics in Manual mode, select Show Results Summary in the PC-Check menu to view the output files.
  6. Return the server to normal operation mode by setting the Run Diagnostics on Boot property to Disabled.
