Run a Diagnostic Test

Diagnostic tests can help identify issues with the library or components, and verify the installation. Diagnostic tests are typically run by Oracle service personnel.

Note:

You should run diagnostic tests that move tapes one at a time, otherwise a conflict could terminate one or both of the tests.
  1. Click Diagnostics in the left navigation area of the GUI.
  2. Check to see if the diagnostic test you plan to run is disruptive. Before running a disruptive test, stop any host operations and take the library offline.
  3. Select a diagnostic test from the list, and then click Run Run selected test icon.

    Note:

    If Run is grayed-out Run icon grayed-out, you must take the library offline before running the test.

  4. Enter the values for the test, and then click Ok.
  5. To view the progress of the test, click the Diagnostics Results tab.

    For detailed test information, select the diagnostic in the list, and then from the Actions drop-down (or right-click menu), select Request Details. Click the Output Messages tab.
