Table 7-1: Diagnostic Tools Tool Enterprise Diagnostics LX 32 Utility What it is This utility assists in testing and verifying the operation of HP hardware. If problems are found, Diagnostics isolates failures down to a replaceable part, whenever possible. System Maintenance Menu Insight Manager 7 Survey Utility The System Maintenance Menu has the option to run the following utilities: • Setup Utility-Runs the RO M-Based Setup Utility. • ROM-Based Inspect Utility-Runs the embedded inspection utility. Use this utility to view system information and save it to a file on a diskette. • ROM-Based Diagnostic Utility- Runs the embedded ROM Diagnostic Utility. This utility includes the Memory Diagnostic, CPU Diagnostic, and Boot Disk Diagnostic tests. This client/server application remotely manages HP hardware in a network environment. It reports hardware fault conditions (both failure and prefailure) and collects data for reporting and graphing. This online information-gathering agent runs on servers, gathering critical hardware and software information from various sources. It is a utility for servers running Windows NT or NetWare. If a significant change occurs between data gathering intervals, previous information is marked, and the survey text file is overwritten to reflect the latest configuration and changes since last configuration. This process creates a historical record of change events for server hardware and software. How to run it Diagnostics and utilities are located on the system partition of the hard drive and must be accessed when a system configuration error is detected during POST. For a complete list of POST error messages, refer to the HP Servers Troubleshooting Guide. The System Maintenance Menu can be opened by pressing the F10 key at the end of system boot, just prior to the operating system loading from the hard disk.
