systemVerification 2 systemVerification Runs a suite of diagnostic tests on all switches in a fabric. Synopsis systemverification [-parameters | -short][[-fru type] -unit id] Description Use this command to run a comprehensive, system-wide test of all switches in a system. The command initiates a burn-in run on all switches within the current system. The optional -fru and -unit parameters allow you to focus the testing to a single blade in a multiblade system. The run can be terminated by issuing a Ctrl-C from the initiating terminal. All of the burn-in features are operational during the systemVerification command. The burninErrShow displays the stored burn-in errlogs; the logs by blade are saved in /var/log/verify.slot files. On fixed-port-count products, the slot defaults to 0. The command monitors the testing and terminates the burn-in activity if all the elements fail. Each failing slot only outputs the first observed failure. Because this monitoring is a polling activity, the command number output might not be the exact command number that failed. After the testing terminates, the burninStatus command output displays, and the burninErrShow messages for the failing slots displays. If all slots pass, then only the burninStatus command output displays. The burn-in tests are designed to operate with switches connected to a fabric and restrict the frame loopback to inside the unit. If loopback plugs are installed in all ports, the burn-in parameter min_lb_mode can be changed to 1 to test the Fibre Channel through the loopback plug. The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Operands This command has the following options: -parameters Invokes the diagSetCycle command before starting the burn-in run. This allows users to modify the burn-in parameters prior to the run. These diagSetCycle parameters are copied to all switches in the system and override the original settings in the database. If the diagSetCycle parameters are not specified, the run uses the previously stored values. This option does not perform a burninErrClear operation prior to starting the testing operation. -short Sets the burn-in parameters that control the number of frames to 1. The primary use for this command is software regression testing, or quick validation that all hardware is operational. The shorter test cycle does not have enough test time to detect intermittent errors. This option performs a burninErrClear operation prior to starting the testing operation. -fru type Use to focus testing on a single FRU in the system. The valid options for type are BLADE, PS, FAN, and WWN; however, only BLADE is supported at this time. Since only one FRU type is supported, this parameter is optional, but -unit is required for single FRU testing. -unit id Use to focus testing on a single FRU in the system. The id for a FRU type of BLADE correlates to the slot number of the FRU to be tested. Diagnostics Each diagnostic test in this suit might report its own set of error messages when it detects failure(s). Refer to the Diagnostics section of individual diagnostic test help pages. These messages are available only in the log file. Refer to the Fabric OS Message Reference for more information. Fabric OS Command Reference Manual 695 53-1000436-01
