systemVerification 2 systemVerification Synopsis Runs a suite of diagnostic tests on all switches in a fabric. 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 multi-blade system. The run can be terminated by executing 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 error logs; 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 display. 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. Notes The switch must be offline for this command to run. It is important to clear the burn-in error log space before starting systemVerification by running the burninErrClear command. This ensures that all diagnostic messages created during the burn-in run will be captured in the burn-in error log. On platforms which include a security processor, you must disable the security processor by running cryptocfg --disableEE slot -eom before running systemverification. You must re-enable the security processor with the cryptocfg -enablEE slot -eom command once system verification is complete. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following operands: -parameters Invokes the diagSetCycle command before starting the burn-in run. This allows you 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.
