Fabric OS Commands -ports ports (V3.1.x only) dataseed (V3.1.x only) --slot number (V4.1.x only) -passcnt count (V4.1.x only) -datatype type (V4.1.x only) -ports itemlist (V4.1.x only) -seed value (V4.1.x only) Specify a set of ports to test. The data patterns are written into the ports specified and verified by reading from the ports. Specify the data pattern seed to be used. The default seed value is 0. Some data types, like BYTE_LFSR, do not require any seed value. Specify the slot number that the diagnostic will operate on. The ports specified will be relative to this slot number. The default is set to 0 and is designed to operate on fixed port count products. Specify the number of test passes to run. By default the test will be run one time. Specify the type of data pattern to use. By default, type 9, QUAD_RAMP is used. For a complete list of supported data patterns run the datatypeshow command. Some common settings are: 1 BYTE_FILL pattern. 2 WORD_FILL pattern. 3 QUAD_FILL pattern. 9 QUAD_RAMP (Addr=Data) pattern. 11 RANDOM pattern. Specify a set of ports to test. Specify a list of blade ports to test. The Ports list is translated into a matching quad list before the test is run. By default all the blade ports in the specified slot (--slot) are tested. See the itemlist help pages for further details. Specify the data pattern seed to be used. The default seed value is 0.
