Platform Confidence Test The Platform Confidence Test (PCT) diagnostic utility is included on the Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Server Deployment Toolkit CD. It probes for the hardware at the start of each test and reports the identified components. In this way, the PCT indirectly identifies many assembly and cabling errors (broken or improperly seated cables) when installed components are not reported. The test displays results for field replaceable units, such as the processor modules, the server board, drives, and memory. Three Platform Confidence Tests (PCT) are available. The duration of each test depends on the number of processors and the amount of memory installed. On completion of each test and after the test results are displayed, the program returns to the main menu.
