3-2 Compaq ProLiant ML530 Servers Maintenance and Service Guide Diagnostic Tools Utility Overview The Compaq Diagnostic utilities were developed to assist in diagnosing problems, testing the hardware, and monitoring and managing Compaq server hardware. Tool Compaq Diagnostics Compaq Inspect Utility Compaq Insight Manager™ Compaq Survey Utility Table 3-1 Diagnostic Tools Function A utility to assist testing and/or verifying operation of Compaq hardware. If problems are found, Compaq Diagnostics isolates failures down to a replaceable part, whenever possible. A utility that provides a report detailing system information. A client/server application used to remotely manage Compaq hardware in a network environment. Reports hardware fault conditions (both failure and pre-failure) and collects data for reporting and graphing. An online information gathering agent that runs on servers, gathering critical hardware and software information from various sources. 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 allows a historical record of change events for server hardware and software. Procedure Diagnostics and utilities are located on the system partition on the hard drive and must be accessed when a system configuration error is detected during the Power-On Self-Test (POST). Compaq Diagnostics software is also available on the Compaq SmartStart and Support Software CD. A Diagnostics diskette can be created from the SmartStart and Support Software CD. The Diagnostics utility can be run from the diskette. The Inspect utility can be run from either the main menu of the System Configuration Utility or the Compaq Diagnostics program. For more information, refer to the Compaq Management CD and the Compaq Insight Manager User Guide. More information on viewing and printing the event list can be found in the "Compaq Insight Manager" section of this chapter.
