Online Service Diagnostics

Edit online

Missing Options Resolution procedure is run automatically in online service mode when Diagnostics or Advanced Diagnostics selection is made from the FUNCTION SELECTION Menu.

When booting a system in online service mode, the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Menu and the FUNCTION SELECTION Menu are displayed in phase 1 by the service mode boot script. Once a selection is made, the selection is stored in /etc/lpp/diagnostics/data/fastdiag file, and phase 2 of the boot process commences.

The Diagnostic Application that gets called due to a missing child resource, after selecting Diagnostic Routines from the FUNCTION SELECTION menu, gets a TMInput shown below: 

TMInput:

        dmode = 4               // System Verification
        date = "-s START -e NOW"// START = NOW - 24 hours.
        loopmode = 1            // Not in Loop Mode

        child1 = "child0"       // Missing Child of Resource
        state1 = 3              // State of Child is MISSING
