Verify if Online & Offline diagnostics are installed

How can you verify if Online & Offline diagnostics are installed? We have BL860c blades with HPUX 11.31.

Thanks,

Hi,

For checking Online diag

# swlist -l bundle |grep -i diag
OnlineDiag B.11.31.01.03 HPUX 11.31 Support Tools Bundle, February 2007

Check the same with in diag directoy , it will show you if anything is installed.

Sooraj,

I did "efi_ls -d" and got error = 20. Please see below if I used the correct disk#.


# lvlnboot -v
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/disk/disk3_p2 -- Boot Disk
/dev/disk/disk2_p2 -- Boot Disk

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk3_p1/EFI
efi_ls: open device failed(errno = 20)

Thanks,

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk3_p1/EFI
efi_ls: open device failed(errno = 20)

Add a space between disk3_p1 and /EFI.

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk3_p1 /EFI

Here's what I get.

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk3_p1 /EFI

Is the diag line for the offline diags?

I did this on the other boot drive, and I got:

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk2_p1 /EFI

hp/ 6/17/2009 0
tools/ 6/17/2009 0

Does this mean offline diags is on both boot drives?

Thanks,

The diag line indicates that the directory for the off-line diagnostics exists, but it might still be empty.

Next step: look into the directory.

# efi_ls -d /dev/rdisk/disk3_p1 /EFI/diag

An empty directory. No off-line diagnostics there.

Hi MK,

Can you show me a link or procedure to install Offline Diagnostics for Itanium with HPUX 11.31?

thanks,

Download:

Go to http://software.hp.com and search with keyword "offline", or go directly to:

http://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=IPF0906

Instructions:

http://docs.hp.com/ and select "Diagnostics and Monitoring Tools", or directly to:

http://docs.hp.com/en/diag.html#3%20Offline%20Diagnostics

In other words, available through the standard Web locations for all HP-UX software and documentation downloadable from HP. Always check docs.hp.com or software.hp.com first.

hi,

1st thing, the offline diagnostics should be installed in the third partition of the disk. This is called the HPSP (HP Service Partition)

so it would be disk3_p3 for example, so this is the one you need to look at.

full details can be found in this post to copy/install and verify they are installed
