■ Specify IGNORE_ERRORS to instruct the controller to ignore any
writeback cache errors. Such errors can result from data contained within
writeback cache that cannot be written to devices or lost data errors.
■ Specify NOIGNORE_ERRORS to instruct the controller not to run the
self-test program if writeback cache errors are detected.
IMMEDIATE_SHUTDOWN
NOIMMEDIATE_SHUTDOWN (default)

Caution: The IMMEDIATE_SHUTDOWN switch instructs the controller to
immediately shut down, without regard to any data contained within
writeback cache. Do not perform any hardware changes until the controller
flushes the cache.
■ Select IMMEDIATE_SHUTDOWN to instruct the controller to run the
self-test program immediately without flushing user data from writeback
cache to devices.
■ Select NOIMMEDIATE_SHUTDOWN to instruct the controller to flush
data from writeback cache before running the self-test program.

controller” cannot flush all data from the writeback cache, enter:
SELFTEST OTHER_CONTROLLER IGNORE_ERRORS
