Dell EMC DIAG OS tools

This section describes how to use the Dell EMC diagnostics operating system (DIAG OS). The DIAG OS provides a suite of tools to help

diagnose issues seen on the system, or to run a health check to ensure that the hardware is operating properly.

Diagnostic tools

The DIAG OS uses standard Linux drivers and contains the following tools you can use to evaluate the health of your system. The tools are

packaged for both the DIAG OS, which is a simple OS of the same kernel version, and small rootfs to support the tools and drivers.

Topics:

• edatool

• cputool

• eepromtool

• ethtool

• fantool

• flashrom

• gpiotool

• i2ctool

• ledtool

• lpctool

• memtool

• nvramtool

• pcitool

• phytool

• pltool

• psutool

• rtctool

• storagetool

• temptool

• updatetool

• Diagnostic package

edatool

The edatool is included in the diagnostic tools. Use the tool to test the basic functionality of the system.

The edatool executes a script of simple commands, similar to commands in the CLI. Usually, the diagnostics tools run these types of

tests. The success or failure of these tools is reported, and at the end of the edatool run, reports the PASSED or FAILED results in a

standard format the test scripts can easily parse.

Tests

The edatool does not have a test command, but instead runs all the tests that are scripted.
