If you are unable to fix the problem yourself, service and support personnel can use the diagnostics results to help you solve the problem.
Menu Description Results Displays the results of all tests that are executed. System Health Provides the current overview of the system performance. Event Log Displays a time-stamped log of the results of all tests run on the system. This is displayed if at least one event description is recorded.
