Troubleshooting issues
To help you solve an issue, use the following troubleshooting solutions.
Table 1. Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
Problem Description and Solution
• A tool indicates a device as failing, but I do not believe this is
correct.
• A tool indicates a device as passing, but I do not believe this is
correct.
• If the conguration le for the particular tool was somehow
corrupted, the results may be non-deterministic or inaccurate.
Download the diagnostic package again; this ensures a clean
copy of the conguration les. Then, re-run the tool.
I need to verify the version of a specic EDA tool.
• All versions of the tools loaded from the diagnostic package are
listed in the /diag/README le. When you run edatool, the
output from the README le is output to the console and the
logfile /mnt/diag.log le.
• Any updates to tools are in the form of a new diagnostic
package, which contains the corresponding README le.
The storagetool command runs and indicates a failure, but I do
not believe this is correct.
• To run tests, the storage tool requires that you mount the
storage device. To verify that there are mounted devices, use
the mount command. If the device is mounted, the results
indicate a problem with the physical device.
