Running Diagnostic Tests
Displaying Expand-over-FOX line-handler process information is explained in the
Expand Configuration and Management Manual.
Running SCF Remotely
Because the view of a FOX ring can change significantly from one FOX cluster to
another, you should gather data at each cluster and compare the information using
SCF. You can do this by logging onto a remote TACL and then running SCF at the
remote cluster.
Displaying ServerNet/FX Adapter Subsystem Information
The Subsystem Control Facility (SCF), the HP Open System Management (OSM)
software, and the Compaq TSM client software provide commands that display status,
statistics, and general information about ServerNet/FX adapter subsystem components
on NonStop S-series systems running the G-series NonStop Kernel operating system.
OSM is the system management tool of choice for NonStop S-series servers. OSM
offers a browse-based interface that improves scalability and performance, and
overcomes other limitations that exist in TSM. .
Note. The HP Tandem Maintenance and Diagnostic Subsystem (TMDS) is provided instead of
OSM or TSM client software on NonStop systems running the D-series NonStop Kernel
operating system. You can use TMDS remotely by logging onto a remote TACL and then
running TMDS at the remote cluster.
