HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2009 (Update 5 Release)

Diagnostics
Now that you have installed or updated HP-UX, you can use it to keep your system
running. The diagnostics software for HP servers helps you troubleshoot and fix
problems when a hardware failure occurs.
Online diagnostics
The online diagnostics software, which is always-installed with HP-UX 11i v3, consists
of two product bundles:
• OnlineDiag (Online Diagnostics)
• SysFaultMgmt (System Fault Management [SFM])
These bundles include many tools to help verify, troubleshoot, and monitor PA-RISC
and Itanium-based system hardware such as processors, memory, power supplies,
fans, interface cards, and mass storage devices. For more information about these
products, see the documentation at http://docs.hp.com/en/diag.html.
Offline diagnostics
The Offline Diagnostic Environment (ODE) includes a set of offline support tools that
enables you to troubleshoot a system that is running without an operating system. The
ODE tools are provided on CDs for HP Integrity systems and HP 9000 systems. You
can order the CDs at no charge or you can download the CD image and burn your own
CD.
For instructions on how to order the ODE CD (or download the CD image), see the
Administrator's and User's Guide for Offline Diagnostics (http://www.docs.hp.com/en/
diag.html). Other ODE documentation, including release notes, is available at this site
as well.
HP highly recommends that you get the latest CD and update the ODE for improved
functionality. Note that the CD-ROMs are OS independent and ordered separately
from each other and of any operating system media.
