Command line syntax The Device Analysis test is available from the command line. For
more information, see Running tests (CLF) (page 91).
Test name: Device Analysis
Options: None
When to run Run this test when you want to verify that basic functions of the
device are operating properly and have not logged any critical
errors, and to verify that firmware is up to date.
Average duration < 1 minute
Other notes Test does not change the configuration of the drive or media.
Available for All devices supported by L&TT
Device Self-Test
Description This test executes the internal self-test of the device and reports any
failures. This test is useful in confirming that the device itself is
operating properly. Not all devices support an internal self-test.
NOTE: For instructions on how to perform this test, see Running
the tests (GUI) (page 40) or Running the tests (CSI) (page 73).
Command line syntax The Device Self-Test is available from the command line. For more
information, see Running tests (CLF) (page 91).
Test name: Device Self Test
Options:
• Looping Options—Specify Count based loop or Time
based loop(min). In either case, the actual value is entered
separately using the Looping value parameter.
For example, to set a time-based loop of 10 minutes:
testopt=”Looping Options:Time based loop(min)”
testopt=”Looping value:10”
• Looping value—Specify an integer greater than zero.
For example, to set a count-based loop to iterate five times:
testopt=”Looping Options:Count based loop”
testopt=”Looping value:5”
NOTE: If no options are specified, L&TT runs the test with looping
options set to Count based loop with a looping value of 1.
When to run Run this test as a quick check of the integrity of the device.
Average duration < 1 minute
Other notes Test will not overwrite any data on media present in the drive.
