3.6.6 Accessing the Diagnostic Partition on the
Windows Server 2003 Operating System
The Windows 2003 Server operating system does not allow you to mount a
diagnostic partition. There is no way to view or gain access to the diagnostic
partition if you are running Windows on a Sun Fire X2250 server.
The only way to retrieve the contents (log files) on the diagnostic partition is to
attach a USB diskette drive to the Sun Fire X2250 server and complete the following
procedure.
1. Connect the USB diskette drive to any USB port on the Sun Fire X2250 server.
2. Insert the Tools & Drivers CD into the DVD tray.
3. Reboot the server.
4. At the Tools & Drivers CD main menu, type 3 to exit to DOS.
5. Type the following at the DOS command prompt:
6. Copy the log file to the diskette.
For example, to copy a file named noinput.jrl to the diskette, type:
The journal file is now saved to the diskette in the USB diskette drive.
