correctly from the MCMaster's processor, and can only be run from the original
processor as described in the previous section.

The tests that can run from the MCMaster side are:

Test Board ID

The three DRAM tests.

Use the same commands described in the previous section to run these tests.

Command Line Switches

Some features of MMDIAG are available as optional command line switches.
To invoke one or more of them, you would start the diagnostic like this:

MMDIAG [/switch /switch...]

For example, you could run the diagnostic unattended and come back later to
test the results by typing:

MMDIAG /errexit

and then pressing the [o] key to run the tests overnight. Any command line
switch can be entered in upper or lower case. The command line switches are:

LOGFILE

Forces MMDIAG to send most of its error and status messages to a log file,
called MMDIAG.LOG. The status window will continue to display data.

LOCKON

Attempts to lock onto intermittent errors. If MMDIAG encounters an error on
one part of a test, it will repeat that test indefinitely until the [ESC] key is
pressed.

ERREXIT

This will cause MMDIAG to exit in case of errors. This is particularly helpful if
you are running the diagnostic with the logfile enabled, so that if an error occurs
the logfile

won't expand to fill up your entire disk. ERREXIT automatically

enables the logfile.
