Setting Up a Test Pattern

Enter a custom test pattern to be used in tests that transfer data. The test pattern can be

up to eight hexadecimal bytes.

Test Status

The Test Status area shows how many completed cycles of each test ran, as well as the

number of errors.

Saving the Log File

You can save the test log to a log file for later viewing or printing. When data is written

to a saved file, the data is appended at the end of the file. Each entry has a two-line

header with the adapter identifier and the date and time of the test. The data

accumulates to form a chronological history of the diagnostics performed on the

adapter.

The default location is the OneCommand Manager for VMware vCenter install

directory on your local drive.

In the VMware Server: There is no default directory for ESXi.

After writing an entry into the log, you are prompted to clear the display. Figure 9-7

shows the Diagnostic Test log entries that will be saved to the log file.
