5.6 OOSD Tests
OOSD Tests are used to monitor and manage the performance of the hardware components of
blades. You can execute these tests only when blades are offline, that is blades are not
providing any service.
5.6.1 CPU
 CpuTempTest: Reads the Processor core(s) temperature levels and ensures that all cores
are operating in normal levels.
 CpuBurnTest : CPUBurnTest constantly cycles FPU intensive functions.The resultant
calculations are constantly checked for data integrity. If the test detects erroneous data,
the test fails.
 CacheSizeTest: Verifies L1, L2, and L3 Cache sizes of CPU(s) on the board.
5.6.2 HDD
 DiskBadBlksTest: Searches for bad blocks on a device (usually a disk partition). Device is the
special file corresponding to the device (e.g /dev/hsda1). The starting, ending block
numbers are selected in default.
 DiskCntlrTest: Verifies the random data written to disks remains unchanged. It verifies only
IDE and SCSI controllers that are associated with mounted file systems. Disk controllers
associated with read-only mounted file systems are not verified.
 DiskSelfTest: DiskSelfTest checks the electrical and mechanical performance as well as
read performance of the disk.
This test can be used to initiate short and long tests for the disk by using test arguments as
“short” and “long” respectively. The duration of the tests depends upon the size of the
hard disk being tested. For example, for a 500 GB disk, short test takes about 2 minutes and
long test may take about 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete.
