The virtual keyswitch can be used to run full POST diagnostics without having to
modify the aforementioned properties. The standard system reset protocol bypasses
POST completely unless the virtual keyswitch or ILOM properties are set as follows:

If /SYS keyswitch_state is set to diag, the system runs POST at the next reset
using the following preset values of diagnostic properties:

/HOST/diag level=max

/HOST/diag mode=max

/HOST/diag verbosity=max

to provide thorough fault coverage. Setting /SYS keyswitch_state=diag
overrides the values of diagnostic properties but does not change them, setting the
keyswitch_state back to normal allows the system to resume using the /HOST/diag
property values

.
