8.2.2 Running Stand-Alone Diagnostics in Concurrent Mode

There might be a situation where Online Diagnostics is not available, but you have
access to the Stand-alone Diagnostics CD-ROM. To keep the system available to
the users, however, you don't want to reboot and run the diagnostics programs in
Service mode. In this case, you can mount the CD-ROM and run diagnostics
concurrently. The procedure for this is explained as follows:

1. From the command line, type:

diag

2. If you already have a CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive, unmount any filesystems

on the CD-ROM, and remove the CD-ROM.

3. You will be asked whether you want to run diagnostics from CD-ROM. Answer

y

.

4. Insert the CD-ROM.

5. Press Enter if you want to use the default CD-ROM drive. If you are using a

CD-ROM which is not the default, enter its name.

Diagnostics will then mount the CD-ROM, and you can access diagnostics as if
they were loaded on your system. When you exit diagnostics from the CD-ROM,
the CD-ROM will be unmounted automatically.
