If the interface test is successful, a capacity test automatically runs in 24 hours. The
capacity test is delayed to allow the battery to become fully charged. Results of the
capacity test are logged in the product activity log.

Note:

Excessive testing of the battery shortens its useful life.

System Interconnect

In V5R1, the term High Speed Link (HSL) replaces the term System Interconnect (SI).
Use the information in this document about High Speed Links when working with
System Interconnect resources.

High Speed Link

High Speed Link (HSL) resources provide the connection between system I/O
busses and the system processor. HSL resources are normally configured in loops
with the system unit having an HSL controller resource that handles routing of the
data between the system processor and the system I/O busses. System I/O busses
connect to the loop with HSL I/O adapter resources. When you view the logical
resources of a High Speed Link loop using Hardware Service Manager, you will
see:
v HSL controller resource(s) (called Local High Speed Link Network Interface

Controllers (Local HSL NICs) in V5R1).

v HSL loop resource(s) (called SI rings in V4R5) under the controller listed above the

loop.

v HSL I/O adapter resource(s) (called SI I/O adapters in V4R5) under the loop listed

above the adapters.

v The System Bus Adapter Resource(s) under the HSL I/O adapter resource(s) option.

From this level and below, I/O resources appear the same way as they do in the
System bus resources option from Display Logical Resources in the Hardware Service
Manager
menu.

HSL links consist of these items:
v A port from either the controller or an adapter on the loop.
