Display Test Patterns Service Aid

This service aid provides a means of making adjustments to system display units by
providing displayable test patterns. Through a series of menus the user selects the
display type and test pattern. After the selections are made the test pattern is dis-
played.

Enhanced SCSI Display Configuration Service Aid

This service aid allows the user to choose a SCSI device or location from a menu
and to identify a device.

The service aid also:

Generates a menu that displays all SCSI devices

Lists the device and all of it's sibling devices

Lists all SCSI adapters and their ports

Lists all SCSI devices on each port

Generic Microcode Download Service Aid

This service aid provides a means of restoring a diskette (or other media) and exe-
cuting a restored program. This program will do whatever is required to download
the microcode onto the adapter or device.

This service aid is supported in both concurrent and standalone modes from disk,
LAN, or loadable media.

When entered, this service aid displays information about what it does. It then asks
for a microcode diskette to be inserted into the diskette drive. The diskette is in
backup format. The service aid then restores the diskette to the /tmp directory and
execute a program called diagucode. Once the diagucode completes, you are then
returned to the service aid.
