There are several test groups included with Server Diagnostics Mac OS X. These test
groups stop when an error occurs, and they aren’t looped.

Test group

Test selections

Default

All memory, fan, hard drive, sensor, SMC PID
sensor, and power supply tests. Ethernet
MAC address verification and ROM checksum
verification.

Quick Test

All sensor tests.

You can also export a test group to a file. By exporting a test group, you can use that
file to re-create that test group on other Server Diagnostics installations. For example,
if you install Server Diagnostics Mac OS X on several servers, you can copy the test
group file to each of them, making identical tests available without having to manually
create a new test group.

To work with test groups:
In Server Diagnostics Mac OS X, choose the options you want.
