Offline Diagnostic Commands

The offline diagnostics test suite is useful for isolating faults and debugging hardware. While tests are

running, the Dell Networking OS results are saved as a text file (TestReport-SU-X.txt) in the flash

directory.
Important Points to Remember

• Offline diagnostics can only be run when the unit is offline.
• Diagnostic results are stored in a file (TestReport-SU-X.txt) in the flash directory. To review the results,

use the show file command, which prints the results to the screen.

• Diagnostics only test connectivity, not the entire data path.

The offline diagnostics commands are:

•

diag stack-unit

•

offline stack-unit

•

show diag
