Running Tests
Note: Since the extloopback, intloopback, and pciloopback commands do not support
testing on all installed adapters, the o=3 option applies to running linlpcfg with
the script command. The o=3 option instructs lpcfg to ignore errors and
continue script execution.
Running the External Loopback Test (extloopback)
Note: Extloopback is not supported LPe16000 series FC adapters.
This command runs the external loopback test. You must put a loopback plug in each
adapter channel to be tested. You can test a specific adapter in the system. Specify the
number of times you want the test to repeat, and direct the test response if an error is
found.
The option on error choices are:

o=1 stops the test on the first error

o=2 ignores three errors and stops the test on the fourth error

o=3 ignores errors and continues the test
Note: extloopback does not support testing all installed adapters using n=all.
To run the external loopback test on LightPulse adapters, type (all on one line)
oslpcfg extloopback n=<adapter number> r=<repeat count> o=<option on
error>
Note: You must put a loopback plug in each port tested for extloopback.
To run external loopback test on OneConnect adapters, type (all on one line)
oslpcfg extLoopback n=<adapter index> p=<pattern> c=<byte count>
r=<repeat count>
where:

p = 3 to 8-HEX byte pattern

c = 1500 to 8192

r = 1 to 4096
The following example runs the external loopback test 50 times on adapter #1 and stops
the test if an error occurs:
oslpcfg extloopback n=1 r=50 o=1
