To run the PCI loopback test, type (all on one line)

oslpcfg pciloopback n=<all/adapter number> r=<repeat count>

o=<option on error>

The following example runs the PCI loopback test 100 times on all adapters in the

system and stops the testing if any errors occurs.

oslpcfg pciloopback n=<adapter_number> r=100 o=1

Running the DMATest

This command runs the DMA test, which is a direct memory access test of the memory

on the adapter. You can run the test on a specific adapter in the system and specify the

number of times you want the test to repeat.

Notes:

DMATest does not support testing all installed adapters using n=all.

Do not use the DMA test on Emulex blade adapters.

To run the DMA test, type (all on one line)

oslpcfg dmatest <n=adapter> <p=pattern> <c=byte-count>

<r=repeat-count>

The following example runs the DMA test two times on adapter #1:

oslpcfg dmatest n=1 p=abcde c=1500 r=2

Using Script Files

Creating Script Files

You can group commands together and run them using a script file. You can also enter

comment lines, which begin with a semicolon. Each line follows the same command

syntax as those documented in this manual. Using the offline utility, you can

Run commands entered in a script file. Use the @ command to run the script file.

Run commands multiple times. Add the repeat command as the last line of the

script file.

Create a log of test results. Add the logfile command as the first line of the script

file.

To run a script file type:

oslpcfg @<scriptname.txt>

The following example runs the script “script1.txt” that resides in the current directory

and executes all the commands in that script file.

oslpcfg @script1.txt

Note: To interrupt and stop any script, press <S> on the keyboard.
