You can enable the library to automatically perform EKM Path
Diagnostics at selected intervals. During each interval, the library tests
every configured key server. The default test interval is four hours. The
library generates a RAS ticket if there are problems.
Note:
Performing Diagnostics will log off all other users of
the same or lower privileges and take your partitions
offline. When you exit Diagnostics, the partitions
automatically come back online.
Note:
The diagnostics tests may take several minutes to
complete.
