8.4.1.2 Booting Diagnostics over the Network

To boot the

bos.diag

package from a NIM Master, you have to perform the

following steps:

1. Allocate the spot resource object to your NIM Client machine (see 9.2.7,

“Allocating Resources for the Stand-Alone Installation” on page 172)

2. Enter the following command:

smitty nim_mac_op

3. When the

Machine Object Name

screen appears, select the name that

represents your Client machine.

4. When the

Operation to Perform

screen appears, select the diag operation.

5. On the

Enable Diagnostics Boot

SMIT screen, press Enter.

6. Power-on the Client machine, and boot from the NIM Master following the steps

explained in 9.3, “Using a PCI-Based RS/6000 Server as a NIM Client” on

page 174.

7. After the Select Display appears, follow the instructions.

Running diagnostics in this mode allows you to test the same resources you could

test when booting from the Stand-alone Diagnostics CD-ROM. In addition, as with

Stand-alone Diagnostics, you will have to configure any ISA adapters you have in

your system before testing them.

Use an ASCII Terminal as Display Console

Currently (AIX Version 4.1.4), the procedure described above works only with

ASCII terminals as the console. If a graphics adapter is installed, it will not

work because of a system problem configuring the system keyboard.
