Appendix AXD Tools Test Reference 43

Video Controller Tests

The availability of video controller tests depends on the video controller installed in

the Xserve.

Test Estimated completion time Description

PCI-E 8 LinkWidth Verication 1 second Veries PCI link width is 8.

Framebuer Address as Data 2 minutes Tests the framebuer using

framebuer addresses as data.

AXD Mac OS X Tests

These tests are available if your Xserve is running AXD Mac OS X tools.

Startup Tests

These tests run automatically when you start up AXD Mac OS X tools.

SMBIOS tests check to see if bad memory was detected and mapped out at Xserve

startup. When the Xserve tests memory at start up, it automatically maps out bad

memory. Mac OS X doesn’t see this mapped out memory, so the non-SMBIOS memory

tests don’t test it. The SMBIOS test reports these mapped out DIMMS.

When an ECC error occurs, memory catches the problem and and xes it. When you

run other memory tests, the tests don’t realize an error has occurred. The ECC tests

detect these memory xes and report them.

Test Estimated completion time Description

Hardware Existence 1 second Compares a table of sensors and

fans with what is connected to

the logic board. If a sensor or

fan isn’t found, an error occurs.

All sensors, fans, and hard

drives found can be individually

tested using sensor, fan, hard

drive tests.

SMBIOS Self-Test 1 second Checks the SMBIOS tables for

32-bit errors (type 18) and 64-

bit errors (type 33). Also veries

that the mapped-in DIMM size

is appropriate for the slot it’s

inserted into. If there’s a size

mismatch, an error occurs.

ECC Error Count 1 second Reports the number of

ECC errors, and then resets

the count.
