Print and Disc and Verification Diagnostics
The Verification Diagnostic checks version numbers on all program
components and the Print and Disc Diagnostic tests basic operation of the
HP 3000 printer and disc sharing operations.
The following sections describe each test. At the end of these
descriptions, Table 7-1 shows the commands you enter to run the tests.
Verification Test
The Verification Test ensures that all Resource Sharing files are present
in compatible versions. If you run the test using screens, a summary of
the results is displayed on the Test Results Screen. If you run the test
with commands, a list of components and version numbers found will be
displayed on the screen. If the Verification Test results in an error,
run the test again with commands to locate the incompatible module.
The command SPECIAL RESSHR 3 can be used to report only the summary of
results.
Error messages will be displayed if there are incompatible versions.
The files and components that are checked are:
File name Module
CPDMG000.PPC.SYS data file
CDM000.PPC.SYS data file
CPDDG000.PPC.SYS data file
CRCDG000.PPC.SYS data file
QDIAG000.PPC.SYS data file

Go/No Go Test
The Go/No Go Test performs four tests to determine if the printer and
disc functions of Resource Sharing will work.
The four tests are:
* General Environment Test
* Creation and Access of Data File
* Creation and Deletion of a Directory
* Printer Test
Using commands, the status of each test is displayed on the screen when
the test is complete. Using screens, a message is displayed on the Test
Results Screen to inform you of the overall results. If any of the four
subtests fail, a message will refer you to the file DIAGLIST in your
logon group and account for a Failure Analysis Summary.
This summary shows:
* Date and time of the test
* Name of the subtest that failed
* Name of the procedure which reported the error
* Error reported
* Description of the failure
CHKDISC Test
The CHKDISC Test (also known as the Validation Test) checks and corrects
the structure and integrity of a shared disc.
NOTE CHKDISC checks only the shared disc for the group where you are
currently logged on. If you are not currently logged on to the
group containing the shared disc to be tested, log on to the
appropriate group.
CHKDISC detects and corrects the following types of shared disc
corruptions:
* Files with Multiple Directory References. The second and
subsequent directory entries pointing to the same file are
removed.
* Missing Files. Directory entries pointing to nonexistent files
are removed.
* Files without Directory Listings. Files without directory entries
are brought into the root directory by creating entries in the
form FILEnnnn.CHK, where nnnn is a sequential number starting with
0001. It also tries to fix any files that need to be merged.
CHKDISC, when run using screens, directs error information to the file
DIAGLIST. No output is shown on the screen.
When you enter commands, the status of CHKDISC is displayed on the screen
unless you direct it to DIAGLIST via a file equation.
The output from CHKDISC includes three kinds of information:
* Running Status indicates what operation CHKDISC is currently
performing.
* Error Status shows how many defects were found and lists the
pathnames of files affected. Orphan file pathnames displayed are
the ones created by CHKDISC in its adoption operations.
* Statistics list the number of files on the disc after validation
and corrections, the number of directories, the number of bytes in
data files and the number of sectors allocated.
Here's what a typical output from CHKDISC looks like:
Checking Disc \BC\PUB
Examining directory...
Examining Group and Account...
6 defects found and corrected; files affected follows:
Files with Multiple Directory References
(the following files deleted):
\MULTIREF\TEST1
\MULTIREF\TEST2
Missing Files (directory entry deleted):
\MISSING\TEST1
Orphan Files (names assigned to files):
\FILE0001.CHK
\FILE0002.CHK
\FILE0003.CHK
CHKDISC Statistics: Total number of files 22
Total number of directories 3
Total number of bytes allocated 2033
Total number of sectors used 20
CHKDISC also checks the VDROOT file to ensure that if a failure occurred
during Resource Manager Utility (RESMGR) backup/recovery, the VDROOT file
is renamed properly.
Table Utilization Test
The Table Utilization Test provides a way to monitor the system limits
you set for Resource Sharing in the CONFIG area of RESMGR. This test
displays two data tables.
The first table shows the current high, low and average uses, displaying
both the number of uses and the percent usage relative to the limits you
have configured.
The second table shows the high-water usage measured from the last reboot
of the system or the last RELEASE command issued.
NOTE The information displayed by running this test changes dynamically.
That is, the data is an indicator only of the point in time that
you run the test. If you run the test at measured intervals you'll
get a better global picture of shared disc activity on your system.
Using screens, the Table Utilization Test directs a report to DIAGLIST.
You can use a file equation to redirect the report.
When you enter commands, the test results are directed to the screen.
Here's a typical report:
