Troubleshooting Your System

Accessing System Diagnostics

Chapter 2 45

2. Type ode [Enter] after the fs0:\> prompt to invoke ODE from

the EFI directory on the system disk. The prompt changes to fs0:\>.

Not all of the test modules are available on all systems. To see what test

modules are available to run on this system, type ls at the fs0:\>

prompt. The available modules include the following:

• siodiag – tests and veriﬁes the basic functionality of the SuperI/O

multifunction I/O chip, including serial, parallel, USB, and so forth.

• wdiag – tests and veriﬁes the functionality of the Itanium chip.

• memtest – tests and veriﬁes the memory arrays. If an error is

detected, the diagnostic reports the memory card and its slot number

that needs replacement. It also provides a map of the memory

conﬁguration so that the user can identify the type of memory and its

slot location.

• fupdate – updates the system’s Processor Dependent Code (PDC)

ﬁrmware.

• mapper – identiﬁes the conﬁguration of Itanium systems. It displays

path, identiﬁcation, and revision information of I/O components,

conﬁguration of memory controllers, processors, co-processors, cache,

and TLB, as well as processor board component revisions and values

of various Itanium system identiﬁers, revisions, and capabilities.

For further information on the various ODE commands and a complete

listing of the command set, type help [Enter] at the fs0:\> prompt or

at the prompt of one of the test modules.
