Command Line Options (Netfinity 7000 - 8651)

Command Line Options

The Command Line Options allow you to define specific conditions for running the diagnostic programs from the DOS command line or at startup time.

At the operating system prompt, type t xxxx yyyy (where xxx represents a test and yyyy is a flag.)

The test can be identified either by the module name or by it's position in the .PKG file, for example:

Module Name	Description
Floppy	Run all enabled sub-tests in the floppy test module.
Floppy.1	Run the first sub-test of the floppy test module, if enabled.
1-5	Run all enabled sub-tests of the first 5 test modules, in the .PKG file.

A command line option can contain the following flags:

Option	Description
/?	Prints the contents of the help file.
/AUTO (filename)	Configures the test menu based on the hardware detected in the system. The system saves the configuration in the file name you provide.
/CF (filename)	Specifies the configuration file to use.
/DT (nn)	Displays all sub-tests. If the sub-test is enabled, a + displays next to the sub-test. If disabled, a - displays next to the sub- test. nn is the number of lines to display. Press Enter to display the next screen of sub-tests.
/GROUP (chars)	Runs the sub-tests that have the character string that you specify.
/HOURS (nn.n)	Defines the length of time to continue testing.
/N (n)	Defines the number of times the test will loop.
/OVER	Overrides the disable flag on each sub-test loop.
/PC (product code)	Provides the diagnostics program product code.
/PKG (filename)	Processes the file name you provide instead of the default, T.PKG
/Q	No output to screen during testing.
/SAVE (filename)	Saves the configuration to the file name you provide.
/SELF (filename)	Configures the test menu based on the hardware detected in the system and saves it to the file name you provide.
/SHUFFLE (nn)	Shuffles the run-list on each pass. nn is the number of passes.
