TermDSM is a command-based utility program which allows you
to monitor and troubleshoot the DTS. It is set up so that you can
monitor the condition of a single device or an entire DTC.
TermDSM provides several specific functions. Some commands
provide only information, such as a listing of all the DTCs associated
with the system or the internal configuration information of any
DTC. If problems are suspected, TermDSM can be used to test any
DTC and its connections to devices.
If a problem is complex enough that the state of the port
and/or the DTC subsystem needs to be looked at by an HP support
representative, the subsystem information can be copied to a disk
file and sent to Hewlett-Packard.
If it is determined that a device's connection is
unusable, TermDSM is capable of aborting the session on the port
so that a new session can be started on the device. This is also
true if the connections of several devices are unusable or if all
of the connections of the devices of a DTC are unusable.
