ODE and IOMAP are utilities that are located in the ISL boot directory of a 900 Series HP 3000 computer system. They can be launched only from ISL, which indicates that the system is down. You must run ODE on 9X8LX and 9X8RX systems. You can run IOMAP on all other systems.

When running with default options, IOMAP and ODE running MAPPER perform the following operations:

  • displays the current configuration of the processor, including the presence of coprocessor boards, analyzer cards, memory sizes of cache and translation look-aside buffer (TLB) cards, the processor model number, and the processor-dependent code (PDC) firmware revision

  • checks all possible I/O paths to determine if a component is present, and identifies every component (such as a module, bus converter, adapter, device, or unit)

  • displays a table showing all configured components

  • performs self-test and/or loopback tests on all components with self-test and/or loopback capabilities

  • does not test any devices (terminals, data communication lines, or other serial devices) connected to external ports of the terminal multiplexer

The test modes of IOMAP include identify-test, loopback test, and self-test. Identify-test attempts to identify each component in every I/O path or specified path. The information received includes I/O path to the component, component name, component ID number, firmware revision (if applicable), hardware revision (if applicable), and an indication of which test modes are available for the component.

The loopback test performs component-dependent loopback tests where feasible. The result of this test is reported as pass, fail, unimplemented, or untestable.

The self-test initiates the internal self-test of each component that has a self-test routine. The result of this test is reported as pass, fail, unimplemented, or untestable.

Running IOMAP

NOTE: For 9X8LX and 9X8RX systems, you must run ODE instead of IOMAP. Refer to Running ODE later in this chapter.

To run IOMAP:

  1. Remove all users from the system.

    If your system is not currently in use, skip to step 2.

    1. Log on at the system console as MANAGER.SYS. Enter:

         :HELLO MANAGER[/userpass].SYS[/acctpass] 
      
    2. Tell users of the approaching shutdown.

      Notice that entering ISL makes the system inaccessible to users. Use the TELL command to alert users (except those in quiet mode) to the impending system shutdown. Ten minutes beforehand, ask users to log off. Enter:

         :TELL @S;SYSTEM SHUTDOWN IN 10 MIN. PLEASE LOG OFF. 
      
    3. Prevent new system activity. Enter:

         :LIMIT 0,0 
      
      
      
         :JOBFENCE 14 
      

      The command LIMIT 0,0 limits the number of concurrently running jobs and sessions. The two parameters x, x define the allowed number of jobs and sessions, respectively.

      The command JOBFENCE defines the minimum input priority that a job or session must have to execute. The parameter, 14, raises the jobfence to the highest level.

    4. Warn users five minutes prior to the system shutdown to end their sessions. Use the WARN command to alert all sessions (including those in quiet mode) to the shutdown. Enter:

         :WARN @S; SYSTEM LOSS IN 5 MIN.  PLEASE LOG OFF. 
      
    5. Locate all jobs and sessions still in progress or scheduled. Enter:

         :SHOWJOB JOB=@J 
      
      
      
         :SHOWJOB JOB=@S 
      

      The command SHOWJOB displays the status information about jobs or sessions.

    6. Abort jobs and sessions still executing. Enter:

      :ABORTJOB #Jnnn  (#Jnnn is the number for each job) 
      
      
      
      :ABORTJOB #Snnn  (#Snnn is the number for each session)
      
  2. Reset the system. Enter:

       :CTRL A 
    
    
    
       =SHUTDOWN 
    
  3. Once the system issues the final shutdown message:

       Shutdown of operating system complete.  (Shut 6)
    

    Enter:

       :CTRL B 
    
    
    
       CM> RS 
    

    Reset messages appear at the console while the system runs its self-test.

    If autoboot is enabled on your system, interrupt it so that you receive the ISL prompt (ISL>). Refer to Chapter 3 “System Startup Functions” for information on interrupting an autoboot sequence.

  4. Enter the ISL IOMAP command at the ISL prompt.

    Enter:

       ISL>IOMAP 
    
  5. The system responds:

   IOMAP Revision A.01.63 July 23, 1993  



   IOMAP Running:  ce81 



   This program has the capability to identify the configuration of 

   the system and its I/O paths and devices.  Many of the components of 

   the I/O system can be tested with selftest and loopback diagnostics. 



   Without changing any parameters, this program will map all existing 

   I/O components in the system, but will not perform any other diagnostics. 



   If loopback test is selected, be sure the loopback test hood is plugged

   onto HPPB GPIO card, so that external loopback on the card is possible.

   If sefltest or loopback test is selected for a LAN card, be sure the

   T-connector is plugged onto the card.  If selftest is selected for a

   device with removable media, make sure that is media in the device.



   You may enter break mode by pressing control-C or control-Y. 



   You may press control-X to erase what you just typed in.

IOMAP Exiting. 

This IOMAP is from a Series 925 system. The paths and other information may vary, depending on the system and configuration.

Exiting IOMAP

After running IOMAP a prompt appears at the end of the listing:

   Do you want to exit this program and return to ISL?

Answer YES to this question to exit IOMAP. Answering NO returns you to the following prompt:

   Do you wish to modify any program parameters?

Running ODE

To run ODE :

  1. Remove all users from the system.

    If your system is not currently in use, skip to step 2.

    1. Log on at the system console as MANAGER.SYS. Enter:

         :HELLO MANAGER[/userpass].SYS[/acctpass] 
      
    2. Tell users of the approaching shutdown.

      Notice that entering ISL makes the system inaccessible to users. Use the TELL command to alert users (except those in quiet mode) to the impending system shutdown. Ten minutes beforehand, ask users to log off. Enter:

         :TELL @S;SYSTEM SHUTDOWN IN 10 MIN. PLEASE LOG OFF. 
      
    3. Prevent new system activity. Enter:

         :LIMIT 0,0 
      
      
      
         :JOBFENCE 14 
      

      The command LIMIT 0,0 limits the number of concurrently running jobs and sessions. The two parameters x, x define the allowed number of jobs and sessions, respectively.

      The command JOBFENCE defines the minimum input priority that a job or session must have to execute. The parameter, 14, raises the jobfence to the highest level.

    4. Warn users five minutes prior to the system shutdown to end their sessions. Use the WARN command to alert all sessions (including those in quiet mode) to the shutdown. Enter:

         :WARN @S; SYSTEM LOSS IN 5 MIN.  PLEASE LOG OFF. 
      
    5. Locate all jobs and sessions still in progress or scheduled. Enter:

         :SHOWJOB JOB=@J 
      
      
      
         :SHOWJOB JOB=@S 
      

      The command SHOWJOB displays the status information about jobs or sessions.

    6. Abort jobs and sessions still executing. Enter:

      :ABORTJOB #Jnnn  (#Jnnn is the number for each job) 
      
      
      
      :ABORTJOB #Snnn  (#Snnn is the number for each session)
      
  2. Reset the system. Enter:

       :CTRL A 
    
    
    
       =SHUTDOWN 
    
  3. Once the system issues the final shutdown message:

       Shutdown of operating system complete.  (Shut 6)
    

    Enter:

       :CTRL B 
    
    
    
       CM> SP 
    

    Reset messages appear at the console while the system runs its self-test.

    If autoboot is enabled on your system, interrupt it so that you receive the ISL prompt (ISL>). Refer to Chapter 3 “System Startup Functions” for information on interrupting an autoboot sequence.

  4. Type the following to run ODE:

       ISL>ODE 
    
  5. Initiate the MAPPER module:

       ISL>RUN MAPPER 
    

    MAPPER displays the current configuration using the same format as IOMAP (see example E-1 for an example display).

Exiting MAPPER

To exit MAPPER type:

   CM> EXIT 

Exiting ODE

To exit ODE type:

   CM> EXIT
