Netfinity 7000 - Diagnostics selects only one hard drive

Applicable to: World-Wide

When running the "IBM Netfinity 7000 Diagnostics" program from the "Netfinity 7000 system CDROM" on a Netfinity 7000 Type 8651 model TM0/TH0/RM0/RH0, only one of two or more hard drives configured in the system are selected to be tested in the "Tests" menu device list.

Note: The diagnostics program will show 12 hard drives in the device list by default.

WORKAROUND:
To run diagnostics on other drives present in the system, select the drive from the list of darkened drives by moving the cursor to the hard drive, and then press the spacebar.

A series of six questions will be displayed asking to perform destructive tests. Answering NO to ALL six questions will allow non-destructive tests to be performed; data on the hard drives WILL NOT be destroyed. Answering YES to ANY of the six questions will allow destructive tests to be performed; data on the hard drives WILL be destroyed.
