Netfinity3500 - PC Doctor diagnostics skip / hang testing with tape drive
Applicable to: World-Wide
SYMPTOM:
Running PC Doctor Diagnostics on a server configured with any supported tape drive results in either of the following:
1. Without a tape cartridge in the tape drive, the diagnostics program does not test the device.
2. With a tape cartridge in the tape drive, the diagnostics program responds with the following test failure, then the Utility hangs:
" IDx LUNy, DEVICE NOT TESTED, CODE 8000H"
(where x = the SCSI ID, and y = the Logical Unit Number of the tape drive).
PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
- The system is any Netfinity server properly configured with any supported tape drive.
- PC Doctor version 1.9.387 or below is used.
FIX:
A diagnostics test module for tape drives will be provided in a future version release of PC Doctor.
WORKAROUND:
Remove the media cartridge from the tape drive prior to running the PC Doctor Diagnostics Utility to avoid a program hang.
DETAIL:
PC Doctor version 1.9.387 (or below) does not incorporate a test module for tape drives.
This TIP will be Updated when PC Doctor includes the test module for tape drives.
