Note – If you want to save the log files : When you use the Bootable Diagnostics
CD, the server boots from the CD. Therefore, the test log files are not on the server’s
hard disk drive and they will be deleted when you power cycle the server. To save
the log files, you must save them to a removable media device or FTP them to
another system.
