Installation Check test

Table 13 Installation Check test details

Installation Check test

Details/Other test

The Installation Check is not executed in the same way as other L&TT. tests. Rather, it
is run automatically when L&TT starts in Installcheck mode. Installcheck mode is a
feature of the Windows version of L&TT.

Description

When run in Installcheck mode, L&TT checks the installation of selected devices. L&TT
performs several tests on each selected device to determine if the device is configured
optimally. In addition, L&TT performs connectivity and configuration tests on all
supported devices that are configured on the system. These tests cannot be overridden.
All of the tests performed during the installation check can also be run manually with
L&TT. L&TT displays the results of each test and any recommendations.

NOTE:

When L&TT is run in Installcheck mode, the Installation Check wizard appears.

After the selected tests are complete and the results are displayed, the wizard closes,
which also closes L&TT. If you want to restart L&TT, launch it as you normally would
(without the mode=installcheck argument if you are starting it from the command line).

For instructions on how to perform this test, see

“Running tests and device-specific

utilities” (page 29)

For information on starting L&TT in Installcheck mode, see Using the Installation Check
