turboRamTest

turboRamTest

Performs a turbo SRAM test of ASIC chips.

SYNOPSIS

turboramtest
[--slot slot]
[-passcnt count]

ceeturboramtest
[--slot slot]
[-passcnt count]

DESCRIPTION

Use this command to verify the chip SRAM located in the ASIC using the turbo-RAM BIST circuitry. The
BIST controller is able to perform the SRAM write and read operation at a much faster rate than the PCI
operation.

The turboRamTest and ceeTurboRamTest commands are platform-specific versions of the same test.
The turboRamTest command is supported on all Goldeneye2 and Condor-based platforms. Use
ceeTurboRamTest on FCoE platforms only. On all other supported platforms, use turboramtest. Refer
to the Fabric OS Troubleshooting and Diagnostics Guide, Appendix A, for a table that correlates ASIC
type with switch models.

NOTES

Do not abort this test prematurely, using CTRL-C or q to quit. Doing so may cause the test to report
unexpected errors. Errors may vary depending on the hardware platform.

On 10 Gbps or 16 Gbps (Condor3-based) platforms, you cannot interrupt the test by pressing the return
key ().

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.

This diagnostic cannot be run on an operational switch. You must disable the switch using the
chassisDisable command before you can run this test. After the test completes, re-enable the switch
using the chassisEnable command.

OPERANDS

This command has the following optional operands:

--slot slot

Specifies the slot number on which the diagnostic operates. All eligible blade ports
in the specified slot are tested. This operand is optional. The default value is 0 and
operates on fixed port count products.

-passcnt count

Specifies the number of times to perform this test. This operand is optional. The
default value is 1.

EXAMPLES

To run the SRAM test with two passes:

switch:admin> turboramtest -passcnt 2

Running turboramtest ..............

PASSED.
