Using the Diagnostic/IPR Media to Run Offline Diagnostics

Test Module Manager (

TMMGR

) .

When the state of

SCROLL

is OFF, the console display is updated using special

terminal-specific control mechanisms (allowing the redraw to occur much faster). If one
wants to save previous screen displays in terminal display memory, or if one is using a
terminal not supported by

TMMGR

,

SCROLL

should be set to ON. Note, if the current

terminal type is unknown, one will not be able to change the state of

SCROLL

to OFF.

LOOP

LOOP |FOREVER

The

LOOP

environment variable indicates how many times to loop on test execution before

control is returned to the user. To loop forever, the state of

LOOP

should to set to

FOREVER. When in this state, the user must hit -Y or -C to stop test
execution. Note, the effect of the

LOOP

environment variable is context-dependent. If test

execution is launched from the system screen, the

LOOP

state indicates how many times

the tests for the tagged modules will be executed. If test execution is launched from a test
screen, the

LOOP

state indicates how many times the tagged tests will be executed.

TERM

TERM HP|UNKNOWN

The

TERM

environment variable indicates the current type of the console. Currently, only

HP serial terminals are fully supported by

TMMGR

. If one is using a non HP terminal or a

graphics display,

TERM

should be set to UNKNOWN.

ERRCOUNT

ERRCOUNT

The

ERRCOUNT

environment variable indicates how many test errors can be generated

before test execution is stopped and control returned to the user. If one does not want error
generation to stop test execution, the state of

ERRCOUNT

should be set to 0.
