Checkout

Overview

The checkout procedure process provides a method of verifying operational and

functional performance without having to disassemble the unit. Failure to attain the

prescribed results indicates a need for calibration, configuration, or repair of the

equipment.

The checkout procedure process is based on the assumption that the equipment being

tested is using known, good cables. It also requires that the user be familiar with the

operation of the system. For more information concerning the operation of these

components, refer to the operator manual associated with the equipment.

Perform all of the checkout procedures included in this section to completely test the

system for proper function and operation.

Perform the checkout procedures upon receipt of the equipment, every year thereafter,

and each time a component is removed or replaced.

Checkout procedures need to be performed at the following times:

 When initially installing or upgrading the software. See Installation checkout

procedures on page 8-2.

 When performing preventive maintenance. See Preventive maintenance checkout

procedures on page 8-3.

 When replacing any FRU. See FRU replacement checkout procedures on page 8-

General

Follow these instructions to completely test the system for proper function and

operation.

You must close all files before starting the checkout procedures. If the disk drive is

currently in use, a message asks if you want to reschedule the disk checking for the

next time you restart your system. Then, the next time you restart your system, disk

checking runs. Your disk drive will not be available to run other tasks while this

process runs.
