Diagnostic package

To download the diagnostic package on an S4810–ON, S6000–ON, or N1108EP-ON platform, follow these steps:

  • NOTE: Before you begin, go to http://www.dell.com/support and download the diagnostic package. You need your Dell EMC support access account to download the package.
  • NOTE: These steps only apply to the S4810–ON, S6000–ON, or N1108EP-ON platforms.
  1. Enter the onie-discovery-stop command to stop the ONIE discovery mode.
  2. Assign an IP address to the management interface and verify the network connectivity.

  4. Start ONIE diagnostics. To start the ONIE diagnostics for the S6000–ON, use the onie-diag option from the ONIE menu. To start the ONIE diagnostics for the S4810–ON or N1108EP-ON, use the following procedure:
    1. Set the u-boot environment onie_boot reason using ONIE:/ # onie-set-env onie_boot_reason diag from the ONIE # prompt or using dell_< platform>_on > setenv onie_boot_reason diag from the u-boot prompt.
    2. Reboot the system to launch and run the ONIE diagnostics. For more information and output examples, see edatool.
  • NOTE: To return to your networking operating software, enter the reboot command.
