- HELP
EVDWB is a level 2R diagnostic, the execution of which
is under VMS only. It is comprised of 12 tests.
To run EVDWB,boot in the Diagnostic Supervisor, load
EVDWB.EXE, and attach both the UBA and the UNA11.
For information on attaching, type 'HELP EVDWB ATTACH'.
Before running this diagnostic two system parameters must be
changed, type 'HELP EVDWB PARAMETERS',also the interface cable
must be connected between the link board and the bulhead connector.
This diagnostic will not run if the local node is connected to
DECNET. The logical link with DECNET must be terminated, type
'HELP EVDWB DECNET' for more information.
Each time information is desired on the following keywords
it is necessary to type HELP EVDWB 'keyword'.

- START
Executes image'EVDWB.EXE' that was previously loaded
by the LOAD or by a previous RUN command. Executes the image
by passing control first to the program's initialization
code and then sequentially to each test within the program.
Format:
START [qualifiers]
- Qualifiers
/SECTION:section-name
Select a program section to be executed. This must be a section
defined by the program (TYPE 'HELP EVDWB SECTIONS' for infor-
mation on the sections implemented by this program).
If the SECTION qualifier is not used, the section named DEFAULT,
is executed,in which case all tests will be executed.
/TEST:first[:last]
If the 'first' and 'last' arguments are specified, the supervisor
sequentially passes control to tests 'first' through 'last'
inclusively.
If only the first argument is specified with the TEST switch, the
last argument is assumed by default to be the highest numbered
test within the program.
/PASSES:count
After program execution has been completed, as defined by use of
other qualifiers, count is decremented and execution continues;
the program will loop through the specified cycle 'count' times.
If the /PASSES qualifier is not used,'count' defaults to 1.
- SECTIONS
Section names have been gernerated so that the user can
run any individual section by typing START/SECTION:SECTION NAME
The following sections are available in EVDWB:
ROM - Read internal ROM
WCS - Read/Write internal WCS
LNKADR - Internal link address test
LNKBIT - Read/Write internal link memory
TCRC - Transmit crc test
RCRC - Receive CRC test
PROM - Promiscuous address test
ENMULT - Enable all multicast
STATION - Station test
RUNT - Pad runt test
NOBUF - No receive buffers available
STRESS - UNA stress test
- DECNET
This diagnostic will not run while there exist a logical
link to DECNET. The operational state of the local node
must be terminated in the following manner.
$MCR NCP
NCP> SET EXECUTOR STATE OFF
- DEVICE
UNA11
Description: UNIBUS to NI ADAPTER
link: DW0
recommended generic: XEA0
Additional information:
CSR 774510 [OCTAL 760000-777776]
VECTOR 120 [OCTAL 2-776]
BR 5 [DECIMAL 4-7]
- EVENT_FLAG
EVENT FLAG #3 is used to selectively run TEST 12
in external or internal loopback by setting or
clearing the EVENT FLAG respectively.
- QUICK
The QUICK feature is not implemented in this diagnostic.
The diagnostic execution time for EVDWB is 2 min. 20 seconds.
- SUMMARY
Upon the completion of the "STRESS" test, this section
will print a summary of the internal UNA11 counters.
This section does not apply to any other test.
- PARAMETERS
In order to have EVDWB.EXE run successfully two system parameters
must be changed. The VMS SYSGEN MAXBUF parameter must be 1600 and
the (user) BYTLM must be 30000. These parameters can be changed by
the system manager or sofware specialist. Required system privileges
are (SYSPRV,OPER).
- BYTLM
NOTE: underlined items are those to be inputed by the user.
To change <user> BYTLM parameter:
$ SET DEF SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSEXE]
----------------------------
$ RUN AUTHORIZE
-------------
UAF> MODIFY <user accn't name>/BYTLM = 30000
---------------------------------------
UAF> EXIT
----
$ LO (user must logout to write BYTLM quota)
- MAXBUF
NOTE: underlined items are those to be inputed by the user.
To change the SYSGEN MAXBUF parameter:
$ MCR SYSGEN
----------
SYSGEN> SHOW MAXBUF
-----------
SYSGEN> SET MAXBUF 1600
---------------
SYSGEN> WRITE ACTIVE
------------
SYSGEN> EXIT
----
The SYSGEN MAXBUF parameter remains valid only for the
current session,if the user logs out at anytime and then logs
back in, MAXBUF must again be set to 1600.
- MIN_CONFIGURATION
Minimum hardware requirements:
VAX processor(730,750,780,785,8200,8600,8800)
VMS minimum of memory
UNIBUS adapter for SBI
DEUNA
Transciever with terminators
Bulkhead connector
- LOOPBACK
By default all tests run in internal loopback mode. Test 12
can be run in external loopback by setting event flag #3.
For additional information type 'HELP EVDWB EVENT_FLAG'.
