Diagnostic Tools

Diagnostic Adapter

Available for some ProLiant BL servers, the Diagnostic Adapter provides keyboard,
mouse, monitor, and serial connection access to an individual server blade. This
allows you to troubleshoot a specific server blade using the Integrated Administrator
and other server diagnostic functionality. Refer to your server-specific user
documentation for more information.

Diagnostic Station

Available for some ProLiant BL servers, the Diagnostic Station enables you to power
up and communicate with a server blade or interconnect switch outside of the rack
environment. With this functionality, you are able to observe blade LEDs, test NIC
activity, configure a server blade or interconnect switch, load software, and diagnose
server blade or interconnect switch problems using Integrated Lights-Out (iLO).
Refer to the Diagnostic Station installation guide for more information.

Inspect Utility

The Inspect Utility provides configuration information, such as the current memory
configuration and the ROM version. Two versions of Inspect are available, one
version for 32-bit systems and one version for 64-bit systems. Refer to your
server-specific user documentation to determine what type of system you have.
