The server and its accompanying software and firmware contain diagnostic tools and features that can help you isolate component problems, monitor the status of a functioning system, and exercise one or more subsystems to disclose more subtle or intermittent hardware-related problems.
Each diagnostic tool has its own strength and application. Review the tools listed in this section and determine which tool might be best to use for your situation. After you determine the tool to use, you can access it locally, while at the server, or remotely.
