SAM
The SAM program is a programatic interface to the CDC Keystone-III
tape drives Structured Analysis Method of fault isolation. The SAM
program may be invoked by typing:
CLI> x sam
The program is interactive and will intialize itself as follows:
Enter STU unit number :
Enter the unit number of the Streaming Tape Unit you which to test.
From this point on the program will run tests which you desire and
display test termination status. Some tests run forever and you will
have to reset the tape drive to terminate test execution. For each
SAM will prompt:
Enter test number :
The program is referring to the SAM tests described in the CDC STU
manual. The supported tests are 1..3, 10..26, 28..34, 37..47, 52..62,
and 91, 97. Some of the tests require options. Options fall into
one of four categories. They are:
Loop option
Bypass option
Pattern option
Speed option
If the test you have chosen requires options you will be prompted for
them. The SAM program will then execute the selected test. Several
tests do not terminate. Several other tests may not terminate if their
loop option has been so set. In any case the SAM program will wait
for test termination, display the termination status, and again prompt
for a test to execute. To terminate the SAM program type control-C to
this prompt.«nul»
