Disk and Floppy Drives Test (disktest)
-
disktest verifies the functionality of hard disk drives and floppy drives using three subtests (see TABLE 8-1): Media, File System, and Asynchronous I/O. disktest test performs a random seek check followed by a read test or a read-after-write test on the disk. Most disk drives, such as SCSI disks, native or SCSI floppy disks, IPI, and so on, are supported. The type of drive being tested is displayed at the top of the option menu.
- Initially, disktest probes the disks under /dev/rdsk. It checks all of the partitions of each disk in the Functional test mode. If any partition has a file system that is not yet mounted, disktest pre-mounts these partitions for the File System subtest. The pre-mount point bears the name of the disk partition appended with a system-wide unique number. For example, if the disk name is /dev/dsk/c0t3d0, disktest mounts it as superuser under the name /disktest_c0t3d0. The disktest option menu shows all partitions (except the swap partition) that are available for testing. The File System subtest can only be run if the selected partition is mounted. The Write option of the Media subtest is allowed only if a selected partition is not mounted.
-
disktest tests the floppy drive regardless of whether the Volume Management software is running.
-
- If the Volume Management software is running, disktest tests the disk drive with the mount point name in the /etc/mnttab file.
-
Caution - If a power failure occurs while the Media subtest is being run in write mode, disk data will be destroyed.
-
- If the Volume Management software is not running, disktest tests the disk drive with the device name dev=/dev/diskette. Do not edit the /etc/vold.conf file to change the floppy drives. Currently, the SunVTS software is hard-coded to use these path names as the default logic name.
- Table 2-1 describes the disktest subtests.
-
TABLE 8-1 disktest
| Subtest | Description |
| Media Subtest | Verifies disk media by writing data to and reading data from the disk. The Media subtest treats a disk as one large chunk of contiguous data. This is a scalable test that can run multiple copies in read/ write mode on the same disk partition. To avoid data corruption, all simultaneous instances of disktest communicate through a shared memory service. This ensures that different copies of the media subtest do not overlay the same disk block at the same time.
|
| File System Subtest | Verifies the disk system's integrity. The file system subtest exercises the partition being tested to determine if it is mounted. If the partition is not already mounted or pre-mounted, then the test is blocked. The test opens two temporary files (of the size specified on File System File Size) and performs a Read/Write test. |
| Asynchronous I/O Subtest | Uses the asynchronous read/write feature of the Solaris disk driver to exercise the disk. In read-only mode, the test sends a maximum of four asynchronous read packets, each with a random size and a random offset into the selected partition. The test then waits for all outstanding I/O activity to complete before issuing another round of packets. This process continues until the whole area is tested. In read-write mode, one write packet is issued in every four read packets as a spot check of the write operation. Before data is written to a particular location, data is backed up, write-verified, and restored to its original state. |
disktest Test Options

FIGURE 8-1 disktest
- The disktest test (see FIGURE 8-1 and TABLE 8-2) has different option menus for different test modes.
-
TABLE 8-2 disktest
| disktest Options | Description |
| Partition | Displays the partition for the Media subtest. If a partition is mounted, its mount point is appended after the partition number, such as 1(/usr), where 1 is the partition number, and /usr is the mount point. |
| Test Media | Enables or disables the Media subtest. |
| Media Write Read Mode | Enables Read-Only or Read mode after write, with or without backup. |
| Media Coverage (%) | Enables users to test all or part of a partition (in percentages). |
| Test File System | Enables or disables the File System subtest; File System File Size: creates a file system file size twice the size as what is specified. |
| File System Transfer Size | Displays the transfer size of the File System subtest.
File System Test Pattern: Test pattern of File System subtest. |

disktest Test Modes.
-
TABLE 8-3 disktest
| Test Mode | Description |
| Connection Test | This mode is only available for the hard disk test. There is no Connection test for the floppy driver test. Only one instance of disktest (which monitors UNIX error messages) is allowed for each disk device. disktest displays messages and reports errors. The test also opens the hard disk, checks the disk configuration, reads a few blocks, and then closes the hard disk. No File System subtest is run. No Write option is available in Connection test. |
| Functional Test | This mode does not allow disktest to monitor UNIX error messages. More than one instance of disktest is allowed for one disk device. Both the File System and Media subtests can be run in Functional test.The floppy test can also be run in Functional test mode. If you invoke SunVTS through SyMON, the following Functional Test description applies: This mode is only available for the hard disk test. There is no Online mode for the floppy driver test. Only one instance of disktest is allowed for each disk device, which monitors UNIX error messages. disktest displays messages and reports errors. In this mode, disktest also opens the hard disk, checks the disk configuration, and executes the Media subtest. Next, disktest performs random seek checks. Only Read Only mode is allowed. The default coverage is 30percent. No File System subtest is run. When the test finishes, disktest closes the disk device being tested. No Write option is available in Online mode.
