Appendix G. Testing with Additional LAN Clients

For OS/2 Server Compatibility testing, only two clients systems (R01 and R02) are required in the test environment. However, to meet certain requests from your customers, you might need to test server systems with more than just two clients. To facilitate this, the PCM Compatibility Testkit LAN setup utilities, network files, test selection program, and test cases provide the ability to add clients R03 through R12.

Installation

Systems R03 through R12 are used as regular LAN Requester clients and can be installed as follows:

Note:

Refer to the tables in "Tables for R03 through R12" for the system names, TCP/IP addresses, and network adapter addresses that have been predefined for clients R03 through R12 in the PCM LAN testing environment.

  1. Installation of OS/2 Warp Version 4 or Convenience Package for OS/2 Warp Version 4 on systems R03 through R12:

Follow the instructions outlined in "Setting Up Client 1" for installing and configuring the systems, but substitute the values from the tables in the network configuration section as appropriate. 

Running Tests on R03 through R12

Using the "LAN Test Selection and Control" GUI on clients R03 through R12, you can select to run tests to exercise either the additional server (S01) or the domain controller (D01).

  1. When you select Run tests to exercise the Additional Server, test cases itlls57.cmd and itlftp01.cmd are run.

  2. When you select Run tests to exercise the Domain Controller, test cases itlls56.cmd and itlftp02.cmd are run.

The test case log files are located in the \xxxlogs directory on each system (where xxx is R03 through R12). When the test cases complete, the log files are copied to the log file directory on the system that was selected (\s01logs on the additional server, \d01logs on the domain controller).

Testkit Results Processing will not use these log files and they will not be copied to the results diskette. To verify if the test cases have completed successfully, issue the following commands.

  1. On the additional server in the \s01logs directory, type:

 grep "ITLLS57 Completed successfully" itlls57.*

and

 grep "ITLFTP01 Completed successfully" itlftp01.*

  1. On the domain controller in \d01logs directory, type:

 grep "ITLLS56 Completed successfully" itlls56.*

and

 grep "ITLFTP02 Completed successfully" itlftp02.*

When running the manual intervention test cases on the additional server in an environment with R03 through R12 systems, you should see the following results:

ITLSV00 - Group Management

R03 through R12 systems installed by following the instructions for client 1 installation will show one icon for each system in the All Systems group, and one icon for each system in the NETBIOSWS group. There should not be an icon in the TCPIPWS group.

R03 through R12 systems installed by following the instructions for client 2 installation will show two icons for each system in the All Systems group, and one icon each in the the NETBIOSWS and TCPIPWS groups.

ITLSV08 - Software Inventory and ITLSV11 - Hardware Inventory

If systems R03 through R12 are selected when running this test case, files will be created on the additional server, and will be copied to the results diskette during results processing, but not used in results analysis.
