  1. When the stress test is running, numerous parallel processes will be executing at the same time.

  2. At test completion you are returned to an OS/2 full screen session or to the Desktop.

Results of PCMMED01

Errors encountered that prevent test completion as well as errors reported in the summary file could indicate test failure.

At completion time, go to an OS/2 command prompt and change to the d:\log directory. Type type pcmmed01.sum and press Enter.

After successful execution of this stress test, the last line of the summary file, pcmmed01.sum, should reflect the following:

PCMMED01

PASS 68

FAIL 0

PARTIAL 0

MISSING 0

In some cases the dswitchm or cube files will report a <PARTIAL>. This is acceptable; your passing count will be one or two less. The <PARTIAL> is caused if the switcher script stops the test before completion.

Note:

If partials are detected other than in dswitchm or cube, rerun the individual testcase.exe with the same parameters as used in PCMMED01. Then run strlog.cmd to update the summary file.

Rerunning the Stress Test

If you do not achieve the desired test results described above, do one of the following:
