ONIE and Dell EMC OS installation instructions
This section describes the dierent methods to install ONIE and the Dell EMC OS on your system.
NOTE: After installing the networking operating software (NOS) and diagnostics operating system (DIAG-OS), if you boot into
ONIE Install mode, ONIE assumes ownership of the system; ONIE Install mode is sticky. In this situation, ONIE stays in Install
mode until NOS and DIAG-OS are successfully installed again. If you want to boot into ONIE for any reason other than
installation, use Rescue mode or Update mode.
NOTE: To access ONIE, use the RJ-45 console port.
ONIE expansion
To view all the ONIE commands available, from the ONIE prompt, enter onie- and click <tab> twice.
Use the ^ and v keys to select which entry is highlighted.
Press enter to boot the selected OS, `e' to edit the commands
before booting or `c' for a command-line.
ONIE and DIAG OS installation
The following steps describe how to load ONIE and DIAG-OS on your system:
•Installing ONIE—these instructions use the universal serial bus (USB) method. To boot from a Linux USB, you must preinstall BIOS on
your system.
•Installing the DIAG-OS—Install the DIAG-OS from the ONIE prompt. Ensure that your TFTP server is reachable over your network.
•ONIE operates using a 115200 baud rate. Ensure that any equipment attached to the serial port supports the required 115200 baud rate.
NOTE: The following output examples are for reference only; your output may vary.
NOTE: The management port IP, FTP server IP address, MAC address, and user-id shown are for illustration purpose only. Use
your system’s applicable values.
ONIE service discovery and OS installation
ONIE attempts to locate the installer through several discovery methods, as shown. To download and run an installer, the ONIE Service
Discovery feature uses the rst successful method found.
1 Pass from the boot loader.
2 Search locally attached storage devices for one of the ONIE default installer lenames—for example, USB.
3 Discover the URLs from DHCPv4.
4 Report discovered URLs based on the DHCPv4 responses.
5 Query to the IPv6 link-local neighbors using HTTP for an installer.
6 Start TFTP waterfall—from the DHCPv4 option 66.
ONIE ifconfig eth0 command examples
If none of the ONIE Service Discovery methods are successful, you can disable this using the onie-discovery-stop command.
You can install an operating system manually from HTTP, USB, FTP, or TFTP using the onie-nos-install <URL> command.
NOTE
: If you have a recovery USB plugged into your system, you must remove it before installing the DIAG-OS using the onie-
nos-install <URL> command.
The ONIE Install environment uses DHCP to assign an IP address to the management interface, eth0. If that fails, it uses the link-local
IPv4 address 169.254.209.190/16.
To display the IP address, use the ifconfig eth0 command, as shown:
To assign an IP address to the management interface, eth0, and verify network connectivity, use the ifconfig eth0 <ip address> command, as shown:
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0 x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x UP
Then set speed on management interface as below
ONIE:/ # ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full
Verify the network connection with ping.
ONIE:/ # ping x.x.x.x
PING x.x.x.x (x.x.x.x): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: seq=0 ttl=62 time=1.357 ms
64 bytes from x.x.x.x: seq=1 ttl=62 time=0.577 ms

Installation ONIE from BIOS
There are two options for installing ONIE from the BIOS.
•Media (usb) boot using the ONIE installer USB (using the OCP Procedure)
•Media (usb) boot using the Ubuntu installer USB (using the custom-bootable USB procedure)
Pre-requisites
The BIOS running on your system must meet the following requirements:
•Allows a change to the boot order so the system can boot from media (USB).
•Allows a baud-rate change. This feature is optional; you do not need it if your BIOS is running at 115200 baud rate. The default baud rate
for ONIE is 115200.
CAUTION
•These procedures are for x86-based targets only, particularly targets using Rangeley or Centerton CPU-based boards.
•Check the console (UART-0/1) used on the target.
•The log messages included in this guide are subject to change.
NOTE: The following procedure is generic and does not list a particular target. Therefore, the ONIE images are specied using
the <platform>_<cpu> notation. For example, the ONIE media (usb) iso image is onie-recovery-x86_64-dell_<platform>_<cpu>-r0.iso.

ONIE UEFI-based installation using USB
The following steps describe how to create a bootable unied extensible rmware interface (UEFI) ONIE-based USB to install ONIE using
Embed mode:
To install ONIE UEFI on your system, use any existing ONIE-based system to make an ONIE UEFI-based bootable USB. To make a bootable
USB, use the ONIE ISO le.
1 Boot the ONIE target in ONIE Rescue mode.
Use ONIE Rescue mode to make the ONIE UEFI-bootable USB.
To select which entry is highlighted, use the up and down arrow keys. Press Enter to select an operating software-selected OS or
enter e to edit the commands before booting. Enter c for a command line. The highlighted entry, displaying *, executes automatically
in the operating system.
6 Copy the ISO image to the USB using the dd command.
ONIE:/ # dd if=./onie-recovery-x86_64-dell_<platform>_c2538-r0.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=10M
3+1 records in
3+1 records out
39780352 bytes (37.9MB) copied, 6.890503 seconds, 5.5MB/s
ONIE:/ #
7 Move the USB from the ONIE target—the system with ONIE—to the USB slot in your switch—the system without ONIE.
8 Turn-on your system and enter the BIOS setup menu by selecting Del when BIOS message is displayed.
If you already powered on your system, reboot the system and enter the BIOS setup menu by selecting Del.
9 In the BIOS Boot menu, select UEFI USB. Select Save and Exit.

This chapter describes system diagnostics and troubleshooting. After running the diagnostic tools, your system displays pass or fail test
results. If all tests pass, the diagnostic tools exit normally. If a test fails, each diagnostic tool oers a dierent result.
NOTE: The troubleshooting package includes a README le that lists the tools version and the overall troubleshooting package
version. For more information, see this README le.
NOTE: To download the Release Notes, go to www.dell.com/support.
This system uses the power-on self test (POST) diagnostic tool that automatically runs during the system power-on at the BIOS level. This
tool tests for catastrophic hardware failures that prevent booting the system. The error code is saved in CMOS for the next boot. There is
no physical alarm indication.

If it is not possible to restore your factory defaults with the installed OS, reboot the system from the Grub menu and select ONIE: Rescue. ONIE Rescue bypasses the installed OS and boots the system into ONIE until you reboot the system. After ONIE Rescue
completes, the system resets and boots to the ONIE console.
CAUTION: Restoring factory defaults erases any installed OS and requires a long time to erase storage.
1 Restore the factory defaults on your system from the Grub menu using the ONIE: Uninstall OS command.
To select which entry is highlighted, use the up and down arrow keys.
3 Return to the default ONIE settings using the onie-uninstaller command.

Dell EMC DAIG-OS tools
This section describes how to use the Dell EMC diagnostics operating system (DIAG-OS). The DIAG-OS provides a suite of tools to help
diagnose issues seen on the system, or to run a health check to ensure that the hardware is operating properly.
Diagnostic tools
The DIAG-OS uses standard Linux drivers and contains the following tools you can use to evaluate the health of your system. The tools are
packaged for both the DIAG-OS, which is a simple OS of the same kernel version, and small rootfs to support the tools and drivers.
NOTE: By default, the system’s I/O modules are down. Power up the I/O modules or the Opticstool and NPUtool reports failures.
For information about how to power up the I/O modules, see the
support.

•Diagnostic package
edatool
The diagnostics tools include edatool. To test the basic functionality of the system, use the edatool.
The edatool executes a script of simple commands, similar to commands in the CLI. Usually, the diagnostics tools run these types of
tests. The success or failure of these tools is reported. At the end of the edatool run, reports the PASSED or FAILED results in a
standard format the test scripts can easily parse.
Tests
The edatool does not have a test command, but instead runs all the tests that are scripted.

ethtool
The ethtool provides management interface details.
fantool
The fantool tests the fans in the system, sets, and reports the fan speeds and the fan tray eld replaceable unit (FRU) registers. The
fantool also reports the airow direction of the fans. The psutool command controls the PSU fans.
Tests
The fantool tests the fans by setting them to dierent speeds and then verifying the congured fan speeds.
Registers and values pass as hexadecimal values with or without the preceding 0x. Fans display from 1 to Max System Fans.

*Registers and Values are passed as Hexadecimal values with or without the preceding 0x.
*Fans are from 1 to Max System Fans.
The fantool uses long options which requires two hyphens in front of the options. Options are required, optional, or none. If you require a
parameter, specify it and include an equal sign. If a parameter is optional, enclose it with square brackets to show that it is optional, but do
not type the brackets at the CLI. For example, --fan is optional and enter it as --fan=1 or --fan=all, and so forth. Parameters with
angle brackets are required but have multiple options for the input. Do not type the angle brackets or the vertical line character in the CLI.
Only use one option per command; for example,
--fan=1 or --fan=all.
•test—Runs through the speeds for the fan, from highest to lowest, and checks that the fan can run at the speeds of the test. If a
single fan is listed on the CLI, that fan is tested. If you use the
test is the speed the system tries to reach during the test. If a fan cannot reach the desired speed within an acceptable range after 10
checks, the fan fails for that speed and the system moves on to the next fan.
•get—Gets the speed of the fan and returns it in the rate process module (RPM).
•set—Sets the speed of the fan in the RPM.
NOTE
: Commonly, fan speeds are in two registers and must be written in a specic order. The write command cannot change
the fan speeds; use the set command.

gpiotool
The gpiotool controls the state of the GPIO lines from the CPU or any other device that drives the GPIO lines.
The CPU GPIO alines the map in Linux to /sys/class/gpio entries, which are manipulated through the standard read/write interfaces.
There is chip numbering to support multiple GPIO chips, or chips at an oset. For devices such as the complex programmable logic device
(CPLD) or eld programmable gate arrays (FPGA), gpiotool accesses those devices to drive the GPIO lines using the standard bus
interfaces such as i2c, mem, or pci.

The i2ctool allows for scanning, reading, and writing of the I2c bus devices.
To read and write to devices on the i2c bus, use the i2ctool. The i2ctool also scans the i2c busses and reports what devices are
found. The scan reads address 0x0 from all the devices in the address range of 0x0 to 0x7f on all i2c busses present. The i2ctool does
not automatically traverse MUXes along the
through a named pipe.
Tests
To test, the i2ctool has a congurationle that lists all the devices on the busses. The tool runs through the list and tries to reach the
devices. The
i2ctool reports when a device is not returning data.

Output
NOTE
: The i2ctool does not automatically scan multiple MUXed segments. Before scanning, you MUST set the MUXes to
select the devices you want to see on the busses. By default, the i2ctool scans the i2c devices from the root MUX where it
sees the list of devices directly connected to the CPU MUX. The default scan function scans all connected busses. By specifying
a bus, you can limit the scan to one bus. In the scan data,
UU indicates that the device is busy or mapped to the OS.
The ledtool allows you to control the state of the front and back panel light emitting diodes (LEDs). ASIC and Phys control the port
LEDs and are beyond the scope of this tool.
You can manually control the front and back panel LEDs normally controlled through the CPLD or FPGA access. When set, bits in these
registers control the state of the LED.
Tests
To test the LEDs, use the ledtool --test command.

lpctool
To access devices on the LPC bus, use the lpctool.
The lpctool allows access on the LPC bus by using I/O transactions at the processor level. This access does not include LPC interfaces
in other devices. Other DIAG-OS tools use lpctool to read LPC-connected registers.

The memtool tests the physical memories in the system.
The memtool performs address bus and data tests that moves 1s or 0s through the bus lines to detect stuck, missing, bridged, or other
issues found during board tests. The tool also places hamming values or addresses into memory to test and report failing bits. All tests are
similar to the memtest86 application but are available through the CLI.
Dell EMC DAIG-OS tools
45
In addition, the memtool reads the types and locations of memory in the system. The memory may be physical RAMs connected to the
CPU covered by caches, or memory attached or embedded in other devices or across buses. The tool must know the addressable location
of the memory, the memory address, data bus sizes, and any addressing constraints; for example, byte or word addressable boundaries.
The memtool allocates a memory region to tests in, which is either malloc space or opens a memory map to the memory, and passes
the pointer to access the memory.
Tests
Address Read—Causes read transactions on the memory bus. Address read can loop for several iterations, checking for any
•
changes in the data between iterations. You can specify patterns on the address bus for the bits to allow the testing for stuck address
bits.
•Address Write—Creates write transactions on the memory bus. Address writes can loop for several iterations, and works similar to
the Address Read test.
•Address Walking 1—Walks a 1 though the provided address space in memory for the available address bits. Address Walking 1
writes the address of the cell in the location it is referencing. After it completes writing all the locations, it walks back through and
veries that the data is correct.
•Address Walking 0—Walks a 0 address bit through the memory area available to it. Address walking 0 writes the additive inverse
of the address to the location. After writing all addressed locations, it walks back through and veries the locations data.
•Data Read—Reads transactions similar to the Address Read test, but focuses on the data bits. Patterns are placed on the data bus
to test for stuck data bits.
•Data Write—Places data patterns on the bus for testing the bus and looks for stuck data bits.
•Data Walking 1—Walks a 1 through the data bits within an address location and veries that the values are valid before
overwriting.
•Data Walking 0—Walks a 0 through the data bits and veries the value as it is testing.
•Data Sliding 1—Slides a 1 through the data testing for stuck bits. By xor of each shift to the data, when complete, the cell holds
all the 1s.
•Data Sliding 0—Slides a 0 through the data bits set to 1. By xor of each shift of the data, when complete, the cell holds all the
1s.
•Data Pattern—Writes four dierent patterns to memory locations within the specied region. The patterns are 0xFFFF, 0xFF00,
0xF0F0, 0xAAAA, 0xAA55 and 0x5555. The patterns are written as repeated portions of these patterns in the memory to ll the
memory and as Hamming patterns (such as Hamming [8,4], Hamming[16,11], Hamming[32,26] or Hamming[64,57]) encoding with the
additional most signicant byte (MSB) parity bit to cover the parity bits in the Hamming code. This pattern allows for detecting multiple
bit errors.
•Data Cache—Performs a rotation of a 16MB array in four clockwise rotations for 16 iterations of the complete rotation. The 16MB
size ensures that memory is not within the cache lines and causes cache ejections through each of the rotations.

e.g. ADDRESS_WALKING1,DATA_WALKING1
The memtool uses long options for the parameters which requires two hyphens in front of the options. Options are required, optional, or
none. If a parameter is required, it is specied as such and must include an equal sign; if an option is optional, it is enclosed with square
brackets. However, do not type the brackets at the CLI. For example, the -region and -testlist options are optional and you must
enter them as -region=0 and -testlist=0.
•List—Lists the memory regions SDI knows. The tool queries SDI for the regions and prints a list of the regions with a region number
that you can use for the subsequent options requiring a region number.
•Info—Lists the SPD information for the specied regions. Specifying a region allows the tool to read SPD from dierent DIMM
modules, each specied in its own region. The output lists the actual data read and completes some parsing of the parameters so you
do not have to decode the values. Decoding is based on the SPD standard denition for DDR3 and DDR4 DIMM memory.
•Test—Runs tests that include: Address Read/Write, Address Walking 1/0, Data Read/Write, Data Walking 1/0, Data Sliding 1/0, and
Data Patterns (that writes Hamming patterns that you can use to detect multiple bit errors and identify single bit errors). These tests
run during the normal memory tests. In extended memory tests, the data cache memory test runs. This test is lengthy and causes
multiple ejections of data from the cache and tests the caches.
In Verbosity 0, only the pass/fail message prints for all the tests. In Verbosity 1, each test prints its own pass/fail and other information;
for example, what failed in the test. Higher verbosities show where each pass of the test performs and has verbose output. All output,
regardless of verbosity, is in the log. You can see every level of detail by referring to the log.
•Read—Reads physical memory locations. You can loop over address read cycles to look for data that is volatile or read physical devices
on the memory bus (
•Write—Writes to a physical memory address to test write cycles and memory. Similar to the Read command, this command takes a
region, address in that region, and a comma-separated list of values to write.

You cannot perform memory tests while other tests that allocate and use memory within the region are performing. However, you can
perform the Read tests concurrently with other processes. You cannot run multiple memory tests at the same time as they may collide
within the memory spaces.
Memory tests cannot test all the memory, and without cache ushes, memory tests may not get out of the caches. The SDI must ensure
the memory accessed is accessing the physical memory. This check slows down the tests.

With trac commands, use the –d option, which displays the BCM.0> shell. To check counters and if the link is up, use the ps and show c commands.
nvramtool
To read and write the NVRAM bits, use the nvramtool. The BIOS uses the NVRAM bits to control testing. The EDA tools also use the
NVRAM bits.
The NVRAM is an area, usually in a battery backed-up device such as an RTC chip. The NVRAM bits do not change across reboots or
power cycles. These bits control how devices boot and how the system performs tests. The nvramtool controls both the BIOS and EDA
for testing. The bits are not common across platforms and are dened in the conguration le. When using this tool, you must write the
correct bits because the tool does not know the register details it is writing. The nvramtool displays the bit-level detail in the NVRAM
registers, depending on how you dene it in the congurationle.
Tests
There are no tests of the NVRAM. This tool only controls the bits.

To scan and access devices on the PCI bus, use the pcitool. The pcitool checks for missing devices and that the present devices are
the proper type.
The pcitool scans the PCI bus for present devices and displays them and the BAR information it decodes. The tool does not handle
endianess.
The pcitool reads the congurationle and then iterates across all devices in the conguration le. It checks the vendor/product ID to
see that the correct device is at the correct address. The tool does not compare all the conguration space. The tool reads all 256 bytes of
the congurationle.
Tests
The pcitool reads from the conguration le the devices it expects to nd and reports any devices that it cannot nd or if the device is
not correct. The tool supports second-source parts; therefore, they are not agged as false errors. If a mismatch occurs, the device lists
with the expected value and the read value. Populate the congurationle with
device.

pltool
To test functionality of the CPLD and FPGA devices on the boards during startup, use the pltool.
The pltool also checks for the correct rmware loads. The tool uses the CLI to list the devices and their registers, and allows you to read
and write registers in the device. The read functionality prints the details to the bit level and also any bit groupings and their meanings. The
tool uses the SDI interface to get a list of devices and registers in the system, and then uses SDI to access the devices.
Tests
The pltool tests specied registers that SDI identies in the testable bits of the register. The tool reads the register using SDI interfaces
and compares the testable bits from those bits the SDI database provides. If a mismatch occurs, an error is displayed.

The psutool determines which PSUs are in the system, checks the Power Good setting, and reads the eld replaceable unit (FRU)
information. It does not look at the PSU fans and airow direction of the fans.
Tests
The psutool looks for the presence of the PSU and if the PSU is present, it checks the Power Good setting in the CPLD. It does not read
directly from the PSU but reads the CPLD information instead. If the PSU is present and it does not receive a Power Good signal, it does
not know if the power plug is not installed or if the PSU is not operating correctly, so it displays a failure.

smartctl
smartctl controls the self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology (SMART) system built into most ATA/SATA and SCSI/SAS
hard drives and solid-state drives. The purpose of SMART is to monitor the reliability of the hard drive and predict drive failures, and to
carry out dierent types of drive self-tests.
smarttool
This optional tool is only available on systems using a SmartFusion chip. The SMF controls the PSU, LED control, fan monitoring, and
temperature control of the switch.
Use the smarttool to get and set the SmartFusion Active regions and version, and to reprogram the SmartFusion FPGA.
SmartFusion (SMF) had two upgradable parts — Microcontroller subsystem (MSS) and eld programmable gate array (FPGA), as shown.
The online upgrade MSS images are in *.binles. The online upgrade of FPGA image is in a *.datle. The external upgrade of both
MSS and FPGA is a *.pdble.
There are three regions in the MSS: G — Golden, A — Primary, and B — Secondary. In principle, you cannot upgrade the region G and the
bootloader. Golden is the default bootable region. If both regions A and B become corrupt, the region G image is used for booting. If A
becomes corrupt, select region B and boot from region B.
You can upgrade SMF MSS using the following steps:
To nd out what region is running, use the gmr option.
•If MSS is running in region A, use the region B image to upgrade the MSS.
•If MSS is running in region B, use the region A image to upgrade the MSS.
•If MSS is running in region G, use the region A image to upgrade the MSS.
Upgrade mss A-region when mss is running in G-region:
./smarttool -um /dev/ttyS0 <platform>_SMF_MSS_v1.41_A_region.bin
Upgrade mss B-region when mss is running in A-region:
./smarttool -um /dev/ttyS0 <
Upgrade mss A-region when mss is running in B-region:
./smarttool -um /dev/ <platform>_SMF_MSS_v1.41_A_region.bin
platform>_SMF_MSS_v1.41_B_region.bin
1 Copy all the binaries needed for the upgrade into a local directory.
Figure 6. Copy all needed binaries
2 Check the MSS region using the smarttool –gmr /dev/ttyS0 command.

Dell EMC DAIG-OS tools
Figure 7. Check MSS region
3 Check the MSS version using smarttool –gmv /dev/ttyS0 command.
Figure 8. Check MSS version
4 Because the MSS is running in region G in this example, use the region A image to upgrade your device: smarttool -um /dev/
ttyS0 <Path_to_the_image>/<platform>_SMF_MSS_v1.41_A_region.bin. The device automatically reboots after the
upgrade.

storagetool
The storagetool tests mounted storage media.
The tool searches for any device in /dev/hd*, sda, sdb, or sdc and tests using them. The tests are le-copy tests to the device in the
mounted le system. The les are written, compared and removed, leaving the le system as it was before the test. You can run more tests
using the bonnie++ tool and the tool reads SMART data from the device using the smart option.
Tests
The standard test creates a directory on the le system, opens a le for write, copies the le, compares the les, and reports errors.
The test repeats 10 times. After the test completes successfully, storagetool removes all the test les.

The temptool reads from the temperature devices and reports back the temperatures.
The temperature sensors on the board are commonly connected through i2c busses. The congurationles specify the type of the
device, the sensor name, the instance in that device, its location on the board, and the thresholds for reporting low, normal, and critical
temperatures. To gather the information from the devices and report the values, the temptool uses the i2ctool.
Tests
The tool retrieves the data from the devices and validates that the temperatures are within the acceptable range.
