Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute a diagnostic program fully automatically and to reduce the labor of maintaining operation by executing an initializing program which has the maximum constitution of an information processing system as a table before the diagnostic program is executed. CONSTITUTION:The diagnostic initializing program 7 refers to the constitution table 8 and registers connected peripheral devices 2, 3, and 4 in the constitution table 8 according to device numbers and unit numbers registered in the table 8. When the processing of the whole constitution table 8 is completed, the control is returned to a diagnostic program controller 6. The diagnostic program controller 6 refers to the constitution table 8 and loads a corresponding diagnostic program when there is a peripheral device concerned. The diagnostic program returns the control to the diagnostic program controller after the diagnostic processing of the peripheral device. The diagnostic program controller repeats the processing up to the end of the constitution table.

For example, when performing preventive maintenance or checking the operation after replacing parts, a diagnostic program for all peripheral devices constituting the information processing system is generally executed. In such a case, the maintenance personnel confirms the type and number of peripheral devices connected to the system and specifies execution of a diagnostic program for one peripheral device.

In the present invention, before executing the diagnostic program, an initial setting program having the maximum configuration of the information processing system as a table is executed, and this initial setting program determines the type and number of peripheral devices connected to the system to be diagnosed. After registering in the above-mentioned table, the target diagnostic programs are automatically called and executed in sequence according to this table. The maintenance personnel further confirms the operation of the system based on the diagnostic results displayed or printed by the executed diagnostic program.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. This information processing system has a processing device 1 and a plurality of peripheral devices 2.3.4 via path lines 5. The processing device 1 includes a diagnostic program control 4-26, a diagnostic initial setting program 7, a configuration table 8, and each diagnostic program 910itk vj. By IPL (Initial Program Loader), the diagnostic program controller 6 is loaded into the memory and control is transferred to the diagnostic program controller 6. The diagnostic program controller 6 loads the diagnostic initial setting program 7 and the configuration table 8 and passes control to the diagnostic initial setting program. The diagnostic initial setting program 7 refers to the configuration table 8 and registers the connected peripheral devices 2.3.4 in the configuration table 8 according to the device number and unit number registered in the table 8. When the processing of the entire configuration table 8 is completed, control is returned to the diagnostic program controller 6. The diagnostic program controller 6 refers to the configuration table 8, and if a connected peripheral device exists, loads the corresponding diagnostic program and passes control to the diagnostic program. The diagnostic program uses the device number of the peripheral device from the configuration table 8,
Diagnose the peripheral device by referring to the unit number.

When the diagnostic processing is completed, control is returned to the diagnostic program controller. The diagnostic program controller processes until the end of the configuration table (repeatedly. When the last process of the configuration table 8 is finished, the entire diagnostic process ends.) According to this embodiment, the execution of the diagnostic program is performed by the IPL operation. It is carried out automatically and does not require any operation by maintenance personnel, which is effective in saving labor for maintenance work.
