Categories and Local Test Directories

The /opt/opsware/oi_util directory has the following subdirectories.

local_probes/<component>/verify_pre

This directory includes prerequisite tests for each component. These tests validate that the necessary conditions exist for the component to operate. For example, the directory twist/verify_pre contains the test script 10check_localhost_spin.sh because the Data Access Engine component must be available for the Web Services Data Access Engine component to function.

local_probes/<component>/verify_post

This directory includes validation tests for each component. These tests verify that a given component is available. For example, the directory spin/verify_post contains the test script 10check_primary_spin.sh to validate that the Data Access Engine component is listening on port 1004 and responds to basic queries.

local_probes/<component>/verify_functionality

This directory includes runtime validation tests for each component. These tests verify that a component is fully operational. They are similar to verify_post tests; however, they might take longer to run. You might choose to skip these tests to save time.
