We obtained a number of UCS servers and as I am new to the server world I would like to know which tests are being run to test a new server. I already installed a netboot server which allows the servers to boot a memtest86 image to test the memory but there must be more test which can be run to test the CPU for example.

Hi,

just to be clear, are they blades or rack servers?

./Abhinav

blade servers a number of dual proc machines and some single proc machines.

For the CPU, Prime95 is always a good one:

It will also test the memory subsystem quite well.
