Test the Configuration

You can test the configuration to see if it has correctly established contact with the host. If the communication fails, error messages appear. When you test using the Configurator (CAICCI-PC Properties dialog), you can differentiate between communications protocol configuration errors and CA solution application errors. You can locate the error precisely and quickly, and can modify your protocol, options, or both until the communication is successful.

Follow these steps:

  1. Run the Configurator.

    The CAICCI-PC Properties dialog opens.

  2. Click Start on the Test tab.

    The configuration test starts. The status and any error messages appear in Test Log.

  3. Review the messages, correct the errors, and test the corrected configuration.
  4. Click OK when you finish with your testing.

    The CAICCI-PC Properties dialog closes.
