WAS v8.5 > Troubleshoot > Work with Diagnostic ProvidersRun a self diagnostic on a Diagnostic Provider
We can check the status of server runtime components with predefined tests that can be associated with a Diagnostic Provider. Use the dmgr console to access these functions.
You must have sufficient authority to execute the action.
We can access a list of predefined diagnostic tests used to check the status of a server runtime component. Runtime components that have associated diagnostic providers can include their Diagnostic Provide ID (DPID) in their log entries. If you know the DPID, we can enter it directly in the quick link text box. Otherwise, navigate to the desired process using the tree view displayed at the bottom of the panel.
