ASD (Arise Secure Desktop) AVG (Arise Virtual Gateway). Mac Requirements. Macs must have an Ethernet port. MacBook Air and Mac USB-C ports will not be supported. For starters, ASD stands for Apple Service Diagnostics, not Apple System Diagnostics. Obviously I can’t comment on how you obtained the ASD files, but if it’s from a reputable source (i.e. From Apple or one of its authorised partners) then it should already contain some PDFs on the disk image to help guide you.
Important: Unlike versions of ASD previously available for the MacBook Pro, ASD version 3S121 requires installation onto an external USB hard drive.
Installing Apple Service Diagnostic on a USB hard drive:
- Connect the external USB hard drive to your Macintosh.
- Open Disk Utility (located in /Applications/Utilities).
- Select the external USB hard drive.
- Click the Partition tab to prepare the drive to be partitioned into two volumes, as follows:
- For ASD (OS), the partition size must be 5.4GB or larger. Name this volume ASD OS 3S121.
- For ASD (EFI),the partition size must be 20MB or larger. Name this volume ASD EFI 3S121.
- Click on Options and select GUID Partition Table as the partition scheme.
- Click Partition to partition the hard drive.
- In the Finder, double-click on the ASD 3S121.dmg file to mount the image. Within it are two disk images, one for EFI, ASD EFI 3S121.dmg, and one for OS X, ASD OS 3S121.dmg volume.
- In Disk Utility, select the volume on the USB hard drive named 'ASD OS 3S121.'
- Click on the Restore tab.
- For Source, select the ASD OS 3S121 disk image by either dragging the icon for the disk image to the Source window, or selecting it by clicking on the Image... button.
Note: Image ASD OS 3S121.dmg should be unmounted before restoring it to the hard drive.

both EFI and Mac OS X tests from an external USB hard drive. Apple Service Diagnostics (EFI) runs low-level tests of the hardware
directly and does not require Mac OS X, while Apple Service Diagnostics (OS) uses Mac OS X to run tests.
Installing Apple Service Diagnostics on a USB hard drive
Please refer to the document “Installing ASD on a USB hard drive” included with this release.
Note: ASD is tested with a custom Mac OS that is supplied in the image. As a test requirement the OS is set up as a root user. DO NOT
copy ASD to another OS or some tests will fail. Also running ASD on another OS removes some of the Finder menu items and sets
preferences specifically for ASD requirements. It will damage your OS so use the one provided.
Booting and using the Apple Service Diagnostics application
Before using Apple Service Diagnostics, disconnect any Ethernet network, USB, and audio cables.
With the USB hard drive containing ASD OS 3S143 and ASD EFI 3S143 plugged into a USB port, restart the computer and hold down
the option key as the computer boots up into the Boot Picker. To run ASD (EFI) select the “ASD EFI 3S143” drive icon and press return
or select it with a mouse click. To run ASD (OS) select the “ASD OS 3S143” drive icon and press return or select it with a mouse click.
ASD (EFI) will load in 20-30 seconds; ASD (OS) will load in 1-2 minutes. After running ASD (OS) or ASD (EFI), press the Shut Down
button to shut down the computer. Removed the USB drive.
