dirac> diracstart
Starting DIRAC target services
Done.

Process state: active
Process substate: running
Running since: Wed 2024-08-03 11:55:37 CEST
Server status: active
QRNG source: Quantis
QRNG status: OK
6. Verify that the QRNG is able to generate random numbers by using the --generate command.
7. Exit from the CLI by entering the command:
dirac> exit
Result: The DIRAC server version and status are verified.
