Reliability Systems: A Maintenance Aid
555-233-123 6-36 Issue 4 May 2002
Maintenance activity is performed automatically on the Standby SPE after the
SPE Select Switches are returned to their AUTO positions in Step 4. This can be
verified by issuing status system and noting that the Standby SPE is labeled as
“maint.” The maintenance activity takes from 10 to 30 minutes to complete. (The
time required for the maintenance activity to complete depends upon the number
of TN765 Processor Interface circuit packs, the number of administered ports on
the Processor Interface circuit packs, the number of administered data channels
on the TN777B Network Control circuit pack, and the current load on the system.)
The completion of the maintenance activity can be verified by issuing status
system and noting whether the Standby SPE is labeled as “standby.”
Although not recommended at this stage of the procedure, the maintenance
activity on the Standby SPE can be preempted using refresh spe-standby. To
preempt the maintenance activity, continue issuing the refresh spe-standby
followed by status system until the status system form shows that the Standby
SPE is labeled “standby.”
It may be necessary to issue refresh spe-standby multiple times to preempt all
Standby SPE maintenance activity. If refresh spe-standby successfully
completes five times without the Standby SPE becoming labeled “standby” on the
status system form, wait 20 minutes. This does not include cases where the
command completes with the G3MT terminal message line errors “Refresh not
successful; use ‘display errors’ to check for STBY-SPE errors” or “Cannot interrupt
Standby SPE while entering maintenance mode; please try later.”
Issue refresh spe-standby once more.
