Maintenance Commands
555-233-143 7-50 Issue 1 May 2002
busyout pms-link
This command places every maintenance object associated with a property
management system link in the maintenance busy state. No periodic or
scheduled maintenance is performed on the busied out maintenance objects until
they are released. When the object is maintenance busy the object is deactivated
(no call processing activity may include the busied object) and the link is dropped.
Warning alarms (error type 18) are generated on each busied out maintenance
object, so that the Initialization and Administration System (INADS) can determine
the state of the objects. The command, release pms link, reactivates the busied
out objects on the link.
These links provide asynchronous data connections from switches to peripherals;
they are composed of a:
■
Far-end data module
■
Simulated data channel
■
Manager that initiates and maintains the link
■
Controller/protocol that services the link
For information about what a property management system (PMS) is and does,
see
‘‘status pms-link’’ .
Feature Interactions
Maintenance of a particular component on a link sometimes interferes with the
maintenance of the link itself. For example, maintenance can put a link
component in a busy state causing link setup to fail. Frequent attempts at
re-setup of a link may delay the recovery of a faulty component due to the
maintenance test of a component only taking place when the component is idle.
To keep the link intact, disable the attempted re-setup of a link with the busyout
command. If the link is already down, the busyout command stops periodic
re-setup attempts on the link.
