E5-APP-B Card Diagnostics
All components that comprise the E5-APP-B card platform are designed for testability to ensure that
operational status can be accurately determined and that appropriate levels of fault detection and
isolation are possible with a minimum of effort.
The following levels of diagnostics are provided:
1. Online diagnostics actively monitor the health of a running E5-APP-B card platform. When online
diagnostics encounter a problem, an alarm is raised and front fascia light-emitting diodes (LEDs)
are illuminated to indicate the status of certain components of the E5-APP-B card. For more
information about the E5-APP-B card LEDs, see
. Online diagnostics
can be run while maintaining in-service operation of node.
Diagnostics enable troubleshooting of installed systems by verifying operational capability of Field
Replaceable Units (FRU) and operational status of peripheral system components (such as cables and
connectors) through automated testing initiated by FRU components. Examples are loop-back and
link tests.
