6. Verify that the standby is up. Regular flashing of the yellow LED on the
Processor circuit pack indicates that the standby SPE is up and cycling. If
the yellow LED is not flashing after 5 minutes test the standby SPE by
using the lock-and-power-down procedure described in Chapter 5.
7. With the standby SPE still busied out to prevent an interchange, unlock the
active SPE by moving the SPE Select Switches back to the Auto position.
8. Use the
status spe
command to verify that handshake is up. Wait up to 10
minutes for handshake to come up.
9. If
status spe
shows MAJOR alarms, enter the
display alarms
command
for category
spe
. Resolve alarms for maintenance objects other than
STBY-SPE, DUPINT and DUP-CHL first.
10. Execute the
test duplication-interface long clear
command to resolve
the DUPINT and DUP-CHL alarms. If any test aborts, but none fail, run this
test again at 1-minute intervals up to a maximum of 5 times, until all tests
pass.
If no DUPINT or DUP-CHL tests failed, the DUPINT and DUP-CHL
alarms are resolved or cleared in this active to standby direction.
Continue with step 11.
If any DUPINT or DUP-CHL tests failed, and the standby DUPINT
has been replaced, but the active DUPINT pack has
not
been
replaced, replace the active DUPINT using the procedure in the
following section.
If any DUPINT or DUP-CHL tests failed, and
both
DUPINTs have
been replaced, but the DUPINT interconnecting cable has not been
replaced, replace the DUPINT interconnecting cable using the
replacement procedure for the DUPINT interconnecting cable.
If any DUPINT or DUP-CHL tests failed, and both DUPINT circuit
packs and the interconnecting cable have been replaced, escalate
the problem.
11. Release the standby SPE from the busyout using the
release
spe-standby
command and wait about 10 minutes for the standby SPE to
be refreshed. If the standby SPE fails to refresh, as observed with
status
spe
, follow normal escalation procedures.
12. If the SPE Standby State-of-Health is functional as observed with status
spe, enter the reset system interchange command. With this SPE now
active, execute busyout spe-standby and use test duplication-interface
long clear to test the Duplication Channel in the other direction.
If all tests pass, continue with step 13.
If any test fails, and the currently
standby
DUPINT circuit pack has
not already been replaced, replace it now by starting at the
beginning of this procedure. This circuit pack has passed tests
while on the active carrier, but is still the most likely circuit pack to
be faulted, especially if DUP-CHL tests are failing.
