WARNING:
Executing a clear with short option may not clear all alarms, even if all tests
pass.
!
WARNING:
Since the “clear long” options clear all counters if tests pass, it is possible
for firmware counters to be cleared even when a problem exists. In some
cases customer service might degrade since calls may be routed over
defective equipment.
Feature Interactions
With the enhancement of multiple maintenance users, there may be a possibility
of two users attempting to test the same physical hardware (for example, one
using the test alarms command and another using the test board command). If
this command attempts to test a board that is currently being tested by another
user, a error message displays.
Options form
After entering the test alarms command, you are presented with an options form
for alarm selection.
