Reset Test (#889)
The reset action initializes the Packet Interface circuit pack and causes the
firmware on the Packet Interface circuit pack to run a comprehensive set of
diagnostic tests.
The demand reset action will abort if the specified Packet Interface circuit pack is
on an active SPE (versus a standby SPE) and if that Packet Interface circuit pack
is in the in-service state.
A Packet Interface circuit pack is put in the out-of-service state automatically if it
has been reset 3 times by background maintenance within the last 15 minutes,
independent of the results of the reset action.
If the system is equipped with the High Reliability or Critical Reliability
Configuration and if the Packet Interface circuit pack is on the standby SPE, the
2 FAIL No response from the active Packet Interface circuit pack to a request to the
Packet Interface on the active SPE for peer link setup between the active and
standby Packet Interface circuit pack.
1. Retry the test command after a one minute delay.
2. If the test continues to fail:
a. Use the display alarms command to display the active alarms. Verify
that there are no alarms on the standby SPE components other than the
alarm for the Peer Link failure. If there are, clear those alarms first.
b. Initiate an SPE interchange by moving the SPE SELECT switches on the
DUPINT circuit packs to the position corresponding to the carrier
location of the standby SPE. This will cause an SPE interchange using a
WARM restart. Established calls will not be disconnected.
c. Replace the Packet Interface circuit pack on the standby SPE and
restore the SPE SELECT switches to their neutral position. (Refer to
Replacing SPE Circuit Packs in Chapter 5, ‘‘Alarms, Errors, and
Troubleshooting’’ for procedures for replacing circuit packs in a standby
SPE carrier.)
d. Enter the status SPE command at on minute intervals up to 10 minutes
to wait for memory refresh to complete.
PASS The SPE is able to communicate with the Packet Interface circuit pack. If
problems are still reported on the circuit pack, check for errors on the Private
Looparound Tests (#885) and Maintenance Looparound Tests (#886).
