June 1999
Maintenance Commands
8-41busyout host-adapter
8
Parameters
If neither PNC is specified, the command defaults to
a-pnc
.
Examples
Duplex PNC:
busyout fiber-link 01 b-pnc busyout fiber-link 03
(defaults to
a-pnc)
busyout host-adapter
busyout host-adapter
C
The
busyout host-adapter
command puts the host-adapter circuit on the
MSSNET circuit pack into a maintenance busy state. When the host-adapter is
busied out, the tape and disk devices on the same carrier are also busied out,
and warning alarms with error type 526 are raised against DISK and TAPE. The
tape and disk do remain available for maintenance testing. This command will
abort if any other MSS operation has already begun.
When the host-adapter is out of service due to test failures, or uninstalled due to
a reset failure, the related tape and disk devices are also placed in the
uninstalled state. All access by system software, maintenance tests, and
commands, including reset, are blocked from execution.
fiber# The administered number assigned to the fiber link. (In a system with
duplicated PNC, this represents a fiber link pair.)
List fiber-link
displays a list of
all fiber links with their numbers, endpoints, and other useful information.
a-pnc If PNC is duplicated, this identifier is used to distinguish between the two fibers
of a duplicated pair. For non duplicated PNC “a-pnc” is the only valid qualifier.
b-pnc On a system with duplicated PNC, this identifier distinguishes between the two
fibers of a duplicated fiber pair. This identifier is invalid on a system with
simplex PNC.
