Output
Most fields on this screen display blanks when the PNC is not duplicated.
In a duplicated system, each PNC has a separate entry for the following fields,
representing conditions for only that particular PNC.
Duplicated?
Whether or not the system has a duplicated PNC (Critical Reliability
option).
Software
Locked?
On a system with duplicated PNC, whether the PNCs are locked by
means of the
set pnc lock
or
reset pnc override-and-lock
commands.
When this field displays “yes”, spontaneous or demand PNC
interchanges are not possible. To enable interchanges, use the
set pnc
unlock
command.
Standby
Busied?
On a system with duplicated PNC, whether or not the standby PNC is
busied out with the
busy pnc
command. Interchanges are prevented
when the standby is busied out.
Direct
Connect?
Whether the system uses direct-connect connectivity or a center stage
switch.
Standby
Refreshed?
On a duplicated system, this field indicates whether the standby PNC
has completed a global refresh of duplicated call setup after being
released from a busyout, or after a system reset.
NOTE:
This field does not indicate if a partial unrefresh has taken place
in response to a problem on the standby. Only a “functional” state
of health on the standby (all zeros in the state of health vector)
guarantees that the standby’s call setup matches completely that
of the active.
Interchange
Disabled?
This field displays “yes” when the anti-thrashing mechanism is in effect,
preventing PNC interchanges. This is the case for 5 minutes after a
spontaneous PNC interchange, and for 30 seconds after a demand
interchange. The
reset pnc interchange override-and-lock
command
overrides antithrashing. This field does not indicate whether a PNC
interchange is currently prevented by a software lock, by insufficient
state of health of the standby, or by busyout of the standby.
Mode This field displays "active" or "standby", depending on whether or not
that PNC controls active call processing.
