APPENDIX B

SCP Diagnostics

The tests provided in this section are very specific diagnostics that are only to be run if you have determined that there is a problem with your SCP. The diagnostics for the SFCS-200WG, SFCS-200BX, and SFCS-1000 are described first.

B.1 SFCS-200WG, SFCS-200BX, SFCS-1000 Diagnostics

If you have determined that there is a hardware problem on a switch control processor (SCP), run the SCP diagnostics that are available by connecting a terminal device to that SCP’s serial port.

NOTE: These diagnostics will only test the individual SCPs, not the switch fabrics themselves.

NOTE: All AMI sessions should be closed before these test are run.

NOTE: It is recommended that you back up your CDB before running any tests that check the FLASH and/or the SRAM. The chips are saved before testing each one and then restored. However, if a power failure would occur or if the switch were rebooted during the test, some of the data may not be restored properly.
