Column Slot indicates shelf. slot.

Column CardState indicates the status of the card in the card in that slot.

Active indicates when a card has become active.

Empty indicates that the active ASC does not recognize that a card is installed in that slot.

Standby indicates that a card is in standby.

Mismatch indicates that there is some condition that does not allow the active ASC to complete the initialization of the card in the slot.

Failed indicates that the card has failed the initialization and configuration.

Unknown indicates that the active ASC was not able to identify the card installed in the slot. Column CardType indicates the type of card that is installed in that slot.

Column CardAlarm indicates if any major or minor alarms exist for that slot. Column Redundancy indicates if the redundancy state has changed.

The output from the dspcds command is a two screen display—First screen displays the card status and the second screen displays the backplane and node information.
