Packet Circuit Pack Audit Test (#573)
This test determines whether Packet circuit p acks have reported Packet
Bus-related in-line errors within the last minute. If so, the failure c ode indicates
whether one or more circuit pac ks have reported failures within the last minute.
Due to the one-minute time constraint includ ed as part of this test, the test is
designed to d elay 15 seconds before returning a result in cases where the test
has failed within the last five minutes. This proc edure helps ensure that a
repeated sequenc e of the test does not always yield the same result. If no failure
has occurred in the last five m inutes, a PASS is returned immediately.

Result Description/ Recommendation
2500 ABORT An internal operation failed; the test could not be completed.
1. Retry the command at 1-minute intervals a maximum of 5 times.
1 FAIL One Packet circuit pack has reported Packet Bus-related in-line errors within
the last minute.
2 FAIL More than one Packet circuit pack has reported Packet Bus-related in-line
errors within that last minute.
1. Refer to the "Packet Bus Fault Isolation Flowchart" section in Chapter 9 to
determine the cause of the error reports.
PASS No Packet circuit packs have reported Packet Bus-related in-line errors within
the last minute. This indicates that the Packet Bus is healthy, or that a Packet
Bus fault is transient or is being caused by a faulty Packet circuit pack. If this
test passes while there are other signs of a Packet Bus failure (as indicated, for
example, in the Error/Alarm Logs or by other test failures), refer to the "Packet
Bus Fault Isolation Flowchart" section in Chapter 9 to isolate the problem.
