Lucent Technologies 7820-0802-003 manual Viewing controller status, Admin uptime -a

Configuring Shelf-Controller Redundancy (APX 8000)

Obtaining status information about redundant shelf controllers

disrupted and then reestablished, the uptime command reports the time elapsed since the secondary controller reestablished communications with the primary.

The uptime command does not report the version number of code used by the controllers, but instead reports the primary or secondary status of each controller. The code version is obtained with the version command.

The following example shows the uptime command entered on the primary controller. The -aoption displays the up time for all slot cards.

admin> uptime -a
06:28:41
{ shelf-1 slot-3 }			8t1-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1 slot-12 }			hdlc2-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1 slot-16 }			csmx-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1 slot-19 }			hdlc2-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1 slot-23		}	csmx-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1 slot-32		}	hdlc2-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1	slot-34	}	4ether2-card		0	days 00:08:53		8.0
{ shelf-1	left-controller }			[...]	0 days		00:40:37 ( SECONDARY )
{ shelf-1	right-controller }			[...]	0 days		00:41:21	( PRIMARY )

The following example shows the uptime command entered on the secondary controller:

admin> uptime -a
06:28:26
{	shelf-1	left-controller }	[...]	0 days	00:40:37	( SECONDARY )
{	shelf-1	right-controller }	[...]	0 days	00:41:21	( PRIMARY )

Viewing controller status

The show command reports the communications status of the primary and secondary controllers and indicates which controller (left or right) is the primary and secondary shelf controller.

When the show command is entered on either the primary or secondary shelf controller, UP is reported for the other controller’s status if the current controller is able to communicate with the other controller. DOWN is displayed if the other controller is present but not communicating with the current controller. If the other controller is not present, the status of that controller is reported as ABSENT with the show -acommand.

The following example displays the show command entered on the primary controller, when the right controller is primary:

admin> show
Controller {	right-controller } ( PRIMARY ):
{ left-controller )			UP	( SECONDARY )
{ shelf-1	slot-1 0 }		DOWN	ether3-card
{ shelf-1	slot-3 0 }		UP	8t1-card
{ shelf-1	slot-12 0 }		UP	hdlc2-card
{ shelf-1	slot-16 0 }		UP	csmx-card
{ shelf-1	slot-19 0 }		UP	hdlc2-card
{ shelf-1	slot-23 0	}	UP	csmx-card
{ shelf-1	slot-32 0	}	UP	hdlc2-card
{ shelf-1	slot-34 0	}	UP	4ether2-card
