Feature Intera c tions
The maintenance of a particular component on a link may interfere with the maintenance of the link itself. Maintenance can put a link component in a busy state causing link set-up to fail. Frequent attempts at re-setup of a link may delay the recovery of a faulty component due to the maintenance test of a component only taking place when the component is idle. Therefo re, the technician needs to be able to disable the attempted re-setup of a link. The busyout command is used to do this and causes the link to be torn down. If the link is already down, the busyout command stops periodic re-setup tries on the link.
1. If no alarms are registe red against the maintenance object then the test seque nce is run only once. The
long
clear
option forces a clear of all alarms if no errors are encountered during testing. The
short clear
option only
clears alarms pertinent to tests in the short sequen ce.
2. Refer to the Report Scheduler an d System Printer feature specifica tion for more details.
