General Maintenance Procedures
Checking the System
1. Click Maintenance Commands in the System Administration Tool.

- SH ST AL: Checks for system alarms. There should be no alarms.
- DBMS STAT: Checks the status of the initialized flag. The flag is
on if the system is in sync. If the flag is off, enter DBMS Save.
- PROG R DIS: Displays the scheduled system reset. By default, the
system reboots at 2:15 a.m. daily ONLY if there is memory
fragmentation. To force a system reboot at the scheduled time, see
the Programmed Reboot command.
-ME S: Checks the status of the communication links. All links
should be open.

- DBMS CH B or F: Brief checks the sanity of the database. Full
checks the sanity and the current status of the database.

Maintenance Logs - All to see all maintenance logs.
4. Check that you have recent backups of the database and hard drive.
Checking Controller Hardware Profile
1. Click System Hardware Modules in the System Administration Tool.
2. Click System Hardware Compute Cards for data on the RTC / E2T.
• Verify that the IP address of the E2T is the correct one.
• Slot 1 is always the RTC. For a 100-User controller, this form
displays the details on the RTC only.
• Verify the value of the Core Speed field:
For a 133 MHz system, the value is 132000000.
For a 300 MHz system, the value is 297000000.
For a 450 MHz system, the value is 450000000.
Tip: You should make a backup at least once a week. Keep a copy of the
last 3 backups.
