FAIL The tested Common Shadow Circuit is experiencing time-outs while trying 
to write to the Memory circuit pack over the M-BUS.
1. Verify that there are the same number of PI (Processor Interface) 
circuit packs in each carrier.
2. Verify that there are the same number of PKT-CTRL (Packet Control) 
circuit packs in each carrier.
3. Resolve all other DUPINT (Duplication Interface Circuit Pack), 
SHDW-CIR (Common Shadow Circuit), and PR-MAINT 
(Maintenance/Tape Processor) alarms before addressing this 
problem.
4. Rerun the test. If the test still fails, then the Memory circuit pack on 
the tested carrier is defective or the M-BUS is defective on the 
Standby carrier. Refer to the "Repair Procedures for High and Critical 
Reliability" section in Chapter 6, ‘‘
Reliability Systems: A Maintenance 
Aid’’ and replace the Memory circuit pack.
5. Rerun the test. 
6. Test the Standby SPE with the test standby-pe short command, and 
address all Duplication Interface circuit pack, Common Shadow 
Circuit, and Maintenance/Tape Processor tests that do not pass.
NO 
BOARD
The Duplication Interface circuit pack has failed to handshake with either 
the active Maintenance/Tape Processor (in the case of Duplication 
Interface circuit pack A) or the Duplication Interface circuit pack A (in the 
case of Duplication Interface circuit pack B).
1. Refer to NO BOARD for a description of the Duplication Interface 
Circuit Pack Status Query Test (#315) in DUPINT Maintenance 
documentation.
PASS Part of the Common Shadow Circuit is operating properly. However, Tests 
#283 and #284 must pass before the Common Shadow Circuit on this 
Duplication Interface circuit pack is considered sane.
