ABORT The Active SPE attempted to put the Standby SPE into Maintenance Mode, but 
did not receive notification from the Standby SPE Maintenance software that it 
successfully entered Maintenance Mode OR, once in Maintenance Mode, the 
Standby SPE sent a request to the Active SPE to have the Active SPE conduct 
a portion of a test in the Standby SPE’s behalf, but the Standby SPE did not 
receive a response to its request. In either case, the communication path 
between the Active SPE and the Standby SPE may have failed. Follow the 
procedures described for Error Code 2024 in the STBY-SPE section.
2018 ABORT The test requires that a maintenance activity request be made to the Standby 
SPE; however, the request cannot be made because the Standby SPE is busy 
processing a previous maintenance activity request.
1. Issue the refresh spe-standby command to force the Standby SPE to 
Standby Mode. This command may have to be issued multiple times. If the 
refresh spe-standby command successfully completes five times without 
the Standby SPE becoming labeled "standby" on the status system form, 
wait 30 minutes. This does not include cases where the command 
completes with the terminal message line errors "Refresh not successful; 
use ‘display errors’ to check for STBY-SPE errors" or "Cannot interrupt 
Standby SPE while entering maintenance mode; please try later." Issue the 
refresh spe-standby command once more.
2. Repeat the test.
3. Issue the test spe-standby long command to thoroughly test all Standby 
SPE components.
2019 ABORT A translation save on the Standby SPE was not carried out because the 
Shadow Link Test failed. (The Shadow Link Test was done to verify the integrity 
of the translation data on the Standby SPE.)
1. Check for Memory Shadowing Link errors and alarms. Refer to SHDW-LNK 
(Memory Shadowing Link) Maintenance documentation and follow the 
prescribed procedures.
