2020 ABORT The test requires that a maintenance activity request be made to the Standby
SPE; however, the request cannot be made because the Active SPE was
restarted within the last five minutes and has not yet initialized the Standby
SPE. Therefore, the Standby SPE is not available to handle maintenance
activity requests.
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 20 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. If the Active SPE was restarted with a Cold 1 or a reboot, issue the test
spe-standby long command to thoroughly test all Standby SPE
components.
2021 ABORT An attempt to refresh Standby SPE memory from Active SPE memory
encountered a problem. In this case, the refresh from Active SPE Memory to
Standby SPE Memory probably succeeded. However, the following steps
should be followed just to verify that there are no problems.
1. Check for Active SPE Memory errors and alarms. Refer to MEM-BD
(Memory circuit pack) Maintenance and follow the prescribed
maintenance procedures.
2. Issue the refresh spe-standby command. 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 20 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.
2022 ABORT The Active SPE successfully put the Standby SPE into Maintenance Mode but
received an incorrect response to a maintenance activity request that it made
to the Standby SPE 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 received an incorrect response
to its request. 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.
