To return the standby SPE to service, see the following section on
‘‘Bringing the
SPE Back into Service’’.
NOTE:
The physical connection of the terminal to the STANDBY connector while
the SPE is locked standby with the SPE-Select switches prevents the
Standby Maintenance Monitor (SMM) from running. Any reboot command
to the standby while it is in the locked state will abort.
Using the SPE-Down Interface
When one of the above prompts appear, you may enter Spe-down interface
commands. These are executed by the Low-level Maintenance Monitor (LMM),
which is firmware resident on the processor board for controlling initialization and
recovery actions, and processor and memory diagnostics.
Communications with the terminal are handled by the SYSAM board. If a remote
access port (SYSAM-RMT) call is received while in this mode, it will preempt
access by the local MT, and this message will be displayed:
When the call is completed or dropped, the prompt will return. Note that the
SPE-down interface to an SPE that is locked standby is never available to the
remote access port, because the standby SPE is isolated from the active SYSAM
circuit pack.
A limited set of commands is available to the SPE-down interface, as follows.
Local Terminal session overridden by remote access
KEYBOARD LOCKED, WAIT FOR SYSAM OR LOGIN PROMPT
