Test Duplication Option Processing Element Interchange

Return to Task List

The process of the standby Processing Element (PE) taking over for the active PE is referred to as a PE Interchange. This interchange should not be performed immediately after powering up the system. Wait a few minutes to allow the system to complete its internal tests. The system default is PE_B after powering up the system, so the active PE should be the B processor for this test, and the interchange should make PE_A the active PE. Verify the system can successfully perform a PE interchange.

  1. At the management terminal, verify the screen displays PE_B in the upper right corner.

  2. Type check status and press Enter. Verify PE_B is in the standby mode. If it is, proceed to Step 4. If it is not, proceed to Step 3.

  3. Type refresh-spr-standby and press Enter.

  4. Type reset system interchange and press Enter. The management terminal will be logged off and a beep will be heard.

  5. Login and verify that the screen displays PE_A in the upper right corner.


Note: Processor A's yellow light is on and its green LED is off. Processor B's yellow and green LEDs are off. The system is alarm free.

  1. Make system test call. The call must complete and the conversation must be satisfactory.
