    About this Book General This book has the information needed to monitor, test, and maintain the Avaya software running on Avaya DEFINITY ® Server SI, and covers ™ MultiVantage many of the faults and troubles that can occur in the system. Most maintenance requirements are simple procedures due to the modular, self-testing nature of the system.
  • Page 28: Conventions Used In This Document

    About this Book Each DEFINITY Server has a customer system manager who is responsible for administration of the system. The maintenance technician should work closely with the system manager. This book is not intended to solve all levels of troubles. It is limited to troubles that can be solved by using the Alarm Log, Error Log, trouble-clearing procedures, maintenance tests, and traditional troubleshooting methods.

    Maintenance Architecture The maintenance subsystem is a part of the software that initializes and maintains the system. The software continuously monitors system health, and keeps a record of errors detected in the system. The maintenance subsystem also provides a user interface for on-demand testing. This chapter provides a brief description of the maintenance strategy and the background information on the system’s overall functions.

    Alarm and Error Reporting Alarm and Error Reporting During normal operations, software or firmware may detect error conditions relevant to specific MOs. The system attempts to fix or circumvent these problems automatically. However, if a hardware component incurs too many errors, an alarm is raised.
  • Page 44: Maintenance Testing

    Maintenance Architecture Maintenance Testing Most troubles are reduced to the circuit pack level and can be identified by LEDs on the circuit packs and software reports generated by the system. The maintenance tests in the system are divided into three groups: Periodic Background tests are performed by software maintenance, usually on an hourly basis.

  • Page 51 Protocols Data cannot be carried over analog facilities unless inside the system it is represented as a Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)-encoded analog signal. To do this for data originating at a digital terminal, the signal enters the system at a digital port and exits the system at a digital port. The signal then reenters the system through a modem-pool connection (data-module to modem to analog-port) and exits the system again at an analog port.

When a station conferences in a ringing station and then drops the call, the ringing station is treated like a party without disconnect supervision.

  • Page 205: Reliability Systems: A Maintenance Aid

    Reliability Systems: A Maintenance General A High or Critical Reliability system provides highly-available call processing because single points-of-failure in the system that result in loss of call processing are minimized. Such a system Uses existing duplicated TDM buses Duplicates the SPE, translation card, and Tone-Clock circuit pack Packet bus redundancy Each of these components are single points of failure in a standard reliability system.
  • Page 206 Reliability Systems: A Maintenance Aid Under normal conditions, the system operates using both TDM Buses. If the system detects transmission problems on one of the buses, it takes that bus out of service and operates with only one bus, but also reduces capacity. However, if the system detects a problem with one of the Tone-Clock circuit packs, it is able to take that circuit pack out of service without any impact on system capacity or performance.
  • Page 207: Reliability Options

    Reliability Options Reliability Options Standard, High and Critical reliability systems offer an increased level of reliability by duplicating various components so that standby components can take over (interchange) when a failure occurs on an active component. Most interchanges take place with no disruption of current service and allow for repairs to be made without disruption.

Additionally, these systems duplicate components of Port Network Connectivity (PNC) and of other components that are critical to the viability of each EPN.

If an error is encountered during the copy or validation process on the standby, an error is logged in the software error log. Because the data consistency audit discovers that the two patch files are inconsistent, the user must manually copy the valid file on the active processor over to the standby processor.

    Tools for Packet Bus Fault Isolation and Correction The Maintenance/Test Packet Bus port (described in detail later in this chapter) can give the remote technician information about the state of the packet bus. This information can be obtained via the status system command and via the PKT-BUS test sequence.
  • Page 756: Packet Bus

    Packet Bus Fault Isolation and Correction Packet Bus Each port network has its own packet bus, and, accordingly, there is one packet bus MO in each port network. The packet bus is not duplicated, as is the TDM Bus. However, there are several spare leads on the packet bus and, in high and critical reliability systems, these spare leads are used to recover from some failures on the packet bus.
  • Page 757: Circuit Packs That Use The Packet Bus

    Circuit Packs That Use the Packet Bus Packet bus faults do not necessarily cause service interruptions. However, most packet bus shorts do cause these interruptions. Depending on what leads are defective, the system may be able to recover and continue to communicate. This can be detrimental because it makes isolating the fault difficult.
  • Page 758 Packet Bus Fault Isolation and Correction TN556, TN2198 and TN2208 ISDN-BRI circuit packs [BRI-BD, BRI-PORT, ABRI-PORT, BRI-SET, BRI-DAT, ASAI-ADJ] provides connections for ISDN-BRI station sets and data modules and for ASAI adjuncts. The Packet Bus is used to carry signaling information for sets and data modules.
  • Page 759 Circuit Packs That Use the Packet Bus TN556 ISDN-BRI Circuit Pack. A failure of the ISDN-BRI circuit pack typically causes some or all ISDN-BRI sets and data modules and/or an ASAI adjunct connected to the circuit pack to fail to function. If the failure is on the Packet Bus interface, the Packet Bus may be alarmed as well.
