clear firmware-counters UUCSS | a-pnc | b-pnc

This command clears the firmware error counters on the specified circuit packs).

This command is valid only for SNI, SNC, and DS1C and ATM-EI board locations.

When a-pnc or b-pnc is specified, every such circuit pack in a single PNC can be

cleared at once. On a critical-reliability system (duplicated PNC), only circuit

packs on a standby PNC that is busied out can be cleared.

This command is useful for quickly clearing lingering alarms after a hardware

problem has been fixed. ( Test clear commands do not clear alarms on SNI, SNC,

and DS1C circuit packs.)

This command can mask actual hardware problems since firmware is

cleared and appears as if no problems were ever encountered.

The specified location must be occupied by an SNI, SNC, or DS1C circuit pack. Every

circuit pack in the standby PNC can be cleared at once by specifying a-pnc or b-pnc.

To do so, the standby PNC must first be busied out.
