Starting and stopping components

Introduction
When you stop a component, you take it out of service and prevent it from
operating. You must stop a component before you can replace it (if the
component is replaceable) or run a diagnostic test on it.
To bring an out-of-service component back into service, you must start it.
Start and stop components from the Maintenance section on the
Maintenance page.
ATTENTION
Stop versus Courtesy stop
The following two methods of taking a component out of service allow you
to choose how active calls are affected:
Courtesy stop
A Courtesy stop takes the component out of service only after the
component has finished processing the active call.
Part 5: 201i Server Maintenance and Diagnostics
Nortel Networks recommends that, if possible, you
courtesy stop a component. Courtesy stop is available
only at the individual channel level.
To courtesy down CallPilot, use the following:
Multimedia Monitor: to courtesy stop a range of
multimedia (DSP) channels
Channel Monitor: to courtesy stop a range of call
(DS30X, also known as DS0) channels
For instructions, see Section C: "Working with the
Multimedia and Channel Monitors" on page 99.
