Starting And Stopping Components - Nortel 201i Maintenance And Diagnostics

October 2006
If the component is currently processing a call, the call is not dropped;
the component remains active until the call is finished.
If the component is not currently in use, it is taken out of service
immediately.
Courtesy stop is preferred over a regular stop.
Stop
A stop takes the component out of service immediately, regardless of
whether the component is currently processing calls. All active calls are
dropped. Typically, you perform a stop only when severe problems that are
affecting a large number of incoming calls occur or if your organization
determines a special need for it.
Components that can be started and stopped
Only the following components can be started and stopped:
Note: If you want to start or stop more than one or two multimedia (DSP) or
call (DS30X) channels, use the Multimedia Monitor or Channel Monitor.
For instructions, see Section C: "Working with the Multimedia and Channel
Monitors" on page 97.
