Test Sys-Link - Avaya DEFINITY Server CSI Maintenance Manual

Maintenance Commands

test sys-link

Use test sys-link to validate a link, and run diagnostic tests on the hardware
objects that comprises the system link. If the current or faulted options are
specified, tests are run on all hardware objects that comprise the specified link. If
current or faulted is not specified, only the end-to-end sys-link connection is
tested.
The hardware path that comprises a system link consists of up to 21 hardware
components that affect the behavior of the link. The number of components of a
given system link hardware path depends on the system configuration and type of
system link.
