NBase-Xyplex MAXserver 1608A Getting Started page 139

If a failure occurs during the dump process, the MAXserver will abort the
dump and attempt to dump to the next dump server, until the dump server
list is exhausted. After the dump process completes, the MAXserver selects
the load server with the next highest merit value on the load offer list. If the
load list is exhausted, the MAXserver will restart the loading process.
Parameter Loading Problems
If the MAXserver is configured to load parameters from the network (rather
than local Non-volatile storage- NVS), the unit requests a parameter file
from the parameter server. If a parameter file is not sent from the server,
the MAXserver will wait indefinitely for the parameter file.
The following message types can be generated during the parameter file load
sequence. The process is similar to the load process:
REQUESTING PARAMETER LOAD SERVICE
This message (or a similar message) displays while the MAXserver waits for
a response to the parameter load request. If this message displays for more
than 5 seconds after you type several <RETURN>s, the MAXserver is not
configured on a load server for parameter load service.
