Rebooting the SLC ConnectReach System

Introduction
Performing a warm-
start reboot
Performing a
cold-start Reboot
9-20 Issue 4 June 2002
There are two methods of rebooting the SLC ConnectReach system; the warm-
start reboot and the cold-start reboot. A description of each method is given in the
following sections. The method you use to reboot the SLC ConnectReach system
depends on what you need to accomplish.
The warm-start command is typically used when you have changed and saved
configuration values and want the SLC ConnectReach system to begin using the
new values.
NOTE:
If you change the beginning channel number of any range in the DS0
Provisioning menu and do a warm-start, the system will automatically
prompt you that it will perform a cold-start.
Using the warm-start command to reboot a SLC ConnectReach system
providing TR-08 service and feeding a SLC-2000 HDT only affects data and new
voice connections. Existing voice connections may have their speech path
interrupted for up to one tenth of a second during the restart process. During the
time it takes the system software to reinitialize and read the saved configuration
information (up to 35 seconds), new voice connections cannot be made and data
connections will be interrupted. Using the warm-start command to rebooting a
SLC ConnectReach system providing TR-303 service drops all existing calls.
To initiate a warm-start reboot, select the warm-start command from the SLC
ConnectReach system Main Menu.
Performing a cold-start command is the equivalent of cycling power to the
SLC ConnectReach system. All connections (both voice and data) are interrupted,
and new connections cannot be made during the time it takes for the hardware to
initialize and run the self-test routines and the system software to initialize and
read saved configuration information (approximately 35 seconds).
The cold-start command is used when an error condition can only be resolved
by completely reinitializing the SLC ConnectReach system. In addition, a cold
start is required if you change the starting channel of the analog range in the
DS0-provisioning menu.
