Office Data; Resident Programs; Nonresident Programs - Nortel 1000M Overview

Office data
Office data describes the characteristics of the system in terms of
configuration and call-dependent information, such as features and services.
Office data is arranged in blocks defining IPE, system configuration, and
transient data.

Resident programs

Resident programs are always available in memory during system operation.
Some resident programs are permanently programmed into the ROM
portion of system memory. Other resident programs are automatically
loaded into system memory at system power-up.
Resident programs include:
•

All software programs, including the nonresident programs listed in the
following section are resident in, and accessible from, the memory on the
cards listed above.

Nonresident programs

Nonresident programs are stored on data disks and loaded into the overlay
area of system memory to perform specific tasks. They are removed from
the overlay area when no longer required. Nonresident programs can be
loaded automatically, under program control, or manually, through software
commands.
Nonresident programs are manually loaded into memory through the system
terminal (or maintenance telephone). A terminal can be configured as an
input-only, output-only, or input and output device.
