1. The "MAJOR" alarm occurs only at power-up time or on a Reset System 3, 4, or 5 when the switch
cannot load all translations from the memory card.
This maintenance object monitors the flash memory of the system. A memory
card contains a set of flash EPROM memory devices. The data can be stored in a
memory card and can remain nonvolatile, even when the power is off. The
memory card is installed into the Processor circuit pack to save the translations,
announcements, and core dumps. During the system reboot or a system power
down condition, the in-core system maintenance hardware error logs are
temporarily saved in the memory card before the system goes down. When the
system is restarted, the error logs file is read back from the memory card.
The Hard Patch feature also uses the memory card as temporary storage when
LMM applies an update file to the in-core system software. The system software is
stored in the "flash" section of main memory. The memory card used for saving
translations doesn't contain a copy of the system software.
The recommended size of a memory card for each configuration is described in
the following table.
