7.2.2.1 Role of Aastra Management Portal (AMP) in maintenance
Within the framework of maintenance, Aastra Management Portal is used to perform
investigations or maintenance operations. See also Aastra Management Portal operating
manual (Document [1]).
Hardware start-up tests
Hardware start-up tests take place automatically each time the iPBX is reset.
For Aastra XD, the behaviour then varies, depending on whether the system is simplex or
duplex:
• In simplex mode, the status of the UCV-D card changes immediately to "Active".
• In duplex mode, the status of the UCV-D card changes to "Active" if it is not out of
service and if the other UCV-D card is not itself "Active".
Nota : Only a hardware problem prevents the active card from working correctly;
otherwise an intentional removal of the active card triggers a switchover to the
passive card, which takes over and becomes active.
For any iPBX range, the hardware start-up test consists in completing the initialisation of
the active CPU card, identifying the card resources, and identifying the hardware
configuration (number of cabinets, equipment cards, presence of power supply modules
and, for the AXD, presence of the IUCV-D card, presence of the passive UCV-D card,
status of the active UCV-D card, etc.).
A series of tests are then performed on the main functions of the active CPU card. The
entire hardware start-up tests are divided into phases then each phase into tests. The
results of these tests are gradually d isplayed on the user console.
Hardware start-up tests are never blocking, except in the absence of the i-button; since
this component is the key used to access the various optional software functions.
