Reset Level 3 (Communication Manager
reboot)
This is the same as Reset Level 4 (see below). This command is retained for consistency with other
MultiVantage Applications products.
Reset Level 4
Communication Manager reload
CAUTION:
Reset system 4 leads to an interchange of the system’s servers. In response to a level-4
reset, maintenance software downgrades the active server’s state of health (SOH), which
causes the subsequent interchange.
Once the interchange occurs, the system relies on the previous standby’s version of
translations, which may not be current. To avoid an unwanted interchange, busy-out the
standby server before executing reset system 4.
Duration
Typically 11 to 14 minutes
Causes
reset system 4 command from Communication Manager (SAT/ASA)
command line
Escalation from SAT’s reset level 2
Power up
Recovery attempt from server-down mode
Effects
S8100
: Emergency Transfer is invoked.
System software (boot image) is reloaded and every process is re-
initialized.
Communication Manager processes are reloaded.
Before reboot, the system attempts to save the alarm and error logs.
After reboot, error and alarm logs are restored.
Some error and alarm information may be lost if the last save before the
reboot save does not succeed.
Other effects are the same as those in reset level 2, except that more
extensive diagnostics are performed.
A core dump is automatically enabled for this reset level and is saved to
the
/var/log/defty/dumps/
directory. The reboot is delayed until
the core dump is finished.
