action of busying out the desired Expansion Interface circuit pack WILL
DISRUPT SERVICE TO THE EPN until the Expansion Interface circuit pack is
released from the busyout state. If the Expansion Interface circuit pack is part of
a PPN to EPN link, the EPN WILL BE WITHOUT SERVICE. If the Expansion
Interface circuit pack is part of an EPN to EPN link CALLS BETWEEN THE TWO
EPNs WILL BE DENIED.
If the system has working duplicate Expansion Interface Links, and the
Expansion Interface circuit pack to be reset is part of the Active Expansion
Interface Link, the system does not allow the busyout and instructs system
technician to switch Expansion Interface Links via the set expansion-link PCSS
command where PCSS is the address of either Standby Expansion Interface
circuit pack on the Standby link. After executing the Expansion Interface Link
switch, it is possible to busyout and then reset the original Expansion Interface
circuit pack.
However, if the EPN Maintenance (MAINT) circuit pack determines that the
Expansion Interface (EXP-INTF) circuit pack is cycling between sane and insane
several times within several minutes, MAINT may inhibit operation of the
EXP-INTF by holding the Expansion Interface circuit pack in a reset state. This
condition may result in an unsuccessful reset of the Expansion Interface circuit
pack.
If the reset command returns with "EPN is unavailable," execute the following
steps:
1. Use the change circuit-pack P command where P is the port network
number of the EPN.
2. For the Expansion Interface circuit pack you wish to reset, add an entry to
the Circuit Pack form for the TN776 or TN570 Expansion Interface circuit
pack. Be sure to enter the appropriate carrier and slot (that is, A01 or
B02).
3. Enter the form.
4. Repeat the reset board command.
