Description
The busyout journal-printer command will put the maintenance object associated
with a specified pms-log or wakeup-log link in a maintenance busy state. There
will be no periodic or scheduled tests performed on the busied out maintenance
object until it is released. Also, no activity will occur over the links (i.e. no data will
be transferred to the printer) and the link will be dropped. Warning alarms are
generated (error type 18) on each maintenance object busied out, so that INADS
can access the state of the objects. The release journal-printer command will
return the object to operation.
A link is comprised of several components. It involves a far end data module, a
simulated data channel on a PKTINT board, a manager that initiates and
maintains the link, and a controller/protocol that services the link. A
controller/protocol is usually a transient process that exists for as long as the link
is up. A link is considered up if a physical connection is established. A link can
be considered to be up while no useful work can be performed over it, in this
case the link is insane and should be torn down. These links provide
asynchronous data connections from the switch to peripherals.
For general information on journal printer links, see the second paragraph in the
Description section of the ‘‘
busyout pms-link’’ manual pages.
