■ If the maintenance activity is Scheduled Maintenance, and if the
refresh spe-standby or busyout spe-standby command is issued
before a scheduled translation save is performed, the translation
save is not completed, and the translation data on both the Active
SPE and Standby SPE and on the memory cards do not reflect the
changes made since the last translation save.
In general, after a refresh spe-standby has been used, and after the user
has finished working with the system, the test spe-standby long
command should be issued in the event that the refresh spe-standby
command preempted a Standby SPE maintenance activity. Testing the
standby SPE allows standby maintenance to re-determine the health of the
standby SPE and to compare this health to that of the active SPE. This
testing could result in an SPE interchange to a healthier SPE.
If the busyout spe-standby command has been used, the release
spe-standby command should also be used. The latter command fully
tests the standby SPE 1 minute later.
Also, if the refresh spe-standby or busyout spe-standby command was
used within the time frame that scheduled maintenance with a translation
save was to have been conducted, the save translation command should
be issued to ensure that the current translation data has been written to the
Active SPE and Standby SPE tapes.
When using the refresh spe-standby to preempt Standby SPE
maintenance activities, it may be necessary to issue the refresh
spe-standby command multiple times in order to preempt all Standby SPE
maintenance activity. If the refresh spe-standby command successfully
completes 5 times without the Standby SPE becoming labeled “standby”
on the status system form, wait 20 minutes. This does not include cases
where the command completes with the terminal message line errors
“Refresh not successful; use ‘display errors’ to check for STBY-SPE errors”
or “Cannot interrupt Standby SPE while entering maintenance mode;
please try later”. Issue the refresh spe-standby command once more. If
the Standby SPE is not labeled “standby” on the status system form after
this attempt, use the busyout spe-standby command.
■ reset spe-standby <level>
Normally, when the standby is brought into maintenance mode, it is done
so with a Warm Restart. The reset spe-standby command can be used to
bring the standby SPE from standby mode into maintenance mode with the
requested restart level.
