6.12 Recovery Procedures
There are three system startup modes:
• Initial start
• Cold restart
• Hot restart
6.12.1 Initial Start
An initial start is used the first time the system is started, or if a
completely new configuration is to be managed. The main actions
performed at initial start are:
1. Restart all boards in the system using a cold restart;
2. Restart all CP software modules;
3. All database tables are cleared;
4. The current configuration is read from the configuration files;
5. The event log is emptied;
6. The alarm log is reset.
The configuration data is used to find all preconfigured boards and to
set-up preconfigured cross connections. The system remains in this
state until all expected boards have been searched and found or timed-
out. During this time all attempts to manipulate boards or cross
connections will be rejected.
6.12.2 Cold Restart
Cold restart may be applied to one board or to the complete system.
Cold restart also involves the system hardware, that is traffic is
interrupted.
6.12.2.1 System Cold Restart
A cold start is initiated the first time a system is started, or the system
has failed a hot restart. When the system is cold restarted:
• All CP and board software is restarted as well as all board
software.
• Process and board configuration data is cleared.
• The configuration is read from the database.
