C300 Redundancy-related notifications 
This section provides listings of redundancy-related notifications implemented for the 
C300 Controller.  Table 13 lists notifications along with their descriptions that may occur 
during controller synchronization and switchover operations. 
 
Table 13  Redundancy-Related Notifications 
 
The secondary generates the Backup State Change Event
 
as part of event regeneration.  A transition to the Backup
 
State only occurs as part of startup or a redundancy role
 
change.  In both of these cases, any previously existing
 
notification connection is broken, a new notification
 
connection is reformed, and event regeneration is
 
commanded. 
The primary and secondary are configured for redundancy
 
but the redundant pair is not synchronized or not in standby.
 
The primary is configured for redundancy through C300
 
block load of the MODISREDUN parameter.  A secondary
 
can only be in the secondary role if, retention startup
 
remembered that it was previously configured redundant,
 
and the C300 is configured with the even Device Index. 
 
The "Not Synchronized" alarm returns to normal upon
 
configuring the primary at the odd Device Index as non-
 
redundant or upon entering the Synchronized or Standby
 
state. 
Redun Incompatible
 
Partner 
Both the primary and secondary controllers generate this
 
notification upon determining that their partner module is not
 
compatible for attempting initial-sync. 
Both the primary and secondary controllers generate this
 
notification when the partner is not present. 
 
Note that the primary controller only generates this
 
notification when it is either explicitly or implicitly configured
 
for redundant behavior.  Explicit redundancy configuration
 
occurs when the C300 block is loaded with MODISREDUN
 
set ON, and implicit redundancy configuration occurs in the
 
absence of any configuration, (C300 in the NODB state). 
Only the controller explicitly configured non-redundant
 
generates this notification when the partner is not present. 
Both the primary and secondary controllers generate this
 
notification upon detecting a compatible partner visible
