Appendix BCautions for RoutineMaintenance
Table B-1 Cautions for Routine Maintenance
Operation Caution Possible Results Caused by Misoperation
Do not unplug online
active board.
l The data synchronization between active and standby boards
requires a particular period when the standby board operates
properly. When the active board is unplugged online, the latest
data on it cannot be completely and automatically backed
up to the standby board, but the system will switch over the
boards automatically. It will easily cause statistical errors and
data loss.
l When the standby board operates improperly, this operation
will interrupt all the service processing of corresponding
module, resulting in partial or global service block in the
system.
Do not press the RST
button on the board
panel at will.
l A board will implement the hardware reset by force in case
of the RST button on the board panel being pressed. Only
qualified maintenance personnel can press it when serious
fault occurs in the system.
l Pressing the RST button on the active board panel will reset
the active board. The consequence is the same as that of
"Unplugging online active board".
Board-related
operations
Do not plug and unplug
boards without wearing
antistatic wrist straps.
The static electricity on human bodies may cause great damage to
the components. If installed or removed without wearing antistatic
wrist straps, the boards may get damaged or operate unstably.
Cable-related
operations
Do not plug or unplug
network cables inside
the cabinet at will.
This operation probably will interrupt services and the
communication between the front-end and back-end systems.
Power-supply-
related operations
Do not operate the power
switches on the cabinet
at will.
You can operate various power switches by following operation
procedure only when serious fault occurs in the system, or
during network upgrade, network expansion, and component
replacement. This operation will stop system operation and
interrupt services.
