Hello,
I am getting a busy signal when I try to call into my Definity G1 PBX through the INAD number.
I have displayed the Netcon port and one of them shows busy.
I cannot busy and release the ports.
Can anyone tell me how to reset the port without powering down the equipment.
Thanks
 
Sounds like they are all hung up.

A "reset system 1" will clean all this up for you.

It does a internal hardware reset and will not affect any calls in connection or drop anyone from the switch.

Do not use 2-5 though!!!!!

Hey Netcon1,
Thanks for the Tip.

It worked !!

Just Curious though.

What do the 2-5 parameters do and is there any information
that I can get to explain each option

Thanks again

Reset Level 1 (Warm Restart)
Duration Up to 10 seconds, typically 2 seconds
Causes reset system 1 command
Spontaneous SPE interchange (those c aused b y hardware
faults)
Software faults that are non-service affecting
Abort of pl anned SPE interchange
Hardware bus errors
TN1655 Packet Interface faults

Effects
Stable calls are preserved.
System links, and stable feature and service state data are
preserved.
Error and alarm logs are preserved, but all alarms are resolved
except for STBY-SPE and busyouts.
Transient calls (not yet connected), and some user stimuli, are
dropped.
New calls are not processed during the reset.
G3-MT logins, including remote access and system port logins,
are dropped.
If the reset resulted from a spontaneous SPE interchange,
memory shadowing is turned off, and the standby SPE wi ll not
be available for service until memory is refreshed (several
minutes).
Application links such as those to AUDIX and CDR are
dropped and reestablished in under 2 1/2 minutes. (BX.25 links
are not dropped, and CDR data is buffered during the outage.)
MSS activity is aborted.
Translation data is preserved, but if translation changes were in
progress, the reset is escalated to Reset Level 3 (Cold-1).
If core dump is enabled for this reset level, reset is delayed
until the core dump is complete.

Reset Level 2 (Cold-2 Restart)
Duration Up to 3.75 minutes
Causes reset system 2 command
Escalation from reset level 1
An attempted reset level 1 during a PNC interchange
TDM-bus clock recovery on the PPN
Spontaneous interchange into an unrefreshed standby SPE

Effects
All system and application links are dropped.
All calls are dropped.
Non-translation feature data, such as Automatic Wakeup calls,
are lost and must be reentered.
All G3-MT logins, including remote access and system port
logins, are dropped.
Initialization firmware runs diagnostics and displays results on
the G3-MT screen.
SPE memory shadowi ng is turned off, leaving the standby SPE
unavailable for service for several minutes.
All hardware components, except PNC components, are reset,
including the EPNs. All standby Expansion Interfaces, and the
active EI in the PPN are reset. SNIs, SNCs, DS1Cs and active
EIs in the EPNs are not reset.
If the PNC is duplicated, a global refresh of the standby PNC is
performed after the reset.
All busied out maintenance objects are released and must be
rebusied, if so desired.
Circuit packs are reinitialized, (translations are verified by
comparison to physical board locations).
If core dump is enabled for this reset level, reset is delayed
until the core dump is complete.
Error and alarm logs are preserved, but all alarms are resolved
except for STBY-SPE and busyouts.

Reset Level 3 (Cold-1 Restart)
Reset Level 4 (Reboot)
Duration Up to 6.5 minutes
Causes reset system 3 command
Escalation from reset level 2
Translation loading fault
Spontaneous interchange into an unrefreshed standby SPE

Effects
Actions and effects are the same as for reset level 2, plus the
following:
Emergency transfer is invoked.
Translations are reloaded from disk or removable media.
If core dump is enabled for this reset level, reset is delayed
until the core dump is complete.
Translations entered by users since the last save translation
was executed by command or by scheduled maintenance are
lost.
Duration Typically 8 to 11 minutes

Causes reset system 4 command
Escalation from reset level 3
Power up
Recovery at tempt from SPE-down mode (requested b y reboot
command, or automatically every 20 minutes)
Spontaneous interchange into an unrefreshed standby SPE
Effects System software (boot image) is reloaded, and all processes
are reinitialized
The disk, if present and healthy, is the default device from
which the software is loaded. Otherwise, the reload is taken
from removable media
Before reboot, the system attempts to save the alarm and error
logs to the disk on the active SPE
After reboot, error and al arm logs are restored from the SPE
that is active coming out of the reboot. (Note that this means
that some error and alarm information may be lost if the last
save b ef ore the reboot save d oes not succ eed or if an SPE
interchange takes place)
Other effects are the same as those in reset level 3, except that
more extensive diagnostics are performed.
If reboot fail s, SPE-down mode is invoked.
If a core dump is enabled for this reset level via the set vector
command, the reboot is delayed until the core dump has
completed.

Reset Level 5 (Extended Reboot)
Duration Up to 25 minutes
Causes reset system 5 command
This reset is invoked only by command

Effects
Effects are the same as for a level 4 reboot except that more
extensive diagnostics are performed.
This reset is used to diagnose SPE component failures not
detected by level 4 reboot tests.


Fingers are tired now!!!
