Maintenance Commands

reset spe-standby
reset spe-standby
level# [tape]
This resets the standby SPE on a system with duplicated SPEs to a specified
level. The command is increasingly destructive as the reset level increases. On a
system with disk and tape devices, the reset is executed using the boot image
stored on disk unless a reset of level 4 (reboot) with the “tape” qualifier is
requested. During the reset, the standby SPE is taken out of service for several
minutes. Reset status can be monitored with the
status spe
command.
During a reset of any level, memory shadowing is turned off. After the reset
completes, memory shadowing is automatically restored and a memory refresh
of the standby takes place. The standby is not fully in service until the refresh is
complete.
Reset spe-standby
invokes initialization of the standby in the same
fashion as low level maintenance. The reset level requested will not be escalated
by software. The level requested will always be the level that is performed.
Any reset of the standby SPE turns off shadowing, leaving the standby SPE
unrefreshed. It may take several minutes before the standby is available for
service.
