Explanation
Specifies the initial operating status of the pack as follows:
- Available
- The digital trunk adapter is present but is not ready to communicate
with the trunk. The trunk is not ready to process calls. Use the System
Monitor from the Operations menu to enable the pack and set
the channels Inservice.
- Defined
- The pack and associated trunk interface are fully disabled. Defined is a place holder until the digital trunk adapter is physically installed
in the pSeries computer.
- Enabled
- The required microcode is loaded and diagnostics are run. The pack cannot
be used, however, until you put the relevant channels In Service by using
the System Monitor option on the Operations menu.
- Inservice
- The required microcode is loaded and diagnostics are run (this takes
about a minute) and the pack is ready to process calls. The channels are set
to Inservice: ready to make or receive calls. This is the normal setting when
you are using the system in production.
