Recovery Procedure for a MASP Card

  1. Enter the following command to retrieve the terminal types and port numbers:
    rtrv-trm
  2. Enter the following command to inhibit each OAP terminal displayed in the output from 1:
    inh-trm:trm=x
    where x is the port number.

    Note:

    The force parameter is required for the last OAP terminal inhibited.
  3. Enter the following command to check the database level on all cards:
    rept-stat-db:display=all

    Pay special attention to note the database levels on both the active and standby current partitions and the levels represented on all the network cards. It is important that the database level of the network cards matches the database level of the active MASP.

    Note:

    If the database on the OAM is repaired and ends up at a lower level than the network cards, the system must be initialized.
  4. If neither database is at the same level as the network cards, contact My Oracle Support (MOS).
  5. Depending on what the message indicates, do one of the following:
    • If the active fixed disk is inconsistent, continue with 6.
    • If the standby fixed disk is inconsistent, continue with 9.
    • If both fixed disks are inconsistent, continue with 14.
  6. Enter the following command on the active GPSM-II card to force it to become standby:
    init-card:loc=xxxx

    where xxxx is the card location stenciled on the shelf of the system.

  7. Enter the following command to log back into the system:
    login:uid=xxxx

    where xxxx is the User ID.

  8. Enter the following command to check the database level on all cards:
    rept-stat-db:display=all

    Pay special attention to note the database levels on both the active and standby current partitions and the levels represented on all the network cards. It is important that the database level of the network cards matches the database level of the active MASP.

    Note:

    If the database on the OAM is repaired and ends up at a lower level than the network cards, the system must be initialized.
  9. Enter the following command to copy the current and backup database partitions on the active fixed disk, to the current and backup database partitions on the standby fixed disk:
    chg-db:action=repair

    After the command is executed, the standby GPSM-II card reboots, the old database data is purged from memory, and the new database is loaded.

  10. After the card has been reloaded (a message appears to confirm completion of the load), enter the following command to verify the database is consistent (same level as the other cards in the system):
    rept-stat-db:display=all
    1. If standby and current active databases are consistent, continue with 11.
    2. If the current active or standby database is inconsistent, continue with 13.
  11. Enter the following command to return the OAP terminals to the in-service state:
    alw-trm:trm=x

    where x is the port number of the terminals of type OAP from 1.

  12. For more information on database management, refer to the Database Administration Manual - System Management.
    STOP! YOU HAVE COMPLETED THIS PROCEDURE.
  13. Enter the following command for the inconsistent fixed disk:
    tst-disk:loc=xxxx

    where xxxx is the location of the inconsistent fixed disk. When the command completes, continue with 14.

  14. Contact My Oracle Support (MOS).
