3.1.2 Relationship Between Maintenance Parts and Types of Maintenance


3.1.2 Relationship Between Maintenance Parts and Types of Maintenance
The type of maintenance applicable to a maintenance part depends on whether the part belongs to all the physical partitions and whether it requires powering off of the crossbar boxes.
Parts mounted in the crossbar box, XSCF DUAL control cables, and XSCF BB control cables connecting between crossbar boxes belong to all the physical partitions.
Out of them, the following maintenance parts do not require powering off of the crossbar boxes when they are replaced. Therefore, you can perform maintenance work without stopping the physical partitions (active/hot maintenance).
  1. XSCF unit
  2. XSCF DUAL control cable
  3. XSCF BB control cable connecting between crossbar boxes
  4. Fan unit (for redundant configuration only)
  5. Power supply unit (for redundant configuration only)
  6. Dedicated power distribution unit (for redundant configuration only)
On the other hand, the following parts mounted in crossbar boxes require powering off of the crossbar boxes. Therefore, you need to stop all the physical partitions to perform the maintenance work (system-stopped/cold maintenance).
  1. Crossbar unit
  2. XSCF interface unit
  3. Fan backplane
  4. Operation panel
  5. Cable kit
  6. Crossbar backplane unit
A fan unit, a power supply unit, and a dedicated power distribution unit in a non-redundant configuration need all the physical partitions to be stopped to perform maintenance work. Note that they do not require powering off of crossbar boxes. Therefore, you can perform hot maintenance (system-stopped/hot maintenance).
An XSCF BB control cable between a crossbar box and SPARC M12/M10 belongs to the physical partition that includes the SPARC M12/M10 (BB) to which the cable is connected.
Therefore, you can perform maintenance work on this part with the physical partition operating (active/cold maintenance) if it is possible to release the connected BB dynamically by using PPAR DR.
If it is not possible to release the connected BB dynamically, stop the physical partition and perform maintenance work (inactive/cold maintenance).
A crossbar cable belongs to the physical partition that includes the SPARC M12/M10 (BB) to which the cable is connected.
However, active maintenance is not enabled for this part. Stop the physical partition and perform maintenance work (inactive/cold maintenance).
