Caveats
Open Caveats - Release R01.00.00

Bug ID Severity Title Description Impact Workaround CSCtm01609
2
Signal Loss of BITS Clock is not detected
On release 1.0, it was discovered that the CSM hardware cannot detect the LOS when BITS clock is removed. Hence, there is no clock switching when we loose BITS clock due to LOS.
If there is no BITS clock due to LOS on the T1 span, there will be clock slippage.
Use NMC T1 line as external stratum clock source.
CSCtm01572
2
Hard drive corrupted during dbbackup and restore process.
The problem is when the IDE hard drive contains bad sectors. This issue is not detected until the software tries to use the sector for storage. This causes the drive to fails.
Hard drive failure.
None
CSCtm01553
2
STDBY SCC intermittently gets into FAIL state due to IDE malfunction
Defect or malfunctioning IDE cause the SCC to fail. Switchover occurs to prevent disruption to service. If problem occurs in standby SCC, operator can replace without disruption to service.
Loss of redundancy coverage until the drive is replaced.
CSCtm01521
2
Can't recover access to failed DSP
If there is a DSP failure on the MSM-DSPV module, the current FPGA does not time-out on read/write access to the device. This causes the host processor to hang. Hence, the hardware watchdog is triggered.
This will cause the NMC to be reset by hardware watchdog.
CSCtm01599
3
24hr Call Completion test yields less than 100% due to the MCS call agent
100% call completion can't be achieved when using MCS (TransMedia's call agent) for call control. MCS is no longer supported.
Not applicable
CSCtm01408
3
Add extra field in lsClk for software/customer clock src setting
Needs to display clock synch source along with other info when querying clock source data
None
CSCtm01396
3
lslns does not display T3 lines
Needs to display data for T3 lines when using lslns CLI command
none
CSCtm01382
3
Capital letters are not accept as a key when attempting to download bootcode
Capital letters are allowed for filename in bootcode download, but only small letters are used in download utility.
None
Don't use capital letters
CSCtm01001
3
SCC 10 line integrated alarm does not reflect line status
The integrated alarm on the SCC in slot 10 shows incorrect alarm for the SCC due to logical slot mapping
Alarms on the SCC itself may be incorrectly reported.
None
CSCdp47831
3
DMC clock source not acknowledged after SCC switchover
When DMC is the primary source for the clock and it is switched over, the clock source becomes applicable on the stand by DMC after it is re-applied
After the SCC switch over, the DMC clock source fails; this result in a clock switch to the secondary clock source.
Provide a good secondary clock source other than DMC. After SCC switch over, re-program the DMC clock source as primary clock source.
CSCdp47723
3
ESF/AMI ones density scheme needs to be determined.
When user selects AMI as line coding, there is no one-density insertion to prevent one-density violation.
This will cause the CPE side to loose frame synchronization due one density violation.
Use B8ZS line coding.
CSCtm01607
4
Unable to clear errors on onbertds1 tests.
BERT test statistics can't be cleared
none
Need to know BERT status before starting test run
CSCtm01603
4
Invalid performance and statistics data are displayed for newly added DS1
When a new DS1 is added, some invalid performance and statistics are shown when printed
None
Clear data manually after adding new line
CSCtm01584
4
Cannot list MSM cards with lsmsms.
When printing info for card configured with 2 MSM, card configuration are not shown
None
CSCtm01569
4
Can't adjust line length on the DS1 loop
LBO needs to be adjustable for different line length. Today we support the short line length.
None
None

4
Boot code hang in VxWorks banner
The VxWorks banner is not displayed in the NMC after rebooting the NMC 100+ times
None
issues `resetcd'command from the SCC

Second DSPV card does not show when listing a NMC card with two
When printing info for card configured with 2 MSM, card configuration are not shown
None
CSCtm01559
4
Changing a vport using "#" or " " as a <voicePortNumRepetition> fails
The number of repetition for voice port was not defaulted to 1. Hence, there is no default. If user tries to use it as default (#), the operation will fail.
None
CSCtm01546
4
Degraded Minutes performance parameter not supported.
Bursty Errored Seconds are not supported, but CLI and WebEm fields reserve/print fields for them
None

NMC Firmware version not printed
NMC bootcode version is not printed if the bootcode is loaded via burning in the chip. This work fine if the bootcode is downloaded via the update command
None
CSCtm01395
4
Clock Synch HW can't detect signal loss
This is the same issue as CSMtm01609
After entering "clrcdcnf" followed with a space " " the system printed an error message followed by a Login: prompt. This only occurs if the clrcdcnf command is followed by a space and no card number.
Entering the lscd # command prints many fields. The Software Revision Field and Firmware Revision Field display is reversed.
CSCtm01391
4
clrcdcnf command
An error message is printed if a space is typed following the clrcfcnf command (i.e. "clrcdcnf ")
None
CSCtm01336

Entering the lscd # command reveals many fields. It appears that the printing of the Software Revision Field and Firmware Revision fields have their information reversed.
None
CSCtm01310
4
Announcement file registry is lost after DB cleared.
The announcement files are not loaded on to the NMCs after the DB is cleared.
