another software card-mem.
REPROGRAMMING MTP:
If the MTP programming fails, the Manager I will not be
functional anymore. So the rest of the upgrade (if it occurs)
will not be visible. Nor will the MTP be present to monitor
the health of the processor. The only recovery procedure
is to power down and power up the system since the
presence of a software card-mem will cause a software

MEM-CARD WITH
TRANSLATION
MEM-CARD:
The system technician is prompted by a beep and this text
string on the Manager I to replace the software card-mem
with the translation card-mem. The system boots without
translation if the replacement is not done within 2 minutes.
The only way to recover from this is to replace the
card-mem and issue a
string on the Manager I to replace the software card-mem
with the translation card-mem. The system boots without
translation if the replacement is not done within 2 minutes.
The only way to recover from this is to replace the
card-mem and issue a
reset system 3
to read in the
translations again.
