CCS Redundancy Configure 0x005B
SwitchKit Name
CCSRedundancyConfig
Type
EXS API and SwitchKit API message
Description
This message configures a chassis for common channel signaling (CCS) redundancy. When the system is successfully configured, all configuration and call processing is mirrored on the secondary card. If the primary card fails, the secondary card resumes call processing where the primary left off.
You enter the slot number of the primary and secondary SS7 or ISDN cards (using an AIB), and a configuration option to suspend synchronization or to not suspend synchronization.

CCS Redundancy Report 0x0073 (CCSRedundancyReport)
Excel strongly recommends sending this message during minimal call processing loads only. Replicating database and call processing information entails heavy processor bandwidth, which affects call processing performance and throughput.
