SYSTEM ROBUSTNESS

TST_Robustness_1

Fail Simulation of a MASTER node

Purpose:

Verify the correct behaviour of the system after a Master node fail simulation.

Execution:

Switch off the Master node.

Result:

The Slave node will switch to Master Alone.

Note:

On the CWPs there will be no loss of Radar data. Verify on the CMS the changed status
of the nodes. Switch on the previous node and wait the alignment with the other node.
Verify the correct alignment between the two nodes. No double targets on the CWP.
STCA remain active.

TST_Robustness_2

Fail Simulation of a SLAVE node

Purpose:

Verify the correct behaviour of the system after a Slave node fail simulation.

Execution:

Switch off the Slave node. Modify some parameters. (This test is not applicable on
FDPSL and FPPS).

Result:

The Master node will switch to Master Alone.

Note:

On the CWPs there will be no loss of Radar data. Verify on the CMS the changed status
of the nodes. Switch on the Slave node and wait the alignment with the Master node.
Verify the correct alignment data between the two nodes included those changed during
its stop. If, after the modification of the parameters into the Master Alone node, this node
is switched off, it is necessary to start-up this one as first to maintain the new
configuration; on the contrary, the last modification will be lost if the Slave node is the
one to be started-up as first. Do not change parameters during start-up phase. No double
targets on the CWP. STCA active.

TST_Robustness_3

Fail Simulation of both RDP nodes (Not Applicable)

Purpose:

Verify the correct behaviour of the system after a fail simulation of both the RDP nodes in
matched pair configuration.

Execution:

Switch off both the nodes.

Result:

The system will change in DARD mode.

Note:

Each CWP continues to display its selected radar if it is disseminated. Verify on the CMS
the changed status of the nodes. Verify the correct alignment between the two nodes after
restarting. The test must be changed or dropped if overlaps a test in MRT fallback.

Purpose:

Verify the system has the capability to start-up two nodes in configuration Master/Slave
simultaneously.

Execution:

Switch on both nodes.

Result:

The fastest node will start as Master Alone and when the other will reach the start-up
phase becomes Master.

Note:

Verify on the CMS the changed status of the nodes. Verify the correct alignment between
the two nodes. No double targets on the CWP. STCA active.

TST_Robustness_5

Fail Simulation of the Inter-Computer Serial Line of the two Servers

Purpose:

Verify the correct behaviour of the system after a fail simulation of the Inter-Computer
Serial Line of the two servers in Matched Pair configuration.

Execution:

Take off the cable connection from one of the two servers.

Result:

The node where the cable is disconnected goes in HALT and the other node becomes
Master Alone.

Note:

On the CWPs there will be no loss of data. Verify on the CMS the changed status of the
nodes.

TST_Robustness_6

Connecting back the Inter-Computer Cable of two Servers

Purpose:

Verify the correct behaviour of the system after a connection back of the cable.

Execution:

Connect back the cable and start-up the node.

Result:

Verify that both nodes recover the Matched Pair Master/Standby functionality.

Note:

On the CWPs there will be no loss of data. Verify on the CMS the changed status of the
nodes.
Repeat the same procedures (5 and 6) to the other node.

LAN failure on the Master nodes

Purpose:

Verify that the failure will be managed by the system without affecting the correct
functionality of the system.

Execution:

Take off the Main LAN from one of the Master node.

Result:

There will be a misalignment of the node. If the node is the AGW (Artas Gateway), the
system will be in RFB-C mode; if the node is the RFE the system maintain its whole
functionality, if the node is either the FDP or RPB the functionality is stopped, if the node
is a CWP that is disseminating a radar, this radar will be disseminated by the next CWP
on the LAN. The system can recover its whole functionality either by manual switching
of the Main LAN or by a manual node role switching.

Note:

Verify on the CMS and CWP the changed status of the nodes. Connect back the LAN on
Master node. The functionality will be recovered. Repeat this order for each typology of
node. Verify the behavior of CAT 62,63 output.

TST_Robustness_8

LAN failure on the Slave nodes

Purpose:

Verify that the failure will be managed by the system without affecting the correct
functionality of the system.

Execution:

Take off the Main LAN from one of the Slave nodes. (Note: This test is not applicable to
the FPPS).

Result:

There will be a misalignment of the relevant node without any problem for the system
functionality.

Note:

Verify on the CMS the changed status of the nodes. Connect back the LAN on
Slave node. Repeat this order for each typology of node.

TST_ Robustness_9

Procedure Dropped

TST_Robustness_10

Reserve LAN failure

Purpose:

Verify that the failure of the Reserve LAN will be managed by the system without
affecting the correct functionality of the system.

Execution:

Take off the Reserve LAN from the Master node. (Note: This test is not applicable to the
FPPS).

Result:

There will be no changes on the correct functionality of the system.

Note:

Verify on the CMS the changed status of the nodes. Connect back the Reserve LAN on
Master node and check the recovered configuration on the CMS. Repeat this test taking
off the Reserve LAN on the Slave node.

System LAN Main/Reserve role Switching

Purpose:

Change the operative LAN manually.

Execution:

Perform the NWS order from the I/O console of the RDP and perform the order REL
STA. ( This test is not applicable on the FPPS).

Result:

Verify that the whole system have changed to the second LAN.

Note:

Verify that there are not losses of data on the CWP. Verify on the CMS the changed status
of the LANs. Repeat these orders from the CMS. No double targets.

TST_Robustness_12

Forced System LAN Switching after Reserve LAN failure

Purpose:

Change the operative LAN manually even if the Reserve LAN of best node is in fault.

Execution:

Take off the Reserve LAN cable from the Best Node Server. Perform the NWS order
from the I/O console of the same node and perform the order REL STA. (This test is not
applicable on the FPPS).

Result:

Verify that the whole System have changed to the Reserve LAN and that the best node is
now transferred to another computer. If the node is the master RDP, the system will be in
DARD mode; if the node is the master FDP or master RPB the functionality is stopped, if
the node is a CWP that is disseminating a radar, this radar will be disseminated by the
next CWP on the LAN. The system could be recovering its whole functionality: either by
manual switching of the Main LAN or by a manual node role switching. Force RFB to be
best node, and also CWP.

Note:

Verify on the CMS the changed status of the LANs. Repeat these orders from the CMS.

TST_Robustness_13

Failure of the Main LAN1

Purpose:

Verify how the system can manage a failure of the Main LAN of the Best Node.

Execution:

Take out the cable of the Main LAN of the Best Node from its switch. (This test is not
applicable on the FPPS).

Result:

Verify that in the system there is another best node and that the whole system remains
working to the Main LAN. If the node is the master RDP, the system will be in DARD
mode if the node is the master FDP or master RPB the functionality is stopped, if the
node is a CWP that is disseminating a radar, this radar will be disseminated by the next
CWP on the LAN. The system could be recovering its whole functionality: either by
manual switching of the Main LAN or by a manual node role switching.

The system does not allow the explicit assignment of OPER (OPERative environment) mode to a LAN, it switches automatically
only at a LAN switching. It is possible to assign to different LANs the REAL and PLB environments with command REL LAS from
CMS. Note that having OPER and REAL modes working on different LANs leads to the loss of LAN redundancy. In this case the
system becomes unstable, switching endlessly between MRT and DARD, and all the information on CWPs is lost.

TST_Robustness_14

Fail Simulation of one Radar Head Serial Lines

Purpose:

Simulate a failure of the Radar Head data. Repeat the test three times.

Execution:

Set in BYP, on the chosen radar, at least one CWP. Take off both the serial cables of the
chosen radar head.

Result:

Verify that the relevant radar data dont arrive anymore and the tracks related to that radar
head disappears from all the CWPs.

Note:

Verify on the CMS the changed status of the serial line. Connect back the cable and check
that the radar data presentation is restored. No double targets.

TST_Robustness_15

Fail simulation of the Radar Head Serial Line Main Link

Purpose:

Simulate a failure of the radar data for one of the Radar Heads. Repeat the test three
times.

Execution:

Set in BYP, on the chosen radar, at least one CWP. Take off the serial cable of the main
link of the chosen Radar Head.

Result:

Verify that the channel will change, that the data continue to arrive and the tracks related

Note:

The radar disseminator change procedure in the REAL operational environment is mainly
in charge of the following activities:
1. it shall search for the physical unit responsible for dissemination in the table of nodes
(DNSTB).
2. if the physical unit responsible for dissemination is not found, the disseminator
change order shall be rejected and a diagnostic message produced.
3. it shall search for the radar to be disseminated in the table of radars (RDNTB).
4. if the radar to be disseminated is not found, the disseminator change order shall be
rejected and a diagnostic message produced.
5. if the disseminator change order is not concerning the REAL operational
environment, the disseminator change order shall be rejected and a diagnostic
message produced.
6. it shall check if the disseminator physical unit is first level aligned.
7. if the physical unit responsible for dissemination is not first level aligned, the
disseminator change order shall be rejected and a diagnostic message produced.
8. If the physical unit assigned to the new dissemination is already disseminating
another radar, it shall disable the dissemination of the old radar from the RCHTB
table and send the message RCIMG.
9. If the order is of dissemination disabling, it shall disable the dissemination.
10. If the radar to be disseminated is already disseminated by another node, the latter
dissemination shall be disabled in the NSTAB table.
11. it shall definitely assign the dissemination of the specified radar to the specified
node.
12. If the specified node is in the REAL operational environment, it shall transmit the
disseminator change message to DIS (a display sub-function) and DPS (a display
sub-function).
13. it shall send the status message to XMD.
14. it shall notify SYO (a display sub-function) of the order execution.

Not Synchronised Radar Heads Data Alignment (RAL and Manual)

The alignment of a radar head data can be performed by an automatic procedure (RAL) or manually. The
decision of choosing either one or the other procedure depends mainly upon the following conditions:
Presence of radar(s) provided of SSR Site Transponder,
Presence of overlapped radar coverage between synchronised and non synchronised radars,
Number of aeroplanes flying in the overlapped area.
Experience of the System Specialist in performing MRT alignment
Upon the above said consideration the most suitable procedure of alignment will be adopted; in the
following both the possible procedures are mentioned.
a)

RFB Automatic Alignment (MRT RAL)

Purpose:

To correct the angular deviations of each radar antenna from its local Geographical North

Execution:

On the I/O console of the master RDP, input:


RFB RAL

Effects:

The list of radars couples is scanned, and radars alignment algorithm is activated for two
radars at a time; a positive / negative diagnostic (at level 3) concludes the alignment
phase for each couple. The new deviations values are sent to the given radar sites, in
updated configuration messages. The MASTER AMR performs radar alignment; at the
end of the algorithm hard disk and stand-by RFB are aligned Use RTB and RCP orders to
check the above conditions.

Note:

As far as RAL command concerns, further checks have to be recalled: i.e.


Related to Beta
o Beta value is changed,
o Then, RAL command is issued,
o DEVIA value is checked whether it modifies as consequence of Beta
value modification for the relevant radar under alignment.
Related to a Test Transponder Coordinates
o The parameters of a Test Transponder will be modified in such a way to
simulate a different angular position with respect to a radar,
o Then, RAL command is issued,
o DEVIA has to compensate the simulated Radar Head rotation
