Hi Barry, The words in capitals are the important ones in cable tests. so //CBL TEST Ignored: bbAW02 -> xxCPyy ready,pnd_test,crs_high_cnt,crs_timer,crs_high,no_cable,TEST_I/P,TIMER// The above message means the cable test was ignored because a cable test was in Progress (TEST_In/Progress). The TL Request type (transport layer) because a retry counter has been breached.

We get the following typical type of activity being logged at very high frequency. Is there any cause for me to be concerned? /Cable Test Request (S: aaAW03 D: xxCPyy) Request type TL// //CBL TEST Ignored: bbAW02 -> xxCPyy ready,pnd_test,crs_high_cnt,crs_timer,crs_high,no_cable,TEST_I/P,TIMER// //CBL TEST Ignored: ccAW01 -> xxCPyy ready,pnd_test,crs_high_cnt,crs_timer,crs_high,no_cable,TEST_I/P,TIMER// //CBL TEST Ignored: (etc.) ..../ 1. Can anyone shed any light on what these messages are telling me? 2. Is the 'CBL TEST Ignored:' a good message or a bad message? 3. Does anyone have a list of the messages reported in smon.log, nfd.log and nfd_debug.log and what they mean?
