Can't stop an admin1 session or exit overlay

[Crowtalks]

I accessed a CS1000E 5.5 remotely thru a modem yesterday to look at the system time since I realized I hadn't redefined the Daylight savings in the switch and found out that time was off. I went into ld 2 at admin1 and remembered I needed to be at admin2 level to change the parameters. I couldn't exit the overlay, end, ****, nothing worked. I could do whatever I wanted to in ld 02, I just couldn't get out of it. I stopped the modem session, and I went on sight to power down the modem. I waited overnight and this morning dialed the modem with the same results, I was still in ld 2. Going back on sight, I accessed the switch through elements manager and admin2, and I see that tty 01 is active with admin1 session. FORC 1 fails and says that the overlay is still active. I ended up having to INI the system to get it to release the session.

My question is: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?

If I remember right, there was a PEP that corrected an issue with Load 2, out in December of 09'. Is your system up to date?

I don't suppose you would have the pep number for that would you?

What type of processor does your CS1000E have? I looked through the ESPL site and did not see a PEP that fit that description ( I used CPPM as the processor ).

It's a 5.5 with a CPPM. The only PEP I saw that came close was about Daylight Savings Time

I'd out the tty and rebuild first before anything else.

Can you disable the TTY port to disconnect the session?

Thanks,

This post was an after-the-fact post. I fixed the problem through INI.

After-the-fact, I thought about disu the tty, but FORC X is similar action and the system wouldn't allow that so I'm not sure a disu would have worked. I'm sure outing the tty would have though.
