ABSTRACT:
A system and method for managing delivery of a link active schedule has a master link active scheduler and a backup link active scheduler communicatively coupled together via a databus. The system and method stores a link active schedule in a master link active scheduler and automatically transmits the most current link active schedule from the master link active scheduler over the databus to the backup link active scheduler upon receipt of the link active schedule in the master link active scheduler.
