How frequent retrains, how much unbalanced, and what's your rate of CRCs per day?
Knock on wood, in about 3 weeks of NVG589 haven't seen any CRCs, and just one unexplained retrain (~2.5 days after deployed). Only reason I noticed it, was because my FEC count went backwards (was reset).
Believe this means tracking true rate of CRCs is difficult, if retrains are clearing it periodically. Think I'll need a simple monitor to log whenever my FECs go backward.
AT&T's forums suggest RDI stands for something like Remote Defect Indicator.
Only reasons I've seen on mine are: RDI and System Startup, regardless whether it was an intentional, user triggered reset or not. (2Wire's seemed to log intentional, requested retrains a bit better).
Quite often (when there is a retrain) both lines will retrain twice back to back, 1st time with double the sync rate on each line, then back off to half each. Like this (edited for brevity):
