PDRA PCRF Pooling Upgrade

This section provides information about, and includes procedures for upgrading from an installed and activated, non-PCRF Pooling Policy DRA release.

PCRF Pool enablement applies when upgrading from the DSR 5.0 Policy DRA to the 7.0 functionality. PCRF Pooling can be enabled only after all Policy DRA network elements are upgraded and those upgrades are accepted. Then, it is possible to use PCRF Pooling logic, as the upgrade changes the way that binding data is handled.

Note: In releases prior to 7.0, the application is called "PDRA." In the 7.0 release, the application is called "PCA" and PDRA is a functionality of the PCA application.
