Changing the Three Links per E5-ATM-B Card Quantity

This procedure is used to increase the number of E5-ATM-Bs that can contain three signaling links. There is maximum of 250 E5-ATM-Bs that can contain three signaling links. The EAGLE contains a maximum of 250 card slots for signaling links.

Note:

As of Release 46.6, E5-ATM refers to the E5-ATM-B (P/N 870-2972-xx) card.

The enable-ctrl-feat command enables the Three Links per E5-ATM Card quantity, in groups of 5 E5-ATMs, by specifying the part number for the 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity and the Three Links per E5-ATM Card quantity’s feature access key with these parameters:

:fak – The feature access key supplied by Oracle. The feature access key contains 13 alphanumeric characters and is not case sensitive. If you do not have the feature access key for the Three Links per E5-ATM Card quantity you wish to enable, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number for the Three Links per E5-ATM Card quantity shown in Table C-11.

The enable-ctrl-feat command requires a valid serial number for the EAGLE to be configured in the database, and that this serial number is locked. This can be verified with the rtrv-serial-num command. The EAGLE is shipped with a serial number in the database, but the serial number is not locked. The serial number can be changed, if necessary, and locked once the EAGLE is on-site, by using the ent-serial-num command. The ent-serial-num command uses these parameters.

:serial – The serial number assigned to the EAGLE. The serial number is not case sensitive.

:lock – Specifies whether or not the serial number is locked. This parameter has only one value, yes, which locks the serial number. Once the serial number is locked, it cannot be changed.

Note:

To enter and lock the EAGLE’s serial number, the ent-serial-num command must be entered twice, once to add the correct serial number to the database with the serial parameter, then again with the serial and the lock=yes parameters to lock the serial number. You should verify that the serial number in the database is correct before locking the serial number. The serial number can be found on a label affixed to the control shelf (shelf 1100).

Once the proxy point code quantity is enabled with the enable-ctrl-feat command, the proxy point code is also turned on. The chg-ctrl-feat command is not necessary to turn on the proxy point code quantity.

A 3 Links per E5-ATM quantity cannot be enabled for the first time if there are any ATM high-speed signaling links in the database whose VCI value is greater than 16383. These signaling links must be removed by performing the Removing an SS7 Signaling Link procedure. These signaling links can be added back to the database by performing the Adding an ATM High-Speed Signaling Link procedure. The VCI value for these signaling links must be 16383 or less. If a 3 Links per E5-ATM quantity is being increased from a currently enabled 3 Links per E5-ATM quantity, then there are no ATM high-speed signaling links in the database whose VCI value is greater than 16383.

  1. Display the features that are enabled by entering the rtrv-ctrl-feat command.

    The following is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    The following features have been permanently enabled:

    3 Links per E5-ATM Card   893039105  on      25
    
    The following features have been temporarily enabled:
    
    Feature Name              Partnum   Status  Quantity     Trial Period Left
    Zero entries found.
    
    The following features have expired temporary keys:
    
    Feature Name              Partnum
    Zero entries found.
    

    If a 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity is enabled, the entry 3 Links per E5-ATM Card is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output.

    If a 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output and that quantity is 250, the new quantity cannot be enabled. This is the maximum number of E5-ATMs that can contain 3 signaling links.

    If a 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output and that quantity is less than 250, continue the procedure with Oracle.

    If a 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity is not shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, continue the procedure with 2.

    If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output in 1 shows any controlled features, continue the procedure with 6. If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output shows only the HC-MIM SLK Capacity feature with a quantity of 64, 2 through 5 must be performed.

  2. Display the serial number in the database with the rtrv-serial-num command.

    This is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    System serial number = <EAGLE serial number>
    
    System serial number is not locked.
    
    

    Note:

    If the serial number is correct and locked, continue the procedure with6. If the serial number is correct but not locked, continue the procedure with5. If the serial number is not correct, but is locked, a 3 Links per E5-ATM quantity cannot be enabled and the remainder of this procedure cannot be performed. Contact the Customer Care Center to get an incorrect and locked serial number changed. Refer toMy Oracle Support (MOS)for the contact information. The serial number can be found on a label affixed to the control shelf (shelf 1100).
  3. Enter the correct serial number into the database using the ent-serial-num command with the serial parameter.

    For this example, enter this command.

    ent-serial-num:serial=<EAGLE’s correct serial number>

    When this command has successfully completed, the following message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    ENT-SERIAL-NUM:  MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  4. Verify that the serial number entered in 3 was entered correctly using the rtrv-serial-num command.

    This is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    System serial number = <EAGLE correct serial number>
    
    System serial number is not locked.
    
    

    If the serial number was not entered correctly, repeat 3 and 4 and re-enter the correct serial number.

  5. Lock the serial number in the database by entering the ent-serial-num command with the serial number shown in 2, if the serial number shown in 2 is correct, or with the serial number shown in 4, if the serial number was changed in 3, and with the lock=yes parameter.

    For this example, enter this command.

    ent-serial-num:serial=<EAGLE’s serial number>:lock=yes

    When this command has successfully completed, the following message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    ENT-SERIAL-NUM:  MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  6. Display the ATM high-speed signaling links by entering this command.

    rtrv-slk:type=saal

    This is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-19 21:16:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0

    SLK table is (29 of 1200) 2% full.
    

    If no entries are displayed in the rtrv-slk output, continue the procedure with Oracle.

    If entries are displayed in the rtrv-slk output and the VCI value of all the signaling links is 16383 of less, continue the procedure with Oracle.

    If entries are displayed in the rtrv-slk output and the VCI value of any of the signaling links is greater than 16383, perform the Removing an SS7 Signaling Link to remove these signaling links. If you wish to add these signaling links back into the database, perform the Adding an ATM High-Speed Signaling Link procedure. The VCI value of these signaling links must ne 16383 or less. After the signaling links have been removed, and added back into the database if desired, continue the procedure with Oracle.

  7. Enable a 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity with the enable-ctrl-feat command specifying the part number for the 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity and the feature access key.

    The part numbers and 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantities are shown in Table C-11.

    For this example, enter this command.

    enable-ctrl-feat:partnum=893039106:fak=<3 Links per E5-ATM Card feature access key for 30 E5-ATMs>

    Note:

    A temporary feature access key cannot be specified to enable the 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity.

    Note:

    The values for the feature access key (the fak parameter) are provided by Oracle. If you do not have the feature access key for the 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity you wish to enable, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

    When the enable-ctrl-feat command has successfully completed, this message should appear.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    ENABLE-CTRL-FEAT: MASP B - COMPLTD
    
  8. Verify the changes by entering the rtrv-ctrl-feat command with the 3 Links per E5-ATM Card quantity part number specified in Oracle.

    For this example, enter this command.

    rtrv-ctrl-feat:partnum=893039106

    The following is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    The following features have been permanently enabled:
    
    Feature Name              Partnum    Status  Quantity
