Activating the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT Feature

This procedure is used to enable and turn on the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature using the feature’s part number and a feature access key.

This feature allows the translation type or GTT set to contain 11 to 16 global title addresses of different lengths.

The feature access key for the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature is based on the feature’s part number and the serial number of the EAGLE, making the feature access key site-specific.

The enable-ctrl-feat command enables the feature by inputting the feature’s access key and the feature’s part number with these parameters:

:fak – The feature access key provided by Oracle. The feature access key contains 13 alphanumeric characters and is not case sensitive.

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number of the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature, 893024801.

The enable-ctrl-feat command requires that the database contain a valid serial number for the EAGLE, 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, with 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).

This feature cannot be temporarily enabled (with the temporary feature access key).

Once this feature has been enabled, the feature must be turned on with the chg-ctrl-feat command. The chg-ctrl-feat command uses these parameters:

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number of the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature, 893024801.

:status=on – used to turn the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature on.

Once the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature has been turned on, it be cannot be turned off.

The status of the features in the EAGLE is shown with the rtrv-ctrl-feat command.

Before the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature can be enabled, the VGTT feature must be turned on. The state of the VGTT feature can be verified using the rtrv-feat command.

Display the features that are enabled by entering the rtrv-ctrl-feat command. The following is an example of the possible output.

If the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature is enabled and turned on, shown by the entry VGTT with 16 GTT lengths in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, no further action is necessary. This procedure does not need to be performed.

If the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature is enabled and but not turned on, continue the procedure with 9.

If the Support for 16 GTT Lengths in VGTT feature is not enabled, continue the procedure with 2.

Verify that the VGTT feature is on, by entering the rtrv-feat command. If the VGTT feature is on, the VGTT field should be set to on.

Note:
The rtrv-feat command output contains other fields that are not used by this procedure. If you wish to see all the fields displayed by the rtrv-feat command, see the rtrv-feat command description in Commands User's Guide.

If the VGTT feature is on, continue the procedure with 4.
Note:
If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output in 1 shows any controlled features, continue the procedure with 8. If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output shows only the HC-MIM SLK Capacity feature with a quantity of 64, 4 through 7 must be performed.

If the VGTT feature is off, continue the procedure with 3.
Turn the VGTT feature on by entering this command.
chg-feat:vgtt=on

If the GTT feature is not on, turn the GTT feature on by specifying the gtt=on parameter with the vgtt=on parameter.

Note:
Once the VGTT feature is turned on with the chg-feat command, it cannot be turned off.
The VGTT feature must be purchased before turning it on. If you are not sure whether you have purchased the VGTT feature, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

When the chg-feat has successfully completed, this message should appear.

If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output in 1 shows any controlled features, continue the procedure with 8. If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output shows only the HC-MIM SLK Capacity feature with a quantity of 64, 4 through 7 must be performed.
Display the serial number in the database with the rtrv-serial-num command. This is an example of the possible output.

Command Completed.
```
Note:
If the serial number is correct and locked, continue the procedure with 8. If the serial number is correct but not locked, continue the procedure with 7. If the serial number is not correct, but is locked, this feature 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 to My Oracle Support (MOS) for the contact information. The serial number can be found on a label affixed to the control shelf (shelf 1100).
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 09-05-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 41.0.0
ENT-SERIAL-NUM:  MASP A - COMPLTD
```
Verify that the serial number entered into 5 was entered correctly using the rtrv-serial-num command. This is an example of the possible output.
```
rlghncxa03w 09-05-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 41.0.0
System serial number = nt00001231

System serial number is not locked.

rlghncxa03w 09-05-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 41.0.0
Command Completed.
```
If the serial number was not entered correctly, repeat 5 and 6 and re-enter the correct serial number.
Lock the serial number in the database by entering the ent-serial-num command with the serial number shown in 4, if the serial number shown in 4 is correct, or with the serial number shown in 6, if the serial number was changed in 5, 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.
