Changing the Point Code and CIC Translation Quantity

This procedure is used to increase the number of PCT (point code and CIC translations) entries that are allowed in the EAGLE. The EAGLE can contain a maximum of 1000 PCT entries.

The enable-ctrl-feat command enables the PCT quantity by specifying the part number for the PCT quantity and the PCT 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 PCT quantity you wish to enable, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number for the PCT quantity shown in Table 4-1.

Table 4-1 PCT Quantities and Part Numbers

Part Number PCT Quantity
893037201 25
893037202 50
893037203 75
893037204 100
893037205 150
893037206 200
893037207 250
893037208 1000

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

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

    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
    Command Class Management  893005801  on      ----
    LNP Short Message Service 893006601  on      ----
    Intermed GTT Load Sharing 893006901  on      ----
    XGTT Table Expansion      893006101  on      4000000
    XMAP Table Expansion      893007710  on      3000
    Large System # Links      893005901  on      1500
    Routesets                 893006401  on      6000
    HC-MIM SLK Capacity       893012707  on      64
    
    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 PCT quantity is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, and the enabled quantity is 1000, this procedure cannot be performed. The EAGLE can contain a maximum of 1000 PCT entries.

    If a PCT quantity is shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, and the enabled quantity is less than 1000, continue the procedure with Oracle.

    If a PCT quantity is not shown in the rtrv-ctrl-feat output, continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output in 1 shows any controlled features, continue the procedure with Oracle.
    • 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. Continue the procedure with 2.
  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 = nt00001231
    System serial number is not locked.
    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    Command Completed
    

    Note:

    If the serial number is correct and locked, continue the procedure withOracle. If the serial number is correct but not locked, continue the procedure with5. If the serial number is not correct, but is locked, a PCT 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 to theMy Oracle Support (MOS)section 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 into 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 = nt00001231
    System serial number is not locked.
    rlghncxa03w 10-12-28 21:15:37 GMT EAGLE5 43.0.0
    Command Completed
    

    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. Enable a PCT quantity with the enable-ctrl-feat command specifying the part number for the point code, shown in Table 4-1, and CIC translation quantity and the feature access key.

    For this example, enter this command.

    enable-ctrl-feat:partnum=893037203:fak=<feature access key for 75 PCT entries>

    Note:

    A temporary feature access key cannot be specified to enable the routeset quantity.

    Note:

    The values for the feature access key (thefakparameter) are provided by Oracle. If you do not have the feature access key for the PCT 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
    
  7. Verify the changes by entering the rtrv-ctrl-featcommand with the PCT quantity part number specified in Oracle.

    For this example, enter this command.

    rtrv-ctrl-feat:partnum=893037203

    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
    PC & CIC Translation      893037203  on      75
    
    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.
    
  8. Back up the new changes, using the chg-db:action=backup:dest=fixed command.

    These messages should appear; the active Maintenance and Administration Subsystem Processor (MASP) appears first.

    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup starts on active MASP.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup on active MASP to fixed disk complete.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup starts on standby MASP.
    BACKUP (FIXED): MASP A - Backup on standby MASP to fixed disk complete.
