Activating the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset Feature

This procedure is used to enable and turn on the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature using the feature's part number and a feature access key.

The feature access key for the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is based on the features 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 access key and the feature part number with these parameters:

:fak – The feature access key provided by Oracle.

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number of the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature, 893026501.

Once this feature is enabled, it is permanently enabled. This feature cannot be enabled with a temporary feature access key.

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).

The chg-ctrl-feat command uses these parameters:

:partnum – The Oracle-issued part number of the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature, 893026501.

:status=on – used to turn the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature on.

Once the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature has been turned on, it cannot be turned off.

The status of the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is shown with the rtrv-ctrl-feat command.

  1. Display the controlled features in the database by entering the rtrv-ctrl-feat command. This is an example of the possible output.
    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    The following features have been permanently enabled:
    
    Feature Name              Partnum    Status  Quantity
    SCCP Conversion           893012001  on      ----
    EIR                       893012301  on      ----
    GSM Map Screening (GMS)   893013201  on      ----
    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 the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is enabled, the entry ISLSBR is shown in the permanently enabled section of the rtrv-ctrl-feat output. If the status of the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is on, no further action can be performed.

    If the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is enabled but not turned on, continue the procedure with 7.

    If the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature is not enabled, continue the procedure by performing one of these steps.
    • If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output in 1 shows any controlled features in addition to the HC-MIM SLK Capacity feature with a quantity of 64, continue the procedure with 6.
    • If the rtrv-ctrl-feat output shows only the HC-MIM SLK Capacity feature with a quantity of 64, 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 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    System serial number = nt00001231
    
    System serial number is not locked.
    
    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    Command Completed
    
    Continue the procedure by performing one of these actions.
    • If the serial number is correct and locked, continue the procedure with 6.
    • If the serial number is correct but not locked, continue the procedure with 5.
    • If the serial number is not correct, but is locked, the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset 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).
  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 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    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 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    System serial number = nt00001231
    
    System serial number is not locked.
    
    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    Command Completed
    

    If the serial number was not entered correctly, repeat 3 and 4 to 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 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    ENT-SERIAL-NUM:  MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  6. Enable the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature by entering the enable-ctrl-feat command. For this example, enter this command.

    enable-ctrl-feat:partnum=893026501:fak= <SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature access key>

    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 SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature, contact your Oracle Sales Representative or Account Representative.

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

    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    ENABLE-CTRL-FEAT: MASP B - COMPLTD
    
  7. Turn the SLS Bit Rotation by Incoming Linkset feature on by entering the chg-ctrl-feat command with the part number used in 6 and the status=on parameter.

    For this example, enter this command.

    chg-ctrl-feat:partnum=893026501:status=on

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

    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    CHG-CTRL-FEAT: MASP A - COMPLTD
    
  8. Verify the changes by entering this command.

    rtrv-ctrl-feat:partnum=893026501

    The following is an example of the possible output.

    rlghncxa03w 08-12-28 11:43:04 GMT EAGLE5 40.0.0
    The following features have been permanently enabled:
    
    Feature Name              Partnum    Status  Quantity
    ISLSBR                    893026501  on      ----
    
    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.
    
  9. 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.
