4.1 System Topology Check

System Topology Check

This procedure is part of feature activation preparation and is used to verify the system topology of the DSR network and servers.
  1. Log in to the NOAM VIP GUI, establish a GUI session on the NOAM server by using the VIP address of the NOAM server.
  2. Open the web browser and enter the URL, http://<Primary_NOAM_VIP_IP_Address>
  3. Log in as the guiadmin user.

  12. Analyze and plan the DA-MP re-start sequence. Analyze the system topology and plan for any DA-MPs, which will be out-of-service during the feature activation sequence. Analyze system topology gathered in Step 5 and Step 9. Determine exact sequence which DA-MP servers will be restarted (with the expected out-of-service periods).

    Note:

    It is recommended that no more than 50% of the MPs be restarted at once.
