init-card

Use this command to cause a soft reset of a card. It has the same result as a hard reset (card boots, application, and data load), except that connect status is not affected; that is, if a card is not connected, it stays that way.

When the command is issued, there is a 10-second wait before the card is reset. This wait period is intended to ensure that all database updates are complete before the card is reset.

Caution:

Resetting more than 8 Service Module cards at once may result in an extended reload time for the Service Module cards.

Parameters

appl (optional)

Application. The type of application residing on the card.

Caution:

Because the appl parameter causes all LIMs running the assigned application to reload, it should be used only during periods of low traffic.

Range:

xyyyyyy

1 alphabetic character followed by up to 6 alphanumeric characters. Valid applications are:

all—Used to reset EAGLE cards. Cannot be specified unless serial=yes is also specified.

atmansi—Used by E5-ATM-B cards to support high-speed ATM signaling links and T1 functions.

atmitu—Used by E5-ATM-B cards to support E1 high-speed signaling links and E1 functions.

ccs7itu—Used by E5-E1T1-B cards for ITU-TSS MTP functions.

deirhc— Used by E5-SM8G-B and SLIC cards to support the S13/S13' EIR feature.

enumhc— Used by E5-SM8G-B and SLIC cards to support the ENUM application.

eroute—Used by E5-ENET-B cards for EAGLE 5 Integrated Monitoring Support functions.

gls—Used by E5-TSM cards for downloading gateway screening to LIM cards and Service Module cards.

ipgwi—Used by E5-ENET-B cards for point-to-multipoint IP connectivity for ITU point codes. The system allows a maximum of 125 cards to be assigned the IPGWI application.

iplimi—Used by E5-ENET-B cards for point-to-point IP connectivity for ITU point codes.

ips—Used by E5-IPSM and E5-ENET-B cards for the IP User Interface feature.

siphc—Used by E5-SM8G-B and SLIC Cards to support SIP application

ss7ansi—Used by E5-E1T1-B cards for the MTP functions

ss7ipgw—Application software for point-to-multipoint IP connectivity. The system allows a maximum of 125 cards to be assigned the SS7IPGW application.

vsccp—Used by Service Module cards to support EPAP-based features and LNP features. If no EPAP-based features or LNP features are turned on, and a Service Module card is present, the vsccp application processes normal GTT traffic.

Default:: The application assigned to the card

data (optional)

High memory refresh. This parameter causes data to be reloaded to the specified card.

Note:

The LNP feature or an EPAP-based feature must be turned on or the ATINP feature must be enabled before this parameter can be specified. This parameter applies only to Service Module cards that (1) run the VSCCP application and contain an RTDB.

Range:

refresh: Causes data to be reloaded to the specified card.
persist: Indicates that the database is not to be reloaded to the card. Used to request that the EAGLE perform a warm restart of the requested cards. The EAGLE performs various checks to ensure that all conditions necessary to initiate the warm restart are in place. The force parameter is required if all of the specified cards do not meet the warm restart requirements. During the card initialization and loading sequence, a warm restart is performed for all cards that meet the warm restart conditions.

Default:

refresh

force (optional)

Force indicator. Enables the command to be processed under the following conditions:

If serial=yes and all cards of the specified GPL type are not IS-NR or OOS-MT-DSBLD.
If initclk=yes and the TDM card specified in the loc parameter is the only good HS clock source that is currently active. A temporary clock outage will occur.
If initclk=yes and appl=oam is specified (bitfiles on both TDMs will be initialized). A temporary clock outage will occur.

Range:

yes
no

Default:

no

initclk (optional)

Initialize TDM Bitfile indicator. If TDM reload would cause a system clock outage, the initclk parameter cannot be specified unless force=yes is also specified.

Caution:

The resulting clock outage will probably cause loss of traffic on all links.

The following scenarios will cause such clock outages:

Simplex MASP configuration (a system with a single TDM).
Bad clock status on the remaining TDM.

Range:

yes, no

If initclk=yes is specified with a single TDM card location, the bitfile for the specified TDM reloads.

If initclk=yes is specified with appl=oam and force=yes, the bitfile reloads on both TDMs.

loc (optional)

Card address. The card location as stenciled on the shelf of the system.

Range:

1101 - 1108, 1111 - 1116, 1201 - 1208, 1211 - 1218, 1301 - 1308, 1311 - 1318, 2101 - 2108, 2111 - 2118, 2201 - 2208, 2301 - 2318, 3101 - 3108, 3111 - 3118, 3201 - 3208, 3211 - 3218, 3301 - 3308, 3311 - 3318, 4101 - 4108, 4111 - 4118, 4201 - 4208, 4211 - 4218, 4301 - 4308, 4311 - 4318, 5101 - 5108, 5111 - 5118, 5201 - 5208, 5211 - 5218, 5301 - 5308, 5311 - 5318, 6101 - 6108, 6111 - 6118

When the initclk parameter is not specified, the listed card locations are valid.

When the initclk parameter is specified, card locations 1113, 1114, 1115, and 1116 are valid.

Entering locations 1114 and 1116 results in the same action as entering 1113 and 1115.

Default:

All valid card locations are initialized.

perdata (optional)

Persist a particular DB type on all cards (irrespective of the card's type).

Range:: all
Persist all data (GTT/MPS) that can be persisted on the card; mps
Persist only MPS data on the card that supports persistence of MPS DB; gtt
Persist only GTT data on the card that supports persistence of GTT DB

Default:: all

Note:

The perdata parameter can only be specified where data=persist is given.

prtngrp (optional)

Partition group. The disk partition group that is used as the source for downloading the appropriate GPL.

A value of 1113 or 1115 must be specified for the loc parameter before this parameter can be specified.

Range:

active: the active partition group
inactive: the inactive partition group

Default:

active

serial (optional)

Controls the manner in which cards are initialized.

Range:

yes: cards of the specified APPL type are initialized one at a time
no: cards of the specified APPL type are initialized simultaneously

Default:

no

type (optional)

SM Type. The type of RTDB data that can be loaded on an E5-SM8G-B or SLIC card.

Range:

dn: initialize SM cards running the SIP64, ENUM64 or SCCP64 gpl, with SM type DN.
elap: initialize SM cards running the SIP64 or SCCP64 gpl, with SM type ELAP.
epap: initialize SM cards running the SIP64, ENUM64, or SCCP64 gpl, with SM type EPAP.
gtt: initialize SM or SLIC cards running the SCCP64, GTT enabled IPSG gpl, with SM type GTT.
imsi: initialize SM cards running the SCCP64 gpl, with SM type IMSI.
nosccp: initialize the SLIC card running the IPSG application having no GTT functionality.

Default:

none

Example

init-card:loc=1113:prtngrp=inactive

init-card:loc=1101:data=persist

init-card:loc=1113:initclk=yes

init-card:appl=oam:initclk=yes:force=yes

init-card:appl=ipsg

init-card:type=epap

init-card:appl=deirhc

init-card:appl=enumhc

init-card:appl=ipsg:type=gtt

init-card:appl=ipsg:type=nosccp

init-card:appl=ipsg:data=persist:perdata=gtt

Dependencies

The shelf and card must be equipped.

The loc or appl or type parameter must be specified in the command. The parameters cannot be specified together in the command, except for when appl=ipsg.

This command cannot be entered when CAT2 IPSM to OAM syncing is in progress.

Note:

An exception to this MTT is when appl=ipsg. In this case, it is possible to specify the 'type' parameter. The legal values of the 'type' parameter with appl=ipsg are type=gtt (Initialize all GTT-enabled IPSG cards) and type=nosccp (Initialize all GTT-disabled IPSG cards).

The following card locations (loc parameter) are not allowed for this command: 1117, 1118, and all xy09 and xy10 card locations (where x is the frame and y is the shelf).

If the loc and initclk parameters are specified, the loc parameter value must be card location 1113 or 1115. If the appl and initclk parameters are specified, the appl parameter value must be oam.

The force parameter must be specified for the cards that are not in the In-service Normal state.

The serial parameter is valid only when used with the appl parameter.

The appl=all parameter can be specified only when the serial=yes parameter is also specified.

A valid value must be specified for the appl parameter.

The initclk, appl, and data parameters must be specified before the force parameter can be specified.

The data parameter is valid only for SCCP card locations or GPLs/MPS database (VSCCP) card locations or GPLs/SIP/ENUM card locations, GPLs, or GTT-enabled IPSG card locations.

The card location (loc) must be within the allowed range.

The specified card must exist in the card database and must be a logical processing element.

An EPAP-based feature or an LNP feature that is warm-restart-capable must be enabled, or SIP must be enabled, or at least one ENUM card or one GTT-enabled IPSG card must be present before this command can be entered with the data=persist parameter.

If the serial=yes parameter is specified, the appl parameter must specify a network type application value or must be equal to all.

A primary Service Module card must be provisioned.

The command cannot be executed if system maintenance is in progress.

The A-Port, EIR, G-Flex, G-Port, INP, IS41 GSM Migration (IGM), LNP ELAP Configuration, PPSMS, Prepaid IDP Relay Query (IDP Relay), or V-Flex feature must be turned on, or the ATINP feature must be enabled before the data parameter can be specified.

If a removable drive is inserted in the system, then the prtngrp=inactive parameter cannot be specified.

The loc parameter must be specified with a value of 1113 or 1115 before the prtngrp parameter can be specified.

If an Extended BERT is running, the appl parameter cannot be specified in this command to initialize multiple cards.

If type specified is epap, elap or gtt for VSCCP, then the Dual ExAP Config, SIPNP feature must be enabled. For appl=ipsg and type=gtt, no such features must be enabled.

If type specified is imsi or dn for VSCCP, then the EPAP Data Split feature must be ON.

The data parameter can only be specified for VSCCP/SIPHC/IPSG Application cards.

Note:

The data parameter is valid only for SLIC IPSG cards and not for ENET/ENET-B IPSG cards.

If the IPSG application is running with SLIC H/W on the location specified by the loc parameter, then type=gtt and type=nosccp are the only valid values of the type parameter. For any other APPL, type=nosccp is an invalid value of the type parameter.

The perdata parameter is only valid when data=persist and the loc/appl parameter is specified. The type parameter with perdata is redundant and not allowed.

Note:

The card at the specified loc must either run the IPSG32 GPL or VSCCP application
The card appl specified must either be IPSG or VSCCP

With IPSG/VSCCP application, the type parameter is allowed. For appl=ipsg, type can be nosccp/gtt only. And, for appl=vsccp, type can be dn/imsi/epap/elap/gtt only.

The init-card command cannot be issued when SFAPP(P)->OAM sync is ON.

Notes

The TDM card has a processor but no application.

If the type specified is gtt in the init-card command and only a GTT-enabled IPSG card is present in system, then the MTT 3115 will not be observed, as there is no dependency of the Dual ExAP feature on GTT-enabled IPSG card.
