C2:9125 TC with TCIF subrack (TCIF and MT120 configuration).

C3:TCIF commissioning (useful in case of upgrading a running TC).

C4:MT120 commissioning (useful in case of Atermux extension).

Options

None.

Initial State

If the commissioning is done after a complete 9125 TC installation:

The equipment is installed and connected as described in the Installation Manual

(power supply, PCM connected to DDF)

The STM1 and Ethernet cables are also installed.

The TCIF subrack is introduced in the 9125 TC with MT120 boards already running

The equipment is powered down.

If the commissioning is done after 9125 TC extension with TCIF subrack:

The TCIF subrack is installed in the 9125 TC and powered off

MT120 boards are operational.

Final State

At the end of the commissioning, the 9125 TC is commissioned, powered up and

connected to the :

BSC and MSC

IP&STM1 networks.

Note:During the TCIF/TCIFI board replacement procedure, the FPGA and NIOS

components are automatically upgraded.

Preparation

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites must be met:

The site must comply with the safety rules (see the Alcatel-Lucent BSS - BSS Methods

Handbook).

The site must conform to SPP-43, Specification for Site Preparation 9125 TC.

Site-Specific Information

The following site-specific information is needed before starting the commissioning:

name)

Number of MT120 boards in the rack

Position of the MT120 boards in subracks, in case provision for further BSC (Ater

Mux) extension is foreseen

For TCIF commissioning IP addresses and NTP Server IP addresses are needed.

MT120 Configuration

Number of Ater Mux / BSC

BSC allocation

DSP allocation: linear or random

Software required for board downloading (with or without AMR).

Note: The BSC_Id and Ater Mux number must be unique in the TC.

Do not assign the BSC name to index 0.

How to Prepare PC for TCIF Installation

Overview

Note: If the TCIF boards are not new (or have been installed in a different version of

software) and the TC was previously declared to an OMC-R, it is first necessary to

remove the TC from OMC-R (see Remove 9125 TC with TC STM1-IP subrack from

the BSS Configuration Handbook) before the starting the TCIF installation.

Note: This section is performed back office in order not to spend time onsite

unnecessarily.

The time interval necessary to perform this section depends on the speed of

connection in the case where all the services must be downloaded via the Internet.

Configure NFS Server

Procedure


...................................................................................................................................................................................................

1 Click on Cygwin icon to start the application.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

2 In the Cygwin shell window, enter the following commands:

/usr/bin/nfs-server-config

Do you want to continue?

yes

Do you want to run the nfsd server under a separate user account?

no

The following additional questions are displayed if the NFS server is

already configured and a reconfiguration is performed:

Do you want to re-install the portmap service?

no

Do you want to re-install the mountd service?

no

Do you want to re-install the nfsd service?

no

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

3 Edit the export directories:

vi /etc/exports

If a new window with the version of the vi editor appears, close it.

Check the line containing the local export directory, inside this file.

For example, if the TCIF new software package is under Windows Explorer in the

directory C:/SOFT, in the /etc/exports the following line appears: /SOFT/ (ro,

all_squash).

If the directory is not listed in the exports file, you have to add manually the above

mentioned line.

Note: This new line introduced will have no "#" in the beginning.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

4 To start the NFS server, under Windows, click on Start -> Run and enter services.msc

There are three services associated with NFS:

Cygwin mountd

Cygwin nfsd

Cygwin portmap

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

5 Right click on each of these and use the popup menu to start all three servers.

Result: Portmap starts automatically when you start either nfsd or mountd first. There

is a dependency between system services that Windows tries to maintain

automatically.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

6 Check, in the services window, that each service is started.

Note:After editing any of the configuration files from the /etc directory, you must

restart these services. Because mountd and nfsd are configured to depend on portmap,

it is sufficient to right click on portmap and select restart.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

7 During the Cygwin usage, turn off the Windows Firewall and any other firewalls installed

on your PC.

Under Windows, go to Start->Run and enter:

firewall.cpl

Note: If the following message appears Windows Firewall settings cannot

be displayed because the associated service is not running.

Do you want to start the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection

Sharing (ICS) service?, click on YES

Result:The Firewall Settings window opens. From here, depending upon the

Windows version, make the appropriate changes to turn off the Windows Firewall.

Reshuffle MT120 Boards in the Rack

Overview

Only perform this procedure if it is applicable.

Use the anti-static wrist strap when reshuffling the MT120 boards.

Do not plug in the spare MT120 boards.

The 9125 TC rack is delivered from the factory with the MT120 boards filled from

bottom to top (starting with subrack 4) and from left to right with no gaps.

If the PCM cables were run by the top of the rack and the rack is not fully equipped, the

MT120 boards must be filled in the rack from top to bottom (starting with subrack 1) and

from left to right.

Procedure

Reshuffle the MT120 boards in the rack:

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

1 If the PCMs run by the bottom (see Site-Specific Information (p. 1-6)) and if the rack

is not fully equipped but provision for BSC / Ater Mux extension was foreseen, arrange

the MT120 boards according to the requested configuration.

Respect the filling rules from bottom to top and from left to right, leaving the

corresponding gaps for extension.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

2 If the PCMs run by the top (see Site-Specific Information (p. 1-6)), and if the rack is

not fully equipped, move all the MT120 boards from bottom to top of the rack and

arrange them according to the requested configuration.

Respect the filling rules from top to bottom and from left to right, leaving the

corresponding gaps for extension if provision for BSC / Ater Mux extension was

foreseen.

Note: The fan units must be moved together with the MT120 boards if the TC

rack is not pre-equipped with fans.
