5–1.4 Preliminary: installation of different SWPs in the same PC

If you like to install different Alcatel–Lucent SWPs (1320CT–based) in the same PC, you must be awarethat there are some SW components to be installed which are common to such SWPs.

The basic principle is that, due the ascendant compatibility, for such common components you must take

and install, from each SWP, the highest version components, e.g.: – Java Run Time Environment : highest version – Lower Layers Manager : highest version – Craft Terminal Base Platform [Craft Terminal Base Platform Q3 Add–On (EML–IM)] : highest version – Craft Terminal Base Platform SNMP Add–On (EML–IM) : highest version – Craft Terminal Base Platform Help On–Line Add–On : highest version – Craft Terminal NE Type & Release Configuration Add–On: highest version

Just as an example, Fig. 274. on page 463 shows the SW components and points out the common SWcomponents of: – SWP 9600LSY V2.0.4 – SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 (which this handbook refers to)(screens are those appearing after the SWP installation start–up, as in step 5 ) on page 466).

N.B. as far as the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 is concerned, JRE and Alcatel Lower LayersManager do not appear in the SWP CD–ROM start–up screen because: – JRE is automatically installed, if necessary, according to rules explained in para.4–2.2.3

on page 294; – Alcatel Lower Layers Manager is installed, if necessary, on Operator explicit request only,

as explained in para.5–1.7 on page 470.

To make the comparison between the versions of the common SW components, please refer to theProduct Release Notes associated to the SWPs you want to install. As far as the SWP 9400AWY IDU16

V2.0.4 is concerned, refer to para.4–1.3.4.3 on page 283.In term of method to install: – use CT installation Product Guided and select component depending of the rule before; – install at first the SWP with the common SW components highest versions, and after the other SWPs

leaving unselected the common SW components already installed.Please extend these considerations to the need of installing more than two different SWPs.

Procedure example (referred to the two SWP cited above):

1 ) compare the PC characteristics and verify that your PC meets the highest requirements (as faras the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 is concerned, refer to para.5–1.1.1 on pages 459–460

2 ) uninstall all Alcatel–Lucent products (the “clean” situation simplifies the following operations)3 ) install the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 , as described in para.5–1.5 on page 464, selecting

all components, because its common SW components have versions higher than those of theSWP 9600LSY V2.0.4

4 ) carry out the local copy in PC environment of the TCO Suite, as described in para.5–1.6 on page468

5 ) carry out the installation of LLMAN from the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 CD–ROM asdescribed in para.5–1.7 on page 470, because its version is higher than that of the SWP9600LSY V2.0.4

6 ) complete the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 installation as described in steps 4 ) to 8 ) of pointb ) on page 461

7 ) using the CT installation Product Guided, start the installation of the SWP 9600LSY V2.0.4,de–selecting (see Fig. 274. below) the components JRE V1.3 , Alcatel Lower Layers Manager

V3.4.0 , CT–K v3.2.0 and HOLCT–K–ADD–ON v1.1.0, because already installed (with higherversions) by the SWP 9400AWY IDU16 V2.0.4 installation

8 ) complete the SWP 9600LSY V2.0.4 installation as described in relevant documentation.

5–1.9 End of SW installation from SWP CD–ROM

Having reached this phase, you have finished the Software transfer from SWP CD–ROM into the PC

environment. Now, you can extract the SWP CD–ROM from the PC’s CD–ROM unit.

Now proceed with NE software downloading preparation, para.5–1.10 below.

5–1.10 NE software downloading preparation

N.B. This description is retrieved from 1320CT Basic Operator’s Handbook and is repeated here for

ease of operation.

This phase must be manually carried out by the Operator and has the scope of making the new equipment

software package available for its downloading toward the NE’s equipment controller and the peripheral

units (such a downloading is explained in Chapter 6–8 on page 663).

This operation is independent from the NE management state and must be executed with the following

procedure:

1 ) Launch the CT by:

– TCO Suite Main Menu ⇒ Operational & Maintenance

or:

– Start⇒ 1320CT

For details, refer to point e ) on page 324

2 ) On NES (Network Element Synthesis) screen that opens, from the Supervision pull down

menu select the File Administration and then the Software Administration option, as shown

in Fig. 314. herebelow.

4 ) In the screen that opens (Fig. 316. below is an example) select the directory where the NE

software package is installed:

Alcatel / JUSMw V.x.x.x / ect / swdw / <equipment name> / <version> / <descriptor file> (*)

(*) the 9400AWY equipment name is “R94AWY” ;

the version is that you want;

the descriptor file has always the extension “.DSC”.N.B. The NE software package can also be selected from the CD–ROM used for the

installation of the NE software. In this case, after inserting the CD–ROM in the driver,

choose the following:

ect / swdw / <equipment name> / <version> / <descriptor file>

5 ) On last screen (containing the “.DSC” file), click on Open to activate the installation of the

selected“.DSC” file. At the end of the process, a confirmation message is displayed:

6 ) At this point the NE Software Package is installed and available to be downloaded on the

Network Elements (as described in chapter 6–8 on page 663).

Such availability can be verified (as shown in Fig. 317. herebelow) operating in the Network

Element Synthesis screen (Fig. 314. on page 499), selecting, from the Supervision pull down

menu, the File Administration and then the Software Administration option.

5–1.11 CT initial configuration

N.B. Procedures described in the following are carried out with the PC disconnected from the NE.

5–1.11.1 Craft Terminal configuration

This procedure is necessary to configure the PC in order to manage the Network Elements and includesthe following types of configuration:

– PC hostname

– CT configuration

– Communication Protocol (TCP/IP):

• TCP/IP without a network card

• TCP/IP with a network card

• Switching between the two configurations

– Serial Communication with the NE

– Screen settings

In order to set–up these configurations, refer to:

1320CT Basic Craft Terminal Operator’s Handbook ,

chapter “SOFTWARE INSTALLATION”, paragraph “Craft Terminal Configuration”

5–1.11.2 Craft Terminal local connection to the NE

The CT can be locally connected to the NE preferably through the Ethernet Network Port, or through the

Serial Port.

Only one connection can be active at a time.

Please refer to para.4–2.4.2 on page 321 to change from Ethernet Network Port to Serial port or viceversa.

N.B. this setting operation is not necessary if you login the local NE through the Operational &

Maintenance button of the TCO Suite Main Menu.

5–1.12 EML construction

After having activated the 1320CT application (by TCO Suite Main Menu⇒ Operational & Maintenance

or Start⇒ 1320CT) the “Network Element Synthesis screen” appears (example in Fig. 314. on page 499).

This NE map specifies the NEs that can be reached by the ECT. This map must be built by the Operator.

N.B. This map is empty in the case of first installation of ECT on a PC.The map content is usually not affected when you upgrade SWP–release–”version” (e.g. from

V2.0.x to V2.0.y).

The set of procedures necessary to configure the ECT in order to manage the Network Elements (which

include the management of Maps, Submaps and Network Elements, like creation, deletion, saving,

opening, etc) is named EML construction .

In order to carry out these procedures, refer to the:

– 1320CT Basic Craft Terminal Rel.3.x Operator’s Handbook (see Tab. 116. on page 708)

• section “EML CONSTRUCTION”.

An example of NE creation in the map is given in point g ) on page 326.
