PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE OPENING THE PACKAGE(S) OR USING THE LUCENT SWITCH(ES) CONTAINING THE SOFTWARE, AND BEFORE USING THE ACCOMPANYING USER DOCUMENTATION. OPENING THE PACKAGE(S) OR USING THE LUCENT SWITCH(ES) CONTAINING THE PROGRAM WILL INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT. IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT, LUCENT IS UNWILLING TO LICENSE THE PROGRAM TO YOU, IN WHICH EVENT YOU SHOULD RETURN THE PROGRAM WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS FROM SHIPMENT TO THE PLACE FROM WHICH IT WAS ACQUIRED, AND YOUR LICENSE FEE WILL BE REFUNDED. THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE PROGRAM BETWEEN YOU AND LUCENT, AND IT SUPERSEDES ANY PRIOR PROPOSAL, REPRESENTATION OR UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

1. License Grant. Lucent hereby grants to you, and you accept, a non-exclusive,

non-transferable license to use the computer software, including all patches, error corrections, updates and revisions thereto in machine-readable, object code form only (the “Software”), and the accompanying User Documentation, only as authorized in this License Agreement. The Software may be used only on a single computer owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by you; or in the event of inoperability of that computer, on a backup computer selected by you. You agree that you will not pledge, lease, rent, or share your rights under this License Agreement, and that you will not, without Lucent’s prior written consent, assign or transfer your rights hereunder. You agree that you may not modify, reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise translate the Software or permit a third party to do so. You may make one copy of the Software and User Documentation for backup purposes. Any such copies of the Software or the User Documentation shall include Lucent’s copyright and other proprietary notices. Except as authorized under this paragraph, no copies of the Program or any portions thereof may be made by you or any person under your authority or control.

2. Lucent’s Rights. You agree that the Software and the User Documentation are

proprietary, confidential products of Lucent or Lucent's licensor protected under US copyright law and you will use your best efforts to maintain their confidentiality. You further acknowledge and agree that all right, title and interest in and to the Program, including associated intellectual property rights, are and shall remain with Lucent or Lucent's licensor.

3. License Fees. The license fees paid by you are paid in consideration of the license

granted under this License Agreement.

4. Term. This License Agreement is effective upon your opening of the package(s) or

use of the switch(es) containing Software and shall continue until terminated. You may terminate this License Agreement at any time by returning the Program and all copies or portions thereof to Lucent. Lucent may terminate this License Agreement upon the breach by you of any term hereof. Upon such termination by Lucent, you agree to return to Lucent the Program and all copies or portions thereof. Termination of this License Agreement shall not prejudice Lucent's rights to damages or any other available remedy.

5. Limited Warranty. Lucent warrants, for your benefit alone, for a period of 90

days from the date of shipment of the Program by Lucent (the “Warranty Period”) that the program diskettes in which the Software is contained are free from defects in material and workmanship. Lucent further warrants, for your benefit alone, that during the Warranty Period the Program shall operate substantially in accordance with the User Documentation. If during the Warranty Period, a defect in the Program appears, you may return the Program to the party from which the Program was acquired for either replacement or, if so elected by such party, refund of amounts paid by you under this License Agreement. You agree that the foregoing constitutes your sole and exclusive remedy for breach by Lucent of any warranties made under this Agreement.

EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH ABOVE, THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED “AS IS”, AND LUCENT DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND ANY WARRANTIES OF NONINFRINGEMENT.

7. Proprietary Rights Indemnification. Lucent shall at its expense defend you

against and, subject to the limitations set forth elsewhere herein, pay all costs and damages made in settlement or awarded against you resulting from a claim that the Program as supplied by Lucent infringes a United States copyright or a United States patent, or misappropriates a United States trade secret, provided that you: (a) provide prompt written notice of any such claim, (b) allow Lucent to direct the defense and settlement of the claim, and (c) provide Lucent with the authority, information, and assistance that Lucent deems reasonably necessary for the defense and settlement of the claim. You shall not consent to any judgment or decree or do any other act in compromise of any such claim without first obtaining Lucent’s written consent. In any action based on such a claim, Lucent may, at its sole option, either: (1) obtain for you the right to continue using the Program, (2) replace or modify the Program to avoid the claim, or (3) if neither (1) nor (2) can reasonably be effected by Lucent, terminate the license granted hereunder and give you a prorata refund of the license fee paid for such Program, calculated on the basis of straight-line depreciation over a five-year useful life. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Lucent will have no liability for any infringement or misappropriation claim of any kind if such claim is based on: (i) the use of other than the current unaltered release of the Program and Lucent has provided or offers to provide such release to you for its then current license fee, or (ii) use or combination of the Program with programs or data not supplied or approved by Lucent to the extent such use or combination caused the claim.

8. Export Control. You agree not to export or disclose to anyone except a United

States national any portion of the Program supplied by Lucent without first obtaining the required permits or licenses to do so from the US Office of Export Administration, and any other appropriate government agency.

9. Governing Law. This License Agreement shall be construed and governed in

accordance with the laws and under the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, USA. Any dispute arising out of this Agreement shall be referred to an arbitration proceeding in Boston, Massachusetts, USA by the American Arbitration Association.

10. Miscellaneous. If any action is brought by either party to this License

Agreement against the other party regarding the subject matter hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, in addition to any other relief granted, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of arbitration. Should any term of this License Agreement be declared void or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration shall have no effect on the remaining terms hereof. The failure of either party to enforce any rights granted hereunder or to take action against the other party in the event of any breach hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver by that party as to subsequent enforcement of rights or subsequent actions in the event of future breaches.

About This Guide

The B-STDX, CBX, and GX Network Management Station Installation Guide provides software installation instructions for setting up your UNIX Network Management Station (NMS) platform. This task-oriented guide describes, step-by-step, the process for installing the required software for configuring Lucent switches.

This guide supports the following NMS software release:

™

•NavisCore

Note – This guide is intended to be used for fresh installations of NMS software. It should not be used for upgrading existing networks. This guide provides basic NMS installation guidelines but does not provide network/configuration-specific information that will be necessary for production environments. With the introduction of Sybase 12.5.0.1, using default settings during the Sybase installation is no longer an appropriate path and will result in degradation of performance on the Sybase server. Contact the Technical Support organization for specific tuning information that is needed based upon network configuration and usage. See “Technical Support” on

page xviii.

, Release 09.00.00.00

What You Need to Know

As a reader of this guide, you should be familiar with UNIX and HP OpenView. You should also know about relational databases to properly maintain Sybase, which is used by NavisCore.

This guide assumes that you have already installed the Lucent switch hardware. See the “Related Documents” section (page xvii) for a list of documents that describe these and other tasks.

Be sure to read the Software Release Notice (SRN) that accompanies each product. The SRN contains the most current feature information and requirements.

Overview

The Network Management Station (NMS) is a dedicated Sun system on which you run software programs to configure, monitor, and control a Lucent switch network. This chapter describes the recommended hardware and required software to install the NMS.

General Requirements

Lucent requires that you use a dedicated Sun system for network management. Lucent does not support any other UNIX operating system.

NMS System Configuration Requirements

You can configure your NMS in the following ways:

Single-system NMS Configuration — Sybase and one Lucent product (NavisCore, Statistics Server, or CNM Proxy Agent) reside on one workstation.

Two-system NMS Configuration — HP OpenView and NavisCore reside on one workstation, and Sybase resides on another. This type of configuration enables Sybase to support multiple Sybase databases (NavisCore, Statistics Server, and CNM Proxy Agent).

Large-system NMS Configuration — Sybase, Statistics Server, and one other Lucent product (NavisCore or CNM Proxy Agent) all reside on one workstation. Sybase can support all Lucent server products that reside on remote systems. For this configuration, Lucent recommends the Sun

Enterprise™4500 (see Table 1-1 o n

B-STDX, CBX, and GX Network Management Station Installation Guide 1-1

Overview

NMS System Configuration Requirements

Tabl e 1-1 lists the system configuration specifications required by the NMS for

optimal performance.

In addition, your workstation(s) must be equipped with the following:

•CD-ROM drive

• Tape drive

Note – You do not need the tape drive for the NMS installation because the NMS software comes on CD-ROM. However, you need the tape drive for Sybase database backups. The tape drive does not need to be directly connected to either the HP OpenView/NavisCore or Sybase NMS Servers. However, to perform Sybase backups, the database must be saved to tape and the tape drive needs to be accessible from the Sybase Server.

Beta Draft Confidential

Note – Lucent recommends that you use a 21-inch monitor for optimal appearance of

windows and fonts in the HP OpenView/NavisCore graphical user interface.

Table 1-1. NavisCore System Configuration Requirements (Continued)

Environment System Role System Type CPUs RAM Disk(s)

The following constraints and assumptions apply to these recommendations:

• Each system requires an OS disk.

• The requirements above apply to NavisCore 05.01.00.00 or greater.

• NavisCore / Provisioning Server includes Access Control Server (ACS) requirements.

• Recommendations assume Lucent NavisCore and Provisioning Server only; additional software on a system will increase system requirements.

• Recommendations assume an average of provisioning up to 10,000 circuits a day per Provisioning Server. Note: if you share a database, the larger the number of circuits provisioned a day, the greater the load on the Sybase database.

• Support for higher densities will increase resource requirements.

• Users include a combination of applications and end-users accessing the system; the more intensive the application or user access, and the larger the number of simultaneous logins, the greater the load on the system.

• Two-disk database installation is the default. Four disk database installation is recommended if the customer has the extra disks: it will increase performance.

• Lucent recommends using a two- or large-system NMS configuration for optimized network performance.

• Users should be shared across NavisCore / Provisioning Server installations where multiple servers are recommended.

• These recommendations are based upon performance of NavisCore software within Lucent lab environments. Customer-specific requirements may require additional resources to provide the level of expected performance.

• Call Lucent Professional Services for quotes on custom installations and network planning.

Note – For specific system requirements for NavisXtend™ applications, see the appropriate NavisXtend SRN.

Note – If you need help determining which system(s) best fits your NMS configuration, contact Lucent Professional Services through your Account representative.

Note – You cannot run Sybase 12.5.0.1 with less than 512-MB RAM.

Sybase Prerequisite Tasks

In this guide, Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) 12.5.0.1 will be referred to as Sybase 12.5.0.1.

The Sybase 12.5.0.1 relational database software program stores database information and provides backup and recovery of database files.

This chapter describes Sybase prerequisite tasks, which include:

• Partitioning the second disk(s) using raw partitions

• Loading the Lucent-supplied Sybase 12.5.0.1 CD-ROM and extracting the scripts

• Setting up the system before installing Sybase 12.5.0.1

Note – With the introduction of Sybase 12.5.0.1, using default settings during the Sybase installation is no longer an appropriate path and will result in degradation of performance on the Sybase server. If you have not done so yet, contact the Technical Support organization for specific tuning information that is needed based upon network configuration and usage.See “Technical Support” on page xviii.

Before You Begin

Before you perform Sybase prerequisite tasks, verify that you:

• Are following the correct NMS installation sequence (See “Installation Sequence”

on page 1-10)

• Have installed Solaris 8

• Have installed Solaris 8 patch(es)

• Do not already have Sybase installed on your machine

You can verify if Sybase has been installed on your machine by checking to see if the

/opt/sybase directory exists and/or by trying to become the Sybase user by entering

the following command:

Note – The procedures in Chapter 3, “Sybase Prerequisite Tasks” and Chapter 4,

“Installing Sybase 12.5.0.1” utilize the Lucent script to install Sybase. If you are not

using the Lucent script to install Sybase, contact Technical Assistance Center prior to installing Sybase. See “Technical Support” on page xviii.

Note – Default Sybase parameters will not support the NavisCore database. Sybase must be tuned on a per server, per configuration basis. Contact Technical Assistance Center prior to installing Sybase. See “Technical Support” on page xviii.

The entire Sybase installation process (prerequisite tasks and the actual installation) could take up to 1 and a half hours, depending on your configuration.

If you have a single-drive NMS that uses file-system files, proceed to “Loading the

Lucent-supplied Sybase 12.5.0.1 CD-ROM” on page 3-13. This is for lab

configurations only.

If you have a two or more drive NMS that uses raw partitions for the disks to be used for the Sybase installation, proceed to “Partitioning the Disk(s) to be Used for Sybase

Using Raw Partitions” on page 3-3.

Disabling IP Discovery

IP Discovery finds all IP-addressable nodes on your network and creates an object for each discovered node. Lucent switches do not respond to IP Discovery; therefore, the script disables it. See Appendix C, “IP Discovery” to re-enable IP Discovery.

Caution – Lucent does not support IP Discovery. Enabling this feature severely

affects the performance of your NMS Server.
