MA4000 Installation Manager Overview

The MA4000 Installation Manager application is designed to assist our NEC Associates/Partners and our NEC customers in gathering, correlating, customizing, validating and implementing their installation plan. This tool expedites the process of gathering this information, customizing it, and then turning the information into system programming. The number of hours required by a system technician using Maintenance Administration Tools to program the system is greatly reduced using the MA4000 Installation Manager. The larger the system, the greater the benefit.

The MA4000 Installation Manager contains a high level of import and export capabilities allowing sharing of information with many other types of applications. Using these capabilities makes it possible to easily re-use the information in other NEC Unified Solutions, Inc. products, as well as common tools such as Microsoft Excel.

IM Project (or just Project) A project is the set of data that is associated with a specific installation. It is assumed that an installation corresponds to a single customer. Therefore, each customer/installation should have its own project.

A project is not stored in a single file as you might expect (as it is in Microsoft Access or Microsoft Excel). As data is collected, the information is stored in the Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE) which is a server-based database. The management of this information will require some features within the application to access, remove, and backup this information.

IM Project Template This is the database containing all information for a particular installation. It includes all templates, all customer users, and related information to the installation.

IMPORTANT order to have a different language, NEC will need to send to the user a package of files containing a utility to translate all the English descriptions to the new language. The user will then need to perform the language translation and modify the basic data to the files, then send it to NEC. After NEC receives the updated package, NEC will re-complle the MA4000 Installation Manager with the new language and basic data.

MA4000 Installation Manager requires Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine (MSDE) 2000. If a database server is already installed then you might be required to remove any conflicting database servers. Keep in mind the MA4000 Installation

IMPORTANT Manager will be compatible with SQL Server 2000 but the operating systems identified in Table 2-1 will not support MS SQL server. A server class operating system is required to support SQL Server 2000.

MSDE 2000 is available to install from the MA4000 Installation Manager CD.

In order for the MA4000 Installation Manager to operate properly, your operating environment must meet the requirements listed in Table 2-1.

Initializing the Flash Card and Installing the System Software (SV7000 MPS Only)

		The following procedure contains a step which can result in the loss of existing data
		on your computer if performed improperly. This step is indicated with a Caution
CAUTION		symbol. If you are unsure whether you understand the step completely, contact the
		NEC Technical Assistance Center (NTAC) before proceeding.

Introduction and Requirements

The SV7000 MPS ships with an empty ATA flash card. Before you start the server, you must initialize the card and load it with system software the server requires to run. Then, you use the flash card to transfer the system software to the server itself.

This procedure requires the system software CD (supplied with your system) and a laptop PC with a PCMICIA card slot. Your laptop PC must be configured to boot from the CD drive.

To configure your PC to boot from a CD, you may need to change the boot drive order in your computer’s BIOS. You can usually display the BIOS settings screen by

pressing a specific key during the boot sequence.

NOTE

For specific information on configuring your laptop to boot from a CD, consult your computer’s documentation.

The SV7000 MPS runs the Linux operating system. When you boot from the supplied system software CD, your laptop will also be running Linux. You can then use Linux to initialize the flash card and transfer the MPS system software to it.

You should also be familiar with the NEC Maintenance and Administration Terminal (MAT) application. For specific information on using the MAT, consult its online help documentation.

Major Tasks

The following lists the major tasks you will complete when you initialize the flash card and load system software on the MPS:

•Boot your laptop from a CD containing the Linux operating system.

•Use the Linux command line interface to format the flash card.

•Copy the MPS operating system files to the flash card.

•Insert the flash card in the MPS server.

•Connect your laptop directly to the MPS.

•Copy the system software from the flash card to the MPS.

•Specify the MPS’ new TCP/IP network settings.

•Restart the MPS using the new network settings.

MA4000 Installation Manager User Guide - Revision 7

2-8 Getting Started

Step-by-Step Procedure

To initialize the flash card, install it in the server, and load the MPS system software do the following:

Step 1 Insert the MPS system software CD into your computer, then reboot.

—Linux status messages display, followed by a video mode prompt.

Step 2 Press Space to accept the default video mode. A keyboard selection prompt displays.

Step 3 Press Enter to accept the default keyboard configuration. A Linux command prompt displays.

Step 4 Enter root as the login ID, then enter xxxx as the password (the password entry will not display on the screen).

—The Linux command prompt changes to #, indicating you are logged in as a root user.

You must enter these values exactly as they are shown here because the Linux operating system, unlike Windows, is case-sensitive. That is, root and Root are not identical.

IMPORTANT

Be careful to enter the values in the remaining steps exactly as they are shown, including spaces.

Step 5 Type the following at the command prompt, then press Enter:

/bin/dmesg | grep hd

—A list of configured devices on your PC displays, designated hda, hdb, hdc, etc.

Step 6 Use the list of displayed devices to locate your laptop’s hard drive and CD-ROM drive. Write down their designations (hda, hdc, etc.) so you will remember them.

It is critical you correctly identify your CD-ROM and internal hard drive from the list of displayed devices. You will need the correct designation in later steps to select which device will be formatted.

IMPORTANT

Linux identifies drives on your computer with the hd designation, plus a letter starting with a and continuing alphabetically. Commonly, the internal hard drive is hda and the internal CD-ROM is hdc. However, your configuration may be different. You can identify your drives using the information displayed after the previous step. For example, here is a possible drive listing:

hda: HTS54809349, ATA disk drive

hdc: Samsung CDRW-DVD, ATAPI CD-ROM drive hda: HTS54809349, 76319MB w/ 7877kB cache

hdc: ATAPI 24X DVD-ROM CD-RW drive, 2048kB cache hda: hda1, hda2

This listing shows the internal 80MB hard drive as hda. You can easily identify the

CD-ROM drive as hdc.

Step 7 Type the following at the command prompt, the press Enter:

mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom

Replace hdc in the command, if necessary, with the designation your laptop uses for the internal CD-ROM device.

—Linux mounts the CD-ROM and informs you the device is read-only. Step 8 Type the following at the command prompt, then press Enter:

/mnt/cdrom/MKINIT

After a few moments, the MKINIT finish message displays.

Step 9 Insert the flash card in your laptop’s PCMCIA card slot.

—Linux reads the card and displays its size and drive designation (hde, etc.). You will need this drive designation in Step 11.

Step 10 Press Enter to return to the command prompt (#).

This next step will destroy any existing data on the specified device. Be certain you have not entered the designation for your laptop’s hard drive when typing this

command.

CAUTION

Step 11 Type the following at the command prompt, then press Enter:

MK_FLASH hde

Replace hde in the above command, if necessary, with the drive designation your laptop displayed for the flash drive after you inserted the card.

—You can ignore the DriveReady and DriveStatus error messages.

—The write finish status message displays when the flash card initialization completes. This process may take 20-30 minutes.

Step 12 Remove the flash card from your laptop.

—You can ignore the resulting error messages.

Step 13 Type the following at the command prompt, the press Enter:

exit

Step 14 Remove the MPS system software CD from your laptop.

Step 15 Reboot your laptop in the normal manner.

—After it reboots, it should be running the Windows operating system. Step 16 Be sure the MPS is OFF, then insert the flash card in the appropriate slot.

Step 17 Turn the MPS ON.

MA4000 Installation Manager User Guide - Revision 7

2-10 Getting Started

Step 18 Connect an ethernet cable between your laptop and the Ether1 jack on the front of the MPS.

—You must use a crossover Ethernet cable, not the more common straight-through type.

Step 19 On your laptop, open the Network (or Network Connections) control panel.

Step 20 Change your laptop’s network settings to the following:

IP Address: 192.168.0.5

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.0.254

Step 21 Close the network control panel to save the new settings.

Step 22 Launch the PC Pro by doing one of the following:

—Open Installation Manager, then select PCPro... from the Tools menu.

—Locate the PCPro application on your hard drive (if previously installed) and launch it.

Step 23 Log on to the MPS using its default IP (192.168.0.1), leaving the user and password fields blank.

Step 24 Enter the ADTM command in the PCPro to display the default switch configurations.

Step 25 Change the MPS’ IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address to the appropriate values for your network.

Step 26 Click Apply.

Even though the values appear to revert to their default values, they have in fact been changed. This is because although you have changed their value in the MPS’s

memory, they have not yet been stored to the flash card.

NOTE

Step 27 Enter the SINZ command in the MAT, then select System Initialize (Reboot).

Step 28 Click Execute. A confirmation dialog displays.

Step 29 Click Yes. The MPS reboots.

—During this time the ACT light flashes GREEN and the Load light is RED.

—The MPS is not ready until the ACT light remains solid GREEN.

Step 30 Change your laptop’s TCP/IP network settings back to their original values for use on your network.
