Overview

This chapter presents an outline of Real Time CPU capacity for the

Option 11C, and Option 11C Mini. In addition, it describes Option 11C and Option 11C Mini data storage, loading and restoring, as well as the unprotected and protected memory requirements for features applicable to the these systems.

Option 11C and Option 11C Mini data storage, loading, and restoring

For the Option 11C and Option 11C Mini system, configuration data is both stored and loaded by accessing overlay programs 43 and 143. The sequence of events where data is copied from one area to the next depends on the status of the switch - new installation, software upgrade - and the purpose of the data transfer, such as to make a backup copy of the customer database.

553-3011-100 Standard 14.00 January 2002

Memory, Storage and CPU capacity Page 13 of 544

An Option 11C with IP Expansion can be made up of both Option 11C cabinets and Option 11C Mini chassis. However, when an Option 11C Mini chassis is used, the NTDK97 Mini System Controller (MSC) card is replaced with an NTDK20 Small System Controller (SSC) card and an appropriate IP Expansion daughterboard.

Option 11C and Option 11C Mini software is stored in various areas of the NTDK20 SSC and NTDK97 MSC cards. In terms of customer data, there are four possible areas where these records can be stored (Refer to Figure 1):

DRAM — stores and accesses the active version of customer records, system data and overlay data

Primary Flash drive c: — contains two copies of customer records (primary and backup records)

Backup Flash drive z: — retains the true backup copy of the customer database

PCMCIA device a: or b: — if equipped, this 40 Mbyte device can store a complete backup copy of the customer database

Data storage

The Option 11C and 11C Mini data dump performed in LD 43, is the system’s method of backing up configuration data to its file storage devices. By invoking one of the several data dump commands in the overlay, the user is ensured that at least one backup copy of configuration data exists in a location other than DRAM (Refer to Table 1).

Data storage on the NTDK20 SSC and NTDK97 MSC

The Option 11C and Option 11C Mini offer one additional area of data storage that is truly external to the switch. This storage device can be an IBMtype PC or Macintosh-type computer, running an Option11C software feature called “Customer Configuration Backup and Restore” (CCBR). Through the use of LD 143 and the CCBR feature, the user can transfer customer records between the SSC or MSC’s Primary Flash drive to either an on-site or remotecomputer system (Refer to Table 2 for a listing of CCBR commands supported in LD 143).

Note: Refer to Administration (553-3001-311) and Maintenance (553- 3001-511) for a complete listing and description of LD 143 commands.

Data loading

An Option 11C and 11C Mini “SYSLOAD” is a sequence of events whereby the switch loads and verifies system and customer records into the NTDK20 SSC’s or NTDK97 MSC’s active memory area, or DRAM. The flow of data depends on the status of the software - new installation, software release upgrade, or a user-initiated sysload - or the commands initiated in either LD 143, or the Install Setup Program.

Despite the various ways to initiate a Sysload, the flow of data generally follows the path described below (Refer to Figure 2 for a graphical illustration):

1The Option 11C and 11C Mini searches for customer records in the Primary Flash drive. If the files are located and verified, data is loaded into the NTDK20 SSC’s or NTDK97 MSC’s DRAM.

2If the records are corrupt or cannot be found in the Primary Flash drive, the system searches the Backup Flash drive. If the customer records are located and verified, the Option 11C and 11C Mini loads the data into DRAM.

553-3011-100 Standard 14.00 January 2002

Nortel Networks 11C User Manual

Memory, Storage and CPU capacity Page 17 of 544

3If the customer records cannot be located in the Backup Flash drive, the Option 11C and 11C Mini automatically searches the PCMCIA drive. If customer records are located and verified, data is loaded into DRAM.

4If the customer records cannot be located in the PCMCIA drive, the Option 11C and 11C Mini searches the Primary Flash drive for the secondary backup (.bak) file. If the customer records are located and verified, data is loaded into DRAM.

Figure 2

Flow of data during an Option 11C or Option 11C Mini Sysload

Sysload and a new Option 11C or Option 11C Mini installation

Software for new Option 11C and 11C Mini systems is delivered on a preprogrammed Software Daughterboard for the Option 11C, or directly on the MSC for the Option 11C Mini. Once this hardware is installed and the system is powered up (SYSLOAD), the Install Setup and Loader program (LD 143) is automatically invoked. This program is menu driven and assists in loading the software into the system.

Data restoring

In the unlikely event configuration data becomes corrupted, a backup copy of the current database can be restored to the Option 11C and 11C Mini. There are four possible areas of where a backup of configuration data can be restored from — the secondary primary database, the backup flash drive, the PCMCIA drive, or an external computer hard-drive. (Refer to Table 2 for a description of the commands used to restore backup data to the Option 11C and 11C Mini.)

Note: The SWP command in LD 43 does not “restore” data to the primary flash drive: it swaps or replaces the contents of the primary drive with the data stored in the primary drive’s secondary database.

Pre-programmed data

When an Option 11C or Option 11C Mini system is initially installed, customer data must be entered into the overlay programs. Telephones, for example, must be assigned features on their keys to allow them to function properly.

However, the Main SSC or the Mini MSC can be pre-programmed with customer data. If you load pre-programmed data into the system during installation, some overlay entries will be automatically configured on the telephones. For example, you can choose a telephone model that has predetermined feature and key assignments and a preassigned class of

553-3011-100 Standard 14.00 January 2002

Memory, Storage and CPU capacity Page 19 of 544

service. This can be a significant time-saver if you have to program numerous types of telephone models.

Pre-programmed data is not mandatory for software installation. In fact, the NTDK20 or the NTDK97, can be programmed with the minimum number of files to allow the Option 11C and 11C Mini to operate.

During start-up, the Software Installation Program is automatically invoked. The Option 11C or Option 11C Mini, loads system data from the NTDK20, or the NTDK97 respectively, and prompts the user for a variety of information, including the time and date, type of installation, feature set required, and type of database. At this point, if the user selects any response other than “Default database,” pre-programmed data will not be loaded on the system.

Pre-programmed data cannot be removed from the Option 11C and 11C Mini system once it is loaded into the system. However, pre-programmed data can be bypassed during first-time system installations.

Note: The pre-programmed data on the Option 11C and 11C Mini system can provide an effective starting point for programming telephone and trunk information. Before bypassing the option of loading pre-programmed data, take the time to determine whether the default data can be used at this site.

Components of pre-programmed data

The following items are pre-programmed in the Default database on the Main Option 11C NTTK13 Software Daughterboard:

Model telephones

Trunk route data and model trunks

Numbering plan

SDI ports

Tone and digit switch

Model telephones

A model telephone can be thought of as a default set of features and class of service assigned to a telephone.

Option 11C and 11C Mini Technical Reference Guide

Page 20 of 544 Memory, Storage and CPU capacity

Telephone models simplify telephone installation. During telephone activation, the telephone prompts you to accept a default model. If a model is chosen, all keys are automatically assigned a feature and no further key programming is required. (The extension number is also predefined using the default numbering plan.)

If you do not want to accept the default model, you can create other models by following the procedures in Chapter 19 of the Option 11C Planning and Installation (553-3021-210), or Chapter 17 of the Option 11C Mini Planning and Installation (553-3021-209).

Note: Off-Premise Station (OPS) telephones do not have their own telephone models. You can, however, create OPS models by entering DD in response to the CDEN prompt in LD 10.

Trunk route data and model trunks

Pre-programmed trunk routes and trunk models simplify trunk installation procedures. A pre-programmed trunk route supports a certain trunk type, has a default access code, and must be assigned a trunk model. A trunk model supports a certain card type, trunk type, and signalling arrangement.

Trunk models are assigned to default trunk routes using the administration telephone. You can create other models by following the procedures in Chapter 20 of the Option 11C Planning and Installation (553-3021-210) or Chapter 18 of the Option 11C Mini Planning and Installation (553-3021- 209).

Numbering plan

The pre-programmed numbering plan automatically assigns default extension numbers to the following (this list may not be representative of all countries):

Local extension numbers

Attendant extension

Night number

ACD queues

Meridian Mail extensions

Call park extensions

553-3011-100 Standard 14.00 January 2002

Memory, Storage and CPU capacity Page 21 of 544

If the default numbering plan does not suit this system’s needs, you can change it using the procedures Chapter 22 of the Option 11C Planning and Installation (553-3021-210) or Appendix A of the Option 11C Mini Planning and Installation (553-3021-209).

SDI ports

There are three pre-programmed SDI ports on Option 11C and 11C Mini systems. The NTDK20 SSC or NTDK97 MSC provides TTY ports 0, 1, and 2. All three SDI interfaces can be used as either modem or maintenance ports for TTY terminals.

Tone services

The SSC/MSC provides 30 channels of tone and cadence transmission to the system.

The SSC/MSC also provides tone detection. Units 0-7 can be configured to support DTR/XTD. Units 8-15 can also be configured to support DTR/XTD

Optionally, units 8-11 can be configured to support other tone detection functions in lieu of DTR/XTD on units 8-15. These other tone functions include one of MFC/MFE/MFK5/MFK6/MFR.

LD 56 contains default tables used for tone and cadence generation.

Software Installation program and pre-programmed data

The Software Installation program is automatically invoked when the new Option 11C or Option 11C Mini is started up (SYSLOAD). After successfully responding to various prompts in the program, you are given the option of selecting a database to be loaded.

Detailed information about the Software Installation program can be found in the Option 11C Planning and Installation (553-3021-210) or the Option 11C Mini Planning and Installation (553-3021-209) used for first-time installations; or the Option 11C and 11C Mini Upgrade Procedures (553- 3021-250) used for upgrades from an Option 11 or 11E to an Option 11C system.

Removing pre-programmed data

Pre-programmed data cannot be removed from the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini system once it is loaded into the system. However, pre-programmed data can be bypassed during first-time system installations.

During start-up, the Software Installation Program is automatically invoked. The Option 11C and 11C Mini then loads system data from the Software Daughterboard, or MSC for the Option 11C Mini, and prompts the user for a variety of information, including the time and date, type of installation, feature set required, and type of database. At this point, if the user selects any response other than “Default database,” pre-programmed data will not be loaded on the system

Note: The pre-programmed data on the Option 11C and 11C Mini system can provide an effective starting point for programming telephone and trunk information. Before bypassing the option of loading pre-programmed data, take the time to determine whether the default data can be used at this site.

Customer Configuration Backup and Restore

The Customer Configuration Backup and Restore (CCBR) feature provides the ability to store the configuration database of the Option 11C on an external hard-drive of an IBM-type PC or Macintosh-type computer.

The CCBR feature can be invoked on-site with the use of a modem eliminator, or remotely over a modem connection.

Operations performed

The CCBR feature performs two different functions of safeguarding customer programmed data. The first involves storing the configuration database in the unlikely event of an system failure - such as a continuous SYSLOAD or INI - or data corruption. To correct this problem, the backup copy of the configuration database can be restored to the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini.

Option 11C and 11C Mini Technical Reference Guide

Page 24 of 544 Memory, Storage and CPU capacity

The second function of the CCBR feature has to do with the role it plays in upgrading software from an Option 11 or 11E to an Option 11C system. To illustrate, if the CCBR feature is invoked in LD 43 of an Option 11 or 11E, its configuration data can be backed up on a hard-drive of an external computer. When the new Option 11C hardware is fully installed, and the PCMCIA card is inserted in the System Core card, the backup copy of the configuration data - stored on the computer - can be transferred back to the upgraded Option 11C system as part of the software upgrade process. Immediately upon download, the Option 11 or 11E database files will be automatically converted to the Option 11C format.

Note: Whenever the CCBR feature is used, configuration data is always backed up to the primary flash drive. Prior to invoking the CCBR command, a data dump should be performed to ensure the primary database is current.

File transfer time

Depending on the number of records in the configuration data base, it can take over 30 minutes to backup or restore data at a rate of 1200 bps. CCBR access time can be significantly decreased using a 19200 baud modem: 19200 baud is the maximum data transfer rate supported by the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini.

Equipment requirements

Communications software

Communications software compatible with XModem CRC protocol is required to operate the CCBR feature. This requirement applies to on-site and remote access.

On-site access

On-site access to the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini system can be made by directly connecting a computer to SDI port 0, 1, or 2.

Note: You will need to connect a modem eliminator between the SDI cable and the computer cable for on-site computer access.

Memory, Storage and CPU capacity Page 25 of 544

Remote access

Remote access to the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini is established by connecting SDI port 0, 1, or 2 on the SSC/MSC to an analog line (Central Office line) through an on-site modem. This will allow the computer to dial directly into the Option 11C or Option 11C Mini from a remote location.

Detailed information about the CCBR feature can be found in the Option 11C Customer Controlled Backup and Restore (CCBR) (553-3011-330).
