Use either of the following two methods to install the OMU software:

Install the OMU software through the network if you are not on site.

Install the OMU software through the CD driver of the GBAM if you are on

site.


23/60


Network Installation Copying version software to GBAM

Visit the http://support.huawei.comto obtain the OMU installation file and

save the file to the PC that is to be connected with the GBAM.

Double-click the Internet Explorericon and type the IP address (for

example, \\10.161.72.254) of the GBAM to connect the GBAM.

Double-click the BSC6000 folder.
http://support.huawei.com/http://support.huawei.com/


24/60


Network Installation

Copying version software to

GBAM

Type the user name and

password to open the

BSC6000 folder.

Copy the OMU installation file

(for example, OMU-9.1-

1.i586.rpm) saved on the PC to

the directory \BSC6000\install\

of the GBAM.


25/60


Network Installation

Enable the PuTTY software (terminal login software) on the PC.

In the Host Name (or IP address) text box, type the IP address (for

example, \\10.161.72.254) of the GBAM and then click Open. A remote login

window is displayed. Log in to the GBAM as a root user.



26/60



CD installation

Put the OMU installation CD into the CD driver of the GBAM.

Log in to the GBAM as a root user.

Run the cd /media/cdrom command in the interface of the

operating system Suse Linux Enterprise Server 9.0 to replace the current

directory with \media\cdrom.

Difference between network installation and CD installation

For the installation on the GBAM server, the current directory of network

installation is /BSC6000/install/; and the current directory of CD

installation is /media/cdrom.

In this document, the /BSC6000/install is the current directory. If you need

to install CDs on the site, run the cd /media/cdromcommand to replace

the current directory into /media/cdrom.

The subsequent installations of network are the same as that of CD.


27/60



Step1: Run the cd /BSC6000/install/ command (CD installation command:

cd /media/cdrom) to modify the current directory.


28/60


Step2: Run therpm -ivh omu-9.1-1.i586.rpmcommand to install the OMU

software

Step3: The installation is complete. A prompt is displayed, as shown in the

following figure.

Step4: Run theomuctrl cfgcommand to perform network

configurations.

Step7: Type the default gateway of the external IP address (for example,

\\10.161.72.1)

Step8Check if the displayed IP address, IP netmask, and IP gateway are

correct.

If all the parameters are correct, type yes. Then theexternal settings

are active.

If the parameters are not correct, type no. Then modify the faulty

parameter into a correct one.

After the BSC6000 LMT is started, check the icon on the lower right side of

the system to confirm if the FTP Server is started. If there is no such icon,

check if the files of the FTP tool are damaged.

If the FTP Server cannot be started, the possible cause is that the port 21 is

seized. Check if the port 21 is seized.

Do not manually stop the FTP Server during a file transfer; otherwise, the

download will fail.

Upgrade Precautions


54/60


pg

Ensure that the upgraded BIOS matches with the new software.

The networking connection should match with the upgraded networking

configuration.

The upgraded subracks should perform DIP according to the new

configuration.

Check clock connection. Ensure the clock connection are matching with theconfiguration of upgraded clock.

Check E1 cables. Ensure that the A interface E1 cables, the Abis interface E1

cables, and the Ater interface E1 cables are consistent with the upgraded data

configurations.

Upgrade Precautions


55/60


pg

OMU should be accessed with only one M2000.

Do not start the OMU Core manually. If the OMU Core starts beyond the

limited time, the system may start the minimum configuration and may be

locked. As a result, you cannot configure manually. Only after the

bakcfgflag.txtfile is deleted, you can perform operations on the system.

Before initializations of boards are complete, do not perform configuration forboards; otherwise configuration data may be inconsistent with OMU after

boards start.

Unsuccessful Load of Host Software


56/60


If the LMT shows the unsuccessful load of the BSS board, check the

following items:

If a subrack cannot be loaded, check the DIP of the subrack.

If a board cannot be loaded, remove and insert the board.

Check the connection of network cable. If a remote subrack cannot be

loaded, check the connection of the Ater interface. Check if the file under the /BSC6000/bscswm/area1/software directory on

the GBAM service is complete.

Check if the data of the board and that of the Ater interface is configured

correctly.
