1 Introduction

1.1 Before You Start

1.1.1 Access RightsYou must have the administrator profile named axadmin_special_profileassigned to you for access to the OMC-R.

1.1.2 Using the OSMOn the OSM, a number of options are available.These are represented by a click button and the option name.

If the click button is orange and its associated feature name is underlinedyou can click on either the button or the name. If you click on the button, youare offered more choices than if you click on the name (for example, you areasked to decide which workstation you want information for).If the button is gray, the name is underlined and you must click on thename to proceed.

If the name is not underlined, the button is orange and you must clickon the button to proceed.

You can click on [ Back ] , [ Forward ] or [ Exit ] at the top of each screen.Click on [ Back ] to go to whichever screen you were looking at last.Click on [ Forward ] after you have used the [Back] button. It takes you towhere you started from, moving forward a screen at a time.

Click on [ Exit ] to close the OSM.

Note: For a distributed A1353-RA system (that is, where more than one workstationcan be used as the main workstation), any change to the system made by anAdministrator applies to all stations.

1.2 Maintaining the SystemRoutine maintenance helps prevent or reduce the number of system failures.During normal operation sufficient resources are available to the OMC-R,particularly those of:

Disk space

System resources.

1.2.1 Disk SpaceAlthough sufficient resources are available when the application is initiallystarted, normal operation of the OMC-R gradually uses up the available diskspace. It is therefore necessary to perform some system maintenance regularlyto preserve sufficient disk space for correct operation (see Table 1 ).

18 / 222 3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13

1 Introduction

1.2.2 System ResourcesEach action requested by an operator results in the dynamic creation of a UNIXprocess. The process is automatically killed when the action ends. However, ifthe action cannot be executed or ends abnormally, the processes are not killed.In this case the system resources used by those processes are not release.The decrease in available resources reduces the processing capacity of theOMC-R. This can cause other problems which in crease the number ofunrealized processes, and so on.

System can hang, crash or be slow to respond. If system resources are notreleased or a process continues to grow, then eventually all system resourcesare used up. Perform the preventive maintenance tasks listed in Table 1 atthe appropriate time.

2 Backup and Restore of OMC-R


This section describes how to perform full and incremental backups, as wellas a system restore.

3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13 23 / 222


2.1 IntroductionRegular backups ensure that data loss is minimized in the case of hardware orsoftware failure such as a disk crash. Backing up allows a restore of the OMC-R.When an OMC-R is installed, a timestamp is made. Full backups back up allthe files more recent than this timestamp. Incremental Backups back up all thefiles more recent than the full backup, see the following figure.

CD 1

CD 2 T1 /etc/TIMESTAMP_INSTALL

CD 3

OptionalSoftware

CD DOC

Full T2 Relevant files younger than T1Backup

Incremental T3 Relevant files younger than T2Backup 1.1

Incremental T4 Relevant files younger than T2Backup 1.2

System Restore

Full T6 All restored files get the actual date/time.Restore 1.0 This allows Backup 2.0 to know to back them up.

Incremental T7 All restored files get the actual date/timeRestore 1.2 This allows Backup 2.0 to know to back them up.

Full T8 Relevant files younger than T5 are backed upBackup 2.0

Incremental T9 Relevant files younger than T8 are backed upBackup 2.1

2.1.1 Types of BackupThe following table describes the types of backups and the frequency in whichthey must be performed.

Type Description Recommended Frequency

Full Backup Saves all files. After installation, upgrade, massivenetwork change, or when Incrementalbackup takes just as long as a Fullbackup.

Incremental Backup Saves files that have been modified sincethe last full backup.

Depends on system activity. Dailyif there are many network changes.Weekly or monthly if little or nonetwork change.

Table 2: Types of Backup

2.1.1.1 In Case of FailureIf the backup fails to complete, the script returns the disks and system to aconsistent state. Check for error messages. Solve the problem and retrythe backup.

2.1.1.2 What is Backed Up/Restored ?Only the Master and Agent hosts are backed up and restored.

2.1.1.3 OSMBackups are performed in OSM. Scheduled full/incremental backups are addedto the crontab of axadmin from OSM.

3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13 25 / 222


2.1.2 Type and Rotation of TapesEach backup, full or incremental, uses one tape. Use 160 meter extra-longtapes. Never put more than one backup on a tape. As an absolute minimum,two sets of tapes are recommended in case of trouble with one of the sets. Forsecurity reasons, three sets of tapes would increase security significantly.For example, having two sets of tapes allows rotation of tapes (see thefollowing figure). The tapes for Full Backup 1 can be reused for Full Backup3. Tapes used for Incremental Backup 1.1 can be reused for IncrementalBackup 1.3 and so on.

2.1.3.1 Full BackupRegardless of hardware, the Full Backup process works in the same way.The backup script performs the following:1. The MPM application is stopped and the Database access is suspended, in

order to keep all the OMC-R data consistent. UNIX continues to operate.2. Mirrored disks are detached. For Veritas Filesystems, a "snapshot" is

taken of the file systems.3. The database is released and MPM is restarted. The OMC-R is operational.4. The OMC-R restarts. In a mirrored disk system, the OMC-R only runs on one

disk set during the backup time, while the other detached set is backed up.5. The OMC-R data is loaded onto tape.6. The mirror disks are re-attached and the disks that were used for the backup

are updated with the changes that occurred on the active disk during thebackup. The snapshots are destroyed.

7. The backup completes.

2.1.3.2 Incremental BackupAn incremental backup procedure is similar to a full backup.

3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13 27 / 222


2.2 Perform a Full or Incremental BackupBefore you backup, you must have:

Administrator access to the A1353-RA

Access to the tape drive(s) of Master and AgentAn unused tape for every server that requires backup (see Type andRotation of Tapes (Section 2.1.2) ).

Note: It is necessary to have a tape for each machine in an Xlarge configurationwhere there is a Master-Agent relationship.

The following prerequisites apply:Before you backup, verify that the tapes on which the backup is performed,function correctly:

mt -f sta

where is the tape device on which the backup was made (by default/dev/rmt/0cn ).To check the state of the metadevices, from a console type the command:

metastat

Wait for the end of the verification of each disk before continuing. Replaceany disks whose state is not Okay .

28 / 222 3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13


2.2.1 Perform a Full Backup from OSMNote: There is an outage of 2 minutes during the backup.

When inserting a tape, be sure that it is positioned at the beginning (it isrewinded).If the data of the Master can not be stored on one tape, a set of tapes must beused. When the tape is full, a window will ask for the next tape.

Procedure To perform a full backup from OSM:1. Log in as an administrator.2. Put a new tape(s) into the tape drive(s) of the Master and each Agent

(in case of Xlarge configuration).3. From the OSM Administration Facilities Main Menu, select Administration

-> Backup/Restore -> Backup now .4. Enter the device path in the Device field or keep the default device path

(/dev/rmt/0cn ) that is proposed. In case of XLarge configuration the samedevice path is used on all the machines (Master and each Agent).

5. Click on [ Apply ] to start the backup.If the tape is full (on Master), a pop-up window is displayed with themessage: The tape is full. Please insert next tape and justafter press OK button.

Remove the tape from the drive. Insert a new tape and click on [ OK ]button from the pop-up window.

6. The system carries out the backup steps and sends an e-mail to the userwho started the backup when the backup is complete.If the sent message contains the text:

Backup completedthe backup is complete. If the message contains the text:

Backup completed: warningthe backup is incomplete. Check the resulting UNIX logs in:/alcatel/var/maintenance/log/to diagnose the problem. As well as being stored on the system, this log isalso saved on the tape.If the message contains the text:

FailureThe backup failed. Check the resulting UNIX logs in/alcatel/var/maintenance/log/to diagnose the problem. As well as being stored on the system, this log isalso saved on the tape.

7. After the backup is complete, store the tape in a safe place so it is availablefor the restore in case of a system crash.

3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13 29 / 222


2.2.2 Schedule a Full Backup from OSMNote: There is an outage of 2 minutes during the backup.

If the data of the Master can not be stored on one tape, a set of tapes must beused. When the tape is full, a window will ask for the next tape.

Procedure To schedule a full backup:1. Log in as an administrator.2. Put a new tape(s) into the tape drive(s) of the Master and each Agent


-> Backup/Restore -> Schedule Backup .4. Enter the device path in the Device field or keep the default device path


5. Enter the time the backup is to be performed in the Hour field.6. Enter the day the backup is to be performed in the Day field.7. Enter the month the backup is to be performed in the Month field.

The system carries out the backup at the defined time and sends an e-mailto the user who started the backup when the backup is complete.

8. Click on [ OK ] to accept the scheduling.9. The backup will start at the given time.

If the tape is full, a pop-up window is displayed with the message: Thetape is full. Please insert next tape and just after pressOK button.

Remove the tape from the drive. Insert a new tape and click on [ OK ]button from the pop-up window.

10. Store the tape in a safe place so it is available for the restore in case of asystem crash.

2.2.3 Perform an Incremental Backup from OSMProcedure To perform an incremental backup from OSM:

1. Log in as an administrator.2. Put a new tape(s) into the tape drive(s) of the Master and each Agent


-> Backup/Restore -> Incremental Backup now .4. Enter the device path in the Device field or keep the default device path


5. Click on [ Apply ] .The system carries out the backup steps.


30 / 222 3BK 20903 AAAA PCZZA Ed.13


2.2.4 Schedule an Incremental Backup from OSMProcedure To schedule an incremental backup from OSM:

1. Log in as an administrator.2. Put a new tape(s) into the tape drive(s).3. From the OSM Administration Facilities Main Menu, select Administration

-> Backup/Restore -> Schedule Incremental Backup .4. Enter the device path in the Device field or keep the default device path


5. Enter the time the backup is to be performed in the Hour field.6. Enter the date the backup is to be performed in the Day field.7. Enter the month the backup is to be performed in the Month field.8. Click on [ OK ] to accept the scheduling.

The system carries out the backup steps at the defined time and sends ane-mail to the user who started the backup when the backup is complete.


2.2.5 Verify the Amount of Data Stored on Tape after an OMC BackupThe amount of data stored on a tape after an OMC backup can be verifiedfrom Master .From OSM Administration Facilities:1. Log in as an administrator.2. Insert the tape (if not already inserted) in the tape drive of the Master .3. Select Administration -> Backup/Restore -> Get Tape Usage4. In the Device field, the path to the default tape drive is typed. If the tape

2.3 Perform a RestoreImportant Before you perform a restore, take note of the following:

B9 CD1 and CD3 must be availableRestores are always done off-line

Resynchronization of the system can be necessary to ensuresynchronization between the time of the last backup and the time of thesystem failure.This is not part of the restore procedure.

2.3.1 PrerequisitesBefore you restore, you must be in Multi User Mode . You must also have:

B9 A1353-RA CD1 and CD3 corresponding with the installed softwareversion.

The restore script: MF-improved_restore.sh (contained on CD3)The most recent full backup tape and the most recent correspondingincremental backup tapes.

You must restore the full backup tape(s) first and then the most recentincremental backup tape(s). Otherwise, if you install in the reverse order,nothing prevents the full backup information from overwriting the incrementalbackup, and you have an inconsistent file system.

System Administrator (root) access rights to the A1353 - RAAdministrator access rights to the A1353-RA

Note: In the case of an XLarge Configuration, it is necessary to perform the restoreprocedure on each individual machine (Master and Agent) to be restored.When inserting a tape, be sure that it is positioned at the beginning (it isrewinded).If the full backup was performed using a set of tapes (on the same machine),start with the first tape.

2.3.2 Restore Procedure

2.3.2.1 Perform RestoreTo perform a restore:1. In case of SF V490 with 3510FC Array, perform first Prepare SUN StorEdge

3510FC Array (Section 2.4) .2. Install B9 CD1 . Contact Alcatel personnel to do this.3. After B9 CD1 installation, the following menu is displayed:

1) Insert CD2 and continue with installation

2) Exit to shell in order to get/install the licenses

3) Resume system initialisation

Type [ 3 ] .4. Wait until the system comes up and log in as root user.5. If a StorEdge Array 3510 is attached to the machine, perform the following

steps:

Insert CD1, if not already inserted, and type:cd /cdrom/cdrom0/s0/.install_configcp -pr S77_3510.cd2.* /etc/rc2.d/chmod 0755 /etc/rc2.d/S77_3510.cd2.*

To save time, perform step (7) now.Check if the RAID initialization is done as root :# scclisccli> sh ld

Verify if the Status is Good and only after that reboot the machine:init 6

Wait until the system comes up and log in as root user.6. For E4500 systems only , you must reboot the station, if it is not

automatically done:init 6

Log in as root user.7. Insert B9 CD3 and copy the restore scripts:

cd /var/tmpcp /cdrom/cdrom0/MF-improved_restore_OMC.sh .cp /cdrom/cdrom0/MF-improved_restore_OMC.pl .cp /cdrom/cdrom0/x_message_restore .cp /cdrom/cdrom0/INDSplmod_*.gz .gzip -cd INDSplmod_*.gz | cpio -icdumDpkgadd -d .

Install the package INDSplmod_ .

8. Search the corresponding device for the root and usr partition:df /usr / | awk {print $1 " " $2}/usr (/dev/md/dsk/di/ (/dev/md/dsk/dk

where di is the /usr corresponding device and dk is the root (/ )corresponding device.Check the usr and root mirrors status:

# metastat di dk | grep -i syncWait for the end of the root and usr mirrors resynchronization beforecontinuing. In case of disks failure, replace any disks whose state is not ok.

9. To start the restore, load the first tape of the full backup and enter thefollowing command:

/var/tmp/MF-improved_restore_OMC.pl -dev:-skipcheck

Where is the tape device on which the backup was made (bydefault /dev/rmt/0cn ).

10. If a set of tapes was used for the backup (on Master), all the tapes mustbe restored.When the restore of a tape is finished, a pop-up window is displayed:This tape is restored. Please insert next tape and push ENTERin the restore window. Just after push OK button. Performthe following:

Push the eject (unload) button of the tape drive and replace the tape.Insert the next tape, open a new terminal and type:

mt -f staCheck that the tape was loaded.

In the terminal window where the restore script was started press[ ENTER ] .In the pop-up window push the [ OK ] button.

11. The system will reboot when the restore is finished.12. Search the corresponding device for the root and usr partition:

df /usr / | awk {print $1 " " $2}/usr (/dev/md/dsk/di/ (/dev/md/dsk/dk

where di is the /usr corresponding device and dk is the root (/ )corresponding device.Check the usr and root mirrors status:

# metastat di dk | grep -i syncWait for the end of the root and usr mirrors resynchronization beforecontinuing.

13. Load the tape of the last incremental backup. If you do not have anincremental backup, go to Step (16) .

14. Enter the following command as root to restore the incremental backup:

/alcatel/omc3/backup/script/MF-improved_restore_OMC.sh-dev:

Where is the tape device on which the backup was made (bydefault /dev/rmt/0cn ).

15. The system will reboot when the restore is finished.The system is fully restored.

16. From a console, log in as root user.17. Delete the UNIX lock files in the following directory:

cd /alcatel/var/share/ntermrm .omc3_session_[hostname]*

18. Reboot each HMI, after all backup data is restored:init 6

2.3.2.2 Restart the OMC-RWhen the restore is finished (Master and each Agent in case of Xlarge),restart the OMC-R:1. Log in as axadmin on the Master Host.2. Start the OMC-R process by entering the following command from a

Terminal window:sudo /alcatel/omc3/osm/script/MF-start

If the system does not start, contact Alcatel support.3. Once the system is restarted, resynchronize all workstations. From the

A1353-RA Icon Box, select OSM Administration Facilities Main Menu-> Configuration -> Workstation Management -> ResynchronizeWorkstation .This displays a dialog box.

4. Select all the displayed check boxes and click on [ Apply ] .This resynchronizes all workstations.

5. Perform the task Discover BSS on each BSC (using BSSUSM).6. From the RNUSM, check adjacency inconsistencies:

General -> Query Ajacencies InconsistenciesIf the check result is not OK, contact Alcatel support.

3 Access Rights Management


Access rights management covers:

Password Policy

User Management

OAD Management.

Operator/Terminal Profile Management

FAD Management

FTP Users

3.1 IntroductionThe access rights management service is provided to allow the managementof UNIX users. It provides graphical interfaces which encapsulate the basicUNIX commands relative to user management. New users can be added, userprofiles can be modified and users can be deleted. All users are added tothe OMC-R group.User accounts should only be modified from OSM. Otherwise, if you change itfrom UNIX you create an inconsistency between OSM and UNIX.It is possible to associate an object/group of objects to a FAD/ApplicationFunction(s) inside a profile. For examples a user may have administration rightson some objects and supervision rights only, on other objects.

3.2 Password PolicyThe Password Policy is a set of rules used for checking the users passwords.

3.2.1 Default Password Rules

The administrator has to reset the user password when the user passwordis locked.

If a user password expires, the message is "login incorrect" (in CDE). Thesame message is displayed in the CDE window, regardless of whether theentered password is incorrect, or the password for that user is expired.

The administrator can have a global view of the user passwords - lockedor unlocked, by using the /alcatel/omc3/bin/unlockaccount script(used as root user).

3.2.1.1 CompositionPassword composition rules are customizable. The following table showsthe default password composition:

Parameter Default Value Description

MIN_LENGTH (*) 6 Minimum password lengthMAX_LENGTH 16 Maximum password length

NB_LETTERS 1 Minimum number of letters in user password

NB_NUMBERS 1 Minimum number of digits in user password

NB_CAPITALS 1 Minimum number of uppercase characters in userpassword

NB_SPECIAL_CHARS 1 Minimum number of special characters (see below) inuser password

MAX_DAYS (*) 90 Number of days before password expiresWARNING_DAYS (*) 8 Number of days warning before password expires
