This appendix describes the following procedures:
 
 
Switching CDRs from HDD to GSS
This section describes how to switch CDRs from HDD to GSS with:
 
 
LRSN Enabled
To switch CDRs from HDD to GSS with LRSN enabled:
Important: This configuration change must be undertaken in a maintenance window, when the load is minimum.
Step 1
 
If configuring to the default GTPP group:
configure
  gtpp single-source centralized-lrsn-creation
  context <billing>
     gtpp charging-agent address <address>
     gtpp storage-server <address> port <port>
     gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
configure
  gtpp single-source centralized-lrsn-creation
  context <billing>
     gtpp group <gtpp_group>
        gtpp charging-agent address <address>
        gtpp storage-server <address> port <port>
        gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
        end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Step 2
 
If configuring to the default GTPP group:
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp storage-server mode remote
     gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp group <gtpp_group>
        gtpp storage-server mode remote
        gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
        end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Important: Ensure that the file format, GTPP dictionary and LRSN Enabled are set properly on GSS in the gss.cfg file. Also, the correct version of GSS has to be installed and started on the Solaris machine.
Step 3
On the HDD side, remaining CDRs are immediately flushed to a CDR file. At this point, the transition is complete.
 
LRSN Disabled
To switch CDRs from HDD to GSS with LRSN disabled:
Important: This configuration change must be undertaken in a maintenance window, when the load is minimum.
Step 1
 
If configuring to the default GTPP group:
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp charging-agent address <address>
     gtpp storage-server <address> port <port>
     gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp group <gtpp_group>
        gtpp charging-agent address <address>
        gtpp storage-server <address> port <port>
        gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
        end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Step 2
 
If configuring to the default GTPP group:
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp storage-server mode remote
     gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
configure
  context <billing>
     gtpp group <gtpp_group>
        gtpp storage-server mode remote
        gtpp max-cdrs 255 wait-time 300
        end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Step 3
On the HDD side, remaining CDRS are immediately flushed to a CDR file. At this point, the transition is complete.
Important: Ensure that the file format, GTPP dictionary and LRSN Disabled are set properly on GSS in the gss.cfg file. Also, the correct version of GSS has to be installed and started on the Solaris machine.
 
Switching CDRs from GSS to HDD
This section describes how to switch CDRs from GSS to HDD with:
 
 
LRSN Enabled
To switch CDRs from GSS to HDD with LRSN enabled:
Important: This configuration change must be undertaken in a maintenance window, when the load is minimum.
Step 1
Start the changes from a known good state.
Step 2
 
If configuring to the default GTPP group:
configure
  gtpp single-source centralized-lrsn-creation
  context <billing>
     gtpp storage-server local file format <file_format_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation volume mb 40
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation cdr-count <max_CDR_per_file_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation time-interval <max_file_gen_period_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp dictionary <gtpp_dict_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server mode local
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Important: Note that gtpp storage-server mode local must be added at the end.
configure
  gtpp single-source centralized-lrsn-creation
  context <billing>
     gtpp storage-server local file format <file_format_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation volume mb 40
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation cdr-count <max_CDR_per_file_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server local file rotation time-interval <max_file_gen_period_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp dictionary <gtpp_dict_as_in_gss.cfg>
     gtpp storage-server mode local
     end
show configuration | grep gtpp
Important: Note that gtpp storage-server mode local must be added at the end.
