This chapter describes the procedures to reinstall Cisco Broadband Access Center (BAC). Reinstallation in BAC is enabled only for the purpose of restoring an installation that might have been corrupted.
This release does not support reinstalling the Regional Distribution Unit (RDU) and the Device Provisioning Engine (DPE) that are already installed on your system. If you must carry out a reinstallation, first uninstall both components, and then reinstall them.
This chapter describes:
To reinstall BAC from the CLI:
Step 1 Back up your database by running the BPR_HOME/rdu/bin/backupDb.sh command, where BPR_HOME is the home directory. The default directory is /opt/CSCObac.
To use this command, you must provide the target directory in which to place the backup files. This directory should be on a disk or partition that has available disk space equivalent to 120% of the current database file size. For detailed information, refer to the Cisco Broadband Access Center Administrator's Guide, Release 3.5.
Step 2 Uninstall BAC from your system (see the Uninstalling from the CLI).
Step 3 Then, carry out the installation procedure as described in the Installing BAC.
Step 4 After you have installed BAC 3.5 on your system, restore the database from the backup, and copy the recovered database to the database location that the RDU uses. For detailed information, refer to the Cisco Broadband Access Center Administrator's Guide, Release 3.5.
