;

Purpose

Clears a previously set alarm that was written to the alarm history file. These alarms are generally set for test purposes, for example, to test the alarm trapping. This command sends an alarm trap clear to the SNMP agent. (For details about setting alarms, see the "set-alm—Set Alarm" section.)

Format

clr-alm:taskname:msgnumber="nnn"[,msgtext="message_text"]

Description

The value of taskname is any valid BAMS task name.

The value of msgnumber can be any three-digit number. This number corresponds to the number of the message to be cleared. For ACC227 and POL402 alarms, you need to specify the full msgtext value to clear the alarm, because the message text for these alarms can vary. For ACC227, the msgtext includes the timestamp.

Example

mml:3>clr-alm:MSC:msgnumber="030"

mml:3>clr-alm:POL:msgnumber="402",msgtext="Cannot connect to unit bams0-a"

B COMPLD

"SIGPATH"

;

Purpose

Copies a table or tables from one node to the current node.

Format

Description

The value of tagID is any valid tag ID.

The value of srcnode is a node identifier (1 through 8).

The value of nodename must be a valid UNIX filename because this name is used to create a directory link in the /data directory.

The value of srcver is one of the following:

•Active—Use this value to copy the table from the source node's active configuration.

•Default—Use this value to copy the table from the source node's default configuration. This could be used if the prov-sta command does not use the srcver=default setting. In this case, use prov-cpy to copy the default table for one table only.

•New—Use this value to empty the table. This could be used if the prov-sta command does not use srcver=new. In this case, use prov-cpy to copy an empty table into the current session.

The value of dirname specifies that the table is copied from the source node's MML directory. This is the same as the prov-sta command's dstver argument.

Example

mml:sys>set-node:2:

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-26 18:19:04

B COMPLD

"SIGPATH"

;

Purpose

Implements changes specified during an active provisioning session.

Format

prov-dply::[srcver=dirname]

Description

The value of dirname is the directory name; if you are in a provisioning session, you can deploy another session from within the active directory. prov-dply:: copies the changes in the current provisioning session to the active session (directory). If a directory name is specified with the prov-dply command, the files in that directory are copied to the active session.

Note When you execute a prov-dply command in a redundant BAMS configuration, all the tables at the same level (node or system) are synchronized with the remote unit (i.e., they are transferred to that unit). This is the same behavior as when you execute the prov-sync command. The following message indicates that an MML table has been successfully transferred to the remote BAMS unit:

/* Transferring file <filename> ... */

If an SXF error message is displayed instead, the MML tables may not be synchronized if this table was edited in this session. For more information, refer to the specific message in the "Send File Transfer Task Messages" section.

Example

mml:2>prov-dply::srcver=test

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-08 11:29:15

B COMPLD

;

Purpose

Modifies one or more provisioning records in the table specified by the tag ID.

Format

prov-ed:tagID:field name1=["]value1["], ... field name>=["]valueN["][range1-range2]

Description

The value of tagID is any valid tag ID.

The value of field name1 is a first field name.

The value of value1 is a first value.

The value of fieldnameN is an Nth field name.

The value of valueN is an Nth value.

The value of range1 is a first value of a desired field range.

The value of range2 is a second value of a desired field range.

Note Execute the prov-rtrv command first, to see the existing configuration.

Example

mml:2>prov-ed:sigpath:sigpath=0x50-0x61,trunkgrp=0-17

"SIGPATH"

;

Purpose

Exports a list of parameters for a specific table or all tables. The parameters are the field names and values of the table or tables.

This command can be executed at the system or node level. When executed at the system level, the command generates a file that contains all of the commands to provision the system and all of the nodes. When executed at the node level, the command generates a file that contains all of the commands to provision the indicated node.

Format

prov-exp:[tagID|all]:dirname=mml subdirectory

Description

The value of tagID is any valid tag ID.

The value of dirname is the directory name that is created under the /opt/CiscoBAMS/files/mml directory. The all option exports all tag IDs.

"SIGPATH:sigpath=0x4f,trunkgrp=16

"SIGPATH:sigpath=0x50,trunkgrp=16

;

Purpose

Starts a provisioning session.

Format

prov-sta::srcver=dirname,dstver=dirname[,confirm]

Description

In order to modify the contents of BAMS tables, you must execute the prov-sta command to start a provisioning session.

You specify the source of the tables to be used in the provisioning session with the srcver parameter. The value of dirname is the name of the source or destination directory. Setting srcver=new sets the configuration tables to empty. Setting srcver=default sets the configuration tables to the default values. Setting srcver=active retrieves the currently provisioned tables.

The dstver parameter defines the name of the provisioning session. This parameter creates a separate directory containing the tables for the provisioning session.

Note You must specify the confirm command option if the destination directory (dstver) already exists.

Once you start a provisioning session by executing the prov-sta command, you can modify the BAMS tables by using the MML editing commands prov-add, prov-dlt, and prov-ed, in conjunction with tag IDs.

Once all edits have been made, you execute the prov-dply command to make the tables of the provisioning session the current active tables at either the BAMS system level or node level (defined by the set-node command). If you do not wish to deploy the edited tables, use the prov-stp command to quit the provisioning session.

Example

mml:sys>prov-sta::srcver=active,dstver=test,confirm

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-08 14:32:49

B COMPLD

;

Note When you execute the prov-sta command, it creates a working directory with the same name as the dstver parameter value. These directories are saved so that a user can retrieve tables from this directory at a later time. (In this case the user would execute prov-sta where the srcver is the name of a previously created dstver value.) Over time, these MML working directories can accumulate if many different values are used for the dstver parameter. A maintenance script, clean_mml.sh, should be executed periodically on the BAMS unit so that the MML working directories do not use up too much disk space. This script prompts you, at the system level and for each BAMS node, to delete an MML directory or not. The newest working directory of each node is automatically saved.

To run this script, log in as the BAMS user and execute the following:

$ clean_mml.sh

** clean_mml.sh will clean up the mml working directories. The latest

** directory for each node will automatically be saved.

** Examining mml directories in BAMS system level:

Remove directory /opt/CiscoBAMS/files/mml/bams_system ?(y/n) y

Newest directory /opt/CiscoBAMS/files/mml/bams_system_vers2 automatically saved.

** Examining mml directories in BAMS node 01:

/* Current session: ACTIVE */

/* Available Configurations: */

/* /opt/CiscoBAMS/files/s03/mml/bams_system, Mon Jul 12 11:45:48 2004

*/

;

Purpose

Displays the contents of a UNIX text file.

Format

rtrv-file::filename

Description

The value of filename is any existing filename. You need to specify the full UNIX filename that includes the directory path, unless the file exists in the current directory (/opt/CiscoBAMS/bin).

Example

mml:sys>rtrv-file::collect_defs

;

Purpose

Displays attributes (for example, polling status) of the network elements.

Note There is an 8-second interval between system start and POL task start. Within this interval, the status shows ACTIVE or STANDBY, even though the POL task has not started. Once the POL task starts, the polling status is accurate.

Format

Purpose

Generates an alarm message. Use this command to set a test alarm that is written to the syslog. (For details about clearing alarms, see the "clr-alm—Clear Alarm" section.)

Format

set-alm:taskname:msgnumber=nnn,level=n

Description

The value of taskname is any valid BAMS task name.

The value of nnn is a three-character message number.

The value of n is a valid single-character threshold level (0, 1, or 2).

Note This command works only for alarms maintained in the alarmslist.CTL file in the /opt/CiscoBAMS/files directory.

Purpose

Sets the node number. Use this command to change from the system level to the node level, or to change from one node to another node.

Format

set-node:node#|nodename|sys:

Description

The value of node# is any integer between 1 and 8.

The value of nodename is any valid node name.

sys displays the system level.

Note When 1 is specified as the node number, the MML prompt changes from mml:sys> to mml:1>. Exit out of any provisioning sessions before changing the node number. The prompt displays the node name when it is defined. The prompt always displays the node number, except when system is specified.

Example

mml:sys>set-node:1:

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-08 14:45:27

mml:1:node01>

Purpose

Sets the node name for a node.

Format

set-nodename:node#:name=nodename

Description

The value of node# is any integer between 1 and 8.

The value of nodename must be a valid UNIX filename, because this name is used to create a directory link in the data directory. The maximum length of nodename is 40 characters.

This command must be executed within an MML editing session at the node level.

Note You can use the set-nodename command to modify any existing node names. You cannot use the command to modify the system name.

Example

mml:sys>set-nodename:1:name="boston"

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-08 14:45:27

mml:1>

Purpose

Starts the system application.

Format

sta-softw

Description

No tag IDs are required, just the command verb.

Note An alternative way to start the software is to use the UNIX start_system command, which is found in the /opt/CiscoBAMS/bin directory.

Example

mml:sys>sta-softw

Billing and Measurements Server - BAMS-00 2004-09-08 14:14:41

B COMPLD

;

Purpose

Stops the system application.

Format

stp-softw::confirm

Description

No tag IDs are required, just the command verb.

Note You can execute this command only at the system level.

Note An alternative way to stop the software is to use the UNIX stop_system command, which is found in the /opt/CiscoBAMS/bin directory.

Terminating BAMS

waiting for MGR to shut down...

;

Purpose

Forces a manual rotation of the BAMS unit designated to poll the VSC. (You can execute this command only on the active polling unit.)

Format

sw-ovr

Description

You can use the sw-ovr command to rotate polling from the active BAMS unit to the standby unit in the event of a switch failover. The command is executed immediately on the local BAMS unit. On the remote BAMS unit, the rotation takes effect at the next poll attempt. Poll attempts are typically set at 5-minute intervals.

No tag IDs are required, just the command verb.

Note Successful execution of this command causes a POL105 message to be written to the syslog (see "Troubleshooting Cisco BAMS").

Example

mml:sys>sw-ovr
