Managing External Resources

Revised: February 18, 2010, OL-16000-07

Introduction

This chapter tells you how to manage external resources provisioned on the BTS using administrative (ADM) commands. External resources have two service states:

Administrative—State the BTS user provisions for the resource link

Operational—Physical condition of the resource link or the resource) The two types of service states are independent of each other, for example:

Auser places an MGW link in-service; its administrative state is ADMIN_INS. But that link between the BTS and MGW is lost. The MGW link’s operational state is MGW_STATUS_DOWN. A query of the MGW returns both the administrative state and operational state.

Viewing BTS System-Wide Status

BTSSTAT runs on any BTS host. Any valid UNIX user can enter btsstat from a UNIX shell to initiate it. This command returns the following for all BTS components:

Component id

Side

Host name

Version

Replication status

Redundancy status

To run BTSSTAT from a non-BTS host, the configuration file needs the information in following table. BTSSTAT ignores all other lines in the file.
