Ericsson LBI-39224 manual

LBI-39224

Manager user is able to select unit, group, and site data from the System Manager; or unit, group, and site data, along with conventional and console unit ID databases from the CEC/IMC Manager hard disk, and broadcast (transfer) this data to all interface modules. If the data is transferred from the System Manager it is also stored on the CEC/IMC Manager hard disk.

NOTE

If the System Manager operates with version 4.0 (or earlier) software, console aliases and LIDs can be changed at the CEC/IMC Manager. However, it is recommended that a console LID stored at the CEC/IMC Manager be given the same alias as the corresponding console LID at the System Manager; in other words, changing console aliases at the CEC/IMC Manager is not recommended if a System Manager exists.

If the network's System Manager operates with version 5.0 (or later) software, a console alias cannot be changed at the CEC/IMC Manager. Therefore, CEC/IMC Manager console aliases will always match System Manager console aliases.

NOTE

Conventional Channel aliases and LIDs are assigned to a channel number at the CEC/IMC Manager, but it is recommended that these entries match valid conventional channel aliases and LIDs defined at the System Manager. This will ease conventional channel identification during patch operations. A console communicates with a conventional channel by its channel number—not its LID number.

Database transfers (uploads/downloads) are accomplished using the System Mgr/Network Mgr Entity Database dialog box. From the CEC/IMC Manager menu bar select Configure System /

Systems Options / File Transfer to display the System Mgr/Network Mgr Entity Database dialog box, Figure 10.
