Workflow: NFM-P database management

Stages

Note: It is strongly recommended that you verify the checksum of each file that you download from the NSP download page on the Nokia Support portal. You can compare the SHA-256 checksum value in the Packages.sha256sum on the download page to the output of the RHEL sha256sum command. See the RHEL sha256sum man page for information.

Database properties and status
 
1 

Display the main database properties; see How do I view the main database properties? .


Database operation and security
 
2 

As a security precaution, configure the number of failed Oracle database user login attempts that the NFM-P allows before a user is locked out; see How do I configure the Oracle database user lockout threshold? .


3 

As required, unlock the Oracle database user account after multiple login failures; see How do I unlock the Oracle database user account? .


4 

Configure how the NFM-P responds to Oracle database errors; see How do I configure Oracle database error monitoring? .


5 

Configure size constraint policies to regulate the number of records retained in the main database; see How do I configure a size constraint policy? .


6 

Configure ageout constraint policies to define a configurable ageout time for a specific object type in the main database; see How do I configure an ageout constraint policy? .


7 

Manage main database disk usage by configuring policies to manage the file size and number of archive log and core dump files; see How do I create a database file policy to manage database log or core dump files? .


8 

Configure the statistics data retention period for the main database; see How do I configure the statistics data retention period for the main database? .


Backup, restore, and maintenance
 
9 

Perform an immediate full or partial main database backup; see How do I back up the main database from the client GUI? or How do I back up the main database from a CLI? .


10 

Schedule a regular main database backup; see How do I schedule main database backups? .


11 

Restore the main database in a standalone system; see How do I restore a standalone main database?.


12 

Restore the main database in a redundant system; see How do I restore the primary main database in a redundant system?.


13 

As required, delete the inactive residential subscriber instances from the main database; see How do I delete the inactive residential subscriber instances?.


14 

Test the main database restore function to ensure that main database backups are viable in the event of a failure; see How do I test an NFM-P main database restore? .


15 

Export a main database to a file set; see How do I export an NFM-P main database?.


16 

Import a main database from a file set; see How do I import an NFM-P main database?.


17 

Verify the synchronization of NE and main database information; see How do I check the main database performance? .


Redundancy functions
 
18 

Perform a main database switchover; see How do I configure main database switchover behavior? , How do I perform a main database switchover using the NFM-P client GUI? , or How do I perform a main database switchover using a CLI script? .


19 

Enable or disable automatic database realignment on a main server; see How do I enable or disable automatic database realignment?.


20 

Re-establish redundancy after a database activity switch or similar maintenance activity; see How do I reinstantiate the main database from the client GUI? and How do I reinstantiate the main database from a CLI?.
