How do I lock the OLC state?

Purpose

You can lock the OLC state of a child object that is in maintenance mode to prevent the OLC state from changing in the event that the parent object OLC state changes to In Service. Locking the OLC state of an object disables any associated scheduled OLC state change. Also, when the OLC state of an object is locked, you cannot configure the Revert OLC State parameter of the object.

Note: You can lock the OLC state of multiple objects at once.

Steps
 
1 

Choose Administration→OLC from the NFM-P main menu. The OLC form opens.

2 

Choose a service or network object type from the drop-down menu and click Search. A list of objects is displayed.

3 

Select one or more entries and click Properties. The object or multi-instance properties form opens.

4 

Configure the Lock OLC State parameter.

Note: You can lock the OLC state only when the Current OLC State parameter is set to Maintenance.

Note: If all selected objects have an OLC state of Maintenance and one or more objects is locked in maintenance mode, the Lock OLC State parameter is selected and dimmed, but is configurable.

5 

Save the changes and close the OLC form.
