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.
