To update the software activation status for Wavence SA nodes

Purpose

When software activation is performed via an MCT (microwave craft terminal) on a managed Wavence SA node, NFM-P does not indicate whether the software activation was successful. Perform this procedure to update the software activation status by applying a forced activation to the node. This procedure causes the Wavence SA node to reboot.

CAUTION 

CAUTION

Service Disruption

Perform this procedure only in a maintenance window:

When you reboot a Wavence that is in service, it is service-affecting. Ensure that the reboot activity occurs during a maintenance window.
