To enable WS-NOC Release 24.6 or later compatibility with an NSP system

Purpose

Perform this procedure to enable NSP compatibility with a Release 24.6 or later WS-NOC system.

NSP release compatibility varies by system type; see the NSP compatibility matrix in the NSP Release Notice for the supported release combinations and any release-specific patches that the WS-NOC may require.

Note: The WS-NOC supports only IPv4, so can be integrated only with an NSP system that uses IPv4 in the client and internal networks.

Note: You must perform the steps on each WS-NOC server in a redundant WS-NOC system.

Note: A leading # symbol in a command represents the root user prompt, and is not to be included in the command.

Steps
 
1 

Log in as the root user to the mnc-fm container on the WS-NOC.

2 

Enter the following:

# docker exec -it mnc-fm bash ↵

A command shell opens in the mnc-fm container.

3 

Open the following file using a plain-text editor such as vi:

/nfmt/instance/nfmt-adapters/config/NfmtAdapter.properties

4 

Edit the following lines to read as shown below:

EQUIPMENT_ENABLED=true

SERVICE_ENABLED=true

FMADAPTER_VERSION=24.8.0-rel

EQUIPMENTADAPTER_VERSION=24.8.0-rel

SERVICEADAPTER_VERSION=24.8.0-rel

5 

Save and close the file.

6 

Enter the following:

# mkdir -p /nfmt/config/tempcustom/nfmt/instance/nfmt-adapters/config ↵

7 

Enter the following:

# cp /nfmt/instance/nfmt-adapters/config/NfmtAdapter.properties /nfmt/config/tempcustom/nfmt/instance/nfmt-adapters/config/ ↵

8 

Enter the following:

# pkill -f NSP-Adapters ↵

The NSP-Adapters process restarts.

9 

If the NSP uses FQDNs to communicate, add each NSP FQDN to the WS-NOC configuration.

  1. Open the following file using a plain-text editor such as vi:

    /install_dir/config/bench/fqdn.cfg file

  2. Edit the following lines to read as shown below:

    nsp-a;FQDN_a;address_a

    nsp-b;FQDN_b;address_b

    where

    FQDN_a is the primary NSP cluster FQDN

    FQDN_b is the standby NSP cluster FQDN

    address_a is the IPv4 address of the primary NSP cluster

    address_b is the IPv4 address of the standby NSP cluster

10 

Save and close the file.

11 

Enter the following to close the command shell:

# exit .↵

12 

Log out of the mnc-fm container.
