Chapter 4 Configuring the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Software
Configuring the Execution Environment
Tip If Host X does not take over call processing after switchover, restart the software on Host Y to take over
the calls. Check the parameters you changed on Host X and make sure you have the correct values.
Configuring Basic System Information
Note For a complete list of the parameters found in the XECfgParm.dat file and how they are used by the Cisco
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch, see Appendix A, “XECfgParm.dat File Parameters.”
To configure basic system information required for your system to function, modify the following
parameters in the first section of the XECfgParm.dat file:
Parameter Modification
*.desiredPlatformState To determine the desired platform state at initialization, enter one of
the following values:
• master—If you have two (active and standby)
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch hosts, and you are editing the file
on the active host
• slave—If you have two (active and standby)
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch hosts, and you are editing the file
on the standby host
• standalone—If you have a simplex system
Note The value used is site specific. For example, use the values
master and slave if you have two (active and standby)
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch hosts. Enter standalone if you
have a single-host system.
*.numberOfThreads Prior to Release 9.4(1), the number of threads generated by
multithreaded processes such as the engine and the log master, is
specified by entering one of the following values:
• 0—Single CPU (default)
• 1—Two CPUs
• 2—Four CPUs
Note If you have a multi-CPU system, the
engine.SysGeneratedCode parameter must be left as
true (the default).
For Release 9.4(1) and up, this parameter is set automatically when
you specify a Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch type in the
engine.SysVirtualSwitch parameter. Any attempt to modify this
parameter is overwritten.
