OL-18083-01
Chapter 5 Migrating to Solaris 10 and Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch Software Release 9.8
Replacing Hard Disks on an Existing Solaris 10 Platform
# /etc/init.d/CiscoMGC stop
Step 4 Remove the platform from the current network environment and replace it with the old version
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch.
Step 5 Log in the old version Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch as root.
Step 6 Configure the required network parameters on PGW 4 to make PGW 4 a replacement of PGW 2.
Step 7 Start the old version Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software using the following command:
# /etc/init.d/CiscoMGC start
Step 8 Use the following commands to change the login to mgcusr on the old version platform and verify that
the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software started successfully.
# su - mgcusr
% mml
mml> rtrv-ne
mml> rtrv-softw:all
mml> rtrv-alms:
mml> rtrv-ne-health:all
Note When you view the alarms, you can find the alarm, “POM-01: 2008-07-27 21:15:09.910
CST,ALM=\''PEER LINK A FAILURE\'',SEV=MN”. The Cisco PGW 2200 raises this alarm
because no provisioning is synchronized between new version active
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch and old version one when the two Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches
are on different hardware platforms. You can ignore this alarm during the fallback. It disappears
after the fallback is complete.
Step 9 Log in the Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch as mgcusr and switch over from new version
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch to the old version platform using the following command:
% mml
mml> sw-over::confirm
Step 10 Repeat Step 2 to Step 9 to fall back the new version Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch to the old version
platform.
Step 11 Verify that the pom.dataSync variable is set to True on the active and standby pair of old version
Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches.
This completes the procedure for falling back to previous Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitch software releases
with platform changes.
