OSM Service Connection User's Guide (G06.30+)

This action is run automatically at 2:00 a.m. daily. It can also be performed manually at any time.
See note below for default value of the new Redundant Power Scrub test.
On T0682AAC and later, this OSM action is also supported on Telco systems.
Note: A new version of Redundant Power Scrub is available in T0682AAR and later. It provides
independent battery testing and an extended load test for the bulk power supplies. With
this new version, the action can take up to 25 minutes to complete. The new battery scrub
is significantly enhanced in its ability to detect weak or failed batteries. For systems with
many old batteries (over 5 years old), the battery scrub might call out multiple batteries
for replacement.
To use this new functionality, in addition to installing OSM T0682AAR or later, you
must:
Update all enclosures with a new PIB-to-PIB crossover cable (see FCO 44440).●
Add "PowerScrubVersion = 2" parameter to your OSMCONF file.●
The default test interval for this new version is 7 days instead of 24 hours.
For information on creating and using an OSMCONF file or changing default values for
this or other parameters, see the OSM Migration and Configuration Guide.
Set Physical Location
Allows you to assign these Physical Location attributes for the module:
Rack Name is a user-defined name for the rack containing the module. You can enter up to
eight alphanumeric characters.
●
Rack Offset allows you to display a numerical value representing the location of the module
within the rack. A valid integer (from 1 to 42) must be specified when performing the Set
Physical Location action, or the action will fail.
●
Locator is an optional text string to help identify the physical location of the module. It must
contain alphanumeric characters only.
●
This parameter, used for Telco systems only, allows you to specify a system alarm panel
(SAP) identifier, which is then displayed in OSM by the Alarm Panel Identifier attribute for
this hardware resource. An system alarm panel (SAP) provides visual alarm indicators and
relays for generating three levels of alarms to alert the customer to the severity of a hardware
error in the system. By default, systems are configured with one SAP located in the CIA for
the group 11 I/O enclosure. You might need to set the Alarm Panel Identifier if the system has
multiple SAPs, you add equipment to a system, or you move equipment from one system to
another.
