About this document
Purpose
This preface provides an overview of this information product (IP), which is the
Alcatel-Lucent 1350 OMS Administration Guide, Vol 1: Common Tools and Processes.
The purpose of the 1350 OMS Administration Guide, Vol 1: Common Tools and Processes
is to explain to system and network administrators how to administer and to maintain the
1350 OMS 9.6.
What's new
This document has been reissued on to support the 1350 OMS 9.6.
Safety information
This document does not contain any safety information (cautions or warnings) because
the 1350 OMS is a software product.
Important! When working with any hardware that is associated with any piece of
software, always refer to the safety information that the hardware manufacturer provides
for that particular piece of hardware. For example, when working with an HP® server,
refer to safety information that is provided in the HP® documentation for that server.
When working with any Alcatel-Lucent network element, refer to safety information that
is provided in the Alcatel-Lucent documentation for that particular NE.
Intended audience
The 1350 OMS Administration Guide, Vol 1: Common Tools and Processes is written
primarily for operations personnel who administer and maintain the 1350 OMS. This
document can be used by anyone who needs specific administration information about the
features, applications, and operations of the 1350 OMS. These people are you, its users.

Conceptual and task content
In the broadest sense, this document contains the following types of content:
• Conceptual content, which is background information, is given so users can better
understand the tasks that must be performed. The presentation of conceptual
information varies according to the topic being explained—sections, subsections,
tables, figures, and screen captures can be commonly found.
• Task content, which includes step-by-step instructions, is provided so users can
administer, provision, and maintain the system. The task information is typically
presented as series of tasks that follows the conceptual information.
The conceptual information complements and enhances the step-by-step instructions that
are found in each task. To optimize the use of the conceptual and task content, users
should consider the following:
• The conceptual information should be used to broaden your general knowledge of the
network management system. It is best if you read all conceptual information and
have a good understanding of the concepts being presented before undertaking the
step-by-step instructions given in any task.
• The conceptual and task portions of the document have extensive hyperlinks. Use
these links to toggle between the two types of information presented so you can
access all pertinent information related to particular concepts and tasks.
• The task information is based on a user needs analysis that has been performed for
each management system user job; therefore, use the task information to get the job at
hand done quickly and with minimal system impact.

The Web Desktop is the available mechanism that both system administrators and users
can use to access the 1350 OMS GUI. It provides a central access point from which both
system administrators and users are authenticated and from which they can navigate to
the Web Portal to access the 1350 OMS applications.
The Web Portal is a Java application that is started when the administrator or user logs in
from the Web Desktop. The Web Portal provides the administrator with a view of all 1350
OMS applications and manages GUI navigation between the subsystem components. The
Web Portal also provides various methods of navigation—such as menus, icons, and a left
tree navigation area—between applications and tools.
From the 1350 OMS Web Portal, administrators can set up each application and its users,
and users can access the network and element level applications that enable the family of
Alcatel-Lucent NEs to be provisioned.

1350 OMS OI
The 1350 OMS OI software package is installed on top of an already installed and
configured MW-INT platform and independently of any other application such as the
1350 OMS SDH, 1350 OMS PKT, or 1350 OMS WDM any element manager such as the
1350 OMS EML or 1350 OMS eOMS.
The 1350 OMS OI enables the 1350 OMS applications to export or import data to
multiple external operation systems (OSs). The 1350 OMS OI is a flexible, powerful, and
effective set of generic OS-to-OS interfaces (GENOS) that allow an external OS to
synchronize alarms, performance monitoring, network inventory, and remote inventory
data with any of the 1350 OMS applications.
The 1350 OMS OI is explained in detail in the 1350 OMS OI Guide (8DG42227HAAA).
This document includes installation, administration, and user information for the Open
Interfaces (OIs) that are supported for the 1350 OMS.

Product and Administration Overview ANTP
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
ANTP
ANTP Overview
ANTP is an Alcatel-Lucent proprietary network time protocol (NTP) that enables a
precise, real-time clock alignment between the NEs and a reference clock source, such as
an ANTP server. ANTP is based on an algorithm that NTP implements and uses in the
UNIX® environment.
While NTP functions in TCP/IP environment, ANTP protocol is based on OSI layer 3
(Connectionless Network Protocol, or CLNP) communication services. To synchronize
the NE and the reference source, modifications in the interface and packet format of
standard NTP product enable it to be plugged on top of CLNP.
ANTP is based on a client-server paradigm. The NE functions as the client, while the
ANTP server is typically located on the network manager. The client (the NE)
periodically queries the server to discover the current time and date on the server. This
periodic query enables round trips delays and average statistical values to be calculated
for the best real-time alignment of the client (the NE) and server.

System-wide OA&M security
The 1350 OMS affords a single backup and restore capability for all data domains that are
associated with the core applications. In addition, the system supports a central start/stop
of the entire platform, one embedded component, or one process group.
For Disaster Recovery configurations, a system backup facility is available if the security
of a system has been compromised and recovery to a secure state is needed.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Instance types for the HP-UX platform
The 1350 OMS supports the following types of instances for the HP-UX platform:
• A Master instance is that instance of an application that supplies all data concerning
that application.
• A Client instance is that instance of an application that is requesting all data
concerning the application from the master instance.
When configuring a 1350 OMS application, that configuration must be created only on
Master instances. The configuration is not required on client instances.
Related tasks
The following tasks are related to instances:
• “Remove an Instance of an Application” (p. 2-4)
• “Free System Resources Used by an Application Instance” (p. 2-6)
To install an instance of an application, refer to the 1350 OMS Installation Guide.
Virtual machine format for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Platform
Within the Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers, applications run in a specific virtual
machine. Each application has a dedicated operating system, with a specific software
platform, RAM, NICs, and hard disks.
The format for the name of the virtual machine consists of the following:
VM hostname, application name, instance type, and identification number of application
instance
Virtual machines can be managed through Red Hat's Virtual Machine Manager for the
most common tasks such as start, stop, and access to the console.

Multi-LAN Configurations
Overview
When the 1350 OMS EML is installed with HP-UX 11iV3 (Hewlett Packard Unix), all
LANs that are present in configuration—for both master and presentation systems—must
have an IP address, even if they are not being used.
The Retix Stack can be used on more than one LAN board. Every LAN board that is
being used must be configured with an appropriate TCP/IP address. Usually lan0 is
automatically configured by the HP-UX Operating System in the installation phases, but
other LANs must also be configured.

Node Name Management tool network example
The following Node Name Management tool example aids in the understanding of the
Node Name Management tool. In addition, this example is referred to in the following
tasks:
• “Change the IP Address of a Remote Node” (p. 4-23)
• “Change the IP Address of the Current/Local Node” (p. 4-26)
• “Change the Hostname of a Remote Node” (p. 4-29)
• “Change the Hostname of the Current/Local Node” (p. 4-32)
Example:
The following five HP9000 servers are within one network management system. Their
identifying information is as follows:
• hosta IP address 192.200.49.1 Role SDH Client
• hostb IP address 192.202.21.7 Role EMLMaster
• hostc IP address 192.202.21.8 Role SDH Client
• hostd IP address 192.202.22.4 Role SDH Master
• hoste IP address 192.200.22.5 Role EML Master
In addition, other network equipment, such as routers, local and network printers, PCs,
and time synchronization equipment, can be identified as follows:
• router1 IP address 192.200.49.244 Left LAN router
• router2 IP address 192.202.21.244 Central LAN router
• gpsrec1 IP address 192.202.21.51 Time synchronization through Global Position
System
• router3 IP address 192.202.22.244 Right LAN router
• lp1 IP address 192.202.22.6 Network line printer
In this example, hosta is connected to a WAN, which in turn, enables it to communicate
with four other hosts, a GPS time receiver, and a network printer through three routers.

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore scbackup Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
scbackup Overview
Backup objective
The backup procedure provides the administrator with an easy-to-use tool to store, on
tape or on a disk directory (local or remote mounted via Network File System - NFS), the
contents of the disks and the disk partitioning. The backup can be used if a disk failure
occurs or if data corruption becomes evident.
All backups are done using the scbackup command.
Backup tools
The backup procedure uses the following HP-UX® tools:
• fbackup, which is the backup tool that is included in the HP-UX® 11.31 Core.
• Ignite-UX, which is an add-on HP® tool for system installation services.
The versions of the tool that are certified are listed in the following table. The behavior of
scbackup is only guaranteed with the versions that are listed in the following table. Using
an older version of the tool can cause the backup to fail.
scbackup syntax
The command syntax of scbackup is as follows:
The following syntax is the typical format for a backup:
scbackup [-t <minutes>] [-a <dir_name>][-o <option list>] [-d] ARG...
The following syntax must be used when errors occur during the backup and the disk
mirroring must be recovered. The failed backup displays a warning message that this
syntax must be used:
scbackup -R
The following syntax is used to print the procedure version or for help:
scbackup -v | -h

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore scbackup Overview
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Where:
• -t <minutes> specifies the time to wait in minutes to insert a new tape. If the time
expires, the backup is terminated. The default is an infinite waiting time. This option
is not allowed if the -a option is specified.
• -a <dir_ name> specifies that the output of the backup is to be generated in a file that
is stored on the associated disk directory (<dir_name>). This directory can be
mapped on a local disk or on a remote disk that has been mounted by the Network
File System (NFS). The filename will have the format:
<hostname>_<yymmdd>-<time>_fbackup.out
For example: tlvsnk_101123-15.21_fbackup.out
Important! The disk directory must already be specified in /etc/fstab using the
following syntax:
<directory> <mount-point> <type> <options> <backup frequency> <pass
number> [<comment>]
Example for a local directory:
/dev/vg01/lvol3 /bck_dir vxfs nolargefiles,delaylog 0 0
Example for a remote directory:
nodeName:/bck_dir /bck_dir nfs rw,nolargefiles 0 0
For more information about the syntax of fstab, refer the fstab man page.
• -o <option_list> specifies the command options, which can be one of the following:
noIRT | IRTonly
online | offline
One option, or none, can be selected from each pair:
– noIRT skips the IRT production.
– IRTonly makes only an IRT version.
Note: If the -a option is specified and the creation of the IRT is required, use
either of the following:
scbackup -a <dir_name> ... .
Or:
scbackup -a <dir_name> -o IRTonly ...
The scbackup does not provide a bootable tape; but, it does provide a bootable
ISO image that can be used to reproduce the current system configuration. (This
bootable image must be burned on a DVD.) The image is stored on the associated
disk directory (<dir_name>) with a filename that has this format:
<hostmane>_<yymmdd>-<time>_image.iso
For example: tlvsnk-101123_15.21_image.iso

– online forces the online backup. If online is not specified, the default is offline.
– offline forces the offline backup, which is the default.
• -d, which is for test purposes only, specifies that a dry-run is to be done. When -d is
specified, most checks are performed, but a tape is not written to. The -d option is not
available if the -a option is specified.
• -R specifies that a recovery is to be done. When -R is specified, a recovery from
previous disk mirroring errors occurs.
• -v specifies that a version is to be done. It prints the procedure version and exits.
• -h specifies that a short help page is to be displayed. It displays the page and exits.
• ARG, which are the command arguments, are as follows:
system specifies a system disk backup. Local application instances are ignored.
<name_version_id> specifies an application instance backup. More than one instance
can be specified.
<no arguments> specifies a local disk backup. The entire contents of the local disk
are backed up.
For backups of application instances, the command format, in its simplest form, is the
following:
...,sys,root # scbackup instance_0 ... instance_n [Enter]
This command format produces a tape that contains the application instances that are
listed as command arguments. Each command argument has the following format:
<name>_<version>_<id>
The data for <name>_<version>_<id> can be retrieved with the following command:
scinstance -l
A shared instance backup is allowed only if the instance has status SMVI-SA, which is the
instance is active on its master system.
Example:
....sys,root # scbackup SDH_9.6.0_1 EML_9.6.0_1
This command line backs up two application instances; the tool automatically determines
if these instances should be backed up online or standard/offline.

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore Backup Strategies
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Backup Strategies
Types of backups
The following types of backups can be done using scbackup:
• “Online backups” (p. 5-6)
• “Standard backups” (p. 5-6)
Online backups
Online backups are used to back up disks without having to shut down and reboot the
system.
Online backups are typically performed during these scenarios:
• When the logical volumes to be backed up are mirrored and in a stable state; and, the
administrator does not select the offline option.
During this scenario, the administrator must stop all applications, the logical volumes
are split, the backup is performed, and the administrator is advised that the
applications can be restarted.
• When the administrator has forced an online backup using the online option, which
overrides the default.
During this scenario, the administrator must stop all applications that involve the
particular logical volumes. The applications can be restarted when the backup is
completed.
Important! If the administrator does not specify online or offline in the scbackup
command line, the default is offline.
Standard backups
Standard backups, which are also referred to as offline backups, require the system to be
shut down and a reboot to occur when backing up the local disks. All applications are
stopped, either by a system shutdown or by a command.
A standard backup is performed during the following scenarios:
• At least one of the logical volumes to be backed up is not mirrored or its mirroring
state is not stable and the administrator has not selected the online option.
• The administrator has forced the backup using the offline option to override the
default.
Instance backups
An instance backup is used to back up the Alcatel-Lucent TMN application data. All
application instances, local or shared, can be backed up. (Local instances can also be
backed up through the steps that are given in the “Run scbackup for a Local Disk or an
Application Instance Backup” (p. 5-24) task.)

8DG42227LAAA-Vol1 9.6
Issue 3 September 2014
HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore Backup Strategies
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The steps to back up applications instances are those steps that are listed in “Run
scbackup for a Local Disk or an Application Instance Backup” (p. 5-24) task, unless the
following scenarios occur:
• An IRT is not made.
• The standard backup does not perform a system shutdown and reboot when the shared
instances have to be backed up. The backup only requires the applications to be shut
down while the backup is writing data to tape.
Refer to “scbackup syntax” (p. 5-3) for a detailed explanation of the command syntax to
use when backing up an application instance.
After the tool analyzes the options that are specified in the command line, it outputs a
display that is similar to the following:

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Second set: the fbackup set containing the entire local disk
The second tape set is created by the fbackup tool and it contains the entire contents of
the local disk. This backup can be done online or offline. The tool can automatically
choose the most appropriate type of backup depending on the system configuration and
the status; however, the administrator can override any automatic choices.
Depending on the data size, more than one tape might be needed.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Console restriction
fbackup is executed in single user mode during the HP-UX boot phase.
Important! If you shut off the console terminal or disconnect the Web console during
the execution of fbackup, fbackup is interrupted and the backup does not complete.

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore Troubleshoot a Backup
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Troubleshoot a Backup
Log files
The scbackup tool creates one log file that records all data that pertains to the entire
backup:
/SCINSTALL/log/scbackup.log
System crashes
If a system crash occurs during an online backup, the configuration of the original disk
must be recovered, which is done automatically at system start-up.
Time-out expiration
If the administrator started the backup with the -t option and does not fulfill a request for
a new tape cassette within the set time, the backup tool terminates and must be run again.
Should this scenario occur, backup can be run with the -o noIRT option, which skips the
creation of the IRT.
MERGE-DELETE problems
Any MERGE-DELETE problems are typically the cause of faulty disk mirroring. The
administrator should check the log file for errors and manually run the scbackup -R
command.
Login messages
If problems occur at the end of a standard/offline backup, the fbackup tool displays
warning or error messages upon login. The administrator should check both types of
messages in the /SCINSTALL/log/scbackup.log file to determine the nature of the message
and/or the potential problem.
After a backup on tape, the following warning message can be ignored:
WARNING: unable to read a volume header.

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore Restore and screstore
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Restore phases
The restore consists of the following phases:
• The first phase uses the IRT tape set or ISO image, and it recreates the Logical
Volume Manager (LVM) disk configuration of the local disks that exists at backup
time. In addition, it installs a minimal operating system that allows the system to be
booted from disk. This phase destroys the existing content of the local disks.
• The second phase recovers the contents of the local disks, which are typically grouped
in the volume group vg00. The administrator must run the screstore tool to complete
this phase.
• The third, and optional phase, recreates the volume groups for the shared instances
and recovers data on external disks. The administrator must run the screstore tool to
complete this phase.
screstore syntax
The command syntax for screstore is the typical format for a backup:
screstore [-a <dir_name>] [ARG] ...
Where:
-a <dir_name> specifies that the input of restore is a file that is stored on the associated
disk directory (<dir_name>) with the following name:
<hostname>_<yymmdd>-<time>_fbackup.out
Example:
tlvsnk_101123-15.21_fbackup.out
-v prints the version of the tool.
-o displays a short help file.
[ARG] are the command arguments for the application instances.
Example:
...,sys,root # screstore SDH_9.6.0.1
If an argument is not specified, the contents of the entire backup tape or ISO image is
restored/recovered.

IRT recovery
Note: If you performed a backup on a directory disk (using the –a option with the
scbackup command), the IRT is a DVD that contains the bootable ISO image.
The recovery of the Ignite-UX Recovery Tape (IRT), includes the following activities,
which are performed by booting the HP Integrity system from the IRT:
• Reconfiguration all of the hard disks in use, exactly as they were, at backup time.
• Restoration of a minimum HP-UX® operating system on the hard disks so the
frecover tool can be run.

IRT rebooting errors
If Ignite-UX encounters errors during the recovery, output similar to the following is
displayed:

* - An error has occurred!
* - Refer to the file /etc/rc.log for more information.
Console messages that are displayed during the reboot from the IRT
Because the IRT restores only a subset of entire HP-UX® operating system and nothing
of 1350 OMS application, errors can occur.
The following is a useless error message that occurs when the system is rebooted from the
restored disks. This type of message occurs because of the partial recovery that Ignite-UX
performs and because of the temporary inconsistency between the restored files and the
contents of /etc/inittab. The messages disappear after the recovery of the fbackup set;
and in general, output that is similar to the following display should be ignored:

HP-UX Platform System Backup and Restore Mirror Configurations
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Mirror Configurations
The scmirrorfs tool
The scmirrorfs tool is used to assign and/or reassign disks for the mirror copy of data.
This tool requires the administrator to enter the device names of the primary disk and the
alternate disk that must be used to store the mirror copy of the data. Use of the scmirrorfs
tool can possibly change the configuration.
Disk requirements
The following disk requirements apply:
• The administrator must know the names of the primary and the alternate disks that are
to be used in the mirror configuration.
• The disks that belong to the mirror copy disk do not have to be physically identical to
the main disk set.
• The amount of space on both disks must be sufficient to store all of the logical volume
that is currently defined.
• The disks that belong to the mirror copy disk set should not share the same SCSI bus
as the main disk. When the configuration script recognizes that the disk that is being
added to the mirror copy is connected to a SCSI bus that is already in use for the main
disk set, output similar to the following is displayed:
WARNING: Controller disk already used in “Main path (pvg0)"
Do you want to choose another disk ?
To guarantee the machine functionality if the disk controller fails, you must to choose
another disk that belongs to another chain.

Is the label OK (y|n) ? : y
If the ISO image file labels do not match, enter n to stop the restoration/recovery:
Is the label OK (y|n) ? : n
Result: The recovery procedure continues to check the tape consistency, volume
groups, and logical volumes that are to be restored. If any check fails and the error is
not recoverable, the tool aborts or displays a warning message. When all checks are
completed, the recovery procedure prompts you to continue.
When performing an instance restore, the tool checks the instances that are found on
the tape BEFORE it checks the volume groups. If the mount point for the file system
of an instance is not found in the system, the tool outputs a similar warning and asks
you if you want it to create the mount point. The tool outputs this type of message for
every missing mount point. If you are performing an instance restore, go to Step 5.
Important! Read the warning messages that the tool outputs during this phase and
answer y to continue only if you are sure that the warning messages are not applicable
to your configuration.
The frecover tool ends successfully. If the system was mirrored at the time of the
backup, the procedure reminds you to rebuild the disk mirroring using the scmirrorfs
when it ends.

Backup and Restore
Overview
Purpose
This chapter provides the conceptual material and the tasks that users need to perform
backup and restore procedures on Red Hat Enterprise Linux server.
The 1350OMS MW_OS backup and restore for Red Hat Enterprise Linux is structured
separately for the following:
• backup/restore of the server host, which is explained in the “Backup and Restore for
the Server Host” (p. 6-2) section of this chapter.
• backup and restore of virtual machines, which is explained in the “Backup and
Restore of Virtual Machines” (p. 6-14) section of this chapter.
Important! The data integrity of a virtual machine can only be guaranteed when the
backup is executed on a virtual machine that is stopped.

scbackup syntax
The syntax of scbackup, which is the script that is designed to perform the server host
backup, is the following:
scbackup [-m <media>] [-l <logfile>] [-[0-9]] [-V] [-f] [-h] [-v]
Where:
-m or –media specifies the media type. Possible values are dvd, tape, or nfs.
-l or -log specifies a log file different from the default. If you do not specify a logfile, then
/SCINSTALL/log/scbackup.log is assumed.
-[0-9] is the set compression level between 0 and 9 (where 0 = no compression, 9 =
maximum compression). -[0-9] allows you to change the default compression that is
used. The default value is 8 for ISO image.
-V or -verify is to verify the backup when it has completed.
-f or -full includes the virtual machine directory in the backup set.
-h or -help provides a short help description.
-v or -version provides the scbackup version.
The scbackup tool is interactive; meaning, it asks you where the backup file should be
stored, and which device or directory should be used depending on the media that you
have selected.

scVMBackup archive
The archive that scVMBackup creates is a multiple level directory structure.
At the first level, there are two directories:
• VMs
• backing_files
The backing_files directory contains a copy of all virtual disks, referred to as backing
files, by virtual machines, which allows you to restore this type of file if corruption or
accidental deletion should occur. The scVMBackup archive can also be stored on the NFS
mounted file system or on the USB disk, but only if the file system supports files that are
larger than 4GB.
Note: A USB disk or key that is formatted as FAT32 is not supported.
To store scVMBackup in an NFS file system or a USB drive, the file systems have to be
mounted manually first.
The VMs directory is where the virtual machines backup of all virtual machines is stored.
A specific directory with the same name of the VM is created beneath it where other
numbered directories host the virtual machine xml description and the copy of their
virtual disks.

scVMBackup syntax
The syntax of scVMBackup is the following:
scVMBackup [-a <archive> | -t <tape> ] <vm name>
Where:
arhive is the name of the archive tree root directory.
tape is the name of the tape device.
vm name is the name of the virtual machine to back up.
scVMBackup checks if the virtual machine status is shut off. If it is shut off,
scVMBackup creates a dedicated subdirectory in the archive tree, dumps the virtual
machine description xml files to it, and copies all virtual disks there. Otherwise, the script
terminates with an error message.
scVMRestore syntax
The syntax of scVMRestore is the following:
scVMRestore [-a <archive> | -t <tape> ] <vm name>
Where:
arhive is the name of the archive tree root directory.
tape is the name of the tape device.
vm name is the name of the virtual machine to restore.
scVMRestore recovers the virtual machine from the xml saved dump and copies the
backed up virtual disk.
If the specified virtual machine already exists, the script first asks confirmation and then
shuts the virtual machine down (if it is running) and then deletes the virtual machine
before proceeding.

Security Overview
Security requirements
To guarantee the most secure system possible and to reduce the risk of security breaches,
1350 OMS sets up a secure configuration and hardens the system using the 1350 OMS
security configuration tool, which is scsecurity.
This security platform is based on user authentication, which is based on the following:
• The system identifies each user with a user identifier, or a UID.
• The system grants access to the system through the use of a password.
The software that the 1350 OMS relies on and the software that is required for the
security set-up procedure for a Red Hat Enterprise Linux environment is summarized in
the following table:

About security banners and scsecurity
The 1350 OMS security sets up banners pages that are displayed at login time for both the
shell and ftp access.
Administrators can choose between two kinds of banner messages:
• long
• short
Two variables have been introduced in the following security custom parameters file:
/SCINSTALL/security/data/custom/security.parms
These variables, along their comments, are the following:
• COMPANY_NAME=""
## Company name to be used in banner messages.
• SHORT_BANNER="NO"
## Enable short banner for login services: "YES" or "NO" in uppercase.
## "NO" default use long banner - "YES" use short banner.
If the variable COMPANY_NAME is empty when the security is activated for the first time,
the procedure stops. The following message is output:

Log Files
Log files functional overview
When the trusted-advanced security profiles are selected during an iteration of
scsecurity, a set of the following files are created or managed to record relevant system
occurrences:
“Log Files” (p. 10-23)
On a regular basis, the logrotate tool collects the log files. This tool periodically verifies
the files and moves them from their original location to a dedicated filesystem on the
/.ARCHIVE directory, where the files are compressed, encrypted, and archived if the
option is enabled by the ENCRYPT_ARCHIVE security parameter. This process ensures that
the largest amount of data is stored and guarantees a reasonable time between downloads.
Refer to “Encryption set up” (p. 10-26) for details.
Note: On the HP-UX system, the /.ARCHIVE file system is created to store the system log
files and about 10 audit files. Its dimension is based on the value that is defined in the in
“PRI_SWITCH” (p. 10-39) and “SEC_SWITCH” (p. 10-39) security parameters. On the
Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, the file system is created to store the system log files.
Its dimension is based on the value that is defined in the in “ARCHIVE_LOG_SIZE”
(p. 10-34) security parameter.
An email list that is available in the “WARN_USERS_LIST” (p. 10-41) security
parameter should be used to advise the administrator when the data in the ./ARCHIVE file
system exceeds the 80% threshold capacity and when the 90% threshold capacity is
crossed.
If the administrator does not move the files to another location or archives the files on
tape before the second threshold is reached, the oldest files are automatically removed to
make space available for the newest files.
Log files
Some system log files are automatically stored in the /.ARCHIVE directory for the
following reasons:
• To keep and maintain a long system history
• To prevent the abnormal growth of the file
The structure that is associated with the . /.ARCHIVE directory is created by scsecurity
during the initial activation of a trusted-advanced profile.
These log files are compressed and renamed according to the following naming
convention:
<log prefix>-<date>-<time>.gz
Where:
<log prefix> is a unique file prefix that is defined for each log file.
<date> is the date of the move and compression.

8DG42227LAAA-Vol1 9.6

Security Log Files
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
<time> is the time of the move and compression.
gz is the file type extension for gnu zip.
Example:
The cron log file is saved on January 1, 2013 at 15:57:59. In the /.ARCHIVE directory, the
respective log file is called:
cron.log-2013_01_01-15:57:49.gz

Encryption set up
The administrator can change the default security configuration so it archives audit files
(for HP-UX only) and log files in encrypted format. To enable this function, the
administrator must change the settings of both the “ENCRYPT_ARCHIVE”
(p. 10-35) and “CHANGE_ENCRYPT_PASSWORD” (p. 10-34) parameters to YES.
Important! We recommend that the administrator sets the encryption policy for both of
these parameters before the security is activated. It is dangerous to change the encryption
policy after security is activated; and if it must be done, it must be done carefully.
When the ENCRYPT_ARCHIVE and CHANGE_ENCRYPT_PASSWORD parameters
are set to YES, the tool outputs a display that is similar to the following, which requests
the encryption password during the security setup:

audfile-<date>-<time>.gz
Example:
audfile-2013_01_01-15:57:49.gz
The /.ARCHIVE file system is automatically created to store more than 10 audit files,
however, when the file system becomes full, the collected audit data is lost.
The current audit file is compressed and moved into the /.ARCHIVE directory each time
the 1350 OMS security reverts to the default HP-UX level through scsecurity revert.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Important! For High Availability configurations, the security must be configured at the
same level and with the same parameters set up on every system. A non-aligned security
setup can cause serious problems. Refer to “System Security Parameters” (p. 10-32) for
details.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
4 To customize any additional advanced, encryption, trusted system parameters (for the
HP-UX platform ) or login parameters (for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux platform)
change the values in the following file:
/SCINSTALL/security/data/custom/security.parms
If you do make the modification when the security is configured, log in as root and enter
the following command to apply the new security values to the security configuration:
scsecurity modify
Important! We strongly recommend that you do not change any Trusted System
parameters with the HP® System Management Homepage (SMH). In addition, some
Trusted System parameters cannot be modified with scsecurity modify.
Refer to “System Security Parameters” (p. 10-32) for details.
In addition, refer to “Location and access to the system security parameters”
(p. 10-32) for instructions on how to manage the customization of the security.parms
files.

Note: In the previous output, the subnet mask splits the IP address information into the
subnet and host. The bit that is set to 1 in the netmask identifies the subnet; the bit that is
set to 0 identifies the host. Since the netmask is provided as a hexadecimal bit
representation and the IP address and four figures are dot separated, it is difficult to
identify the two IP address that are masked by netmask, which provides the same subnet.
The easiest way to compare the broadcast information shown is by the ifconfig command.
In the previous output, the display of the same broadcast value indicates if two IP
addresses differ in their binary representation and if they are in the same subnet.
Note: The addressing scheme is designed for optimal network behavior. To improve
network throughput, use the HP® Auto Port Aggregation.

need to extend the file system or the swap area.
To extend the file system, go to step Step 4.
To extend the swap area, go to step Step 5.
If you received the message
Access denied for remote hosts or local hosts during installation, go to
step Step 6.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
4 If the problem encountered during installation was no space available, use the following
steps to extend a file system:
Enter the bdf command to get information about file system sizes.
To extend a file system, enter the following command line:
/SCINSTALL/bin/scextendfs <Filesystem name> <free disk space>

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Where:
• <filesystem name> is the name of the file system to be extended.
• <free disk space> is the total amount of disk space (in Megabytes) that will have
to be available after the scextendfs execution.
If the <filesystem name> does not exist, the command will create it.
According to the installation on the machine, keep following files controlled:
• The core file in the maintenance/core directory.
• The GEM server trace files under the EML instance directory.
• The DB log (Mirror Area) under the EML instance directory:
/usr/Systems/<INSTANCE>>/MirrorArea/axadmin/arch/<hostname>-bin.*
Delete the .arc files if necessary.
• The DB log (Mirror Area) under the SDH instance directory:
/usr/Systems/<INSTANCE>/MirrorArea/SDH_1-9.6.0/snml/arch
Delete the .arc files if necessary.
Example:
/usr/Systems/SDH_1_9.6.0_Master/MirrorArea/SDH_1-9.6.0/snml/arch
• The DB log (Mirror Area) under the PKT instance directory:
/usr/Systems/<INSTANCE>/MirrorArea/PKT_1-9.6.0/bmm/arch
Delete the .arc files if necessary.
Example:
/usr/Systems/PKT_1_9.6.0_Master/MirrorArea/PKT_1-9.6.0/bmml
Note: After you extend the file system, remember to force the packages installation
with the -force parameter. For example:
Install <SDH/EML/PKT/...> -force
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
5 If the problem encountered during installation was no space available, use the following
steps to extend a swap area:
Enter the swapinfo -t command to get information about the swap area.
To extend the swap area, enter the following command:
scextendfs SWAP xxxx
Execute a ps -ef | grep xxxx to have the PID of the process that block the copy and
stop the process using the command kill -9.

6 If you are installing a component from a local depot (and not the standard product
component repository) and you receive an
Access denied for remote hosts or local hosts message, verify the
security files that are authorizing access by remote hosts and users on local host.
For example, in the /.rhosts file, the line 151.98.28.227 root should be present.
This line allows the root user to execute any command on the 151.98.28.227 host.

In the 1350OMS_Setup_Options.cfg file for centralized LDAP, data can be inserted to
have a spare LDAP, which can be used if the main LDAP is faulty.
Note: If your system supports the 1350 OMS HA application, the centralized LDAP
database must be mandatory on the server or Virtual Machine on which SDH/NPR is
running. In the 1350OMS_Setup_Options.cfg configuration file, the following
parameters must contain the data of the HA DRC of SDH/NPR.
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_HOST
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_SOCKET_PORT
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_SSL_PORT

Three examples of 1350OMS_Setup_Options.cfg option file are provided for the
following configurations:
• Radius with distributed LDAP configuration, which is illustrated in “Option file 1:
Radius with Distributed LDAP” (p. 12-30).
• Centralized LDAP configuration, which is illustrated in “Option file 2: Centralized
LDAP” (p. 12-32).
• Radius with centralized LDAP configuration, which is illustrated in “Option file 3:
Radius with Centralized LDAP ” (p. 12-33).
For Radius configurations, refer to “Radius service configuration details” (p. 12-29) for
additional details.
The parameters that you must specify values for are the following:
• USER_LDAP_SERVER_HOST is the IP address of the machine that acts/runs the
Centralized User-DB.
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_HOST is the IP address of the machine that can be used if the
LDAP server becomes faulty.
• USER_LDAP_SERVER_SOCKET_PORT is the LDAP socket port used by the LDAP that
is acting as the Centralized User-DB.
• USER_LDAP_SERVER_SSL_PORT is the LDAP SSL socket port that is used by the
LDAP that is acting as the Centralized User-DB
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_SOCKET_PORT is the LDAP socket port that is used by the spare
LDAP if the LDAP server becomes faulty.
• USER_LDAP_SPARE_SSL_PORT is the IDAP SSL socket port that is used by the spare
LDAP if the LDAP server becomes faulty.
If you do not know which port numbers to use, use the port numbers that other
applications are currently not using on the server. Check the /etc/services file for the full
list of port numbers that are currently in use. If you want to assign port numbers before
you install the machine, we recommend that you use the following ports because they are
typically free of IANA port number assignments:
• USER_LDAP_SERVER_SOCKET_PORT: 4492, in any case, the port number must be
less than 5000 because the port number with greater values are used by the 1350
OMS system applications.
• USER_LDAP_SERVER_SSL_PORT: 4993
Note: A template of the 1350OMS_Setup_Options.cfg option file is available as:
/alu/Install_Wizard/etc/UserDBOptions.cfg.template
This template must be customized with the specific host and port values.
Important! The templates that are provided in “Option file 1: Radius with Distributed
LDAP” (p. 12-30) and “Option file 3: Radius with Centralized LDAP ” (p. 12-33) can
be used, but the appropriate values must be made for the following parameters:
• PRI_RADIUS_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS
• PRI_RADIUS_SERVER_SECRET

Note: Sometimes the UDM server does not respond even if it is running correctly.
Many times, you can remove the UDM problem by scratching the UDM persistency
files; but, be aware that this operation will remove all user settings:
/usr/Systems/Global_Instance/WACOMO/udm/udmrt/script/Stop_UDM_
Service
cd /usr/Systems/Global_Instance/WACOMO/udm/data/persistency/
rm -rf *
/usr/Systems/Global_Instance/WACOMO/udm/udmrt/script/Start_
UDM_Service
The UDM should now be able to get user connections.
Process blocked on a port
Enter the following command to determine which process uses a port (for example.
ssoLsmPort):
lsof | grep TCP | grep ssoLsmPort
If sockets are blocked on LISTEN:
lsof | grep TCP | grep ssoLsmPort | grep LISTEN | while read uno
pid due;
do kill -9 $pid; done
If blocked on a port (for example: ssoLsmPort):
lsof | grep TCP | grep ssoLsmPort | while read uno pid due; do
kill -9 $pid; done
Also see “Application does not start (needs an already used port)” (p. 12-69).
User <user name> not authenticated
If the following message is displayed:
User alcatel not authenticaed. Please retry.
The problem is due to one of the following
• The password is not correct. Please verify it.
• The LDAP database is corrupt. See “SAS, UDM, LDAP” (p. 12-48) to clean/rebuild
the database.
# ----------------------#
# DefaultPasswordPolicy #
# ----------------------#
# The following parameters are used to define a password policy.
# This one can then be populated into LDAP using policy.pl
# tool and references by DEFAULT_PASSWORD_POLICY parameters.
# However, this file can be also directly referenced by
# DEFAULT_PASSWORD_POLICY to be used as default password policy by
SAS.
# IMPORTANT NOTICE:
# In case this file is directly referenced, it is found in
# the order specified in the classpath parameter
# of the java command. The default order where this file should be
found
# (as defined in the classpath used in the start_sas.pl script) is:
# 1) in /sas/config
# 2) in /data/server
# 3) in /sas/template/config
#
# Therefore, if you are using SEC, you should just check that /data/
server/.properties
# points to the correct SEC Server file or LDAP entry (this insures
that the exact same
# policy is used for SEC and for AWP Change Password feature).
# Otherwise you can just copy this file into /sas/config
# and modify it according to your requirements.
# DefaultPasswordPolicy parameters:

# MinLength #

NMA Basic Debug/Configuration Notes
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Logging
Description
The NMA includes two basic sets of logs, each of which can be modified while the server
is up-and-running:
• Debug/Trace logs, which trace the NMA server actions.
• TL1 logs, which trace the TL1 sent to and received from the NE messages.
Trace/Debug logs
Trace logs are located in the maintenance/gemtrace directory. The basic log files are the
following:
• gemServer_ems.trace
• gemServer_ems.error
• tmfserver.trace
• tmfserver.error
• jboss_gemServer_ems.log
When logs reach a maximum size, a new log file is created and the old logs are
renumbered. The logs contain the following:
• gemServer_ems.trace and gemServer_ems.error
These logs contain tracing for NMA logged from NMA code. If NMA catches an error
and logs it, it will be in these files. At the default INFO level, this log contains major
events such as starting/completing domain alignment and TL1 commands and their
time to completion (TL1 responses are not logged here).
• tmfserver.trace and tmfserver.error
These logs contain tracing for the TMF server.
• jboss_gemServer_ems.log
This file contains log records from JBoss itself, which includes error messages from
exceptions that are thrown by NMA, but are not caught by NMA (caught by JBoss) .
Additionally, a jboss_gemServer.stdout file captures the standard output of the Java
process. Generally, this file is not used, but thread dumps are written to this file.
These log files are based on a log4j logging package from the Apache group
(http://logging.apache.org). The log4j-defined server-configuration file that controls
logging for the TMF server is the following:
TMF/data/log4j.tmfServer.xml
This file, which can be modified, is located in the following directory:
EMLIMGEM3/jboss/server/ems/conf/log4j.xml

Troubleshooting Logging
NMA Basic Debug/Configuration Notes
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
The logging system is based on a hierarchy of named loggers, the base of which is
com.alcatel.gem.trace.
Two additional loggers are the following:
– com.alcatel.gem.trace.tl1pc
– com.alcatel.gem.trace.exsnmp
Jboss logging is also based on the same log4j package and detailed logging of JBoss
is also possible. A sample file (Log4J.xml) gives examples for turning on more
detailed JBoss logging, shows how to write to new files, and shows how to set the log
level to specific values for various named loggers.
TL1 logs
TL1 logs are also implemented using log4j, but are not controlled by a typical log4j
configuration file because the logger names are the NE names are therefore dynamic.
Configuration of these files is through the typical configuration used by end users.
TL1 logs are at a low level and they are unprocessed other than basic TL1 parsing. The
content of the TL1 log is basically what comes from the NE−the exact text of the TL1
command, responses, events, and acknowledgements. RTRV-PM commands/responses
are filtered out by defaul, which is controlled by a configuration value.
The TL1 log also shows entries when a session is opened, closed, and fails. TL1
command failure is also logged. One TL1 log file is set for each NE that rolls based on
time (not size) and thus can get large.
The following file:
EMLIMGEM3/jboss/server/ems/deploy/properties-service.xml
contains configuration parameters to control the TL1 logs. Most parameters are well
documented in the XML comments in this file. Changes to TL1 logging do not take affect
until supervision is stopped and restarted. The server does not have to be restarted.
Two additional parameters are available:
• tl1comm.neLogMaxDaysKept determines the number of days of TL1 logs that are
kept. The default is 7. The value can range from [1, 14].
• If tl1comm.includeInLogPM is true, RTRV-PM-* commands and responses are
included in the TL1 logs.

The following configuration parameters control this logging:
• neIOLogPath controls which directory these I/O logs are created in. The directory
must already exist.
• neIOLogFlag controls the logging. Possible values are in, out, or both. Any other
value implies the feature is off. The in value logs all input from the NE. The out value
logs all output to the NE, and both logs both input and output.
Possible values are the following
– in logs all input to the NE
– out logs all output from the NE.
– both logs both input and output to the NE.
– Any other value besides in, out, or both implies that the feature is off.
When turned on, at supervision time, a file named tl1io_xxxxx.debug is be created that
contains all characters sent over this socket based on the configuration. If multiple NEs
are sharing the same socket (GNE with RNEs), all characters are logged to the same file.
This is a character-by-character log and has no knowledge of TL1 of the NEs involved.
This file also never rolls. Everything from socket open to close is logged into the same
file and the file is never removed. It must be manually removed. Changes to this
configuration require stopping/starting supervision. Use this log only to debug cases
where the NE generates illegal TL1 that the normal parsing rejects and thus is not seen in
the normal TL1 logs. Do not leave this logging on for long time because you will run out
of disk space.

Configuration
Description
The NMA/JBoss combination includes a large number of configuration files to control,
but NMA only adds a few of its own. One is designated for parameters that the end user
can modify. Others should be determined at installation time and not changed.

The output value can be used directly.
• jboss-mysql.force.innodb forces JBoss to create tables of the type InnoDB, which
should only be used with MySQL.
Other Configuration
Other configuration values are usually based on built in JBoss values. These can generally
be found in two places.
• Files in the EMLIMGEM3/jboss/server/ems/deploy are scanned by Jboss and are
loaded when possible. Avoid saving backup files and other files in this directory.
JBoss will scan them and try to deploy them. Saving a jar file in this directory is a
sure way to cause problems. Contained directories may also cause problems, but it
depends on the directory and the rules for loading the contents of the contained
directory. For example, anything in the jms directory will be treated just like files in
the deploy directory. Files in the gem.ear directory are not reloaded if the
gem.ear/META-INF/application.xml file (or the jboss-app.xml file) are not also
modified (touched). It is safer to simply not keep backup copies in this directory.
• Files in the EMLIMGEM3/jboss/server/ems/conf directory are loaded by JBoss on
startup only. The log4j.xml file is the only exception. Documentation on most of these
files (and some in the deploy directory) can be found at the JBoss web site
(http://labs.jboss.com/jbossas/docs/index.html).

Functional requirements
To use the system console, the administrator must use a local VT100 terminal or a PC
with a VT100 terminal emulator.
The GSP can be configured so the system console can be used through a LAN
connection. In addition, GSP rev B provides web console functionality.
If a PC with the VT100 terminal emulator is in use, the administrator must have an
RS-232, 9-24 pin male/male cable adapter.

scmirrorfs
The scmirrorfs tool is used to set up the Disk Mirror/UX configuration on a system in
which the mirror configuration has been not done or has been lost (for example, after a
restore from backup). The scmirrorfs tool requires the Disk Mirror/UX software be
installed and the disk configuration to adhere to the functional requirements specified in
“File System Management functional requirements” (p. 14-2).
Refer to the following sections of this document for additional information on scmirrorfs:
• Chapter 7, “Mirror Disks for the HP-UX Platform”
• “Mirror Configurations” (p. 5-20)
• “Run the scmirrorfs Tool to Set Up the Mirrored Configuration” (p. 5-52)
scextendfs
The scextendfs tool is used to extend or to create a file system during the system
installation phase. The tool automatically computes the amount of disk space requested,
including the space for the mirror configuration, and it issues the request for an additional
new disk configuration when needed.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
scextendfs [-l <log file>] [-O] <Mount Point> <Required Space> [<VolGroup>]
scextendfs [-l <log file>] [-O] -f<File>
scextendfs -a <MountPoint>
scextendfs [-i]
scextendfs [-h]
Where:
-l <log file> specifies an output log file that differs from the default log file
(/SCINSTALL/log/scextendfs.log).
-O specifies that disk overhead is to be added. The overhead is computed as 10% of the
amount of space that is already in use in the specified file system, plus the required space.
<MountPoint> specifies the file system that is to be extended through the mount point. If
a file does not exist with this name, the tool creates a new file system and the related
mount point directory.
<ReqSpace> specifies the required space. This value is managed as file system size
during the creation, or the free space that is required when the file system exists. (Note no
action is taken when the existing file system has more free space available that what is
required.)
<VolGroup> specifies the volume group name for the file system. This parameter is
allowed only during the creation of a new file system. If the volume group does not exit,
the tool creates it.
-f <File> specifies the file that was written in the file system list and the relative space
that was required. The syntax is the following:
<MountPoint> <ReqSpace> [<VolGroup>]
This syntax allows a single command to extend or to create an additional file system.
-a specifies that the specified file system can be extended to the remaining volume group
free space.
-i specifies that the current disk configuration should be made visible.
-h specifies that a description of the procedure call should be provided.
Example:
This example illustrates how to extend a file system to have 20% more free space.
1. Use the bdf command to determine the file system size:
...,sys,root # bc
2228224/100*20

3. Extend the file system with the scextendfs tool:
scdeletefs
The scdeletefs tool is used to remove a file system that was created with scextendfs.
Important! When scdeletefs removes a file system, that file system cannot be
restored; meaning, the removal of the file system cannot be reversed.
Formats:
scdeletefs [-l <log file>] <Mount Point>
scdeletefs [-l <log file>] -f<File>
scextendfs -g swap
scextendfs [-i]
scextendfs [-h]
Where:
-l <log file> specifies an output log file that differs from the default log file
(/SCINSTALL/log/scextendfs.log).
<MountPoint> specifies the file system that is to be deleted through the mount point.
-g swap specifies to swap the area garbage collection, which removes more used swap
areas. This command is typically used to remove any TMN applications.
-i specifies that the current disk configuration should be made visible.
-h specifies that a description of the procedure call should be provided.
