CDA 7 Maintenance Manual DPS 7000 Add-on Hardware The introduction of standard configuration files has greatly simplified Add-Ons. This chapter describes how to perform such an add-on to a CDA 7 cabinet already installed in the configuration. Perform the required operations in the order shown in Figure 5-1.
Page 89
Add-On/Microcode Upgrade 5.1.1 Step 1 To estimate the installation time, perform the following operation: Build a new configuration file under MNCONF as follows: S:FGF ..F:MNCONF ..N:MD <OLDCONF> <NEWCONF> CDA7 MPORTANT There are a certain number of standard configurations. In an add-on operation, the rule is as follows: Config standard XX+Add-On=Config standard YY Whatever the type of add-on, you will encounter a known configuration.
Page 90
CDA 7 Maintenance Manual Perform the following two commands: − FIRMGEN, − BLOAD on a media intended for the next initialization of the new configuration. For more information, refer to Basic Models in Appendix A, Software Release and CDA 7 Configurations (9 GB Disks), or in Appendix D, Software Release and CDA 7 Configurations (18 GB Disks).
Add-On/Microcode Upgrade 5.1.4 Step 4 The step 4 procedure is as follows: Reinitialize the entire system with the new BLOAD. Any new disk-modules are in NSTD state. Enter a VOLPREP [short] command to assign them the label chosen by your client. Terminate with BLOAD (final)/BLOAD-BACKUP if not already done.
