7 Updating the OMU DatabaseThis chapter describes how to update configuration data in the OMU database by running MML
command scripts.
Prerequisites
l You have completed the section You have 6 Logging In to the BSC6910 Through the
LMT..
l The MML command data scripts applicable to the local office are verified and the contents
are precise and complete.
Context
l There are two ways to run MML command scripts: by running MML commands or using
the GUI. The MML command script can be executed by using the GUI only when a script
is smaller than 4 MB. It is recommended that you run the MML script by running MML
commands, because it is more efficient.
l You can query the active workspace of the OMU through the MML command LST
OMUAREA. The following procedure assumes that the active workspace is version_a.
Procedure
l Run the MML command script by running MML commands
1. Run the MML command SET CFGDATAINEFFECTIVE to set the system to work
in ineffective mode.
CAUTION
If the database has been updated, run the MML command SET
CFGDATAINEFFECTIVE to set the system to work in ineffective mode.
2. Run the MML command RST DATA. Click Yes in the displayed dialog box to
initialize the BSC6910 configuration data in the OMU database.
3. Upload the MML command script to the /ftp folder in the OMU active workspace
directory. The following assumes that the MML script BATCHFILE.txt saved in
disk D is uploaded to the OMU active workspace /mbsc/bam/version_a/ftp tointroduce the two methods.

NOTE
The FTP user name is always FtpUsr. The FTP password is set during the OMU
application installation. Both the FTP username and password are already recorded in the
Information Records of OMU Software Installation.
e. Input cd /mbsc/bam/version_a/ftp to switch to the OMU active workspace.
f. Input put BATCHFILE.txt to upload the file.
g. After the file is uploaded successfully, input quit to disconnect the FTP.
4. Run the MML command RUN BATCHFILE to run the batch command file. It is
recommended that you set Finish Type to ANY_ERR_RETURN(Stop at Error),
Result Recording Type to REC_ERR(Record errors), Source File Name toBATCHFILE.txt, and Result File Name to RUN_BATCHFILE_RESULT.txt .
NOTE
l The result file RUN_BATCHFILE_RESULT.txt is saved in the /ftp folder in the OMU
active workspace installation directory, that is, /mbsc/bam/version_a/ftp.
l The execution of the script takes a certain period of time. For example, 1-1.5 hours will be
needed for executing a script with 100,000 commands.
l If the MML script fails to be executed, open the RUN_BATCHFILE_RESULT.txt file
to check the commands that fail to be executed. Then, extract the commands that fail to be
executed and the commands that have not been executed to generate a new MML script.
Correct the MML script based on the displayed messages, and then go toStep 4 to run the
new script.
l Run the MML script by using the GUI
1. Run the MML commandSET CFGDATAINEFFECTIVE to set the system to work
in ineffective mode.
