The three configuration files can be created by running BCS on a BCU/CAL used as a master. Then, these files can be
copied to the appropriate directory (1.2/cnfg) on a target BCU, and the target will assume the same configuration values.
Changes specific to the target must be made either by running BCS on the target or by making the changes on the master,
copying the configuration files to the target, then reversing the changes to restore the master to its baseline configuration.
NOTE
To copy or delete the configuration files from a BCU/CAL, you must NOT be running BCS on that system. BCS keeps all
the configuration files open while it is running, thereby preventing them from being deleted or overwritten.
3.2.3.8. Operator Functions
An EDACS system operator is able to perform the following functions locally or remotely using a terminal interface
program running on the BCU/CAL:
•
Input of default configuration database.
•
Default pseudo hang time.
•
Default group billing mode.
•
Input of configuration data for individual LIDs and/or GIDs to override the default configuration database.
(Configuration data may be input for an individual ID or range of IDs.)
- LID pseudo hang time.
- GID pseudo hang time.
- GID group billing mode.
•
Creation of a magnetic tape archive of CDRs.
•
Transfer CDR files from the hard drive to the floppy drive.
Refer to LBI-38967 for a detailed explanation of the available operator functions.
3.2.3.9. Database Elements
This section describes the elements of the BCU's configuration database.
Default Data
A set of subscriber default attributes maintained on the system contains the following information:
1.
Default unit pseudo hang time (seconds)
2.
Default group pseudo hang time (seconds)
3.
Default group billing mode (caller or group)
4.
Default data call pseudo hang time (seconds)
Unit Data
Each subscriber can be assigned a record in the subscriber attribute database. This record contains the following
information: Pseudo_Hang-Time (seconds).
Group Data
Each group defined on the system shall be assigned a record in the subscriber attribute database containing the following
information:
1.
Group pseudo hang time (seconds)
2.
Billing mode (group or caller)
