TePM Controller Release Notes 

17 Dec 2010 

- 2 - 

 

 

Outstanding Issues 

The current TePM Controller software is 1.3.024.  The TePM Controller requires Sun/Oracle Java 
Runtime Edition 1.6 update 5 or later (32-bit version only).  The TePM Controller may only be 
installed on the following operating systems with the Sun/Oracle JRE installed: 

 

RedHat Enterprise Linux v5/CentOS 5.x 

 

Microsoft Windows XP/Vista 

 

Mac OS X Leopard (10.5)/Snow Leopard (10.6) 

All Operating Systems 

Java Virtual Machine 

 

The TePM Controller may periodically generate heap space or random exceptions in the 
tepmDebug.log.  If these errors start to occur, increase the JVM heap memory 
configuration by adding the 

-Xms256m -Xmx512m

 options to the command line used to 

start the TePM Controller. 

 

The TePM Controller does not execute correctly on a 64-bit version of the Sun/Oracle 
JRE. 

SQL Database 

 

The TePM Controller should be configured to use Oracle 10g and PostgreSQL 8.x as the 
DBMS supporting the Controller as opposed to the in-system HSQL DB.  Using the in-
system HSQL DB will cause the host system performance to dramatically degrade after 
receipt of about 8,000 to 10,000 call records. 

 

If the connection to the SQL database is lost while the Controller is running and a user is 
actively logged in, the Controller will ‘hang’ (become unresponsive to mouse movements/ 
button clicks and keyboard key presses) until connectivity to the database is 
reestablished. 

TePM Agent/Test Point Management 

 

The TePM Controller displays the uptime of the multiservices PIC hosting the TePM 
Agent in a Juniper M Series or MX series router as opposed to the router uptime. 

VoIP Test Configuration 

 

The status of the interface-oriented SIP registration is not displayed in the Controller user 
interface.  As a result, it is unclear whether the SIP configuration information specified in 
the Controller is valid for the interface. 

 

The SIP interface-oriented configuration disappears (is reset) after the TePM Agent is 
restarted.  The SIP configuration specified by the Controller for a TePM Agent is not
