Procedure 6.33: GROW MAIN STORE MEMORY VIA LOW-LEVEL MODE (3B20D)
OVERVIEW
This procedure applies only to the 3B20D processor. The office must meet all of the following conditions before
attempting main store memory growth:
Within the past 24 hours, the
5ESS
®
-2000 switch has not experienced any terminal suspends, bootstraps,
diagnostic failures, or overloads.
The disks and input/output processors (IOPs) are in duplex and the control units (CUs) have been in
ACTIVE-STANDBY mode (with the exception of routine maintenance and diagnostic request).
Diagnostics on both CUs have run to successful completion within 24 hours prior to start of growth.
All administrative module (AM) and/or system problems have been cleared before growth activity begins.
An optional Safe Stop Point provides the user with the opportunity to incorporate local practices, such as: soak
periods, personnel assignments, and shift changes.
To fully utilize the new memory, a level 52 of the AM is required. This will result in a 1- to 2-minutes of AM/CNI
downtime.
If the memory growth is being performed for a Software Retrofit, Lucent Technologies recommends that the
system boot to utilize the memory be performed during the retrofit procedure and
NOT
during this procedure.
PROCEDURE
6.33.1 Verify Memory Page Size
NOTE:
This procedure identifies the existing size of the maximum number of memory pages that the operating
system can be configured. This value is obtained in the
pages
field of the
btparm
form in the incore data
base.
Since the memory will be increased, the value of
pages
must be large enough to accomodate the intended
memory growth. If it is not then
pages
value must be increased before proceeding to memory growth.
