Configuring the Actual Maximum Number of Subscribers
Configuring the Actual Maximum Number of Subscribers
The actual maximum number of subscribers supported is based on the capacity option specified when
loading the SCA BB application. If no capacity option is specified, the user-configured default capacity
is used. However, you can override this capacity option using the following commands.
Note the following:
•
You must configure the override before you load the application (PQI file). The configured
maximum number of subscribers takes effect when the next
load
command is executed.
•
If you have disabled the capacity option and then the next time you load a new application you want
to use the capacity option, you must re-enable the capacity option before loading the application file
(see
“How to Restore the Configured Capacity Option” section on page 10-33
).
•
Use the
show
subscriber max-subscribers
command to see what the current maximum number of
subscribers is and whether the capacity option is enabled or disabled (see
Maximum Number of Subscribers” section on page 10-33
How to Override the Configured Capacity Option
The default maximum number of subscribers is 250, 000.
Step 1
If a policy configuration (PQB file) has been applied on Cisco SCE platform, use the SCA BB console
to retrieve it and save it before proceeding.
Step 2
Select the maximum number of subscribers:
From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type
subscriber max-subscribers (40K | 80K | 120K | 200K)
and
press
Enter
.
Step 3
Disable the application capacity option:
From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type
subscriber capacity-options disable
and press
Enter
.
Step 4
Install the new application (PQI) file. (The configured subscriber maximum takes effect only after a new
application file has been loaded.)
Step 5
If you saved the policy configuration (PQB file), apply it to the Cisco SCE platform using the SCA BB
console.
How to Override the Configured Capacity Option in a Cascade Setup
The default maximum number of subscribers is 250, 000. To change the maximum actual number of
subscribers in cascade topology, configure both the standby and active Cisco SCE devices. To change
this value in cascade topology, follow these steps:
Step 1
If a policy configuration (PQB file) has been applied on the standby Cisco SCE platform, use the Cisco
SCA BB console to retrieve it and save it before proceeding.
Step 2
Select the maximum number of subscribers:
SCE(config if)#
subscriber max-subscribers {40K | 80K | 120K | 200K}
Step 3
Disable the application capacity option:
