As the oracle user, recreate the FRA. The location of the FRA must be the same as on
the machine where the backup was performed.
(If this location exists, to go the next step.)
Example:
mkdir p /alcatel/oracle/admin/SNM/flash_recovery_area
Result: The FRA location is recreated.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................
14
Restore the backup files to their respective locations, as follows:
Restore the files generated during the database backup to the FRA location,
maintaining the same directory structure.
The FRA location and all sub-directories must have the owner user name set to
oracle and owner group name set to oinstall.
Use the ls al <Flash Recovery Area absolute location> command to
find the current owner information.
To find out the location of the Flash Recovery Area, login to the sqlplus utility and
run the following command:
SQL> show parameter db_recovery_file_dest
The VALUE field has the location of the Flash Recovery Area.
If the owner is different, in a terminal window, as the root user, type:
chown -R oracle:oinstall <Flash Recovery Area absolute
location>
Restore the files saved during the backup oracle configuration files operation to the
same location from where they were backed up.

After the files are restored, check that the owner user name and the owner group name are
the same as the ones noted during the backup oracle configuration files operation.
Use the ls al <file location> command for all the files to find the current owner
information.
The <file location> is the path found in backup oracle configuration files operation.
If the owner is different, in a terminal window, for all the files (one by one), as the root
user, type:
chown -R <owner name>:<owner group> <file location>
Where:
<owner name> is the file owner user name
<owner group> is the file owner group name.

Result: The owner user name and the owner group name are correct.

16
Launch the LDAP process on the machine. As the root user, run the following script:
./start_ldap
Result: The LDAP process starts.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................
17
As the oracle user, check if the /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs/initSNM.ora file has

the following content and modify it if necessary:
*.db_name=SNM
*.db_recovery_file_dest=<Flash Recovery Area location at backup time>
*.db_recovery_file_dest_size=8G
*.sga_target=300M
Note: If the current machine is a T5xxx, the default value for the *.sga_target
parameter is 1G.
To see the machine type, run the following command:
uname -i
A sample initSNM.ora file, with the db_recovery_file_dest defined at the default

location for the FRA is available in the /alcatel/MS/OMC_OSM/conf directory.
Result: The file is checked and modified accordingly.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................

The database restore must be performed using the specific procedure for the backup
method used.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
15
Cleanup the Oracle parameter files.

Note: This step is performed differently on each node of the cluster.
Check if the opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs/orapwSNM orapwSNM<cluster_
instance_node> link exists:
ls -l /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs
If it does not exist, create a symbolic link towards the orapwSNM file.
As the root user, run the following commands:
su - oracle
cd /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs
ln -s /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs/orapwSNM orapwSNM<cluster_
instance_node>
Where <cluster_instance_node> is the node number (1 for node1, 2 for node2,

etc.).
Check if the spfileSNM.ora file is present under ASM:
su - oracle
export ORACLE_SID=+ASM1
asmcmd ls DATA/SNM/spfileSNM.ora
spfileSNM.ora
If the spfileSNM.ora file is not under ASM, create it:

export ORACLE_SID=SNM<cluster_instance_node>
sqlplus / as sysdba

If the spfileSNM.ora file exists under ASM, check if the file exists in /opt/app/oracle/
product/11.1.0/dbs/.
If the file exists, rename it:
mv spfileSNM<cluster_instance_node>.ora backup.spfileSNM<cluster_
instance_node>.ora
Test if the initSNM.ora file exists in /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs/.

cd /opt/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/dbs
cat initSNM<cluster_instance_node>.ora
If the file contains the following line, no action is required:

SPFILE=+DATA/SNM/spfileSNM.ora
If the file does not exist, the cat command returns:

cat: cannot open initSNM<cluster_instance_node >.ora
If the file contents are different from the SPFILE=+DATA/SNM/spfileSNM.ora line,

recreate the file:
echo SPFILE=+DATA/SNM/spfileSNM.ora > initSNM<cluster_instance_node>
.ora
Result: The Oracle parameter files are cleaned.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................

Note: Perform following cleanup on the master node only.

Remove the old (obsolete) backups of Oracle cluster voting disks:
cd /opt/app/oracle/crs/cdata
find . -type f -exec rm -f {} /;
Rename the /etc/rc3.d/_S98muse_cluster file to its original name:

cd /etc/rc3.d
mv _S98muse_cluster S98muse_cluster
Result: The master node cleanup is complete.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................
17
Restart the cluster.

Note: Perform this step for each node of the cluster.
In the /etc/inittab file uncomment the following lines containing the pathnames:
/alcatel/MS/MS_PMON/bin/pmon
/alcatel/MS/CLUSTER/muse_cluster_monitoring
Restart the cluster nodes. As the root user, run the following command:

Procedure 4-2: Change identification mode from CI to LAC/CI

The identification modes supported by NPO are MCC/MNC/CI and MCC/MNC/LAC/CI.
It is possible to swap from the first identification to the later identification (but not the
reverse!). The identification swap affects all the external identifications that may contain
the LAC id (e.g. TRX, TSL, etc). The LAC id is inserted in all such external ids.

the user label value is different to 3.
If it is equal to 3 (corresponding to the CI mode), then change it to 0, 1, or 2 and save the
file.
Result: The user label value is modified.
...................................................................................................................................................................................................
As the root user, perform the following:

cd /alcatel/muse/MUSE_MIGRATION/bin/
./changeIdentificationMode
Result: The changeIdentificationMode process begins.

...................................................................................................................................................................................................
The script checks that the current identification mode is MCC/MNC/CI.

If the current identification mode is:
LAC/CI, the following message appears and you are not allowed to perform the
procedure.
>> ERROR: This machine is currently configured for full
identification, no change mode can be performed
CI, the following message appears:

WARNING: No topology update service may run during this
operation. Make sure NPO is stopped. Continue? (y/n) >>
Type y.
Result: The procedure starts and the displayed messages inform you of the progress
of the operation.
