The following procedures describe how to configure system-wide 5620 SAM
network management functions.
Procedure 5-16 To configure automatic device configuration backup
file removal
Configure the 5620 SAM to automatically remove the configuration backup files for a
device when the device is unmanaged.
1 Navigate to the /opt/5620sam/server/nms/config directory.
2 Create a backup copy of the nms-server.xml file.
3 Open the nms-server.xml file using a plain-text editor.
4 Search for the following XML tag:
</configuration>
5 Enter the following line above the </configuration> tag:
<nodeBackups removeBackupOnDelete="true"/>
6 Save and close the nms-server.xml file.
7 Open a console window.
8 Navigate to the /opt/5620sam/server/nms/bin directory.
9 Enter the following at the console prompt to restart the 5620 SAM server:
bash$ ./nmsserver.bash force_restart ↵
10 The 5620 SAM main server restarts. The 5620 SAM deletes the configuration
backup files of NEs that are subsequently unmanaged.
Caution — This procedure requires a restart of the 5620 SAM server,
which is service-affecting.
Caution — Contact your Alcatel-Lucent technical support
representative before you attempt to modify the nms-server.xml file.
Modifying the nms-server.xml file can have serious consequences that
can include service disruption.
Caution — Restarting a 5620 SAM server is service-affecting. Ensure
that you perform this step only during a scheduled maintenance
window.
