Procedure 6-13 To configure an ageout constraint policy
An ageout constraint policy defines the database ageout period for a specific object
type. When the age of an object reaches the ageout value, the 5620 SAM deletes the
object from the database. The 5620 SAM has the following preconfigured ageout
constraint policies:
• ressubscr.ResidentialSubscriberInstance—residential subscriber instance
Residential subscriber instances on an NE become inactive when the subscriber
is deleted from the NE. The accumulation of inactive residential subscriber
instances can be particularly rapid during operations such as Wi-Fi offload.
• aapolicy.DbInfoTransitSubscriber—AA transit subscriber
• dynsvc.DynSvcActivityEntry—dynamic service activity logs
1 Choose Administration→Constraint Policies→Ageout Constraint Policies from the
5620 SAM main menu. The Ageout Constraint Policies form opens.
2 Select a policy and click Properties. The Ageout Constraint Policy form opens.
3 Review the Object Count information in the Status panel. The information refers
to the most recent object deletion, and can help you define the appropriate
ageout time and deletion interval values for the policy.
4 Configure the parameters.
5 Save your changes and close the form.
6 If required, edit the ageout constraint policy configuration file to modify the
following parameters in the Deletion Interval panel:
• Synchronization Time—shown as ageoutSyncTime in the configuration file
• Interval (hours)—shown as ageoutInterval in the configuration file
Note 1 — The default Qualified Ageout Time for most object types is:
• 24 hours, if the 5670 RAM is not enabled using the 5620 SAM installer
• 1464 hours, if the 5670 RAM is enabled using the 5620 SAM installer
The default value does not change when the 5670 RAM is enabled using
a different method, in which case the value must be changed manually
to enable optimum 5620 SAM and 5670 RAM interoperation.
Note 2 — The Qualified Ageout Time defaults are guidelines. Consider
the following when setting the Qualified Ageout Time:
• A small value can prevent excessive database table growth.
• The value must be great enough to allow sufficient time to upload
the database records to a third-party application.
Caution — Contact Alcatel-Lucent technical support before you
attempt to modify a 5620 SAM configuration file. Modifying a 5620 SAM
configuration file can have serious consequences that may include
service disruption.
