Features and Services
System initialization
If system initialization occurs while a new keycode is being instantly
activated, the Meridian 1 software will attempt to complete the keycode
activation if at all possible. However, depending on when the initialization
occurred, the software may not be able to complete keycode activation.
After the system has completed initialization, the craftsperson should print
the active ISM parameters via overlay 22. If the printed ISM parameters
match the new keycode parameters, then the Meridian 1 software completed
the keycode activation successfully. If the ISM parameters printed are the
pre-upgrade parameters:
• For options 51C, 61C, and 81C systems, the craftsperson should load
overlay 143 to verify whether the new keycode is still on the hard drive
by using the “KSHO HD” command. If the new keycode is still on the
hard drive, then the craftsperson needs to remove the keycode from the
hard drive using the “KOUT” command, and then perform the new
keycode installation process again. If the new keycode is not on the hard
drive, the craftsperson should perform the new keycode installation
process in overlay 143.
• For option 11C systems, the craftsperson should load overlay 143 and
reprogram the system upgrade process.
Feature interactions
Incremental Software Management
Instant ISM does not change the operation of the various ISM limits. Instant
ISM simply allows the user to upgrade ISM limits without having to Sysload.
IS-41 Networking
Instant ISM supports the MOB ISM parameter in the IS-41 Networking
feature.
RAN and Music Broadcast
Certain traffic reports peg the number of times the RAN and Music ISM
limits had been reached. Due to the fact that ISM limits may change instantly
(without a Sysload), a traffic report that is counting the ISM hits over a period
may be checking against two different values consecutively. Therefore, for
one single calculation period the report will have an aberration.
