Software Increment Release Notes
================================
Increment ID:   I17A1905
Release:        AN1905
Date created:   01-21-2005
Increment Type: OPC
Title: OPC: OPC INM ANX display and other fixes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This Increment addresses the following issues. See below for more
details.
1. ANXs do not show consistently in the same place in INM display.
2. Provisioning Manager failure to open at times.
3. INM Connection Manager failure to open with large numbers of
   connections.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ANXs do not show consistently in the same place in INM display.
* Description: INM view of ANXs change each time the OPC is rebooted.
In AN1905, ANX voice modules will be renumbered on every OPC restart,
Or any action which would cause the "TFED MSR" to restart. INM saves 
these numbers and re-uses them for each OPC session.  This increment 
changes the OPC to also keep the ANX numbers constant over OPC 
restarts.  The previously assigned numbers are no longer available
at the OPC.  After the application of this increment, one of two 
actions will be required by the customer to synchronize the OPC and 
INM:
 a. Re-arrange the INM ANX view by rebuilding the window, or
 b. Use a new tool at the OPC to reassign the ANX numbers.
Care must be taken to reassign these numbers correctly.  The customer
must determine these numbers from his INM view.
The OPC tool is located at /iws/tfe/tfetst.
To obtain help on the tool:   /iws/tfe/tfetst -h
To renumber the ANXs:         /iws/tfe/tfetst -r
Contact Zhone GSS for questions/issues when running this tool.
* Pre-Increment Impact and work-around:  Rearrange INM ANXs within
the view to the proper place.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Provisioning Manager failure to open at times.
* Description: The Provisioning Manager fails to open at times.  This
increment fixes all the known causes for the tool not to open.
* Pre-Increment Impact and work-around: Prior to this increment, the
Provisioning Manager may fail to open.  Direct TL1 commands can be
used to provision facilities, DS0 services and manage cross-connects
in AN1905.  Refer to document 323-3001-190 for the TL1 users guide.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
3. INM Connection Manager failure to open with large numbers of
connections.
* Description:  The INM Connection Manager would fail to open once
a significant number of connections were added.  This change allows
the INM Connection Manager to open with more connections.  Contact
GSS for finetuning of these changes if problems are still
encountered after applying this increment.
* Pre-Increment Impact and work-around: Connections would not be
able to be queried, deleted, or added from the INM Connection Manager.
OPC Connection Manager can be used to perform these actions on the
local OPC.
