Type of disturbance Impact on the system Time duration

LTE G2 BASEBAND Disturbances One Restart will take place per G2 2-10 minutes depending on
BASEBAND in the network. configuration

Subscriber disturbances Calls in progress will be disconnected at


the G2 BASEBAND Restart. 2-10 minutes depending on
configuration
Call setup is not possible during the LTE
G2 BASEBAND Restart.

Operator disturbances All operator O&M activities towards the ~5 hours


LTE G2 BASEBAND are prohibited
during the entire implementation.

6 Prerequisites
[Any prerequisites or limitation for the new SW or upgrade]

 Local procedures and CPI should be available.

 The LTE G2 BASEBAND upgrade must be performed by experienced personnel.

 The main upgrade activities will be performed with SHM in OSS_16.2.8. The minimum
required OSS need to check “Compatibility Matrix” for details

 Extract from ALEX OSS 16.2.8 library - SHM, Software Hardware Manager, User Guide
1/1553-CNA 403 2428 Uen L7. Below table shows the current maximum batch sizes for
some operation. Therefore, to provide some “head room” for all users it is best to limit
simultaneous G2 upgrades, backup etc. to approx. 100-150.
Subject Requirement Description
SHM Parallel Operations SHM supports 200 parallel operations.
Concurrent SHM sessions It shall be possible to support at least 10 concurrent client instances of the SHM application.
Number of concurrent SHM application shall be able to maintain at least 30 upgrade packages (with the assumption that
upgrade packages the average size of an upgrade package is 800MB).
Number of topology nodes SHM application handles at least 5000 topology nodes (including subnetworks and groups) in a
single topology (ONRM or site).
Export Hardware Inventory It shall be possible to export the 200 nodes H/W inventory from the SHM GUI application within 3
minutes.
Export Software Inventory It shall be possible to export the 200 nodes S/W inventory from the SHM GUI application within 3
minutes.
SW Upgrade duration The SW upgrade (prepare+activate together) duration shall not exceed 55 minutes on single node.
Backup time It shall be possible to create the backup of 200 nodes from the SHM GUI application within 5
minutes.

 A Health Check must be performed before the SW upgrade to verify that all prerequisites for
a successful upgrade are met.

 Before upgrade to 16B GA (or later) SW, make sure that positionRef attribute in Support
System FieldReplaceableUnit MOs is configured. It refers to the cabinet where the actual
Baseband Unit FRU is located. If not configured it could have impact on power regulation
and battery charging in different cabinets. Thus all valid configurations are required to have
the “FieldReplaceableUnit:PositionRef” set, and cannot be left empty. If not set properly
alarm “Inconsistent Configuration FieldReplaceableUnit=5 (Attribute positionRef is empty, or
not valid)” will be issued. [2]

 LTE G2 BASEBAND available hard drive space and Backup amount requirements.
The disk full alarm must not be ignored (when disk usage is above 80%), it’s important
to remove unnecessary files from the disk before upgrade. [2]

 All LTE G2 BASEBAND must have Key Files (KFs) installed to activate the license
controlled functionality and node capabilities. The Installation of the LKF should be done
before upgrading the node. The activation state of, and capacity configured for licenses
present in the LRAN product to be upgraded is retained after the upgrade.

New Licenses

Codes (HWAC) for baseband capacity is introduced in Baseband Radio Nodes. As the need
for additional resources grow over time, the HWAC can be upgraded to grant additional
capacity.

Each Radio Access Technology (RAT) in the Baseband unit uses a separate HWAC,
meaning that the baseband capacity can be adjusted individually per RAT. HWACs are
coupled to the hardware unit it's activated on, and cannot be moved to other units.

In LTE, the MO class ENodeBFunction reflects granted and maximum capacity in throughput
levels, in the following MO attributes:

 ulBbCapacityNet

 ulBbCapacityMaxLimit

 dlBbCapacityNet

 dlBbCapacityMaxLimit

The alarm Resource Allocation Failure is raised when the node is unable to allocate
baseband hardware resources to a cell due to an insufficient HWAC level.

The following is the list of the new HWAC:

Feature Name License Key License MO Instance Name

Note: Incorrect setting of the system clocks of the nodes in which License Keys (LKs) are
installed may lead to failure to install the KFs. Failure to install the LKF prior to the upgrade
can result in deactivating of features or reduction of capacity after the upgrade. An alarm is
issued when the LKF is not installed. For more details, please refer the [1] “License check
procedure for LTE Upgrade”.

 A successful system upgrade requires that a valid network time is applied for LTE G2
BASEBAND.

 Make sure that a proper and working backup of the From-state SW (UP) is available

 Make sure that a proper and working Upgrade Package (UP) with its files (load modules) is
available

 External node combinations, the minimum required external node level need to check
“Compatibility Matrix” for details

The package has been verified together with EPC (Evolved Packet Core) system versions.

8 Fallback Plan
[Roll back procedure]

8.1 Criteria

The agreed FI fallback criteria decision is:

1. The upgrading to SW level encounters problems and cannot be


completed within the maintenance window.

2. Basic function (CSFB, PS call, HSDPA/EUL call, handover) not working,


which cannot be fixed by trouble shooting/emergency handling within
maintenance window.

3. OSS lost sync with LTE G2 BASEBAND after upgrading, which can’t be
fixed by troubleshooting/emergency-handling within maintenance window.

IMPORTANT COMMENTS:

1. Multiple upgrading attempts are allowed, and it will be regarded as a


successful FI if the upgrading succeeds within the maintenance window.

For example, 1st upgrading was rolled back to Rollback backup, and we
find the reason/remedy promptly, so we will do 2nd upgrade attempts if
the time can be controlled within maintenance window.

2. When basic function has a problem, or node lost sync with OSS, the first
action is troubleshooting, instead of fallback directly.

The Fallback has to be performed in cooperation with Ericsson Local Support and with customer

Following fallback procedure exist:


Fallback procedure Fallback situation
Fallback 1 This fallback is applicable if a fault occurs during, or
after, the LTE G2 BASEBAND Software Installation,
but before the LTE G2 BASEBAND Software Upgrade
has been started.
Fallback 2 This fallback is applicable if a fault occurs during, or
after, the LTE G2 BASEBAND Software Upgrade.

8.2.1 Fallback 1

Some possible reasons for a failed installation:

 Not enough disk space in the LTE G2 BASEBAND

 The LTE G2 BASEBAND restarted during installation

 FTP server access problems

 Wrong path name to the upgrade package XML-file

Reinstall the Upgrade Software


1. Reinstall the Upgrade Package using the full installation method and
continue with the rest of the upgrade procedure

If installation fails again, check Health Check result file for disc space, if
disc space is too low continue with next step, otherwise contact Ericsson
local support.

Remove an installed package


2. Remove the installed software with SHM. In the SHM window, click on
Inventory tab and select the Upgrade Package you want to delete. Click
Delete Upgrade Packages.
METHOD OF PROCEDURE 17 (18)
Prepared (Subject resp) No.

In the SHM window, click on Jobs to verify the process completed


successfully.
3. Run the Health Check.
Fallback 1 completed!

Upgrade should be re-performed after this.

8.2.2 Fallback 2
1. If the status in SHM is not Awaiting confirm, login LTE G2 BASEBAND
and check which CV is currently loaded. If the CV is SU_rev_date_time, the
upgrade is almost finished. Try to confirm the upgrade manually.
Moshell command: acc <upgrade package> confirmUpgrade
If the backup is confirmed at this step and a Final backup is created, then
perform the applicable steps after Verify the Upgrade status and create a
new Final backup if any configuration changes are done.

For a complete fallback restart on the backup that was startable before the
upgrade. Remove the failed upgrade package, see Fallback 1. It is then
possible to retry the whole procedure, starting with SW installation, using
SHM.
METHOD OF PROCEDURE 18 (18)
Prepared (Subject resp) No.

*In COM node, backup is handled by BrmBackup MO


- cvset not supported and replaced by cvre, cvre will reboot the node with
Cold restart rank
2. If upgrade failed due to other issue, for example, cell disabled after
upgrade, KPI drop a lot after upgrade, take whole DCGM and restore in the
Backup before upgrade.
Note: Fall back decision will be decided by Ericsson and CUSTOMER

Some possible reasons for a failed upgrade:

 Not enough disk space in the LTE G2 BASEBAND

 Exhaustion of heap or pool memory. Note that every load module on


disk also consumes database heap memory, which is another reason
to keep as few upgrade packages as possible on disk.

 Checksum failure. Before the upgrade begins, all checksums are


verified. Because a delta installation downloads only updated load
modules (new revisions), it is possible (but very unusual) to get a
checksum failure at the upgrade. A complete install should correct the
problem.

 HW/SW issue
