CP1500
The model CP1500 CPU card is used as a host CPU. Model CP1500 can be installed in either the 400S server or 800S server. A specific slot is reserved for the CPU card in both the 400S server (slot 3) and the 800S server (slot 1), indicated by a red card cage slot.
The two Ethernet ports (hme0 and hme1) are used to connect to the FMM-APCC dual-rail LAN.

CP2140
The model CP2140 CPU card is also used as a host CPU. Model CP2140 is an upgrade to model CP1500 and can be installed in any of the following server types:
410S server 810S server 400S server (field upgrade of host CPU)
A specific slot is reserved for the CPU card in both the 4x0S servers (slot 3) and the 800S server (slot 1), indicated by a red card cage slot. When installed in a 410S server or 810S server, the CPU card has one PMC site, which is used as the connection for the PMC interface module (PIM) on the CPU rear transition card. The PMC functionality is not available when the CPU card (model CP2140) is installed in a 400S server or 800S server. Model CP2140 provides the following interfaces:
2 10/100 Mbps Ethernet 2 serial (RS-232) 1 SCSI The two Ethernet ports (eri0 and eri1) are used to connect to the FMM-APCC dual-rail LAN.
2140 CPU
CP2160
The CPU card (model CP2160) is used as a satellite CPU, which unlike the host CPU, does not require a battery to support the Real Time Clock function. The satellite CPU provides additional CPU processing power within an FMM-AP frame and reduces the amount of floor space needed to deliver that processing power. Satellites are used for memory-intensive applications. They are not used for distributed multiprocessing or for disk-intensive applications. Satellites mount the Solaris operating system via NFS from the host CPU within the same drawer.
Model CP2160 can be installed in either a 410S server, in slots 4 and 5, or in an 810S server, in slots 2 - 7. It has two PMC sites, which are used as the connection for the PIMs on the CPU rear transition card.
Model CP2160 provides the following interfaces:
2 10/100 Mbps Ethernet 1 serial (RS-232) 1 USB
The two Ethernet ports (eri0 and eri1) are used to connect to the FMMAPCC dual-rail LAN.

Alarm Card
Alarm Cards
The alarm card provide significant reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) functions. The alarm card has its own CPU, a Motorola MPC850 processor, plus its own real-time operating system and application software.
Alarm Cards
The alarm card and its accompanying software perform the following functions on the FMM-AP:
enables you to power on and off the FMM-AP from a remote console notifies an administrator in the event of a component failure gives a hard or soft reset of the CPU board interacts with the network management software on the server to indicate changes in system state
The alarm card has the following remote interfaces: 2 RS-232 serial interfaces 1 10 Mbps Ethernet port (Ethernet port 1) 1 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port (Ethernet port 2, R2 alarm card only) 1 DB-15 alarm port
R2 Alarm Card
In R2 servers, the R2 alarm card takes over the tasks of alarm, maintenance state, and environmental monitoring of drawer components that are performed by the CPU in R1 servers. In addition, the R2 alarm card can operate in either R1 mode or R2 mode.
In R1 mode, an R2 alarm card operates as follows: supports RCC WatchDog control of the CPU performs power control and executes CLI commands at the drawer level supports the R1 alarm card Remote System Control (RSC) set of commands, with minor exceptions (consolehistory and loghistory are not supported) In R2 mode, an R2 alarm card operates as follows: does not respond to RCC WatchDog control exercises power control and executes CLI commands at the slot level, to allow for separate action on the host CPU, satellite CPU, and I/O cards supports a new CLI with a new set of commands (the rscadm utility is not supported in R2 mode)

RCC Shelf
The Reliable Clustered Computing (RCC) shelf provides components that monitor, recover, and maintain the FMM-APs. Key among these components are the following:
the WatchDog pack (BMR6B) (R1 or R1SR frames in R1 mode only) the Power Converter pack (BMR5) (R1 or R1SR frames in R1 mode only) reliability software
Important! The RCC hardware components (WatchDog and Power Converter packs) are present but not used in R1SR frames that operate in R2 mode. They are not present in Universal frames. In R1SR frames that operate in R2 mode and in Universal frames, the functions previously performed by the WatchDog are performed by the servers alarm card and by new RCC integrity software.
RCC Shelf
In addition to monitoring FMM-APs, the WatchDog controls FMM-AP power. You access this power control from the FMS Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) Emergency Interface (EI). For details about the LMT EI, refer to the FMS LMT Users Guide (401-710-221).
WatchDog Interface
Each GNP-AP has an RS-232 connection to the WatchDog. NGNAP has RCC WatchDog, but evolving to FMS Alarm Card WatchDog. An AP is promoted to ACTIVE when told to go ACTIVE by the WatchDog. (During Initialization.) An AP exchanges heartbeats with the WatchDog and must heartbeat 3 times in a Heart Beat
Heartbeats may carry other information such as state information and/or sequence numbers. (But dont get too complicated, or it wont be a heartbeat.)

FMM-AP Bundle
A bundle is a collection of software packages combined in a self-extracting file. Packages, each of which includes a set of related files, are installed by executing the bundle file. This type of self-extracting installation is standard on Windows PCs but is new to the UNIX machines. The FMM-AP bundle is a collection of packages considered essential for any application that runs on an FMM-AP. For example, the FMM-AP bundle includes: device drivers, such as drivers for the Ethernet, serial, and T1/E1 interfaces utilities for setting up the .profile and shell environment for MM-AP users utilities for doing FMM-AP software updates and generic retrofits utility for FMM-AP performance monitoring
FMM-AP fms_rcc
The fms_rcc software package provides a high availability software infrastructure that works with the WatchDog to perform the following functions: monitoring and controlling the reliability of applications that run on the FMMAPs maintaining state and resource information directing fault recovery actions Important! In R1SR frames that operate in R2 mode where the WatchDog is present but not used, and in Universal frames, which do not include a WatchDog, the fms_rcc package includes new RCC integrity software that performs the functions previously performed by the Watchdog.
FMM-AP ngn_platform
The FMM-AP supports software (that is, the ngn_platform software package) provides a software infrastructure that performs the following functions:
enabling technician commands to be processed reporting status to the Element Management System (EMS)

AP unix shell
The AP OA&M commands that are issued from the unix shell on the AP are on the path, so just type them--they are: aponline takes an AP from offline to init state. This will always result in a machine reboot.. apoffline takes machine from any state to offline. This command usually takes a while, and in some unusual circumstances may fail. apstatus reports the AP RCC status, but reports only Unavailable (when pmon is not running), Offline (when the AP is offline), and Online (for all other states). A more useful status query is RCCcstat, which gives the RCC status of all APs in the cluster.
-p the name of the package(s). + A group of packages may be selected by surrounding the group in quotes, or by the repeated use of the '-p' option. -d the name of the directory where the package(s) are found. -D the name of the directory where the package(s) are put. -v the version number of the package(s). -s the server's uname (remote for appkgtrans; local for all other). -q request quiet (non-interactive) installation service. When '-d' '-D' or '-v' precedes '-p' it is global. When '-d' '-D' or '-v' comes after '-p' it is specific to that package.
apinstall unbundles software from its package and places individual files in appropriate directories on the AP. For platform and rcc packages, makes new software ready for activation. appkgrm Removes unbundled software package from the AP. Can be used to produce the effect of a commit:ap command when the AP is offline. appkgtrans Transfers software package from the OMP to the AP. apactivate Rearranges software files and directories so that the desired version becomes the running version. Usually used to complete a software update if the AP is offline. apbackout Changes the backout version of the platform software to the default version, and changes the default version to the new version. Used to backout an SU if the AP is offline. appkginfo Can be used to find out what packages have been installed. appkgchk Compares the checksums from the pkgmap file for a package with the checksums of all the installed files. apdelcellsw Used to delete installed rcs and microcell packages when they are no longer needed. Note that apbackup should be run after using this command
To activate the bundle flxactivate -v r Allows user to activate an installed bundle. It is possible that you may have nothing to activate. If needed, during the flxactivate -v the system may reboot. flxactivate -v will continue to do its work after the system comes back up.
tail f var/flx/logs/FMSsugr/latest
To find out if there are packages that need to be activated from previous bundles or if the current flxactivate is finished. Enter:
flxactivate n
output: flxactivate: NOTICE: dry run mode - system will not be changed flxactivate: There are no packages to activate or deactivate. If the output is different than that above, then flxactivate v -r needs to be run again.
