2.1 Definition
Reconfiguration refers to the process of adding, deleting, or modifying the data of the RAN
system (consisting of at least one base station controller and one base station) after it starts
operating.
This document focuses on associated data preparation and reconfiguration procedures. The
detailed data analysis process for network optimization and the number of boards and links for
capacity expansion are determined according to actual network conditions.
This document involves the following scenarios:
l Network optimization
Network optimization is the process of adjusting and optimizing network performance
based on the data obtained from performance measurements or drive tests when the network
is in service.
l System capacity expansion
System capacity ex pansion enables the system to serve more users with hardware addition
or reconfiguration in the existing network.
l Transmission reconstruction
Transmission reconstruction is the process of changing the transmission mode of the
existing transport network.
l Network cutover
Network cutover is the process of physically or logically changing the cables or devices in
use.NOTE
This document describes only the data configuration procedure. The data planning is described in
professional service documentation.
2.2 Tools
The local maintenance terminal (LMT) and the Configuration Management Express (CME) can
be used to configure the BSC6900.
Table 2-1 describes the reconfiguration tools.
Table 2-1 Reconfiguration tools
Data Configuration Tool Function
LMT The LMT provides graphic user interfaces (GUIs) for users to
configure a single network element (NE) using MML
commands.
CME The CME provides GUIs for users to configure a single base
station controller, base station, or cell. In addition, the CME
supports batch configuration of multiple base stations and
cells by importing or exporting a configuration file.

4.1.3 Restoring the System Data
This section describes how to restore the system data using the data backup file and using the
encrypted backup file.
Prerequisites
The system data has been backed up.
Context
Restoring the BSC6900 system data will interrupt services on the BSC6900. The data on the
host will be inconsistent with the data on the OMU after the system data is restored. As a result,
the services will be greatly impacted. Therefore, you are advised to restore the system data inthe early morning hours when traffic volume is low.
As an example, the OMU in active/standby mode is used in this document. If an OMU is in
independent mode, skip operations on the standby OMU.
This chapter describes how to restore data by using the following methods:
l If an MML command is used to restore data, only the BSC6900 configuration data is
restored while other data, such as alarm data or performance data, cannot be restored.
l If the omu_backup_linker tool is used to restore data, all BSC6900 data is restored,
including configuration data, alarm data, performance data, operating logs, administrator
account, authority information, SSL configuration information, certificate information and product information.
Procedure
l Restoring the system data through an MML command
1. Run the LST BKPFILE command to query data backup files saved in the OMU
active workspace installation directory\data\backup directory.
2. Run the RTR DB command to restore configuration data on the OMU. If the backup
file is encrypted, specify Encrypted Mode and File Encryption Password.

5 Backing Up and Restoring Data by CMEThis section describes how to back up and restore data. Users can use the function to restore the
network to the state before parameters were reconfigured during network performance
optimization, if the network performance does not meet users' expectations.
Context
The CME provides the following methods for you to back up and restore data:
You create a planned data area to reconfigure network data. All the operations performed in the
planned data area are recorded and then exported as a script. This script takes effect on the live
network after it is activated by the script executor. When exporting the script, the CME generates
a fallback script. If unsatisfied with the reconfiguration, you can activate the fallback script to
restore the network to a state before the reconfiguration.
Procedure
Step 1 After you perform operations based on the process for reconfiguring data using the CME, theCME automatically generates a data fallback script. For details about the process, see Process
for Reconfiguring Data Using the CME.
Step 2 Perform steps based on Fallback in each scenario.
1. On the menu bar of the CME main window, chooseSystem > Script Executor (CME client
mode) or CME > Script Executor (U2000 client mode). The script executor window is
displayed.
2. In the Script Executor window, click the Summary tab.
3. Right-click the project whose data you want to roll back and choose Activate Fallback
Project from the shortcut menu.
You can press F1 on the CME to view section Fallback Based on Configuration Steps in the
U2000 Help for the detailed function operations and introduction.
