Embodiment
The embodiment of the invention provides a kind of network element updating method and Operation and Maintenance Unit, veneer and network element updating system.
In order to make those skilled in the art person understand the present invention program better, the embodiment of the invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with drawings and embodiments.Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the invention is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment only is the present invention's part embodiment, rather than whole embodiment.Based on the embodiment among the present invention, those of ordinary skills belong to the scope of protection of the invention not making the every other embodiment that is obtained under the creative work prerequisite.
Comprise that with the network element in the telecommunication management network situation of an Operation and Maintenance Unit (OMU) and some veneers is illustrated in the embodiment of the invention.The OMU of network element and all veneers are only preserved an operation version.Here said OMU usually, comprises main with OMU and standby OMU.The main backup that provides with OMU is provided in order to improve reliability standby OMU.The network element version upgrading comprises the edition upgrading of OMU and veneer, by the upgrading tool that redaction provides, and the version of upgrade respectively OMU and veneer, thereby the remote upgrade of realization network element.
During network element issue redaction,, go back the instrument of release upgrade simultaneously related software bag except comprising the software installation kit of issuing redaction.Upgrading tool related software bag comprises upgrade server (Server) and two parts of updating client (Client).Wherein, the software of upgrading service end (Server) part is the program of server end (Server) operation of upgrade software, and a part is moved on OMU; The software of updating client (Client) part moves at far-end, specifically can move on the computer of far-end, thereby can come OMU and veneer in the updating network element by the computer of far-end.The major function of upgrading service end (Server) is to finish the relevant actual step of upgrading, updating client (Client) is set up communication with upgrading service end (Server) and is connected, mainly be to carry out information interaction with the operator, the upgrade information that shows upgrading service end (Server), reception operator's upgrade command.
Need to prove that the updating client that redaction comprises (Client) partly, upgrade server end (Server) part can be the MML interface with OMU Software, promptly upgrading tool calls the MML order that OMU provides, and finishes escalation process.Between the upgrading service end (Server), can be self-defining communication interface between upgrading service end (Server) and the updating client (Client).
Network element updating method embodiment of the present invention can comprise as shown in Figure 2:
S201: standby OMU stops early version software program and data on it after receiving the upgrading order, and the new version software program is installed.
Standby OMU can stop early version software and data by the upgrading service end on it (Server), and new version software is installed.
Concrete, during upgrading, need use the upgrading tool software kit.The upgrading tool software kit can comprise upgrading service end (Server) software kit and updating client (Client) software kit.As previously mentioned, upgrading service end (Server) running software specifically is on the OMU in this step on network element.Updating client (Client) running software specifically can move on the computer of far-end on far-end.The operator starts upgrading service end (Server) software on the OMU by carrying out updating client (Client) software at described far-end computer.And then the upgrading service end on the described OMU (Server) software begins ROMPaq, specifically comprises the network element new version software is installed in S201, and stops early version software and data that described OMU goes up original operation.The network element new version software is installed, and the network element version that is about on the described OMU is upgraded to new network element version.
In fact, for the upgrading of network element, specifically be upgrading here for OMU, comprise to the upgrading of network element version with to the upgrading of network element data.Then S201 has finished the upgrading to the OMU Software version wherein.In the subsequent step, with the upgrading of further finishing the data of OMU.
The new version software that comprises network element version software kit and upgrading tool software kit (the upgrading tool software kit can comprise upgrading service end software kit and updating client software bag) can be wrapped in advance and pass under the main assigned catalogue with OMU and standby OMU, perhaps the new version software bag is put under the ftp server catalogue in centralized operation maintenance centre, thereby the master can download described new version software with OMU and standby OMU.Like this, described standby OMU stops early version software and the data on it, can realize that the installation procedure of described new version software generally can have the function that stops and unloading early version software and data by the installation procedure that calls new version software.
At the computer of carrying out updating operation, on the far-end computer of promptly saying previously, start updating client.Updating client software generally is an executable file, can utilize upgrade client to bring in updating network element.The operator can import address information, user name, password and the upgrading relevant information of the network element that will upgrade on updating client, start escalation process.Concrete, in the escalation process, updating client connects with OMU and standby OMU with main, for example sets up MML and connects, and issues the order that starts upgrading service end and gives main with OMU and standby OMU.The main MML that sets up with the upgrading service end on OMU and the standby OMU is connected, and follow-uply can send and receive order.The operator is after updating client starts escalation process, and is main with OMU and each self-starting upgrading service end software of standby OMU.Main with after the startup of the upgrading service end on OMU and the standby OMU, set up communication mutually and connect.
Main receive the upgrading order that updating client sends with OMU and standby OMU after, begin the escalation process of network element by upgrading service end.
After upgrading service end on the active and standby OMU receives orders, can also comprise: whether the master satisfies promotion condition with the upgrading service end inspection on the OMU is main with OMU and standby OMU, and the upgrading service end on the standby OMU checks whether standby OMU satisfies promotion condition.If the situation that does not satisfy promotion condition is arranged, promptly lead the situation that does not satisfy promotion condition with any existence among OMU and the standby OMU, then point out client to withdraw from escalation process, otherwise, have only the master all to satisfy promotion condition, just can proceed escalation process with OMU and standby OMU.
And then the upgrading service end on the standby OMU stops software and the data that standby OMU goes up early version, calls the installation procedure of redaction, thus the software and the data of unloading early version.The installation procedure of redaction can unload the software of early version, and the software of redaction can also be installed.
Then, the upgrading service end on the standby OMU can be installed to new version software on the standby OMU by the installation procedure of redaction installation kit.
S202: the master that the upgrading service end of standby OMU will back up downloads on the standby OMU with the early version data on the OMU, and the master that will download is with the data of the upgrading of the described early version data on OMU redaction.
Among the S201 of front, described standby OMU has finished the edition upgrading to the network element software on it, promptly is upgraded to new version software by the network element software that redaction is installed.
The front is mentioned, and OMU upgrades except the upgrading to the network element software version, also comprises the upgrading to network element data.Among the S202, described standby OMU promptly is the upgrading of finishing data.
The master can back up main with the data on the OMU with OMU.Standby OMU at first downloads described backed up data from main with OMU.Be in order to guarantee the data and main consistent with on the OMU on the standby OMU like this.
Here, it is the data of early version that described master goes up backed up data with OMU, after the described early version data of spare OMU downloads, described early version data need be upgraded to the redaction data.
Main upgrade server end backup with OMU is main with the early version data on the OMU, the upgrading service end of standby OMU will be led the described early version data that upward back up with OMU and download on the standby OMU, and then, the upgrading service end of standby OMU is called data updating method, the master who downloads can be upgraded to the data of redaction with the data of the early version on the OMU.
S203: after standby OMU started the OMU Software of redaction, standby OMU switched with OMU with main.
The upgrading service end of standby OMU starts the OMU Software of redaction, and OMU Software operates in stand-by state after starting automatically.
At this moment, the master before promptly switching uses OMU, and operation is early version software and data on it, and standby OMU has upgraded for the software and the data of redaction by aforementioned S201 and S202.Because active and standby OMU goes up the non-uniformity of software versions of operation, mainly can not be synchronized on the standby OMU, thereby standby OMU can keep moving it on is the software and the data of redaction with the data on the OMU.
By above-mentioned S201 and S202, standby OMU has finished the upgrading of software version and data.Among the S203, standby OMU need switch with OMU with main.
Concrete, here, the upgrading service end of standby OMU is sent the order that active and standby OMU switches to main with OMU Software, and the master switches with OMU and standby OMU.
Master after switching uses OMU, promptly is the standby OMU before switching, the just aforementioned standby OMU that finishes network element version and data upgrading.Standby OMU after switching promptly is that the master before switching uses OMU, and described as described above, it does not carry out the upgrading of software version or data, thereby still moves early version software and data on it.
Need to prove that in the reversed process, upgrading service end may be interrupted (as interrupt MML connect) with OMU with being connected of software on the standby OMU with main.Treat main with OMU and standby OMU switch finish after, upgrade server is connected (as the MML connection) with leading to rebulid with software on the standby OMU with OMU.
Like this, the master has also changed the state of corresponding OMU accordingly with the upgrading service end on OMU and the standby OMU.After the master switched successfully with OMU and standby OMU, the master had operated under the redaction situation with OMU.
In fact, the upgrading of network element comprises the upgrading of OMU and the upgrading of veneer in this embodiment.Concrete, comprise that OMU goes up the upgrading of software version and data, and the upgrading of software program on the veneer and data.
So, by S201, S202 and S203, the master after switching is with the upgrading of having finished software version and data on the OMU, and veneer and switch after standby OMU remain early version, also do not finish upgrading.
The communication of above-mentioned and follow-up network element each module in carrying out escalation process connects, specifically can be with reference to shown in the figure 3.
S204: the master after switching goes up loading procedure and data from main with OMU with the Loading Control word that OMU revises veneer after showing veneer resets.
In this step, concrete, the master after switching orders with the MML that the upgrading service end on the OMU (being the upgrading service end on the former standby OMU) can at first issue formatted data, and the master after switching can dissolve the data that veneer needs by form with OMU.
Master after switching issues the order of revising veneer Loading Control word with the master of the upgrading service end on the OMU after switching with OMU, goes up loading procedure and data from main with OMU after showing veneer resets.Described Loading Control word can showing veneer reset the back from OMU or from the FLASH of veneer self Control Parameter of load software and data.Here, described Loading Control word showing veneer back main after switch that reset with OMU loading procedure and data, but do not write FLASH on the veneer.This is because it is slower to write FLASH speed, has increased the single board starting time, has so also just increased net element business break period.Do not write the FLASH on the veneer, can reduce the time that board resetting needs, thereby reduced the time that net element business interrupts.
Only revise the Loading Control word of veneer, program and data files is not loaded into the FLASH on the veneer, can also prevent that the loading command of new early version veneer or load document from having modification.This is because after the OMU upgrading, and veneer still is early version before resetting, if loading command has been revised, the veneer of early version possibly can't be discerned.
Need to prove that also the board software of early version is carried out loading command and might be made mistakes, and the order of modification Loading Control word can not change generally.Wherein, the Loading Control word as previously mentioned, is used for showing veneer from OMU or from FLASH loading procedure and data.And loading command refers generally to example as having increased veneer, or has increased software that loads and so on, and loading command is general than being easier to modification.
S205: the master after switching sends the order that showing veneer resets with OMU, main with OMU loading procedure and data after the board resetting after switch.
After all board resettings, boot that can be by veneer self is from OMU loading procedure and data and start.As previously mentioned, because this process is not write FLASH, veneer can very fast loading be finished program and data, and starts rapidly.And because boot generally can not be modified, therefore, new version software is as long as assurance to the compatibility of boot, just can guarantee that veneer escalates into merit.
S206: with loading described program and data the OMU behind veneer FLASH, the master after switching revises the Loading Control word of veneer for to load from FLASH with OMU to veneer from main.
Among the S205, can load described program and data the main OMU of using after switching after the board resetting, and not write the FLASH of veneer self as described above.Described veneer also can download to described loading procedure and data among the FLASH of veneer self after finishing and loading described program and data.As previously mentioned, load described program and data the main OMU of using in the board resetting process after switching, this process does not download to described program and data among the FLASH of veneer self, can reduce the time of writing FLASH, and described veneer finish load described program and data after, just with described program and data load FLASH to veneer self.
Need to prove that all veneers all start success, after professional the foundation, generally can also comprise: main net element business checking of upgrading with the prompting of the upgrading service end on OMU user.
If business is proved to be successful, then continue escalation process.Like this, can be in the FLASH of veneer with the program of veneer and data load.The program of redaction and data are write among the FLASH, and early version will be capped.
Need to prove that the FLASH of above-mentioned veneer is a kind of local storage medium of veneer, it has high reliability features, therefore is widely used in the veneer.But, also can be the storage medium of other type here.
Veneer with loading described program and data the OMU behind veneer FLASH, has had the program and the data of redaction from main among the FLASH of described veneer self.Further, the Loading Control word of revising veneer is to load from FLASH, like this, can directly go up loading procedure and data after the board resetting from FLASH, be follow-up veneer can be directly loads redaction from the FLASH of self software and data, can accelerate the toggle speed after the follow-up board resetting like this.
From said process as can be seen, veneer only needs the software and the data of a version of storage in whole process, and therefore the software and the data that do not need to store early version can save memory space.
And, from foregoing, it can also be seen that, the standby OMU before switching, the main OMU that uses after just switching also only keeps the software and the data of a version in whole process, so also can save memory space.
And then the upgrading service end on the standby OMU after switching stops and unloading the early version OMU Software, and the redaction OMU Software is installed again, starts the redaction OMU Software of installing afterwards.The OMU Software of redaction operates in stand-by state after starting, begin with switch after the master carry out synchronously with OMU.The upgrading of upgrading service end prompting updating client is finished.After confirming on the updating client, after switching main with OMU with switch after standby OMU on upgrading service end withdraw from automatically, client also withdraws from subsequently automatically.
After the above-mentioned steps, if the upgrading failure can also comprise:
Main switch with OMU and standby OMU, the master after switching return back to early version earlier with OMU, Reset Board again, and veneer return back to early version from OMU loading procedure and data.The software kit of early version being uploaded under the assigned catalogue of standby OMU (also can specify early version to deposit the path in upgrading tool, OMU Software is downloaded from the centralized operation maintenance server by FTP, perhaps last time is during network element updating, the software kit of early version be retained in the upgrading catalogue under, directly specify this catalogue also can), the upgrading service end of standby OMU stops OMU Software, unload the software of redaction again, reinstall the OMU Software of early version, restart OMU Software again, be i.e. the standby OMU Software of rollback.
