JPH0220193A - Station data/subscriber data automatic generating system at time of exchange station software revision - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To promptly generate station data/subscriber data in a new version by generating the station data/subscriber data fit for exchange station software after a revision from the existing station data/subscriber data in parallel with the execution of the exchange station software before the revision. CONSTITUTION:When an input information preparing program 12 for the new version is activated, the data are successively read from the existing station data/subscriber data 11, the individual data are converted into a form fit for the new version exchange station software, and they are delivered to the new version station data/subscriber data control program 13. When the new version station data/subscriber data 14 are generated on a main memory 1, by executing loading on the main memory 1 according to a procedure at the time of the revision from a magnetic tape device 6, the exchange station software is revised. By the exchange station software 20 in the new version generated by the main memory 1, the new version station data/subscriber data 14 are accessed, and the exchanging processing can be performed.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a stored program control type telephone switching system, and in particular, when revising exchange software for operating the telephone switching system, existing office data and subscriptions are updated. automatically generates new versions of station data and subscriber data from subscriber data.
Concerning automatic subscriber data generation method.

(Prior Art) In general, in a stored program control type telephone switching system, when the exchange rough tow 1a for operating the system is revised, existing station data and subscriber data are also replaced after the revised version. It is necessary to modify the data format, etc. to match the station software.Generation of station data and subscriber data for such new versions has traditionally been done by converting existing station data and subscriber data into a load module format. output to magnetic tape, convert this into a load module containing the new version of station data and subscriber data using an external computer system, and output it to magnetic tape.
This was done by loading this new version of the central office data addition sweat data load module into the telephone exchange system together with the new version of the central office software.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, using an external computer system, existing station data/subscriber data can be converted into new version of station data/subscriber data.
In the conventional method of converting into subscriber data, such a computer system is indispensable, and the existing station data
Generation of subscriber data load module and output to magnetic tape.

It takes time to transfer this magnetic tape to an external computer and return the magnetic tape storing the generated new version of the station data and subscriber sound data, so please promptly obtain the new version of the station data and subscriber data. That's difficult. Furthermore, since the time from the time when the old data is output to the time when the revision ends becomes long, it becomes troublesome to manage the differences associated with changes in station data and subscriber data during that time.

The present invention has been made in view of these circumstances.5
．． The purpose is to provide an automatic generation method for station data and subscriber data when updating software for exchanges, which can quickly generate new versions of station data and subscriber data based on existing station data and subscriber data. There is a particular thing.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a system for automatically generating station data subscriber data when the exchange software in a storage program control type telephone exchange system is revised, in parallel with the exchange software before the revision. The new version station data/subscriber data generating means operates to sequentially read existing station data/subscriber data and generate a new version of station data/subscriber data compatible with the revised exchange software. It is installed in the telephone exchange system itself where the central office software is revised.

[Effect]

In the method of automatically generating station data and subscriber data when updating software for exchanges according to the present invention, the new version of the station data provided in the telephone exchange system itself of the storage program control type that updates the software for exchanges.・The subscriber data generation method is the exchange software before the revision!・
To generate office data and subscriber data compatible with the revised exchange software from existing office data and subscriber data in parallel with the execution of the exchange software, that is, without interrupting exchange services.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a telephone exchange system to which the automatic exchange data/subscriber data generation method is applied when the rough 1 software for exchanges is revised according to the present invention. 3, a magnetic tape device 4, and a magnetic disk device 5. The main storage device 1 is loaded with the currently operating exchange software 10 and existing exchange data/subscriber data 1, and the existing exchange software 10 is stored under the central controller 2. Telephone exchange processing is performed while accessing existing station data/subscriber data 11.

In such a telephone exchange system, when the existing exchange data and subscriber data 11 are to be recreated for the new virgin exchange due to the revision of the existing exchange software F, TE 10, first, the operation console 3 must be operated. Then, the load module 40 containing the input information creation program for the new version and the station data/subscriber data management program for the new version is loaded onto the magnetic tape from 4 to the main storage device 1'L, and the load module 40 is loaded onto the main storage device 1. Then, create the new version manual information creation program 12 and the new version station data/subscriber data management program 1gram 13.Next, operate the console 3 to create the new version manual information creation program 12 on the main memory bag Wi. Information creation program 1
2h and the new version office data/subscriber data management program 13 are operated in parallel with the existing exchange software 10.

When the new version input information creation program 12 is started, it sequentially reads data from the existing station data/subscriber data 11 and converts each piece of data into a format compatible with the new version exchange software. This is passed to the new version station data/University of Canada data management program 13. On the other hand, the new version office data/subscriber data management program 13 assembles the individual data passed from the new version input information creation program 12 so that the new version exchange software can access it. A new version of the entire station data subscriber data 14 is generated. Note that the new version of the station data/subscriber data 14 may be output to a randomly accessible external storage device, such as the magnetic disk device 5.

As described above, when the new version of the exchange data/subscriber data 14 is generated, the new version of the exchange software By loading the row 1 module 60 containing 2
New version of station data/subscriber data 14 by 0
to perform the exchange process. Note that when the new version of the station data/subscriber data 14 is output to the magnetic disk device 5, it is loaded into a predetermined area of the main storage device 1 for use.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, in the method of automatically generating station data/subscriber data when updating the exchange software of the present invention, the existing exchange data/subscriber data can be generated in the telephone exchange system itself where the exchange software is revised. Since new versions of station data and subscriber data can be automatically generated from data, there is no need for a conventional external computer system, and new versions of station data and subscriber data can be generated quickly. becomes.
