2 Introduction to MBTS Commissioning In
Typical Scenarios
This section describes the solutions of MBTS commissioning in typical scenarios.
Introduction to Scenarios of MBTS Commissioning
The scenarios of MBTS commissioning increase with the expansion of the MBTS application
scope.
lThe base station starts to provide services of only one mode.
In this scenario, the base station is physically an MBTS when it is deployed. However, the
base station provides services of only one mode because of insufficient resources, and the
base station does not provide services of the other mode until resources are sufficient.
lThe base station starts to provide services of two modes.
In this scenario, when a base station is deployed, it is physically an MBTS and does not
provide services of the two modes. Now, the base station starts to provide services of two
modes.
lThe base station has been providing services of one mode and now starts to provide
services of the other mode.
In this scenario, when a base station is deployed, it is physically an MBTS and has been
providing services of one mode. Therefore, the base station starts to provide services of the
other mode.
NOTE
SRAN 5.0 supports three modes of an MBTS: GU, GL, and UL, and the UL mode supports only the co-
cabinet solution.
Solutions of MBTS Commissioning
Table 2-1 describes solutions of MBTS commissioning in typical scenarios in terms of the
feature and mode of MBTS commissioning.

Table 2-1 Recommended solutions of MBTS commissioning
No. Commissioning Scenario Commissioning Solution
1
The base
station starts to
provide
services of only
one mode.
No co-
transmission
Configure the data of the BBU
subrack and main control board of
the base station that does not
provide services, and then
commission the base station that
provides services. For details, see 3
Procedure for Commissioning
the Base Station that Starts to
Provide Services of One Mode.
2Co-
transmission
Assume that the modes of an MBTS
are categorized into mode A and
mode B and that mode A shares its
transmission routes with mode B. In
this case, the solution of MBTS
commissioning is as follows:
lIf the base station starts to
provide services of mode A, see
the preceding commissioning
solution without co-
transmission.
lIf the base station starts to
provide services of mode B,
configure the base station in
mode A and then commission the
base station in mode B. For
details, see 3 Procedure for
Commissioning the Base
Station that Starts to Provide
Services of One Mode.
3
One scenario: The base station
starts to provide services of two
modes. The other scenario: The
base station has been providing
services of one mode and starts to
provide services of the other
mode.
MBTS
commissioning
using the
M2000
When the
network
transmission is
normal, you can
commission an
MBTS by using
the M2000 in a
central
equipment
room.
lFor a base
station in GU
mode: Use
the plug-
and-play
commissioni
ng function.

This section describes the procedure for commissioning the base station that starts to provide
services of one mode.
Prerequisites
Before commissioning the MBTS, the MBTS, MBSC, and M2000 must meet following
requirements:
lThe MBTS hardware such as the cabinets, cables, antenna system, and auxiliary devices,
is installed and passes the installation check. In addition, check that the MBTS is powered
on and passes the power-on check.
lThe hardware of the MBSC is installed and commissioned, and the system works properly.
The negotiation data of the MBTS to be commissioned is configured and recorded.
lThe M2000 server is installed with an adaptation layer whose version matches the version
of the MBTS to be commissioned.
Commissioning Procedure Without Co-transmission
Assume that the MBTS supports mode A and mode B, that co-transmission is unavailable to the
two modes, and that services of only mode A starts to be provided.
NOTE
The alarm Inter-System Communication Failure may be reported when the base station in mode A is
commissioned, and the alarm RRU Network Topology Type and Configuration Mismatch， Inter-
System Control Rights Conflict may be reported in a dual-mode scenario. These alarms do not affect the
commissioning and services, and therefore you can shield them manually.
lThe MBTS works in GU or GL mode and GSM services are provided at first. Or, the
MBTS works in UL mode and services of one mode are provided at first.

4 Commissioning the MBTS in GU Mode on
the M2000
About This Chapter
The M2000 provides the plug-and-play commissioing function for GU MBTSs. This function
is applicable to GU MBTSs in the following three scenarios: Both a GBTS and a NodeB are
deployed, a NodeB is newly deployed while a GBTS is running normally, and a GBTS is newly
deployed while a NodeB is running normally. The M2000 commissions multiple GU MBTSs
simultaneously in a central equipment room, including establishing OM channels, upgrading
software and configuring data, and verifying alarms, services, and sites. In addition, the
M2000 provides a fault diagnosis entrance to help users locate faults quickly.
4.1 Procedure for MBTS Commissioning in GU Mode on the M2000
When the network transmission is available and works normally, you can commission a GU
MBTS using the plug-and-play commissioning function on the M2000 in a central equipment
room.
4.2 Preparing for MBTS Commissioning
This section describes how to prepare for MBTS commissioning.
4.3 Creating an MBTS Commissioning Task
This chapter describes how to create an MBTS commissioning task. After completing MBTS
commissioning preparations, you can create an MBTS commissioning task on the M2000 and
enable the M2000 to commission the MBTS automatically.
4.4 Manually Intervening the MBTS Transmission Detection
This section describes how to manually intervene GBTS transmission during MBTS
commissioning. By intervening GBTS transmission, you can query the real-time status of the
E1/T1 port to ensure that the GBTS transmission is normal and that you can proceed with the
GBTS deployment.
4.5 Automatic Commissioning of the MBTS on the M2000
After creating the MBTS commissioning task, the M2000 starts to commission the MBTS
automatically.

4.5 Automatic Commissioning of the MBTS on the M2000
After creating the MBTS commissioning task, the M2000 starts to commission the MBTS
automatically.
Table 4-4 describes the automatic commissioning procedures of the MBTS. If a commissioning
procedure is normal, the M2000 proceeds with the next commissioning procedure. If the
commissioning procedure is not normal, the M2000 terminates the commissioning and reminds
the user of the situation.
Table 4-4 Automatic commissioning procedures of the MBTS
Commissioning
Procedure
Description
Establishing OM
channel automatically
The M2000 can automatically establishes an OM channel with the
base station based on the deployment list, provided that the
transport network is functional. Then, the M2000 commissions the
MBTS and performs other OM tasks through this channel.
After detecting the MBTS, the M2000 automatically sets Status of
the MBTS to Processing, such that no alarms reported by the
MBTS during the commissioning procedure are displayed on the
M2000 alarm interface and the normal networking monitoring is
not affected.
After the OM channel is established, you can start the automatic
commissioning of the MBTS by creating a commissioning task on
the M2000.
NOTE
You can proceed with the next step only when the OM channel for both
GSM and UMTS is established.

Commissioning
Procedure
Description
Checking GBTS OML
automatically
The M2000 automatically checks whether the OML between the
GBTS and its homing BSC is normal.
lIf the link is normal and you do not set manual intervention when
creating the commissioning task, the M2000 proceeds with the
next procedure automatically.
lIf the link is not normal and you do not set manual intervention
when creating the commissioning task, the M2000 terminates
the commissioning automatically. In this situation, you need to
solve the problem first.
lIf you have set manual intervention when creating the
commissioning task, you need to decide whether to proceed with
the next commissioning procedure regardless whether the link
is normal or not.
Automatic software
upgrade
Based on the target version information included in the deployment
list, the M2000 automatically checks whether the target software
version is consistent with that on the base station. If the software
version is inconsistent, then the upgraded is failed.
NOTE
lIf the USB disk is used for the base station upgrade, ensure that the
software version and configuration data of the base station are upgraded
to the target ones. After confirmed, the M2000 skips this step and directly
proceeds with the automatic software commissioning.
lFor the NodeB, the M2000 downloads the target software and data
configuration file from the server to the NodeB, and completes software
upgrade and configuration activation automatically.
lFor the GBTS, the M2000 instructs the BSC to start upgrading the GBTS
software, and the GBTS downloads the target version from the BSC and
upgrades the software. After the GBTS software is upgraded and the
GBTS is reset, the GBTS automatically sends a request to the BSC for
loading configuration data.
lIn scenarios where both GBTS and NodeB need to be deployed, only the
MBTS upgrade as a whole is supported. In scenarios where only one
RAT needs to be deployed, perform the upgrade individually for the
RAT. In the preceding scenarios, the upgrade is not supported for
unmatched versions.
lOnly when the software upgrade and configuration activation are
completed for both GBTS and NodeB, the commission can go to next
stage.

Procedure
Description
Automatic software
commissioning
During NodeB software commissioning, the M2000 performs fault
diagnose to ensure that the service check is performed normally. It
is carried out automatically, and you need to focus only on faults.
The M2000 displays all reported alarms on the monitor interface
and provides an easy fault diagnose entry to help you locate faults
fast and provide troubleshooting suggestions.
The software commissioning on the GBTS side involves the sub-
processes. When detecting that the cell initialization of the base
station is complete and there is an available cell for use, the
M2000 proceeds with the next phase automatically.
lCheck cell initialization status of the base station.
lQuery base station information.
lCheck high-precision VSWR. This operation is optional, based
on the setting done when the commissioning task is created.
lMonitor base station alarms.
lCheck cell serviceability status.
NOTE
In the software commissioning phase, you can view base station alarms and
perform fault diagnose as required, and then take actions accordingly to
solve problems.
Automatic service
check
The M2000 automatically collects the following CS-related and
PS-related counters of the NE to check whether the NE is operating
normally. When non-zero values exist for all the counters, the
service check is passed; otherwise, the service check phase is
always sustained.
Completing
commissioning
After service check is completed, the deployment task state is
displayed as Confirm Completed Deployment. After you confirm
that the commissioning task is completed, the M2000 automatically
cancels the Testing state of the MBTS and then proceeds with the
site location check.
NOTE
Site location check is the process of checking whether the ESN reported by
the site is consistent with that included in the deployment list. The purpose
is to check for situations where the USB disk is inserted incorrectly in IP
networking mode.

5.2.3 Creating an eNodeB Commissioning Task
After the preparations for eNodeB commissioning are complete, create the eNodeB
commissioning task on the M2000. This task will be automatically performed by the M2000.
The M2000 supports automatic commissioning of multiple eNodeBs.
Prerequisite
lThe M2000 server and client are connected and are running properly. You have logged in
to the M2000 client.
lIf the eNodeB and M2000 server are not in the same network segment, the router or switch
between the eNodeB and M2000 server must be configured as DHCP Relay.

NOTE
lIf there is no security GW, you should set the IP address of the DHCP server of the M2000 on the
DHCP Relay.
lIf there is a security GW, you should set the IP address of the public DHCP server on the DHCP Relay.
In addition, set the IP address of the DHCP server of the M2000 on the security GW.
lThe eNodeB name, eNodeB ID, and ESN are collected.
lThe eNodeB is powered on.
lThe software and files required for eNodeB automatic deployment are ready.
Context
After the eNodeB is powered on, it sends the DHCP message to the M2000 requesting for the
OM IP address. The DHCP message contains the eNodeB ESN and the GPS information of the
eNodeB. If the eNodeB ID is not preset and a laptop is available on site, you can run the MOD
ENODEB command to set the eNodeB ID on the LMT. If the eNodeB ID is successfully set,
the DHCP message will contain the eNodeB ID.
The EDS file, which is the self-configuration file, includes the eNodeB ID, electronic serial
number (ESN), and GPS information about the eNodeB. This file is used to be bound to the
eNodeB. The eNodeB ID is unique and is used to identify an eNodeB. In an EDS file, the eNodeB
ID is mandatory and the GPS information and ESN are optional.
The self-configuration data imported to the M2000 is bound with the ESN automatically in the
following scenarios:
lIf the EDS file contains the ESN of the eNodeB, the ESN reported by the eNodeB and the
imported self-configuration data on the M2000 are automatically bound in the case that the
ESN reported by the eNodeB is consistent with the ESN in the EDS file.
lIf the M2000 receives the message containing the eNodeB ID, the imported self-
configuration data and the ESN reported by the eNodeB are automatically bound after the
mapping between the eNodeB ID reported by the eNodeB and the eNodeB ID in the EDS
file.
lIf the M2000 receives the message containing the eNodeB location information, which is
within the error of 100 m compared with the latitude and longitude predefined in the EDS
file, the imported self-configuration data and the ESN reported by the eNodeB are
automatically bound after the mapping between the GPS information reported by the
eNodeB and the location information in the EDS file.
If automatic binding fails, the information about the new eNodeB will be displayed in the
Reported ESN tab page below the eNodeB Auto Deployment tab page. The user can obtain
the ESN/eNodeB ID from the field engineer, and then binds the ESN/eNodeB ID and the
imported self-configuration data.
Procedure

Table 5-2 Item list of the NodeB commissioning procedure
Commissionin
g Item
Description
Detecting the
OM channel
When the transmission network is functional, the M2000 automatically
sets up the OM channel with the NodeB according to the NodeB
deployment list. The OM channel is used to commission and maintain the
NodeB.
After the OM channel is set up, the M2000 automatically sets Special
Status of the NodeB to Testing, so that the invalid alarms can be shielded
during commissioning.
Upgrading the
software and
configuration
According to the version information in the NodeB deployment list, the
M2000 automatically checks whether the current NodeB version is the
same as the target version. If the current NodeB version differs from the
target software version, the target software and data configuration file are
downloaded from the server to the NodeB and activated automatically.
NOTE
If the USB disk is used for the upgrade on the NodeB side, and the NodeB software
and data configuration file are upgraded to the target version, the M2000 skips this
step and proceeds with the automatic software commissioning.
Monitoring the
software
commissioning
The purpose of software commissioning is to verify the services. Software
commissioning starts automatically. During the commissioning, only
faults need to be noted. All the reported alarms are displayed on the
monitoring interface of the M2000. In addition, the fault diagnosis access
that facilitates quick fault location is available, and the associated handling
suggestions are provided.
Verifying the
services
When detecting that the logical cell of the NodeB is available, the
M2000 starts service verification. The M2000 determines whether service
verification succeeds according to key performance counters, and then
displays the results.
Completing the
NodeB
deployment
After a NodeB passes the service verification, the status of the
commissioning task changes to Waiting for Acknowledgement. When
the user acknowledges the completion of commissioning tasks, the
M2000 automatically cancels the Testing state of the NodeB and verifies
the NodeB location.
NOTE
lCancel the Testing state of the NodeB and resume the alarm reporting of the
NodeB.
lNodeB location verification refers to the process in which the M2000
automatically checks whether the ESN reported by the NodeB is the same as the
ESN in the NodeB deployment list. Through the NodeB location verification,
you can check whether the USB disk for upgrade is the correct one in IP
networking mode.

5.5.3 Viewing the GBTS Service Verification Results
This section describes how to view the GBTS service verification results. After the automatic
service verification starts, the M2000 automatically collects the performance data related to
GBTS CS and PS services and checks whether the GBTS services are normal. If the service
verification persists, it is recommended that you view the service verification results to learn the
actual performance data. This ensures the commissioning success.
Prerequisite
The automatic service verification already starts, and you have not confirmed the completion of
the GBTS commissioning yet.
Context
During the service verification, the performance measurement period is the shortest
measurement period supported by the GBTS. By default, the shortest measurement period is 15
minutes. The involved performance counters are as follows:
lCS services: SDCCH Verification and TCH Verification

Issue 02 (2010-07-30)
lPS services: Uplink GPRS Verification and Downlink GPRS Verification
If every performance counter related to the CS and PS services is once displayed as a value that
is not 0, the M2000 considers the service verification a success, and the commissioning task
automatically switches to Confirming completed. Otherwise, the service verification persists.
NOTE
The performance data collected for service verification is saved on theM2000 for 14 days. After 14 days,
the M2000 automatically deletes the data to release system resources.
Procedure
Step 1 Choose Configuration > Auto Deployment > GBTS Auto Deployment to open the GBTS
Auto Deployment window.
Step 2 On the GBTS List tab page, select one or multiple commissioning tasks, and then click .
Alternatively, right-click the tasks, and then choose Open Service Verification Window from
the shortcut menu.
For details about the service verification window, see 5.12.1 Interface Description: GBTS
Commissioning.
Step 3 View the service verification results and perform corresponding operations.
The accumulation values of the counters, which are collected in the time range between the start
of the service verification and the restart of the commissioning or the confirmation of the
commissioning completion, are displayed in the service verification window.
lIf is displayed in each counter value, you can infer that the GBTS service verification
succeeds. In this case, you can check and confirm the completion of the commissioning. For
details, see 5.11.1 Confirming a GBTS Commissioning Task.
lIf is displayed in the value of a certain counter, you can infer that the services related to
this counter are running abnormally. In this case, you need to rectify the fault. If the system
output indicates that the PS services are abnormal but no PS services exist actually, you can
confirm the completion of the commissioning.
----End
5.5.4 Restarting a GBTS Commissioning Task
This section describes how restart a GBTS commissioning task that is still in progress according
to the actual requirement. A GBTS commissioning task in progress indicates that it is not in
Waiting or Completed status. If you restart a commissioning task, all commissioning operations
that are already performed are cleared, and the commissioning restarts from the OML detection.

About This Chapter
This chapter describes how to upgrade software and configure data using a USB disk, check the
operating status of the MBTS hardware, and rectify the MBTS hardware faults (if any) in time
at the MBTS. This section also describes how to check the operating status of the MBTS on the
M2000.
6.1 Procedure for Commissioning the MBTS by Using USB and M2000
At the local end of the MBTS, you can use a USB disk to upgrade the MBTS software and data,
and check whether the MBTS hardware status is normal according to the board status and LED
status, to locate and rectify faults in time. At the remote end of the MBTS, you can perform fault
diagnosis on the MBTS and verify services of the MBTS on the M2000.
6.2 Preparing the USB Disk for Local Commissioning
The USB disk should be ready before it is used for local commissioning. The preparation of the
USB disk for local commissioning varies according to the base station mode. Therefore, you
must prepare the USB disk based on the mode of the base station to be commissioned.
6.3 Upgrading Software and Configuring Data by Using the USB Disk
You can locally upgrade software and configure data of a base station by using the USB disk on
the base station side.
6.4 Checking the Status of the LEDs and Rectifying the Faults
This section describes how to check the operating status of the LEDs according to the states of
the LEDs on the modules of the base station.
6.5 Set the Download Control Right
If the BTS is working in the co-module scenario, the download control right needs to be set. The
system with the download control right upgrades the co-modulated RRU3908/MRFU and the
USCU software during software upgrade.

6.1 Procedure for Commissioning the MBTS by Using USB
and M2000
At the local end of the MBTS, you can use a USB disk to upgrade the MBTS software and data,
and check whether the MBTS hardware status is normal according to the board status and LED
status, to locate and rectify faults in time. At the remote end of the MBTS, you can perform fault
diagnosis on the MBTS and verify services of the MBTS on the M2000.
Prerequisite
Before you commission the MBTS, the MBTS, RNC, and M2000 must meet following
requirements:
lThe MBTS hardware such as the cabinets, cables, antenna system, and auxiliary devices,
is installed and passes the installation check. The NodeB is powered on and passes the
power-on check.
lThe controller hardware is installed and commissioned, and the system works properly.
The negotiation data of the MBTS to be commissioned is configured and recorded.
lThe M2000 is commissioned, it is connected to the corresponding controller, and the
configuration synchronization is completed.
The USB disk for local commissioning should be ready for this commissioning mode. For details,
see 6.2 Preparing the USB Disk for Local Commissioning.
NOTE
lThe USB disk type and the files saved in the USB disk vary according to the base station mode. Prepare
a USB disk accordingly.
lFiles required for both modes must be saved to the USB disk when base stations of two modes are
deployed.

NOTE
lThe priority of a mode does not need to be considered during the MBTS commissioning.
lWhen a base station supporting two modes is deployed,
lThe two modes must be upgraded separately if only one USB disk is available for the upgrade on
site.
lThe two modes can be upgraded simultaneously by inserting the two USB disks into the USB ports
on the main control boards in the two modes if two USB disks are available for the upgrade on site.
lIf the MBTS that works in the co-module scenario is not connected with Base Station Controler, to
upgrade with a USB disk locally will raise the Inter-System Control Rights Conflict alarm. This
alarm will not affect the commissioning and the services. After the BTS connects with Base Station
Controler, manually sets the download control right, which will clear this alarm.
Procedure
lLocal end of the MBTS
1. Insert the USB disk into the USB port on the panel of the main control board in specific
mode. Choose an appropriate operation based on the active software version and data
configuration of the MBTS.
If... Then...
The active software version and data
configuration are inconsistent with
those in the USB disk,
Go to step Step 2.
The active software version and data
configuration are consistent with those
in the USB disk,
Remove the USB disk, because the
software and data of the base station in
the specific mode have been upgraded.
2. The base station automatically upgrades the software and data. For details, see 6.3
Upgrading Software and Configuring Data by Using the USB Disk.
3. Check whether the MBTS hardware is normal according to the LED status. For details,
see 6.4 Checking the Status of the LEDs and Rectifying the Faults.
4. Remove the USB disk before leaving the site.

and then commission the base station of the other mode. The two modes are equal in priority.
1. Wait till the transmission is available.
2. Optional: If the MBTS is working in the co-module scenario, the download control
right needs to be set. During the commissioning on the M2000, the M2000
automatically compares the software version of the system with the download control
right to the software version of the current co-module MRFU/RRU3908, and check
their consistency. If the versions are not consistent, the MBTS automatically upgrade
the MRFU/RRU3908. For detail of setting the download control right, see 6.5 Set the
Download Control Right.
3. Create a commissioning task on the M2000. For details, see 5.2 Creating a

CAUTION
1. Data configuration through a USB disk is applicable only to the BTS supporting IP over FE
or IP over E1.
2. Data configuration through a USB disk can be used with the software upgrade using a USB
disk. The prerequisite is that the active BTS software supports the data configuration using
a USB disk.
3. A USB disk contains the configuration file of only a BTS.
4. Ensure that the route from the BTS to the BSC is configured on the Web LMT before the
conversion into the configuration file. Thus, the related MML commands and parameters
have the route information and are converted into the configuration file containing the route
information.
Procedure
Step 1 Prepare the USB disk with a LED. The requirements are as follows: when there is no read or
write operation on the USB disk, the LED on the USB disk is ON; when there is any read or
write operation on the USB disk, the LED on the USB disk is blinking.
Step 2 Check the compatibility of the USB disk with the NodeB. Do as follows to test the USB disk:
Insert the USB disk into the USB port on the WMPT of a GBTS that runs normally, and wait
for 3 seconds. If the LED on the USB disk blinked once, it indicates that the USB disk is
functional. If the USB disk fails the preceding test, change the USB disk.
Step 3 Obtain the software package for the upgrade.
1. Three days before the upgrade, visit the website http://support.huawei.com and click
Software to download the software package.

6.3.2 Upgrading the NodeB Software and Downloading the Data
Configuration File (on the NodeB Side)
The NodeB supports direct software and data configuration file downloading from the USB disk.
After the downloading, the NodeB automatically activates the software, and then resets.
Prerequisite
lThe NodeB passes a power-on status check and is powered on.
lThe USB disk for local commissioning is ready. For details, see 6.2.2 Arranging the USB
Disk for Local NodeB Commissioning.
Context
When the USB disk is plugged into the corresponding port on the WMPT in the BBU3900, the
BBU3900 automatically detects the USB disk and installs the USB disk driver. After the
installation, the NodeB automatically reads the software and data configuration file in the fixed
directories of the USB disk and verifies their names and formats.
When the system reads the software package and data configuration file, the NodeB checks the
consistency between the active software version and configuration data and the software version
and configuration data in the USB disk. If they are inconsistent, the software and configuration
upgrade is automatically started. If they are consistent, the upgrade is not performed.
Note the following situations when the software and configurations are upgraded from the USB
disk:
lBy default, the NodeB downloads the software and data configuration file from the USB
disk by configuration. The NodeB also supports the supplementary download. For example,
When the RRU is not connected to the BBU3900 through the optical cable, the software
and data configuration file related to the RRU are not downloaded. After the RRU is
connected, the software and data configuration file related to the RRU are automatically
downloaded from the USB disk.
lIf the USB disk saves only the software, the NodeB automatically upgrades the software.
lIf the USB disk is only saved with the data configuration file, the NodeB automatically
downloads the data configuration file.
lIn any of the following situations, the NodeB does not upgrade the software or download
the data configuration file from the USB disk.
–The directory or the file does not exist.
–The file format is illegal.

6.3.3 Upgrading the eNodeB Software and Downloading the Data
Configuration File (on the eNodeB Side)
This section describes how to download and activate the eNodeB software and data configuration
file through the USB storage device. The eNodeB automatically downloads the software and
data configuration file from the USB storage device, and then activates them. The software and
data configuration take effect after the eNodeB resets.
Prerequisite
The USB storage device is ready for use. The required files are saved in the USB storage device.
For details, see 6.2.3 Arranging the USB Disk for Local eNodeB Commissioning.
CAUTION
If one USB storage device is used repeatedly, the target eNodeB software and data configuration
file in the USB storage device should be updated before the USB storage device is used for an
eNodeB deployment.
When you save the eNodeB software and data configuration file to the USB storage device,
ensure that the locking switch on the USB storage device is disabled. In other words, the USB
storage device should be writable.
Context
When the LMPT of the BBU3900 is started, it automatically detects the USB storage device,
reads the related software and data configuration file in the USB storage device, and verifies the
file names and formats.
If you install the BBU before installing the RRU, you can install and power on the RRU during
the process of BBU software downloading. After the BBU software is downloaded and activated

successfully, and the RRU is powered on, reset the LMPT for automatic upgrade of the RRU
software.
You should pay attention to the following points when you download and activate the software
and the configuration file through the USB storage device:
lIf the USB storage device contains the common configuration file of the site, digital
certificate and eNodeB software, the eNodeB parses the common configuration file, loads
the digital certificate, and then downloads and activates the eNodeB software and data
configuration. If the eNodeB cannot parse the common configuration file, it does not
proceed with the subsequent process.
lIf the USB storage device contains only the eNodeB software and data configuration, the
eNodeB downloads and activates the eNodeB software, and then downloads and activates
the data configuration.
lIf the eNodeB software or data configuration file is missing in the USB storage device, the
eNodeB performs the following steps:
–If the eNodeB software is missing in the USB storage device, the eNodeB
commissioning through the USB storage device is not performed.
–If the data configuration file is missing in the USB storage device, the eNodeB upgrades
to the minimum configuration of the target version and skips the download and
activation of data configuration.
lIf the eNodeB software upgrade fails, the eNodeB rolls back to the pre-upgrade version.
lBefore downloading and activating data configuration, the eNodeB does not check the
compatibility between the data configuration file and the eNodeB software version. The
eNodeB performs the following activities:
–If the eNodeB software is upgraded successfully but is not compatible with the data
configuration file, or if the download and activation of data configuration fail, the
eNodeB uses the minimum configuration of the target version.
–When the active eNodeB software is consistent with the target software version,
software upgrade is not performed. After the eNodeB resets, if the active eNodeB
software is not compatible with the data configuration file or if the download and
activation of data configuration fail, the eNodeB uses the data configuration of the
earlier version.
lIf any of the following situations occurs, the eNodeB would not download or activate the
eNodeB software or data configuration file from the USB storage device.
–The directory or the file does not exist.
–The eNodeB software is missing in the USB storage device, and therefore the software
and data cannot be downloaded or activated.
–The target software version is consistent with the active eNodeB software, and therefore
the eNodeB software is not downloaded or activated. The download and activation of
data configuration is still normal.
–The data configuration file is consistent with the active data configuration, and therefore
data configuration is not downloaded. The download and activation of the software is
still normal.
Procedure
Step 1 Insert the USB storage device into the USB port on the LMPT of the BBU3900, as shown in
Figure 6-4.
