Tekelec

IXP processes can restart if they are loosing connection (DTS connection).

This behavior can be changed if restart must be avoided.

Change must be documented in customer engineering document.

IXP processes (IxpBuild, IxpOperate, IxpStore) can behave in three different way when loosing DTS connection:

Reconnect without offset (0). No restart of IxpBuild.
Reconnect with offset (1). Default offset is 1ms. This is to avoid duplicate records. No restart of IxpBuild.
Restart (2). Default behavior.

Each process type have his own LongParam parameter:

Add LongParam
This command have to be issued on master server of the subsystem (change value to 1):
echo 'No|BldDtsFailureAct|1|Build behavior in case of DTS disconnection' | iadd -ha -xU -fallowPgmChg -fname -fvalue -fcomment LongParam
Check setting is present and set as expected:
[cfguser@ixp0001-1b ~]$ igrep -p BldDtsFailureAct LongParam
allowPgmChg name value comment
No BldDtsFailureAct 1 Build behavior in case of DTS disconnection

IXP process restart is necessary for the parameter to take effect.
