Overview

The

Spacevars
0product2
 performance metrics for simultaneous sessions for various call scenarios are summarized in the "Benchmarking Results" section of the following pages. Note that these numbers apply to our recommended CPU and memory configurations, and the results may vary depending on the actual CPUs used. Exceeding these simultaneous sessions metrics may result in poor call performance, including longer call setup times and/or poor voice quality. Sonus recommends

Increasing RAM on Active SBC SWe Systems

Use the following procedure to increase RAM size on active (live) systems to meet the desired SBC SWe session capacity.

StepAction
1

Power down the designated

Standby

standby SBC.

2

Increase the RAM size of the VM system, and then power-on the

Standby

standby SBC.

3

Perform a manual switchover, and then power-down the previously

Active

active SBC. Refer to the following pages for details:

EMA: System - Admin

CLI: Admin - CLI

4

Increase the RAM size of the VM system for the powered-down SBC, and then power it back up.

5Manually switchover to revert the
Active
active/
Standby
standby SBCs back to their original states prior to beginning this procedure.
6Follow LSWU steps if you are upgrading to the next release.
