History of activity on the system

Using the Support Element, you can view the history of actions taken on records for your system within the last 90 days. To view this history information, follow these steps:

  1. From the Support Element, using the expand icon (+) in the navigation toolbar, expand the Systems Management nodes in the navigation pane and select the server. For information on the Support Element user interface, refer to the console help system.
  2. From the tasks pad, click Configuration and Perform Model Conversion. The Perform Model Conversion window opens.
  3. From the Perform Model Conversion window, click Temporary upgrades and History. The Upgrade History window opens.

    The actions are identified as:

    Activate/Deactivate
    Displays when the activation levels were changed for the record.
    Install
    Displays when the record was moved from the staged area to the installed area.
    Replenish
    Displays when the record was replenished.
    Delete
    Displays when the selected record was permanently removed from the system.
    Permanent
    Displays when a change was made to the permanent LICCC on the system.
    Expired
    Displays when the record reached its expiration criteria. (Expiration criteria can be: a specific calendar date, a specific number of days, or a specific number of tokens.)

    The entries in the table are initially sorted by the date and time of the changes made to the records. You can, however, sort the table by any column by clicking the arrow located to the right of the column header.

  4. To view details about a specific action, select the record on the Upgrade History window and click Details.... The Temporary Upgrade History window opens. Depending on the action of the record selected, the contents of the Temporary Upgrade History window may include:
    • The record ID of the selected record, the action performed on the selected record, the date the action was performed, the order number associated with the selected record, the ID of the last user who acted on this record, and the source, Net ID, and NAU
    • The maximum/active model capacity identifier
    • Unassigned IFLs
    • A table containing the active CPs, and specialty engines installed for the record. For example, suppose you had a permanent configuration of 7 CPs and a CBU record had 2 active CPs previously. Then you add 3 more CBU CPs in a second activation. The table would show 5 active CPs (not 3 or not 12).

    For example, when the action of the record is Activate or Deactivate, a Temporary Upgrade History window similar to the following opens:
