How to import/export mwlink How to do batch edit via tabular editor How to do batch edit via excel import/export
Export for whole project or selection Where excel table/column required? Import excel to planet log, error, time
Eg1 Eg2 Eg3 Eg4 Eg5 add/change new site add/change NE at site add/change circuit path allocate circuit capacity from mwlink and/or LL and/or ring allocate port and define port details for NE along circuit path
1. Export/import mwlink
Each mlink file is just a zip file which has same folder structure as ellipse project, but only for 1 mwlink
User 1 and export 1 or multiple mwlink to mfile files and send to user 2 user 2 can edit mwlink standalone without open the whole project and updated mfile files user 2 send updated mlink files back to user 1 user 1 can import 1 or multiple files back to whole project
1. Export/import mwlink
Mfile contains only data from mwlink only, it does not contains transport related data (e.g., circuit, NE, port)
however, since circuit capacity allocation comes from mwlink available capacity. If mwlink radio is updated with capacity changes, as long as new mwlink capacity>= old mwlink capacity, then previous E1 and/or KLM slot circuit allocation will remain unchanged
1. Export/import mwlink
format (table/column structure) is same as exported excel useful for batch update on selected data (e.g., change all mwlink within a group to some capacity xxx) tabular editor can be used on 1 or multiple selected object for site/mwlink/NE/other tx link/circuit

3. Excel import/export
exported whole project or selected object to excel (e.g., if select circuit X, Y, Z, then all site/mwlink/LL/ring/NE used by X, Y, Z will dump to excel) if delete object is required, then after export to excel, delete all object in project must use pre-defined column/table format in excel for import, any extra column/table is not pre-defined column/table is allowed, but not used during import can only import excel 2003 xls format

3. Excel import/export
Import excel basically have 2 implicit steps data consistency check import actual excel table one by one If just 1 error occurs, 2nd step of import will NOT start, so ALL excel data will NOT get imported warning is OK for import, eg antenna tower < antenna ht Error log files is detailed enough to indicate which object in which table/column has error log files can be save to a text file all excel tables must be present when import to ellipse If out-of-memory error occurs, need to restart ellipse again each table is inter-related (i.e., if data in one table is changed, another table also needs to be changed)
3. Excel import/export
After import process is finished, user can undo import by ctrl-Z OR Save project (i.e., update data.xml) Log can be saved
Example of import without error (takes ~3min for whole VHA project)

3. Excel import/export
13
36 excel tables in total, with different # column in each table Some column only allows number and/or pre-defined set of strings
3. Excel import/export
Each object (site, mwlink, other tx link, NE, ring, circuit) have 5 comments field. The label for comments are defined in project setting these labels for comments field will be stored in DB as well
14
3. Excel import/export
Add new site and change existing site by table Sites each row is 1 site with unique ID by column Name For site long/lat projection, it is specified in project setting datum and projection and degree coordinate specified in project setting import import csv/excel
15
3. Excel import/export
Add NE and change NE at existing circuit by define NE library with Name/Site/Number of Level, port # per level in table Network Elements add NE in circuit path, by inserting NE within required circuit in table Circuit_Elements with column Position incrementing as circuit element ordering along path column Input and Output are same for case of NE
16
3. Excel import/export
Add circuit and change existing circuit path by add new circuit in table Circuits with first site=MTX site, last site = terminating BTS/NodeB, capacity #=1, capacity Type=E1 table circuit is extracted from Huawei DD excel with comment2 = customer, Comment 5 = RF cluster table Circuit Elements consists of NE, mwlink, other tx link as path, these elements must already exist in their respective tables circuit path is from Kordia transmission excel ONLY for matched circuit with Huawei DD (e.g, same RNC termination)
17
3. Excel import/export
Allocate circuit capacity from mwlink or LL/ring table Circuit Allocation contains allocated capacity, with column Type = mwlink, other tx link or ring column position is circuit path index column allocation index = 1 always for 1xE1 circuit column port = E1 index for E1 based mwlink/other tx link column port = highest hierachical STM/K/L/M for SDH based mwlink/other tx link e.g., 1xSTM1 with KLM=1.2.3 always has port=1 for STM1=1 column VC3, VC2, VC12 is KLM for SDH based mwlink/other tx link/ring Reserve or lock TDM based mwlink/LL table Microwave Link Subslots or other tx link subslots define KLM in column VC3, VC2, VC12 and column Locked = true fractional E1 or 64k can be added in column E0

3. Excel import/export
Note port # of huawei equipment needs to refer to a separate port level template to resolve issue of some port level starts from 0 (as a temporary workaround fix)
Assign port allocation to circuit by table circuit connection, column position = circuit element index, column port = port #, column connection index is not used during import, but need to have unique value for each NE connection
19
table connection represent pair-wise connection between NE NE or NE mwlink or LL column port 1 and port 2 are port allocate to NE
Useful for wcfclient uses synchronous message as it waits until DB server respond. import/export without running ellipse (i.e., without ellipse license) regular backup of DB and/or client local ellipse project as excel files import/export of selected objects same import rules apply using wcfclient Project_name, user_name and password are defined from admin console

Export from DM server to excel file xxx e.g., if export_type=CIRCUIT export all tables e.g., if export_type=SITE only export site table
