Migrating Archibus Client/Server Telecom Assets: Field Reference

The routine to migrate Archibus Windows Client/Server Telecom data for use in Web Central converts the following tables.

Note that the routine does not migrate all Client/Server fields; the fields that are not migrated are noted below. Web Central Telecom features do not require the fields that are not migrated.

Punch Block Contained Positions to Patch Panel Ports

There is no source table for punch block contained positions. Rather each punch block has the number of connections specified in the Number of Contained Positions field (tc_npositions) in the Punch Block Standards (pbstd) table.

The Number of Contained Positions migrates to the corresponding field with the same name in the Panel Standards (pnstd) table.

Punch Block positions are specified in the Down Position and Up Position fields of the Connections table (afm_tccn). The migration process creates a single port in the Panel Ports table for each unique position entry in the Down Position and Up Position fields for each punch block.

For each Punch Block, the workflow rule runs the following SQL query statement to generate the corresponding ports for the Panel Ports table:

INSERT INTO pnport (pn_id,port_id) SELECT DISTINCT 'PB19H',position FROM
((SELECT DISTINCT downhill_position AS position FROM afm_tccn WHERE downhill_key='PB19H') UNION (SELECT DISTINCT uphill_position AS position FROM afm_tccn WHERE uphill_key='PB19H')) AS pnport order by position

Connections Table (afm_tccn) to Key Element Uphill Keys (eq, eqport, pn, pnport, jk tables)

The migration from the Connections table (afm_tccn) uses a series of SQL statements to process the Connection records and fill in the corresponding uphill fields (To fields) in the Jacks, Equipment, Equipment Ports, and Panel Ports tables.
