Sequence and
relationship of data
changes
Figure 14-2 is a "bubble chart" that indicates the sequence and
relationship of data changes. The special "on-line reconfigure"
bubbles indicate that changes to that data affect the NCF and require
certain nodes on the LCN to be reset and then reloaded with the new
NCF in the data that is loaded. For the "on-line reconfigure" bubbles,
the nodes that must be reloaded and the order in which they must be
reloaded is indicated by the "on-line" Network Configuration
displays. Refer to Network Form Instructions and Network Data
Entry for more details. Where an “on-line reconfigure” bubble leads
to a regular bubble (i.e. “Build/Add/Delete AMs” leads to “Build/
Reconstitute Entities and Store in .EBs or IDFs”), the appropriate
nodes must be reloaded BEFORE performing the second type of data
change (“Build/Reconstitute Entities and Store in .EBs or IDFs”).
