Check BFS QAM Sessions
Introduction
After you obtain your system configuration, your next step is to check the BFS QAM
for the number of sessions and to remove any completed or orphaned sessions. This
check enables you to compare the number of sessions before and after the
installation process is complete, and indicates a successful upgrade if an equal
number of sessions are built after the upgrade process is complete.

check enables you to compare the number of sessions before and after the

Verifying the Number of Recovered BFS Sessions
Complete the following steps to check the number of post-upgrade BFS sessions.

Tearing Down the BFS and OSM Sessions
Complete the following steps to tear down the BFS and OSM sessions in order to
return the BFS session count to the expected number of sessions.
1 On the DNCS Control window, highlight the osm process.
