To verify SBE activation you must run the checkDIS.ksh program and check 

database counts. 

 

1  Are you logged into the DNCS as dncs user?  

 

If yes, go to step 4. 

 

If no, go to step 2. 

2  Log on as the dncs user. The password prompt appears. 
3  Type the dncs user password and press Enter. 
4  Type cd /dvs/dncs/bin and press Enter. 
5  Run the checkDIS.ksh command to see if any DHCTs have DIS disabled:   

Important: All DHCTs in your system should have DIS enabled. If you see any 

DHCTs with DIS disabled, then your billing system could be sending DIS 

disabled flags and you must contact Cisco Services. 

6  Run the checkDIS.ksh -c command to obtain two counts from the database.   

Note: It may take several minutes to receive count results. Record the database 

count results on a sheet of paper. 
Sample checkDIS.ksh Output
