<p class="MsoNormal">I have a quick questions with regards to LBM traces and operations.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">LBM traces print the location-to-location relationship in a bi-directional format. For example, when the requested reservation is added in LBM for a call using a single location link:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>On one line I’ll see…<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>

<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>While the next line prints…<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“REC_REC add Edge <span style="color:#7030A0">DC-Phones_Location</span>->
<span style="color:#385723;mso-style-textfill-fill-color:#385723;mso-style-textfill-fill-alpha:100.0%">
PH-Phones_Location</span>. Left=<<i><span style="font-size:10.0pt">avail_BW</span></i>>, Calls=<<i><span style="font-size:10.0pt">#ActiveCalls</span></i>>”.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The “Left=” and “Calls=” are the same. I understand CUCM has moved to a relationship model with location based CAC, but assigning bandwidth between locations is mirrored in both ways. Changing the location bandwidth from location-A to location-B
is mirrored to match location-B to location-A. So my question is why does LBM traces print the available bandwidth and number of active calls for each direction of the loc-to-loc relationship? I ask because I’m wondering if there’s a specific scenario where
one should expect different values for the bi-directional entries.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Even in a scenario with enhanced CAC and using a location path instead of a direct location link (ie. locA
<span style="font-family:Wingdings">à</span> locC <span style="font-size:10.0pt">
[NYC-1]</span> <span style="font-family:Wingdings">à</span>locB), the same LBM trace entries are found.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I also see the same trace entries during a reservation adjustment.

<p class="MsoNormal">Any insight to this would be great. This isn’t an issue, only curiosity.<o:p></o:p></p>
