The global MPLS- level pce-report command can be used to enable or disable PCE
reporting for all SR-TE LSPs for the purpose of LSP database synchronization. This
configuration is inherited by all LSPs of a particular type. The PCE reports both CSPF
and non-CSPF LSPs. The default value is disabled (no pce-report). This default
value controls the introduction of the PCE into an existing network and allows the
operator to decide if all LSP types need to be reported.
The LSP-level pce-report command overrides the global configuration for PCE
reporting for an LSP. The default value is to inherit the global MPLS-level value. The
inherit value reconfigures the LSP to inherit the global configuration for that LSP
type.

Configuring PCC-controlled, PCE-computed, and PCE-controlled SR-TE LSPs.
3.12.2.1 PCC-initiated and PCC-controlled LSPs
For PCC-initiated and PCC-controlled LSPs, the user configures the LSP name,
primary path name, and optional secondary path name with the path information in
the referenced path name, entering a full or partial explicit path with all or some hops
to the destination of the LSP. Each hop is specified as an address of a node or an
address of the next hop of a TE link. Optionally, each hop can be specified as a SID
value that corresponds to the MPLS label to use on a hop. If this option is used, the
whole path must consist of SIDs.
To configure the primary path or secondary path to always use a specific link
whenever it is up, the strict hop must be entered as an address corresponding to the
next hop of an adjacency SID. If the strict hop corresponds to a loopback address, it
is translated to an adjacency SID as explained below and therefore there is no
guarantee that the same TE link is picked.
To use an SR-TE path that consists of unprotected adjacency SIDs, each hop of the
path must be configured as a strict hop with the address matching the next hop of the
adjacency SID and protection on each of these adjacencies must be disabled as
explained in SR-TE LSP Path Computation.
Note: If PCE reporting is disabled for the LSP, either due to inheritance or due to LSP-level
configuration, enabling the pce-control option for the LSP has no effect. To help
troubleshoot this situation, operational values of both the pce-report and pce-control are
added to the output of the LSP show commands.
