Transients Conditions
This chapter gives a description, entity, SNMP number, and trap for each commonly encountered Cisco ONS 15600 transient condition.
3.1 Transients Indexed By Alphabetical Entry
Table 3-1 alphabetically lists all ONS 15600 transient conditions and their entity, SNMP number, and SNMP trap.
Note
The CTC default alarm profile might contain conditions that are not currently implemented but are reserved for future use.
3.2 Trouble Notifications
The ONS 15600 reports trouble by using standard condition characteristics that follow the rules in Telcordia GR-253 and graphical user interface (GUI) state indicators.
The ONS 15600 uses standard Telcordia categories to characterize levels of trouble. The system reports trouble notifications as alarms and reports status or descriptive notifications (if configured to do so) as conditions in the CTC Alarms window. Alarms typically signify a problem that you need to remedy, such as a loss of signal. Conditions do not necessarily require troubleshooting.
3.2.1 Condition Characteristics
Conditions include any problem detected on an ONS 15600 shelf. They can include standing or transient notifications. You can retrieve a snapshot of all currently raised conditions on the network, node, or card in the CTC Conditions window or by using the RTRV-COND commands in TL1.
Note
For a comprehensive list of conditions, refer to the Cisco ONS SONET TL1 Command Guide.
3.2.2 Condition States
The History tab state (ST) column indicates the disposition of the condition, as follows:

This transient condition does not result in a standing condition.
3.3.10 DBBACKUP-FAIL
The DBBACKUP-FAIL (Database Backup Failed) condition occurs when the system fails to back up the database when the backup command is initiated.
This condition can occur when the server is not able to handle the backup operation due to network or server issues. Repeat the same operation again and check to see if it is successful. If the backup fails, it could be due to a network issue or software program failure. Contact TAC for assistance; see the "Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request" section as needed.
3.3.11 DBRESTORE-FAIL
The DBRESTORE-FAIL (Database Restore Failed) condition occurs when the system fails to restore the backed up database when the restore command is initiated.
This condition can be due to server issues, network issues, or human error (pointing to a file that does not exist, wrong file name, etc.). Retrying the database restore with the correct file will usually succeed. If the network issue persists, you must contact network lab support. If the condition is caused by a network element (NE) failure, contact TAC for assistance. See the "Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request" section as needed.
3.3.12 EXERCISING-RING

An incorrect input that points to the wrong place or file, network issues, or a bad (corrupt) package can cause this failure. Retrying the operation with the correct name/location will usually succeed. If network issues persist, you must contact the network lab support. If the package is corrupt, contact Cisco TAC. See Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request for details.
3.3.33 SPANLENGTH-OUT-OF-RANGE
The SPANLENGTH-OUT-OF-RANGE (Span Length Out of Range) condition occurs when the measured span loss does not fall within the limits of minimum and maximum expected span loss. It can also occur when the difference between MaxExpSpanLoss and MinExpSpanLoss is greater than 1dB.
When you perform a Calculate Span Loss operation on an ONS 15454 DWDM node, the software measures the real span loss in the field by comparing the far-end POSC power and the near-end OSC power.
3.3.34 SWFTDOWNFAIL
The SFTDOWN-FAIL (Software Download Failed) condition occurs when the system fails to download the required software.
An incorrect input that points to the wrong place or file, network issues, or a bad (corrupt) package can cause this failure. Retrying the operation with the correct name/location will usually succeed. If network issues persist, you must contact the network lab support. If the package is corrupt, contact Cisco TAC. See Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request for details.

This transient condition does not result in a standing condition.
3.3.39 WKSWPR
The WKSWPR (Switched to Protection) condition occurs when traffic switches to the protect port/card in a non-revertive protection group.
This transient condition does not result in a standing condition.
3.3.40 WRMRESTART
The WRMRESTART (Warm Restart) condition occurs when the node restarts while powered up. A restart can be caused by provisioning, such as database-restore and IP changes, or software defects. A WRMRESTART is normally accompanied by MANRESET or AUTORESET to indicate whether the reset was initiated manually (MAN) or automatically (AUTO).
This is the first condition that appears after a TSC card is powered up. The condition changes to COLD-START if the TSC card is restarted from a physical reseat or a power loss.
3.3.41 WTR-SPAN
The WTR-SPAN (Span is in Wait To Restore State) condition occurs when a BLSR switches to another span due to a Signal Failure-Span command or a fiber is pulled from a four-fiber BLSR configuration. The condition is raised until the WaitToRestore (WTR) period expires.
This transient condition clears when the BLSR returns to a normal condition or the IDLE state.
