None
Required/As Needed
As needed
Onsite/Remote
Onsite
Warning
Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module or a fan. Exposed circuitry could constitute an energy hazard.
Note
Card removal raises an improper removal (IMPROPRMVL) alarm, but this clears after the card replacement is completed.
Step 1
Log into the node where you will replace the OC-48 card. If necessary, refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 Procedure Guide for a login procedure.
Step 2
Ensure that the card you are replacing does not carry traffic in a 1+1 group:
a.
In the node view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
b.
Choose the first group listed under Protection Groups.
c.
Verify that the slot number for the card you are replacing does not appear in the Selected Groups list. For example, if you are replacing the OC-48 card in slot 3, make sure that Selected Groups does not contain any entries that start with s3, regardless of the port.
d.
Repeat Steps b and c for each protection group.
e.
If any of the groups contain a port on the card you want to replace, perform the "Force-Switch 1+1 Ports" task.
Step 3
Ensure that the card you are replacing does carry path protection circuit traffic.
Note
A port can be part of a 1+1 protection group or part of a path protection, but it cannot be configured for both. However, different ports on one card can be configured in different ways. If you move all of the traffic off some 1+1 ports, you still need to check whether the remaining ports are carrying path protection traffic.
a.
In the CTC node view, click View > Go to Parent View.
b.
Click the Circuits tab.
c.
View the circuit source and destination ports and slots. If any circuits originate or terminate in the slot containing the card you are replacing, perform the "Force-Switch Path Protection Paths" task.
Note
If the card you are replacing is not configured for any port or circuit protection, but does carry traffic, bridge and roll this traffic onto another card. Follow the "Bridge and Roll Traffic" procedure in the Cisco ONS 15600 Procedure Guide.
Step 4
Remove any fiber optic cables from the ports.
Step 5
Physically remove the card to be replaced from the ONS 15600 shelf:
a.
Open the card ejectors.
b.
Slide the card out of the slot.
Step 6
Physically replace the OC-48 card in the shelf:
a.
Open the ejectors on the replacement card.
b.
Slide the replacement card into the slot along the guide rails until it contacts the backplane.
c.
Close the ejectors.
Note
When you replace a card with an identical type of card, you do not need to make any changes to the database.
Step 7
Clear the Force switches.
•
To clear 1+1 Force switches, complete the "Clear a 1+1 Force Switch" task.
•
To clear Path Protection Force switches, complete the "Clear a Path Protection Force Switch" task.
Step 8
Once the card is placed in service and is receiving traffic, reset the card's physical receive power level threshold in CTC:
a.
Double-click the newly installed card in CTC node view.
b.
Click the Provisioning > Threshold tabs.
c.
Click the Physical radio button.
d.
Click Set OPM for each port on the card.
Force-Switch 1+1 Ports
Note
The Force switch is performed even if the destination path is degraded.
Step 1
In the CTC node view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
Step 2
Select the protection group you want to Force-switch from Protection Groups.
Step 3
Under Selected Groups, choose the port belonging to the card you are replacing by clicking it. For example, if the card you are replacing contains the protect/standby port, click this port.
Step 4
Click the Force button.
Step 5
If the switch is successful, the group will say either FORCE TO WORKING or FORCE TO PROTECT.
Step 6
Return to the "Replace an OC-48 Card" procedure, or to your originating procedure.
Force-Switch Path Protection Paths
Note
The Force switch is performed even if the destination path is degraded.
Step 1
In the CTC node view, click View > Go to Network View if this view is not already displayed.
Step 2

Step 4
In the network map, right-click a circuit connected to the node where you are performing the Force switch. Choose Circuits from the shortcut menu.
The Circuits window is displayed.
Step 5
Verify that this list contains the same circuits that you marked in the list.
Step 6
Choose Force from the pull-down menu at the bottom of the window.
If the switch was successful, all circuits will show FORCE in the Switch State column.
Step 7
Return to the"Replace an OC-48 Card" procedure, or to your originating procedure.
Clear a 1+1 Force Switch
Note
If the ports terminating a span are configured as revertive, clearing a Manual or Force switch to protect (or working) moves traffic back to the working (or protect) port. If ports are not configured as revertive, clearing a Manual or Force switch to protect does not move traffic back.
Step 1
In the CTC node view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
Step 2
Under Protection Groups, click the protection group containing the port you want to clear.
Step 3
Under Selected Group, click the port you want to clear.
Step 4
In the Inhibit Switching area, click Clear.
Step 5
Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box.
The lockout is cleared.
The Force switch is cleared. Traffic will revert to the original port if the group was configured for revertive switching.
Step 6
Return to the "Replace an OC-48 Card" procedure, or to your originating procedure.
Clear a Path Protection Force Switch
Step 1
In the CTC node view, click View > Go to Network View if this view is not already displayed.
Step 2
In the network map, right-click the span that you Force switched. Choose Circuits from the shortcut menu.
The Circuits window is displayed.
Step 3
Choose Clear from the pull-down menu at the bottom of the window.
The Force switch is cleared.
Note
Active circuits are displayed green in the Circuits window. Standby circuits are displayed purple in the window.
Note
If these circuits are configured for revertive switching, they will revert to original paths after the revertive time expires. If they are not revertive, they will not move back unless you Force-switch them back. If the switch state is clear, you can complete the "Force-Switch Path Protection Paths" task again to force traffic back to the original path.
Step 4
Return to the"Replace an OC-48 Card" procedure, or to your originating procedure.
