Use this procedure to reset a line card in Cisco Optical Site Manager. It helps you complete the required configuration, verification, or management action and confirm the result.
Reset a line card to recover from operational issues or to reinitialize the card.
-
Choose a soft reset when you need to reboot the line card and reload software without removing power or disrupting traffic on active or standby control cards.
-
Choose a hard reset when you need to remove power to clear all memory, equivalent to reseating the card, after placing the card in standby or maintenance mode to avoid traffic disruption.
This task is performed from the NFV view by using the context menu on the line card in the rack.
Procedure
The line card is reset based on the selected option (soft reset or hard reset).
