Note You must back up and restore the database for each node on a circuit path in order to maintain a complete circuit.
Note The following parameters are not backed up and restored: node name, IP address, subnet mask and gateway, and Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP) port. If you change the node name and then restore a backed up database with a different node name, the circuits map to the new node name. Cisco recommends keeping a record of the old and new node names.
Step 1 Complete the "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" task at the node you want to back up. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Maintenance > Database tabs.
Step 3 Click Backup.
Step 4 Save the database on the workstation's hard drive or on network storage. Use an appropriate file name with the DB file extension; for example, database.db.
Step 5 Click Save.
Step 6 Click OK in the confirmation dialog box.

Note The following parameters are not backed up and restored: node name, IP address, subnet mask and gateway, and IIOP port. If you change the node name and then restore a backed up database with a different node name, the circuits map to the new renamed node. Cisco recommends keeping a record of the old and new node names.
Caution If you are restoring the database on multiple nodes, wait approximately one minute after the TCC2/TCC2P card reboot has completed on each node before proceeding to the next node.
Caution TCC2P cards can be used in single IP address (repeater) and dual IP address (secure) mode. The secure mode has advanced features that affect database restore. A database from a secure node cannot be loaded on an unsecure repeater node. A repeater mode database can be loaded onto a secure node but the database will follow the node characteristics (that is, it will become secure). A secure database cannot be loaded onto a TCC2; only TCC2P cards support secure mode. For more information about the dual IP secure mode, see the
"NTP-G26 Set Up CTC Network Access" procedure on page 3-13. Also refer to the "Management Network Connectivity" chapter in the
Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manuall.
Step 1 Complete the "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" task at the node where you are restoring the database. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Circuits tab. Verify that no optical channel network connection (OCHNC) circuits have a PARTIAL_OOS state. If so, investigate and resolve the partial state before continuing.
Step 3 Complete the "DLP-G157 Disable Automatic Power Control" task on page 10-4.
Step 4 In multishelf view (multishelf mode) or in node view (single-shelf mode), click the Maintenance > Database tabs.
Step 5 Click Restore.
Step 6 Locate the database file stored on the workstation hard drive or on network storage.
To clear all existing provisioning, locate and upload the database found on the latest ONS 15454 software CD.
Step 7 Click the database file to highlight it.
Step 8 Click OK. The DB Restore dialog box appears. Opening a restore file from another node or from an earlier backup might affect traffic on the login node.
Step 9 Click Yes.
The Restore Database dialog box monitors the file transfer ( Figure 13-1).
Figure 13-1 Restoring the Database—In-Process Notification
Step 10 Wait for the file to complete the transfer to the TCC2/TCC2P card.
Step 11 Click OK when the "Lost connection to node, changing to Network View" dialog box appears. Wait for the node to reconnect.
Step 12 Complete the "DLP-G158 Enable Automatic Power Control" task on page 10-4.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
NTP-G105 Restore the Node to Factory Configuration
Caution Cisco strongly recommends that you keep different node databases in separate folders. This is because the reinitialization tool chooses the first product-specific software package in the specified directory if you use the Search Path field instead of the Package and Database fields. You might accidentally copy an incorrect database if multiple databases are kept in the specified directory.
Caution Restoring a node to the factory configuration deletes all cross-connects on the node.
Caution Cisco recommends that you save the node database to safe location if you will not be restoring the node using the database provided on the software CD.
Note The following parameters are not backed up and restored when you delete the database and restore the factory settings: node name, IP address, subnet mask and gateway, and IIOP port. If you change the node name and then restore a backed up database with a different node name, the circuits map to the new renamed node. Cisco recommends keeping a record of the old and new node names.
Step 1 If you need to install or replace one or more TCC2/TCC2P cards, see the "DLP-G33 Install the TCC2 or TCC2P Card" task on page 1-74.
Step 2 If you are using Microsoft Windows, complete the "DLP-G248 Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (Windows)" task.
Step 3 If you are using UNIX, complete the "DLP-G249 Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (UNIX)" task.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
DLP-G248 Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (Windows)
Caution Restoring a node to the factory configuration deletes all cross-connects on the node.

Description
|
Option
|
Option Description
|
Clock
|
Indicates the timing clock. The report section that follows applies to the timing clock indicated.
|
NE
|
The node timing clock.
|
BITS-1 Out
|
The BITS-1 Out timing clock.
|
BITS-2 Out
|
The BITS-2 Out timing clock.
|
Status
|
Indicates the status of the timing clock.
|
INIT_STATE
|
The timing reference has not been provisioned. For an NE reference, this status appears just before the first provisioning messages when the TCC2/TCC2P card is booting. Timing is provisioned to the internal clock of the node.
|
HOLDOVER_STATE
|
The clock was locked onto a valid timing reference for more than 140 seconds when a failure occurred. Holdover state timing is a computation based on timing during the normal state combined with the node's internal clock. The node holds onto this frequency until the valid reference is restored. This status appears for NE references only.
|
FREERUN_STATE
|
The node is running off its internal clock without any modification except the calibrated value to bring timing to 0 PPM. Freerun state can occur when a Force switch to the Internal clock is initiated, when all references fail without the 140 seconds of holdover data, or when only Internal timing references are defined. This status appears for NE references only.
|
NO_SYNC_STATE
|
A synchronization timing reference is not defined. BITS-1 Out or BITS-2 Out default to this status until an OC-N/STM-N card is defined as its reference on the Provisioning > Timing tab. This status appears for external references only.
|
NE_SYNCH_STATE
|
BITS-1 Out and BITS-2 Out use the same timing source as the NE. This is displayed when NE Reference is selected in the BITS-1 Out and BITS-2 Out Reference List on the Provisioning > Timing tab.
|
NORMAL_STATE
|
The timing reference is locked onto one of its provisioned references. The reference cannot be Internal or NO SYNC STATE.
|
FAST_START_STATE
|
The node has switched references, but the reference is too far away to reach NORMAL_STATE within an acceptable amount of time. FAST_START_STATE is a fast acquisition mode to allow the node to quickly acquire the reference. After it achieves this goal, the node progresses to NORMAL_STATE.
|
FAST_START_FAILED_STATE
|
A timing reference is too far away to reach in normal state. The FAST_START_STATE could not acquire sufficient timing information within the allowable amount of time.
|

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. Statement 206
Caution Cisco recommends that you inspect the air filter monthly, and clean the filter every three to six months. Replace the air filter every two to three years. Avoid cleaning the air filter with harsh cleaning agents or solvents.
Note Although the filter can work if it is installed with either side facing up, Cisco recommends that you install it with the metal bracing facing up to preserve the surface of the filter.
Step 1 Verify that you are replacing a reusable air filter. The reusable filter is made of a gray, open-cell, polyurethane foam that is specially coated to provide fire and fungi resistance. NEBS 3E and later versions of the ONS 15454 use a reusable air filter.
Step 2 If the air filter is installed in the external filter brackets, slide the filter out of the brackets while being careful not to dislodge any dust that might have collected on the filter and proceed to Step 9. Figure 13-4 shows the reusable fan-tray air filter in an external filter bracket on an ANSI shelf. Figure 13-5 shows the reusable fan-tray air filter in an external filter bracket on an ETSI shelf.
Step 3 If the filter is installed below the fan tray and not in the external filter brackets, open the front door of the shelf assembly. If the front door is already open, proceed to Step 4.
a. Open the front door lock.
The ONS 15454 comes with a pinned hex key for locking and unlocking the front door. Turn the key counterclockwise to unlock the door and clockwise to lock it.
b. Press the door button to release the latch.
c. Swing the door open.
Step 4 (Optional) Remove the front door using the "DLP-G10 Remove the Front Door" task on page 1-21. If you do not want to remove the door or it is already removed, proceed to Step 5.
Figure 13-4 ANSI Shelf Fan-Tray Air Filter in an External Filter Bracket (Front Door Removed)
Figure 13-5 ETSI Shelf Fan-Tray Air Filter in an External Filter Bracket (Front Door Removed)
Step 5 Push the outer side of the handles on the fan-tray assembly to expose the handles.
Step 6 Pull the handles and slide the fan-tray assembly one inch (25.4 mm) out of the shelf assembly and wait until the fans stop.
Step 7 When the fans have stopped, pull the fan-tray assembly completely out of the shelf assembly.
Step 8 Gently remove the air filter from the shelf assembly. Be careful not to dislodge any dust that might have collected on the filter.
Step 9 Visually inspect the air filter material for dirt and dust.
Step 10 If the reusable air filter contains a concentration of dirt and dust, replace the dirty air filter with a clean air filter (spare filters should be kept in stock) and reinsert the fan-tray assembly. Then, vacuum the dirty air filter or wash it under a faucet with a light detergent.
Caution Do not leave the fan tray out of the chassis for an extended period of time because excessive heat can damage the ONS 15454 cards.
Note Cleaning should take place outside of the operating environment to avoid releasing dirt and dust near the equipment.
Step 11 If you washed the filter, allow it to completely air dry for at least eight hours.
Caution Do not put a damp filter back in the ONS 15454.
Step 12 Replace the clean filter:
a. If the air filter is installed in the external filter brackets, slide the dry air filter all the way to the back of the brackets to complete the procedure, continue to step 16.
b. If the filter is installed below the fan-tray assembly, remove the fan-tray assembly and slide the dry/clean air filter into the recessed compartment at the bottom of the shelf assembly. Put the front edge of the air filter flush against the front edge of the recessed compartment. Push the fan tray back into the shelf assembly.
Caution If the fan tray does not slide all the way to the back of the shelf assembly, pull the fan tray out and readjust the position of the reusable filter until the fan tray fits correctly.
Note On a powered-up ONS 15454, the fans start immediately after the fan-tray assembly is correctly inserted.
Step 13 To verify that the tray is plugged into the backplane, ensure that the LCD on the front of the fan-tray assembly is activated and displays node information.
Step 14 Rotate the retractable handles back into their compartments.
Step 15 If you removed the door, complete the "G40 Replace the Front Door" procedure. If not, close and lock the door.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.

Step 2 Open the front door of the shelf assembly. If the shelf assembly does not have a front door, continue with Step 4.
a. Open the front door lock.
The ONS 15454 comes with a pinned hex key for locking and unlocking the front door. Turn the key counterclockwise to unlock the door and clockwise to lock it.
b. Press the door button to release the latch.
c. Swing the door open.
Step 3 (Optional) Complete the "DLP-G10 Remove the Front Door" procedure on page 1-21 to remove the front door. If you do not want to remove the door, proceed to Step 4.
Step 4 Push the outer side of the handles on the fan-tray assembly to expose the handles.
Step 5 Fold out the retractable handles at the outside edges of the fan tray.
Step 6 Pull the handles and slide the fan-tray assembly one inch (25.4 mm) out of the shelf assembly and wait until the fans stop.
Step 7 When the fans have stopped, pull the fan-tray assembly completely out of the shelf assembly. Figure 13-8 shows the location of the fan tray on the ONS 15454 ANSI shelf.

Caution Do not use a 2A AIP with a 5A fan-tray assembly; doing so will cause a blown fuse on the AIP.
Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.
Caution Do not perform this procedure on a node with live traffic. Hot-swapping the AIP can affect traffic and result in a loss of data. For assistance with AIP replacement, contact the Cisco TAC. See the
"Obtaining Technical Assistance" section on page lv.
Step 1 Review Table 13-3 to ensure that you have compatible components when replacing the ANSI shelf AIP and note the alarms that will occur when an incompatibility occurs.
Step 2 Ensure that all nodes in the affected network are running the same software version before replacing the AIP and repairing circuits:
a. In network view or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click, click the Maintenance > Software tabs. The working software version for each node is listed in the Working Version column.
b. If you need to upgrade the software on a node, refer to the release-specific software upgrade document. No hardware should be changed or circuit repair performed until after the software upgrade is complete. If you do not need to upgrade software or have completed the software upgrade, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3 Record the MAC address of the old AIP:
a. Log into the node where you will replace the AIP. See the "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" task.
b. In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning > Network tabs.
c. Record the MAC address shown in the General tab ( Figure 13-10).
Figure 13-10 Find the MAC Address
Step 4 Call Cisco TAC for assistance in replacing the AIP and maintaining the original MAC address. See the "Obtaining Technical Assistance" section on page lv.
Step 5 Complete the "DLP-G13 Remove the Lower Backplane Cover" task on page 1-26.
Step 6 Unscrew the two screws that hold the AIP cover in place.
Step 7 Grip the cover and gently pull away from the backplane.
Note On the 15454-SA-HD (P/N: 800-24848), 15454-SA-NEBS3E, 15454-SA-NEBS3, and 15454-SA-R1 (P/N: 800-07149) shelves, the AIP cover is clear plastic. On the 15454-SA-ANSI shelf (P/N: 800-19857), the AIP cover is metal.
Step 8 Grip the AIP and gently pull it away from the backplane.
Step 9 Disconnect the fan-tray assembly power cable from the AIP.
Step 10 Set the old AIP aside for return to Cisco.
Caution The type of shelf that the AIP resides in determines the version of AIP that should replace the failed AIP. The 15454-SA-ANSI shelf (P/N: 800-19857) and 15454-SA-HD (P/N: 800-24848) currently use the 5A AIP, (P/N: 73-7665-01). The 15454-SA-NEBS3E, 15454-SA-NEBS3, and 15454-SA-R1 (P/N: 800-07149) shelves and earlier use the 2A AIP (P/N: 73-5262-01).
Caution Do not put a 2A AIP (P/N: 73-5262-01) into a 15454-SA-ANSI (P/N: 800-19857) or 15454-SA-HD (P/N: 800-24848) shelf; doing so will cause a blown fuse on the AIP.
Step 11 Attach the fan-tray assembly power cable to the new AIP.
Step 12 Place the new AIP on the backplane by plugging the panel into the backplane using the DIN connector.
Step 13 Replace the AIP cover over the AIP and secure the cover with the two screws.
Step 14 Replace the lower backplane cover and secure the cover with the five screws.
Step 15 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning > Network tabs.
Caution Cisco recommends that TCC2/TCC2P card resets be performed in a maintenance window to avoid any potential service disruptions.
Step 16 Reset the standby TCC2/TCC2P card:
a. Right-click the standby TCC2/TCC2P card and choose Reset Card.
b. Click Yes in the Resetting Card dialog box. As the card resets, a loading (Ldg) indication appears on the card in CTC.
Note The reset takes approximately five minutes. Do not perform any other steps until the reset is complete.
Step 17 Complete the "DLP-G250 Reset the TCC2/TCC2P Card" task to reset the active TCC2/TCC2P card.
Step 18 From the File drop-down list, choose Exit to exit the CTC session.
Step 19 Log back into the node. In the Login dialog box, choose (None) from the Additional Nodes drop-down list.
Step 20 Record the new MAC address:
a. In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning > Network tabs.
b. Record the MAC address shown in the General tab.
Step 21 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Circuits tab. Note that all circuits listed have a status of PARTIAL.
Step 22 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), choose Repair Circuits from the Tools drop-down list. The Circuit Repair dialog box appears.
Step 23 Read the instructions in the Circuit Repair dialog box ( Figure 13-11). If all the steps in the dialog box have been completed, click Next. Ensure that you have the old and new MAC addresses.
Figure 13-11 Repairing Circuits
Step 24 The Node MAC Addresses dialog box appears ( Figure 13-12):

Note For a list of NE defaults, see the "Network Element Defaults" appendix in the Cisco ONS 15454 DWDM Reference Manual.
Step 1 Complete the "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" task at the node where you want to edit NE defaults.
Step 2 In node view (single-shelf mode) or multishelf view (multishelf mode), click the Provisioning > Defaults tabs. Wait for the Defaults selector frame to load the defaults. This could take several minutes.
Step 3 Under Defaults Selector, choose either a card (if editing card-level defaults) or NODE (if editing node-level defaults). Clicking on the node name (at the top of the Defaults Selector column) lists all available NE defaults (both node- and card-level) under Default Name.
Step 4 Locate a default that you want to change under Default Name.
Step 5 Click in the Default Value column for the default property that you are changing and either choose a value from the drop-down list (when available), or type in the desired new value.
Note If you click Reset before you click Apply, all values will return to their original settings.
Step 6 Click Apply (click in the Default Name column to activate the Apply button if it is unavailable). You can modify multiple default values before applying the changes.
A pencil icon will appear next to any default value that will be changed as a result of editing the defaults file.
Step 7 If you are modifying node-level defaults, a dialog box appears telling you that defaults were successfully applied to the node. Click Yes.
If you are modifying the IIOP Listener Port setting, a dialog box appears warning you that the node will reboot and asks if you want to continue. Click Yes.
Note Changes to most node defaults reprovision the node when you click Apply. Changes made to card settings using the Defaults Editor do not change the settings for cards that are already installed or slots that are preprovisioned for cards, but rather, change only cards that are installed or preprovisioned thereafter. To change settings for installed cards or preprovisioned slots, see Chapter 11, "Change DWDM Card Settings." To change settings for transponder or muxponder cards see "Provision Transponder and Muxponder Cards."
Note Changing some NE defaults can cause CTC disconnection or a reboot of the node in order for the default to take effect. Before you change a default, view the Side Effects column of the Defaults editor (right-click a column header and select Show Column > Side Effects) and be prepared for the occurrence of any side effects listed for that default.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
