Chapter 1 General Troubleshooting
1.8.2 Restore the Node to Factory Configuration
The reinitialization begins. After the software is downloaded and activated, and the database is uploaded
to the TCC2/TCC2P cards, “Complete” appears in the status bar and the TCC2/TCC2P cards will reboot.
Wait a few minutes for the reboot to complete.
Step 8 After the reboot is complete, log into the node.
Step 9 Manually set the node name and network configuration to site-specific values. Refer to the
Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide Chapter 10, “Change Node Settings,” for information on
setting the node name, IP address, mask and gateway, and IIOP port.
Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (UNIX)
Caution Restoring a node to the factory configuration deletes all cross-connects on the node.
Step 1 Insert the system software CD containing the reinit tool, software, and defaults database into the
computer CD-ROM drive. If the CTC Installation Wizard appears, click Cancel.
Step 2 To find the recovery tool file, go to the CISCO15454SDH directory on the CD (usually
/cdrom/cdrom0/CISCO15454SDH).
Step 3 If you are using a file explorer, double-click the RE-INIT.jar file. If you are working with a command
line, run java -jar RE-INIT.jar. The NE Re-Initialization window appears (Figure 1-47).
Step 4 Complete the following fields:
• GNE IP—If the node you are reinitializing is accessed through another node configured as a gateway
network element (GNE), enter the GNE IP address. If you have a direct connection to the node, leave
this field blank.
• Node IP—Enter the node name or IP address of the node that you are reinitializing.
• User ID—Enter the user ID needed to access the node.
• Password—Enter the password for the user ID.
• Upload Package—Check this box to send the software package file to the node. If unchecked, the
software stored on the node is not modified.
• Force Upload—Check this box to send the software package file to the node even if the node is
running the same software version. If unchecked, reinitialization will not send the software package
if the node is already running the same version.
• Activate/Revert—Check this box to activate the uploaded software (if the software is a later than the
installed version) or revert to the uploaded software (if the software is earlier than the installed
version) as soon as the software file is uploaded. If unchecked, the software is not activated or
reverted after the upload, allowing you to initiate the functions later from the node view
Maintenance > Software tabs.
• Re-init Database—Check this box to send a new database to the node. (This is equivalent to the CTC
database restore operation.) If unchecked, the node database is not modified.
• Confirm—Check this box if you want a warning message displayed before any operation is
performed. If unchecked, reinitialization does not display a warning message.
• Search Path—Enter the path to the CISCO15454SDH folder on the CD drive.
Step 5 Click Go.
