NTP-A296 Upgrade the TCC2 Card to the TCC2P Card
Note On the XC10G card the fail LED above the ACT/STBY LED becomes red, blinks for several
seconds, and turns off. The ACT/STBY LED turns amber and remains on. In node view, the
XC10G appears as the standby XCVT.
Step 5 In node view, click the Maintenance > Cross-Connect tabs.
Step 6 From the Cross Connect Cards menu, choose Switch.
Step 7 Click Yes on the Confirm Switch dialog box. Traffic switches to the XC10G card you inserted in
Step 4. The ACT/STBY LED on this card changes from amber to green.
Step 8 Physically remove the now standby XCVT card from the ONS 15454 and insert the second XC10G card
into the empty XCVT card slot:
a. Open the XCVT card ejectors.
b. Slide the XCVT card out of the slot.
c. Open the ejectors on the XC10G card.
d. Slide the XC10G card into the slot along the guide rails.
e. Close the ejectors.
The upgrade is complete when the second XC10G card boots up and becomes the standby XC10G card.
In node view, both the active and standby cards will change to XC10G.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
