2.9.4 Physical Card Reseating, Resetting, and Replacement
Caution Active cross connect (XC10G/XCVT) cards should not be physically removed.
The following rules must be followed for removing an Active Cross Connect Card (XC10G/XCVT):
If the active cross connect has to be removed, perform an XCVT/XC10G side switch to change the status
of the card from active to standby and then remove the cross connect card once it goes back to standby.
OR
Perform a lockout on all circuits that originate from the node whose active cross connect card has to be
removed (performing a lockout on all spans will also accomplish the same goal).
2.9.4 Physical Card Reseating, Resetting, and Replacement
This section gives instructions for physically reseating and replacing TCC2/TCC2P, cross-connect, and
traffic cards.
Caution Do not physically replace a card without first making provisions to switch or move traffic to a different
card or circuit. General procedures for this are located in the “2.9.2 Protection Switching, Lock
Initiation, and Clearing” section on page 2-262. In-depth traffic switching procedures and information
can be found in the “Maintain the Node” chapter of the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
Remove and Reinsert (Reseat) the Standby TCC2/TCC2P Card
Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454.
Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right edge of the shelf assembly.
Caution Do not perform this action without the supervision and direction of Cisco TAC 1 800 553-2447.
Caution The TCC2/TCC2P reseat could be service-affecting. Refer to the “2.9.2 Protection Switching, Lock
Initiation, and Clearing” section on page 2-262 for traffic-switching procedures.
Note Before you reset the TCC2/TCC2P, you should wait at least 60 seconds after the last provisioning change
you made to avoid losing any changes to the database.
Note When a standby TCC2/TCC2P card is removed and reinserted (reseated), all three fan lights could
momentarily turn on, indicating that the fans have also reset.
Step 1 Log into a node on the network.
