Therefore, when upgrading from R4.6.x to R8.0.0 and later, a step upgrade to R7.0.7 is recommended before upgrading to R8.0 and later. Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 OL-23756-01 3 Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 Software Upgrade Compatibility10 To upgrade a multi-shelf node from R7.0.0 or R7.0.1 to R8.5.x, R9.0.x, R9.1.x, R9.2, or R9.2.1 perform a step upgrade to R8.0.0 before upgrading to the destination version. R7.0.2 through R7.0.5 can be upgraded directly to R8.5.x, R9.0.x, R9.1.x, R9.2, or R9.2.1. 11 To upgrade a multi-shelf node from R7.0.6 to R9.2.1, perform a two step upgrade to R8.00 or R8.51 and then to R9.2.1. 12 Upgrade is not supported for R8.5.1. All other 8.5.x releases are supported. Errorless Upgrades and Exceptions This section describes important information to be aware of before you begin the upgrade process: • When a node installed with GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XP, or 10GE_XPE cards configured with REP or LACP is upgraded, traffic loss may occur. This traffic loss is due to reconvergence when the cards soft reset during the upgrade process. • The MXP_MR_2.5 and MXPP_MR_2.5 cards automatically download a new field-programmable gate array (FPGA) image during an upgrade from a software release prior to R7.0 to R9.2.1.x.The upgrades forDWDMconfigurations are expected to be errorlesswith the following exceptionsif nodes are running MXP_MR_2.5 and MXPP_MR_2.5 cards: • If Y-cable protection is not provisioned, the data path incurs a traffic hit of up to 10 seconds or less. • IfY-cable protection is provisioned on cardsrunningFiber Channel (FC) payloads,traffic switches away from the card downloading the new FPGA causing the FC link to be reinitialized. • If Y-cable protection is provisioned on cards running Gigabit Ethernet (GE) payloads, there is no traffic interruption. • During R7.x and R8.x upgrades to later releases, user data channel (UDC) traffic passing through the OSC-CSM and OSCM cards incur a traffic hit for a few milliseconds. • During an upgrade from R 8.5.x, R 9.0, or R 9.1 to R 9.2.x or later releases, a loss of Gigabit Ethernet traffic of up to one second is incurred. This traffic loss occurs when auto-negotiation is disabled on the far end of the ADM-10G card. If the node has a path protection circuit, a path protection switchover occurs. To avoid this switchover during an upgrade, perform the path protection lockout procedure before upgrading the software. Note, however, this procedure does not help avoid hits in the flow of traffic. • During a revert procedure, if Gigabit Ethernet traffic is not flowing or GFP alarms are present on an ADM-10G card, hard-reset the ADM-10G card to ensure smooth traffic flow. • In R9.2.1.x, the CE-1000-4 card incurs a traffic hit of 30 seconds during activation and FPGA card upgrade. The upgraded CE-1000-4 card also incurs a traffic hit of 110 seconds if the software is subsequently reverted, because the FPGA is downgraded during the revert. When upgrading from R5.0 to R6.0 or later in enhanced card mode on nodes running an FC_MR-4 card, ahitlesssoftwareupgrade isnotpossible.Thisisbecause theFPGA mustbeupgradedtosupportdifferential delay in enhanced mode. However, the upgrade is hitless in the line rate mode. Note The following tables are define where errorless upgrades or exceptions can occur.

During a parallel upgrade,when end-to-end circuitsin anML-Seriesresilient packet ring (RPR) are present across multiple nodes, traffic resumes only after all the nodes in these circuits complete activation Note Several alarms are raised during the upgrade due to software incompatibility.However. these alarms clear after the upgrade is complete. Note Several alarms are raised on the ML-Series cards since they undergo a hard reboot during the upgrade (cold restart is rarely used). These alarms clear after the upgrade is complete. On the ML-Series port the LOA, TPTFAIL, and VCG DOWN alarms are raised. On the paths traversed by the ML-Series circuits the SD-P, SF-P, and PDI-P alarms are raised. Note During the upgrade of R8.0 or R8.5.x to a later release, if path protection circuits of type UPSR_DRI or 2waydcwas createdonanADM-10Gcard, anyexistingsoftwareprovisioningonthe cardislost.Therefore, make sure that these path protection circuit types are not present before you upgrade to a later release. Note The ADM-10G card does not support adding drops to existing Synchronous Transport Signal (STS) circuits. Therefore, when upgrading from R8.0 to a later release, delete any STS circuits with multiple drops on the ADM-10G card. Note When upgrading to R9.0 or later, the TCC2P or TCC3 cards undergo hard reboot. During this period, the standby TCC2P or TCC3 card displays the “NP” state. This is expected behavior and has no impact on the system functionality.

This ensures that the new CTC JAR files download to the workstation as quickly as possible. If a node is provisioned to have no LAN access, the value is overridden in the case of node isolation. Additionally, if the node is not reachable, the LAN access is turned on. It is recommended that you avoid node isolation. Note G-Series cards (G1000-4 and G1K-4) purchased prior to R7.2 incur a traffic hit of 2 to 3 minutes per card during activation and FPGA card upgrade. When the software is reverted, the upgraded cards incur a traffic hit of 2 to 3 minutes since the FPGA is also downgraded. Caution Procedure Step 1 If CTC is not already started, start CTC. Step 2 Record the IP address of the node. The IP address can be obtained either on the LCD or on the upper left corner of the CTC window. Step 3 Make sure that the alarm filter is turned off. To do so, complete the following: a) Click the Filter tool at the lower-left side of the window. The Alarm Filter dialog box appears. b) Click to select any check box that is not selected in the Show Severity section of the General tab. Make sure that all cards that are part of a 1+1 or Y-cable protection group must be active on the working card of the protection group and no protection switches are occurring. Step 4 Ensure that traffic carrying protect cards are in a standby state. To do so, complete the following: a) In the node view, click Maintenance > Protection tabs. b) Select each protection group listed and viewthe active orstandby status of each card in theSelectedGroup area.

Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 26 OL-23756-01 Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 DLP-U553 Manually Restore the DatabaseWhen the complete database is restored, the node does not report an event regarding the IP change; the node reboots and configures the new IP from the database. If the IP address being restored is not in the CTC network IP addressing scheme, you might lose visibility of the node.To resolve this, you must launch CTC with the IP mentioned in the table against the database backup. Refer to the table, “Manually RecordedData” intheNTP-U488 BackUpthe CiscoONS15454SDHSoftwareDatabase, on page 11 procedure for more information. Note Step 6 Return to your originating procedure (NTP). NTP-U492 Upgrade the TCC2/TCC2P Card to the TCC3 Card This procedure upgrades the TCC2/TCC2P card to theTCC3 card.TheTCC3 card supportsONS15454 SDHR9.2.1.x.TheTCC2/TCC2Pcardis compatible with ONS 15454 SDH , as well as earlier software versions. Purpose Tools/Equipment Two TCC3 cards Prerequisite Procedures None Required/As Needed As needed Onsite/Remote Onsite Security Level Maintenance or higher Downgradeproceduresfrom TCC3cardstoTCC2P/TCC2cards arenotsupported.LogintotheTechnical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/cisco/web/support/index.html for more information or call Cisco TAC (1 800 553-2447). Note Procedure Step 1 Log into CTC. For detailed instructions, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. Step 2 VerifythattheLANwiresonthebackplane are installedproperly.TheTCC3carddoesnot autodetect miswired LANconnections. If aLANconnection is miswired, aLANConnectionPolarity Reversed condition appears. For information on installing LAN wires, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide. Step 3 Verify that the node you are upgrading has ONS 15454 SDH R9.2.1.x installed. The software version is displayed in the upper left corner of the window. Step 4 Complete the NTP-U488 Back Up the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Software Database, on page 11 procedure before beginning the upgrade. Step 5 Physically replace the standby TCC2/TCC2P card on the ONS 15454 SDH with a TCC3 card. Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 OL-23756-01 27 Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 NTP-U492 Upgrade the TCC2/TCC2P Card to the TCC3 Carda) Check the LED on the faceplate. The ACT/STBY LED on the faceplate of the TCC2/TCC2P/TCC3 card indicateswhether the card is in active or standby mode.AgreenACT/STBYLEDindicates an active card and an amber light indicates a standby card. b) Open the standby TCC2/TCC2P card ejectors. c) Slide the card out of the slot. This raises the IMPROPRMVL alarm, which clears when the upgrade is complete. d) Open the ejectors on the TCC3 card to be installed. e) Slide the TCC3 card into the slot along the guide rails. f) Close the ejectors. g) In CTC node view, Ldg (loading) appears on the newly installed TCC3. The MEA (card mismatch) alarm appears because CTC recognizes a mismatch between TCC card types. Disregard this alarm; it clears by the end of the procedure. Note It takes approximately 10 minutes for the active TCC2/TCC2P card to copy the system software and database to the newly installed TCC3 card. During this operation, the LEDs on the TCC3 card flash Fail and then the active/standby LED flashes. When the transfer completes, the TCC3 card reboots and goes into standby mode after approximately three minutes. Do not remove the card from the shelf during a database transfer. Note If your active TCC2/TCC2P card resets during the upgrade before the new TCC3 card is in full standby mode, remove the new TCC3 card immediately. Caution Step 6 When the newly installed TCC3 card is in standby, right-click the active TCC2/TCC2P card in CTC. Step 7 From the pull-down menu, click Reset Card. Wait for the TCC2/TCC2P card to reboot. The ONS 15454 SDH switches the standby TCC3 card to active mode. The TCC2/TCC2P card verifies that it has the same database as the TCC3 card and then switches to standby. Step 8 Verifythatthe remainingTCC2/TCC2Pcardisnowinstandby mode (theACT/STBYLEDchangestoamber). Step 9 Physically replace the remaining TCC2/TCC2P card with the second TCC3 card. a) Open the TCC2/TCC2P card ejectors. b) Slide the card out of the slot. This raises the IMPROPRMVL alarm, which clears when the upgrade is complete. c) Open the ejectors on the TCC3 card. d) Slide the TCC3 card into the slot along the guide rails. e) Close the ejectors. When a newly installed TCC3 card has a different version of the ONS 15454 SDH software installed from the version running on the activeTCC3 card,the newly installedTCC3 card automatically copies the software version running on the activeTCC3 card.You do not need to do anything in this situation. However,loading theTCC3 card does not boot up in the normal manner. When the card isfirstinserted, the red FAIL LED stays on for a short period. The FAIL LED then blinks normally and all LEDs go dark.After loadingthenewsoftware for approximately10 minutes,theTCC3cardbecomesthe standby card and the amber LED is illuminated. Tip Step 10 If power-related alarms occur after the second TCC3 card is installed, check the voltage on the backplane. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide for information on clearing alarms. Stop. You have completed this procedure. Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 28 OL-23756-01 Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 NTP-U492 Upgrade the TCC2/TCC2P Card to the TCC3 CardNTP-U510 Upgrade the TSC Card to the TNC Card This procedure upgrades the TSC card to the TNC card on the Cisco ONS 15454 M6 shelf. Purpose Tools/Equipment Two TNC cards "DLP-G46 Log into CTC" in the "Connect the PC and Log into the GUI" document. Prerequisite Procedures Required/As Needed As needed Onsite/Remote Onsite Security Level Maintenance or higher Procedure Step 1 Verify that the LAN wires on the RJ-45 LAN port are installed properly. The TNC card does not autodetect miswiredLANconnections. If aLANconnection is miswired, aLANConnectionPolarity Reversed condition appears. For information on installing LAN wires, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide. Step 2 Verify that the node you are upgrading has ONS 15454 M6 Software installed. The software version is displayed in the upper left corner of the window. Step 3 Complete the NTP-U488 Back Up the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Software Database, on page 11 procedure before beginning the upgrade. Step 4 Physically replace the standby TSC card with a TNC card. a) Check the LED on the faceplate. The ACT/STBY LED on the faceplate of the TNC/TSC card indicates whether the card is in active or standby mode. A green ACT/STBY LED indicates an active card and an amber light indicates a standby card. b) Open the ejectors on the standby TSC card. c) Slide the card out of the slot. This raises the IMPROPRMVL alarm, which clears when the upgrade is complete. d) Right-click the slot from which the TSC card was ejected out. e) Click Delete Card to delete TSC from CTC. If the TSC card is not deleted from the CTC shelf view before inserting the TNC card, the MEA (card mismatch) alarm appears on that slot. Note f) Open the ejectors on the TNC card to be installed. g) Slide the TNC card into the slot along the guide rails. h) Close the ejectors. i) In CTC node view, Ldg (loading) appears on the newly installed TNC card. Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 OL-23756-01 29 Upgrading the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH to Release 9.2.1 NTP-U510 Upgrade the TSC Card to the TNC CardIt takes approximately 10 minutes for the active TSC card to copy the system software and database to the newly installed TNC card. During this operation, the LEDs on the TNC card flash Fail and then the active/standby LED flashes. When the transfer completes, the TNC card reboots and goes into standby mode after approximately three minutes. Do not remove the card from the shelf during a database transfer. Note Ifyour activeTSC cardresetsduringtheupgradebefore thenewTNC cardisinfullstandby mode, remove the new TNC card immediately. Caution Step 5 When the newly installed TNC card is in standby, right-click the active TSC card in CTC. Step 6 From the pull-down menu, click Reset Card. Wait for the TSC card to reboot. The standby TNC card is switched to active mode. The TSC card verifies that it has the same database as the TNC card and then switches to standby. Step 7 Verify that the remaining TSC card is now in standby mode (the ACT/STBY LED changes to amber). Step 8 Physically replace the remaining TSC card with the second TNC card. a) Open the ejectors on the TSC card. b) Slide the card out of the slot. This raises the IMPROPRMVL alarm, which clears when the upgrade is complete. c) Right-click the slot from which the TSC card was ejected out. d) Click Delete Card to delete TSC from CTC. If the TSC card is not deleted from the CTC shelf view before inserting the TNC card, the MEA (card mismatch) alarm appears on that slot. e) Open the ejectors on the TNC card. f) Slide the TNC card into the slot along the guide rails. g) Close the ejectors. The second TNC card boots up. The second TNC card must also copy the database. Do not remove the card from the shelf during a database transfer. Step 9 If power-related alarms occur after the second TNC card is installed, check the voltage on the RJ-45 LAN port. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide for information on clearing the alarms. Stop. You have completed this procedure.
