Removal and Replacement Procedures (RRPs)
c. Verify the card stiffener is flush with the front of the card cage
andevenwithotherdirectorlogiccards.
5. After the replacement CTP card is installed, note the following:
— Whena CTPcard withadifferentfirmware versionisinstalled
in a director with an active CTP card, a synchronization
process occurs. This process causes firmware from the active
CTP card to be downloaded to the replacement CTP card. The
process does not occur if both CTP cards have the same
firmware version.
— The synchronization process may take up to ten minutes
(depending on director activity).
ATTENTION! Allow the synchronization process to complete. If the process
is interrupted by a director power cycle or initial program load (IPL), or by
removing the replacement CTP card, the card may be unusable due to
partially-loaded firmware.
— If after ten minutes the replacement CTP card does not appear
to be operational, perform the data collection procedure and
return the failed replacement card to McDATA (Collecting
Maintenance Data on page 4-32).
— Do not reinstall the failed replacement CTP card because this
can corrupt director firmware. Obtain a new CTP card and
perform this replacement procedure.
6. Verify that synchronization is complete by viewing the Event log.
7. Connect the Ethernet LAN cable to the RJ-45 connector on the
faceplate of the replacement CTP card.
8. Disconnect the ESD wrist strap from thedirector chassis and your
wrist.
9. Inspect the CTP card to ensure the amber LED is extinguished. If
the amber LED is illuminated, go to Chapter 3, Maintenance
Analysis Procedures (MAPS) to isolate the problem.
10. At the management server or at a web browser connected to the
EFCM Basic Edition interface, inspect the Event Log.Ensurethe
following event codes appear in the log:
— 410 - CTP card reset.
— 416 - Backup CTP installed.
