3 High-Risk Hardware Operations

High-risk hardware operations include installing boards and replacing boards, both of whichhave the same impact. Exercise cautious when deciding to install or replace a board because thisoperation may interrupt services or result in a system power outage. Perform this operation assoon as possible when the traffic is light to reduce the impact on the system.

High-Risk Operations Impact

8.3 Replacing an AEUaBoard

l Replacing the standby AEU has no adverse impact on thesystem. When no standby AEU is in position, replacingthe board disrupts services carried on this board.

l If the BSC6900 and its peer equipment are connectedthrough only the AEU board, the ongoing servicesbetween the BSC6900 and its peer equipment aredisrupted when you replace the AEU board.

8.4 Replacing an AOUaBoard8.5 Replacing an AOUcBoard

l Replacing the standby AOU has no adverse impact on thesystem. If no standby AOU is in position, replacing theboard disrupts services carried on this board.

l If the BSC6900 and its peer equipment are connectedthrough only the AOU board, the ongoing servicesbetween the BSC6900 and its peer equipment aredisrupted when you replace the AOU board.

8.6 Replacing a DPUa/DPUb/DPUc/DPUd/DPUe/DPUf Board

Context

CAUTIONl To avoid damage to the boards, ASIC chips, or other electronic components, wear an ESD

wrist strap properly. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is properly connected to the ESDconnector on the cabinet. If no ESD wrist strap or no proper grounding point is available,wear ESD gloves.

l It is recommended that you need to use the same board type to replace the old board. To usea board of the different version to replace the board (for example, use a board of version ato replace a board of version b), contact Huawei for technical support.

CAUTIONl Replacing the standby EIUa has no adverse impact on the system. Replacing the EIUa board

that works independently, however, disrupts services carried on this board.l If the BSC6900 and its peer equipment are connected through only the EIUa board, the

ongoing services between the BSC6900 and its peer equipment are disrupted when youreplace the EIUa board.

Procedure

Step 1 Run the LST SUBRACK command to query the backup status of the EIUa board to be replaced.

Scenario: Old OMU Running Suse Linux and New OMU Running Dopra Linux

This section describes how to replace the standby OMU on BSC6900 configured with two OMUswhen the operating system on the OMUs to be replaced is Suse Linux and that on the new OMUsis Dopra Linux.

Prerequisitesl A new OMU board is ready, and it is of the same type as the board to be replaced.

NOTE

The OMUc board only runs the Dopra Linux OS.

Context

When the new OMU board runs a different OS from that of the OMU board to be replaced, it isrecommended that you switch the OS of the new OMU board to that of the old OMU board.This takes care of the user operation habit.

CAUTIONl To protect the OMU board from the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), wear an ESD wrist strap

and insert its connector into the ESD socket on the cabinet before replacing the board. Fordetailed operations, see Wearing an ESD Wrist Strap. If an ESD wrist strap or ground pointis unavailable, wear a pair of ESD gloves instead.

Procedurel Stop the synchronization between the active OMU and the standby one and the omud

serviece.

1. Run the MML command STP DATASYNC to stop the synchronization between theactive OMU and the standby one.

2. Run the MML command DSP OMU to check the status to make sure thesynchronization between the active OMU and the standby one is stopped.

3. Go to standby OMU, choose Start > Run, type cmd and press Enter to enter thecommand mode. Run net stop omud to stop the omud serviece.

l Install Suse Linux.

1. On the LMT PC, use EasyInstall to prepare an installation source for Suse Linux. Fordetails, see Preparations for Reinstalling the OMU Operating System and Creatingthe Operating System Installation Source.

2. Connect the local computer to the debugging Ethernet port on each of the new OMUs.

Contextl Replacing an OMU board will disconnect the OMU board from the host boards. System

operation data during this period will lose.l In this scenario, the operating system (OS) of the OMUc board is Dopra Linux OS after

the replacement no matter which OS is used by the board to be replaced because the OMUcboard can only support Dopra Linux OS.

l When an OMUa or OMUb board in single-OMU mode is damaged, two OMUc boards arerecommended to replace the OMUa or OMUb board.

OMUc boards can be used to replace OMUa or OMUb boards. The replacement scenarios areas follows:

Scenario: Replacing Two OMUa or OMUb Boards with Two OMUc Boards

This section describes how to replace two OMUa or OMUb boards with two OMUc boards.

Prerequisitesl You have logged in to the LMT. For detailed operations, see Logging In to and Logging

Out of the LMT.l Two new OMUc boards are ready.

Context

Co-Existence of OMU Boardsl Short-term co-existence of OMU boards is supported. When an OMUc board is used to

replace an OMUa or OMUb board, the OMUc board and the OMUa or OMUb board canbe inserted into the slots and co-exist for a short period, so that data can be transferred fromthe OMUa or OMUb board to the OMUc board.

l Long-term co-existence of OMU boards in slots is not supported because the active andstandby OMU boards must be of the same type for commercial delivery in existing network.For example, both active and standby OMU boards must be OMUa boards or OMUc boards.

CAUTIONl To protect the OMU board from the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), wear an ESD wrist strap

and insert its connector into the ESD socket on the cabinet before replacing the board. Fordetailed operations, see Wearing an ESD Wrist Strap. If an ESD wrist strap or ground pointis unavailable, wear a pair of ESD gloves instead.

Procedure

Step 1 Run the DSP OMU command to query information about the OMU and record the queriedinformation in Records of the OMU Application Installation Information.Record Sheet of OMU Software Installation Information of the OMU board to be replacedrecords the following information:l Administrator password

Step 3 Run the RMV BRD command to remove the standby OMUa or OMUb boards.

Step 4 Run the ADD BRD command to add an OMUc board in the slot where the removed standbyOMU board originally resides, that is, the slot marked green in Figure 8-13.

Step 5 Remove the standby OMU board. For detailed operations, see Replacing an OMU board thatis configured with new ejector levers or Replacing an OMU board that is configured withold ejector levers.

Step 6 Install the first OMUc board in the active and standby slots of the OMUa or OMUb board. Theseslots are the green slots shown in Figure 8-13.

The OMUa or OMUb board is twice the thickness of other OMU boards. Two OMUa orOMUb boards are installed in the slots in blue, yellow, and red frames, as shown in Figure8-13. Between two adjacent OMUa or OMUb boards, one is active and the other is standby.

The first OMUc board used for replacement must be installed in the green slots in the blue,yellow, and red frames.

Example 1: Two OMUa boards are installed in the slots 20 through 23 before replacement. Slots20 and 21 house the active OMUa board. Slot 22 and slot 23 are for the standby OMUa board.Perform the following operations to replace OMU boards:

1. Remove the OMUa board installed in slots 22 and 23.2. Install the first OMUc board in slot 23.

Example 2: Two OMUa boards are installed in the slots 20 through 23 before replacement. Slot20s and 21 house the standby OMUa board. Slots 22 and 23 house the active OMUa board.Perform the following operations to replace OMU boards:

l Short-term co-existence of OMU boards is supported. When an OMUc board is used toreplace an OMUa or OMUb board, the OMUc board and the OMUa or OMUb board canbe inserted into the slots and co-exist for a short period, so that data can be transferred fromthe OMUa or OMUb board to the OMUc board.

l Long-term co-existence of OMU boards in slots is not supported because the active andstandby OMU boards must be of the same type for commercial delivery in existing network.For example, both active and standby OMU boards must be OMUa boards or OMUc boards.

Two solutions can be adopted for the OMU replacement in terms of synchronizing data duringthe replacement:

l Solution 1: When slots beside the OMUa or OMUb board in single-OMU mode are emptyand available, the OMUa or OMUb board can be replaced by the OMUc board throughshort-term co-existence of OMU boards.

l Solution 2: When slots beside the OMUa or OMUb board in single-OMU mode are notempty and available, the data of the OMUa or OMUb board can be copied onto the OMUcboard to complete replacement.

CAUTIONl To protect the OMU board from the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), wear an ESD wrist strap

and insert its connector into the ESD socket on the cabinet before replacing the board. Fordetailed operations, see Wearing an ESD Wrist Strap. If an ESD wrist strap or ground pointis unavailable, wear a pair of ESD gloves instead.

Procedurel Check whether slots beside the OMUa or OMUb board are empty and available for

installing the OMUc board.

The OMUa or OMUb board is twice the thickness of other OMU boards. Two OMUa orOMUb boards are installed in the slots in blue, yellow, and red frames, as shown in Figure8-14. Between two adjacent OMUa or OMUb boards, one is active and the other is standby.

The first OMUc board used for replacement must be installed in the green slots in the blue,yellow, and red frames.

Example 1: An OMUa board is installed in the slots 20 and 21 before replacement.Replacing operations are as follows:

1. Install the first OMUc board in slot 23.

2. Remove the OMUa board installed in slots 20 and 21.

3. Install the second OMUc board in slot 22.

Example 2: An OMUa board is installed in the slots 22 and 23 before replacement. Performthe following operations to replace OMU boards:

1. Install the first OMUc board in slot 21.

2. Remove the OMUa board installed in slots 22 and 23.

3. Install the second OMUc board in slot 20.

Table 11-1 Description about the bits

Bit Description

1-5 Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is theleast significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bitis set to OFF, it indicates 1.

6 Odd parity check bit

7 Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON

8 (the most significantbit)

Startup type of the subrack, generally set to OFFNOTEl For the inventory sites upgrading from BSC6000, BSC6810 to

BSC6900, keep the former settings.

l For the new sites in BSC6900, the bit is conservative and is fixed toOFF.

CAUTIONl You must set the DIP switch before powering on the subrack. The setting after the power-

on is invalid.

Principle of the DIP Switch Setting

As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an oddnumber. The method for setting the bits is as follows:

1. Set bit 1 to bit 5 as required.

2. Set bit 7 to ON.

3. Set bit 8 to OFF.

4. Check the number of 1s in the seven bits of the DIP switch.

l If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF.

l If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON.

Table 11-2 describes the setting of the DIP switch in the case.

NOTE

l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottomplate, so the DIP switches are not exposed.

l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 11-2, there are twosquare holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Throughthe two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the sub-board, and therefore you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 11-2 is toturn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4,S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bitsof S10 to OFF, turn them inwards.

l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency betweenthe physical setting of S10 on the AEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting bycommand as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SETE1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode,E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support forbalanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you mustalso manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalancedmode.

l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxialcable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signalsare transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted paircable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.

Description of the DIP Switches

DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the AEUa board are used to enable or disable the groundingof 0 to 31 E1s/T1/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 11-3 describes S2, S4, S6,S8, and S10.
