DLP- D245 Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (UNIX)

DLP-D245 Use the Reinitialization Tool to Clear the Database and Upload Software (UNIX)

Purpose	This task reinitializes the ONS 15454 SDH using the CTC
	reinitialization (reinit) tool on a UNIX computer. Reinitialization
	uploads a new software package to the TCC2/TCC2P cards, clears the
	node database, and restores the factory default parameters.
Tools/Equipment	ONS 15454 SDH System Software CD, Version 7.2
	JRE 1.4.2 or JRE 5.0 must be installed on the computer to log into the
	node at the completion of the reinitialization. The reinitialization tool
	can run on JRE 1.3.1_02, JRE 1.4.2, or JRE 5.0.
Prerequisite Procedures	DLP-D60 Log into CTC, page 17-49
Required/As Needed	As needed
Onsite/Remote	Onsite or remote
Security Level	Superuser

Step 1 Insert the system software CD containing the reinit tool, software, and defaults database into the computer CD-ROM drive. If the CTC Installation Wizard appears, click Cancel.

Step 2 To find the recovery tool file, go to the CISCO15454SDH directory on the CD (usually /cdrom/cdrom0/CISCO15454SDH).

Step 3 If you are using a file explorer, double-click the RE-INIT.jarfile. If you are working with a command line, run java -jarRE-INIT.jar. The NE Re-Initialization window appears (Figure 19-12).

Step 4 Complete the following fields:

•GNE IP—If the node you are reinitializing is accessed through another node configured as a GNE, enter the GNE IP address. If you have a direct connection to the node, leave this field blank.

•Node IP—Enter the node name or IP address of the node that you are reinitializing.

•User ID—Enter the user ID needed to access the node.

•Password—Enter the password for the user ID.

•Upload Package—Check this box to send the software package file to the node. If unchecked, the software stored on the node is not modified.

•Force Upload—Check this box to send the software package file to the node even if the node is running the same software version. If unchecked, reinitialization will not send the software package if the node is already running the same version.

•Activate/Revert—Check this box to activate the uploaded software (if the software version is later than the one installed) or revert to the uploaded software (if the software version is earlier than the one installed) as soon as the software file is uploaded. If unchecked, the software is not activated or reverted after the upload, allowing you to initiate the functions later from the node view Maintenance > Software tab.

•Re-init Database—Check this box to send a new database to the node. (This is equivalent to the CTC database restore operation.) If unchecked, the node database is not modified.

•Confirm—Check this box if you want a warning message displayed before any operation is performed. If unchecked, reinitialization does not display a warning message.

•Search Path—Enter the path to the CISCO15454SDH folder on the CD drive.
