Chapter 2 Alarm Troubleshooting

2.7.173 MEA (FAN)

Step 4 If any ports on the card are in service, place them out of service (OOS) by completing the following steps:

Caution Before placing ports out of service, ensure that live traffic is not present.

a.Double-click the reporting card to display the card view.

b.Click the Provisioning tab.

c.Click the Admin State column for any in-service ports.

d.Choose OOS,MT to take the ports out of service.

Step 5 If a circuit has been mapped to the card, complete the “Delete a Circuit” procedure on page 2-155.

Caution Before deleting the circuit, ensure that live traffic is not present.

Step 6 If the card is paired in a protection scheme, delete the protection group by completing the following steps:

a.Click the Provisioning > Protection tabs.

b.Choose the protection group of the reporting card.

c.Click Delete.

Step 7 Right-click the card reporting the alarm.

Step 8 Choose Delete.

The card that physically occupies the slot reboots, and CTC automatically provisions the card type into that slot.

Step 9 If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1-800-553-2447) in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.

2.7.173 MEA (FAN)

Default Severity: Critical (CR), Service-Affecting (SA)

SONET Logical Object: FAN

The MEA alarm is reported against the fan unit located inside the ONS 15310-CL or ONS 15310-MA if it has a fuse problem.

This alarm is not user-serviceable. If the alarm does not clear, log into the Technical Support Website at http://www.cisco.com/techsupport for more information or call Cisco TAC (1-800-553-2447) in order to report a Service-Affecting (SA) problem.
