Chapter 8: Diagnostics/Maintenance

Move card location or change card type

To make changes to the card location or the card types in your Tenor CMS, you must perform software as well as hardware procedures. See below.

1.Initiate a CLI session. See Chapter 4: Getting Started with Command Line Interface (CLI) for more infor- mation.

2.After the login prompt, at the initial prompt, access the slot in which the card is located (i.e., type slot 5). The prompt for that slot will be displayed.

3.Type remove. The card will be removed from the database.

4.Power down the chassis and unplug the power cord from the unit to prevent any accidental power cycling of the CMS.

5.Follow steps 1-7 only, as outlined in the section titled Replace WAN/System Controller/CPU cards of iden- tical type in this chapter.

6.Physically remove the Rear Transition Module (RTM), if a WAN or a DS1 card slot is being changed or relocated. For more information about rear transition module cards, see Chapter 2: Hardware Components and Card Maintenance/Replacement earlier in this chapter.

CAUTION: Front application T1, E1 of DS1 cards must always be matched with their appropriate rear transition modules. DSP cards must never have a Rear Transition Module (RTM) installed behind them in the same slot number.

7.With a grounded wrist strap, install the new card or install the card in a new location, and only when required, install the matching rear transition card. This may require moving the blank face plates. Re- tighten handle lock down screws with a #1 Phillips screwdriver.

8.Replace the power cord back into the rear of the chassis and turn on the power switch. The Tenor CMS will auto detect the new cards and/or locations.

NOTE: Depending upon your network, additional configuration may be required. Consult the CMS CLI Guide for more information.
