Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Procedure Manual page 240

Before You Begin
The ONS 15310-MA SDH prefers to designate the cards in Slots 1 and 5 as working. If a protection
Note
group can be created with Slots 1 or 5 as the working slots, then it will do so. If Slot 1 or 5 cannot be
working (due to violation of one of the other protection rules), then Slot 2 or 6 can be working. Refer to
the Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH Reference Manual for more information about card protection.
During the upgrade, some minor alarms and conditions appear and then clear on their own; however,
Note
there should be no service-affecting (SA, Major, or Critical) alarms if you are upgrading protected cards.
(Upgrading an unprotected card can be service affecting.) If any service-affecting alarms occur, Cisco
recommends backing out of the procedure.
