Description :
Stepbystep strategy on converting OLA to ROA
DM.
In country K, a request on converting the OSN6800
type from
OLA to ROADM, below is the strategy planned and
deploy.
Operation is successfully implemented according t
o strategy

General OLA ROADM Strate
gy
1. Prepare design + documents (ODF connection) required for the node c
onversion

2. Physical installation must be ready before node conversion; include upl
oad to NMS
and preconfigure signal flow configured as per design and optical x
connect pre
configured.

3. Health precheck on NE before node conversion (1 day before node c
onversion)

4. Required 2 team ready on the day for node conversion:
Team A in Suwon
for fiber cut o ver, troubleshooting / roll back plan
Team B in NOC
remote commissioning, troubleshooting / roll back plan

5. Health precheck on NE before node conversion (on the day of node


c

onversion)

Step 1 : OSN 6800 hardware installation and physical fiber
connection
Preparation of OSN6800 OLA ROADM hardware installation
in
Suwon
Connect all physical connection (prelay fiber as per design
plan
and DCN connection)

Step 2 : Upload OSN 6800 (ROADM) to
NMS (U2000) and preconfiguration
Basic commissioning and preconfigure accordingly to
design
Utilize new NE I D for new Suwon ROADM
New Suwon (ROADM) node

upload to NMS (U2000) and
basic commissioning according
to design










Preconfigure logical fiber
connection (signal flow diagram)
according design

SOW Node Conversion
Step 2 : Upload OSN 6800 (ROADM) to
NMS (U2000) and preconfiguration
Please take note to
preconfigure optical crossconnect (single station
optical crossconnection) from FIU to FIU for existing lambda t
hat pass
through the link

Preconfigure the optic
al
crossconnect from FIU t
o FIU
for all existing lambda

Step 3 : NE health precheck (1day before node conversion)
Check JungBul ring all NE current alarm and history alarm
and
rectify if there is alarm reported.

Check on the current alar
m of
the NE. Rectify any alarm
and
inform Huawei if occurred

abnormal alarm








Check on the history alarm of
the NE. Inform Huawei if notice
any alarm that reoccurring
frequently the day before node

insertion

SOW Node Conversion
Step 3 : NE health precheck (1day before node conversion)
Check related WDM trail that passthrough the
NonhyunSuwon (OLA)
BukCheonan_1 link




Check related WDM trail.
Rectify any alarm and
inform Huawei if occurred
abnormal alarm

SOW Node Conversion
Step 3 : NE health precheck (1day before node
conversion)
Verify JungBul ring all NE amplifier input/output power
is normal
and commissioned accordingly to design





Verify NE amplifer optical
power in Optical Power
Manangement section.
Ensure that it is
commissioned accordingly to
design











Page 10


SOW Node Conversion
Step 3 : NE health precheck (1day before node
conversion)
Verify JungBul ring all NE OSNR is normal and within
acceptable
range



Verify NE OSNR using MCA4
and ensure it is within
acceptable range

SOW Node Conversion
Step 3 : Health precheck (1day before node
conversion)
Any abnormality the equipment that currently
passthrough
JungBul ring for add/drop services ? Required
customer feedback.
Reason for this check : Avoid unwanted customer
dissatisfaction
hinting problem in our node conversion procedure















Page 12



SOW Node Conversion
Step 4 : NE health precheck (on the day execute node
conversion) and backup
Please do a quick precheck accordingly to Step 3.
Record JungBul ring all NE amplifier input/output power
value. (For
Health postcheck usage)
Record JungBul ring all NE OSNR value. (For Health
postcheck usage)
Backup NE database in NMS (U2000) before fibercut

Step 5 : Prepare live network services to use selective route
According to live network services trail, go to each
node in JungBul
ring and enter into the Port Protection interface, select
Force to
working channel or Force to protection channel to
lockdown the
working route of all services to avoid route that
passthrough Suwon
(OLA)


Always remember to select
Query to refresh the
switching status before
proceed to select the
forced route.

Step 6 : Deletion of WDM trails
Select delete from network layer for
OMS, OCS, OCH & Client trail
which pass through NonhyunSuwon (OLA)
BukCheonan_1 link







Select delete from netwo
rk
layer for OMS, OCS, OCH
&
Client trail.

Step 7 : Create logical fiber connection in NMS
Delete existing logical fiber connection between
NonhyunSuwon (OLA)
BukCheonan_1 link
Establish new logical fiber connection between
NonhyunSuwon (OLA)
BukCheonan_1 link

Delete old logical fiber
connection and connect new
logical fiber connection

Step 8 : Fiber cutover
Inform customer NOC on services disruption and node
conversion
execution during preplanned downtime window
Disconnect existing NonhyunSuwon (OLA) fiber
and reconnect existing
fiber to Suwon (ROADM)
Disconnect existing BukCheonan_1Suwon (OLA) fiber
and reconnect
existing fiber to Suwon (ROADM)

Suwon (OLA)

SOW Node Conversion
Step 9 : Commission the optical power for the new Suwon (ROADM)
Please start commission in 1 direction follow by another
direction
Ensure the amplifier is optical power output according to
design (Design
Output = Design Input *OA Type) OBU103 = 23, OAU101 = 20

Step 10 : Update the WDM trail
Search for updated WDM trail and verify new WDM trail in
Manage WDM trail interface; ensure alarm status is normal
Create WDM trail; manually change the name of the trail
if the
automatically selected is not accordingly to customer
standard







Search for updated WDM t
rail
and verify the new WDM tr
ail
status. Rectify any alarm
and
inform Huawei if occurred




abnormal alarm

Page 19





SOW Node Conversion
Step 11 : NE health postcheck (after finish commission
optical power)
Please go through Step 3 for postcheck
Rectify any alarm and inform Huawei if occured any
abnormal
alarm
Please take note to ensure all NE amplifer
input/output optical
power is normal and OSNR is within acceptable range
Release the force route by select Clear option
in the Port
Protection interface for all involved node

Once Step 11 is
finish; NODE
CONVERSION SUCCESSFUL !

Step 1 : Roll back Process
Roll back will kick off, if scenario below after fiber cutover
materialized
Commissioning optical power fail bring up services
Unable to rectify abnormal alarm which affect services
Ensure sufficient times is available (2hours) for the roll back
Restore fiber connection as before fiber cutover
Please go through Step 3 for post chec k
