Removing a card that currently carries traffic on one or more ports can cause a traffic hit. To avoid this,
Caution
perform an external switch if a switch has not already occurred. Refer to the "Maintain the Node" chapter
in the Cisco ONS 15600 SDH Procedure Guide for information.
Note
If the alarm does not clear, log into the Cisco Technical Support Website at

2.6.99 IMPROPRMVL (CAP)

The Improper Removal CAP alarm occurs when a CAP is not correctly installed on the backplane or is
missing altogether. The problem is not user serviceable. Contact the Cisco TAC at 1-800-553-2447.

2.6.100 IMPROPRMVL (EQPT, PIM, PPM)

The Improper Removal equipment alarm occurs when a card is physically removed from its slot before
it is deleted from CTC. The card does not need to be in service to cause the IMPROPRMVL alarm; it
only needs to be recognized by CTC. The alarm does not appear if you delete the card from CTC before
you physically remove the card from the node. It can also occur if the card is inserted into a slot but is
not preprovisioned or fully plugged into the backplane. For ASAP card SFPs (PPMs), the alarm occurs
if you provision an SFP (PPM) but no physical module is inserted on the port, or if no SFP (PPM) is
inserted into the 4PIO (PIM).
If CTC begins to reboot a card before you remove the card, allow the card to finish rebooting. After the
Caution
card reboots, delete the card in CTC and physically remove the card before it begins to reboot. When
you delete the card, CTC loses connection with node view and goes to network view.
It can take up to 30 minutes for software to be updated on a standby TSC card.
