Commissioning and Power Balancing (CPB)
Commissioning The EPT planning will generate commissioning files to configure the 1830 network elements,
and Power the commissioning files when downloaded from the OMS will perform the following activities
Balancing-  Card and SFP inventory check
Introduction
 Define Optical Physical connectivity
 Set all optical power parameters
If the network topology is being configured to run in ASON GMRE layer 0 mode, we will also
use the CPB tool to download the ASON feasibility file which contains optical parameters used
by the control plane when re-computing optical trails during a network outage.
There are two types of CPB commissioning that can be run from the 1350OMS
 Provision System (using Plan)
- This procedure uses the Provision System (using plan) wizard to provision network
elements configured in a standalone environment, new network elements deployed within
an existing network, during network element expansion or on a network topology based
on FOADM network element types.
 Greenfield Provisioning
- The Commission Greenfield System (using plan) wizard commissions a Greenfield
network. A Greenfield network is one with no services or cross-connections in the system.
The Greenfield network commissioning process requires network connectivity between
the network elements and uses ASE power at each point around the ring to power adjust
and commission optical connections ready for service delivery.
NOTE:
The CPB process which is detailed in this procedure, using the OMS to download the
configuration files, is not a mandatory requirement for the OMS ASON NPA creation.
The CPB process must be completed, but the CPB configuration files can be downloaded
using the PhM/CPB either during the network deployment or in an equipment staging area.
The ASON feasibility files must also be downloaded.

1350 OMS Alarm Handling
Introduction Alarm messages on elementary objects (Network Access Points (NAP), Connection Access
Points (CAP), Connection Termination Points (CTP), Ports) are received from the EML layer,
processed and propagated to the affected objects.
These alarms are propagated to the following objects:

1- Transport entities (link connection, trail, path)
2- Topological object (node, sub-network, network)
Alarms are generated on paths, Physical Connections, Trails (both HO and MS). Elementary
Alarms are received from EML layer and processed by SDH and WDM in order to determine
the SDH/WDM object to be marked as faulty.
SDH/WDM provides for the impacted object the Alarm Severity, the Operational State and the
Probable Cause.
Alarms are forwarded from the respective manager, EML, WDM and SDH to the global alarm
view which provides alarm correlation for all alarms generated on the systems managed by
the 1350 OMS.
Alarm View To generate an alarm browser, from the OMS web portal, follow the steps below.
Step Action
1 Select Alarms from the folders on the left.
2 Double click on the Global Alarms icon to start the global alarms view.

Appendix A: 1350 OMS Optical Management System
1350 OMS 1350 OMS (Optical management system) is the Server/Client Management platform designed
Optical for 1830 PSS configuration, maintenance, and monitoring operations. The 1350 OMS
Management supports all other Optical and TDM transmission network elements within the Alcatel-Lucent
portfolio.
System
1350 OMS uses Alcatel-Lucent’s patented Wavelength Tracker™ technology at various points
along the service path to provide wavelength identification, path tracing, and power-level
monitoring that guarantee the integrity, performance, and reliability of wavelength services.
The Commissioning and Power Balancing (CPB) application is a function of the 1350 OMS
and is an embedded tool that performs:
 Provisioning of a Greenfield NE
 Provisioning of Greenfield networks of NEs
 Power-balancing of in-service individual NEs
 Power-balancing of in-service networks of NEs
