2 Product Survey

Beginning with Ensemble Controller version 13.1, the Embedded License Server (ELS)
manages any required licenses which must be ordered from the ADVA Customer Focus
Team. The licenses determine the scope of system functions and features in Ensemble
Controller, and also whether you have unimpeded access to all network objects within a
Version: 1.1
particular network. Your administrator must prepare and enable the Embedded License
Server as described in the Administrator Manual and install the required licenses.

2.1 Enhancements in Version 13.3.3

ENC R13.3.3 is a maintenance release that provides defect fixes in key areas of the system.

2.2 Important Notes

• Ensemble Controller R13.3.3 release requires supplemental scripts (that need to be


downloaded from Customer Portal) to validate database integrity and MUST be executed
prior to the upgrade process. Users are strongly advised to run these scripts in their
prior release and ONLY proceed with the upgrade process if the database validity check
Version:
passes. 1.1
In case of database integrity validation failure, please contact customer support
for further assistance.
• Note that FileZilla is now a package that can optionally be installed. It is a separate step
for Windows environment, but will not be installed and started by default
• While Discovering FSP3000 R7, the user is advised to change the general SNMP settings
in Ensemble Controller to match the new default SNMP settings on the device prior to
discovery.
• The ports used for client-server communication are configured by setting the
com.adva.fnm.option.webserver.port (insecure) property and/or the
com.adva.fnm.option.rest.securePort (secure) property in the server’s fnm.properties
file. 8080 and 8443 are the default values for these properties respectively. There must
be a corresponding entry for the launcher.webserver.port_X (where X is an integer)
property in the client’s launcher.properties file in the clientupdater directory. The
configured port(s) must be open in the firewall in order for the client to run and
communicate with the server.
• Beginning with R8.3.1, server overload protection has been implemented in relation to
short term performance objects. When the server starts, short term performance objects
stored in the database are counted and if they exceed the value configured in the
com.adva.nlms.mediation.performance.watchdog.max15minPmo property in
fnm.properties, all performance collection is suspended until enough performance
templates are unassigned such that the total number of performance objects are
brought below the configured threshold. For further details see the Scaling Options
section in the NM Specifications portion of the Ensemble Controller Administrator
Manual.
• The CSV service inventory report dump file, generated by the “Service Inventory Report
Generation” regular action will have the name format: Services_<date>.csv.
• Ensemble Controller R12.1.1 and later requires licenses stored in an ADVA embedded
license server, typically referred to as ELS. This server could be installed as an option
within the ENC installation. We recommend to use this option unless you have explicitly
planned for a different option. This server requires port 7071 and 8444 to be opened.
Please refer “Accessing the Embedded License Server Web GUI” chapter in the User
Manual and to the Manual for the ELS for more details.
• The Centralized Control Plane(CPc) requires a Java Runtime Environment installed on
the computer to run properly. If you intend to install the Centralized Control Plane on
your Linux Server please make sure that a recent java version is already installed in this
server before you start installation of Linux Ensemble Controller with Centralized Control
Plane. Please contact ADVA to obtain a copy of the Network Controller Administration
manual. If you use classic Control Plane or have no active DWDM Service Provisioning at
all, you don’t need the Centralized Control Plane and consequently also no pre-installed
Java. In this case just install Ensemble Controller without the Centralized Control Plane.
• The NCU3 controller of FSP3000 F7 is not supporting the classic, distributed Control
Plane (CPd) and should for this reason not be used in networks where the CPd is in use
with the optional Ensemble Optical Director.
• If an error occurs when starting the Ensemble Controller client in a Windows
environment which states “Error occurred during initialization of VM. Could not reserve
enough space…”, the following workaround is suggested. Go to the <Ensemble
Controller Installation Directory>/clientupdater directory. Edit the –Xmx parameter of
the lax.nl.java.option.additional property in the FSP NM ClientUpdater.lax file to be –
Xmx256M. Secondly, edit the –Xmx parameter of the launcher.nl.java.option.addtional
property in launch.properties to be –Xmx512M. Then restart the client. For larger
networks lowering the Xmx attribute of the launcher.nl.java.option.addtional could lead
to out of memory exceptions.

Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

• When upgrading from a release prior to R13.2.2, the ENC client must be re-installed.
• Changes made to the FSP 3000AC using the Netconf interface can override changes
made from ENC even when the running configuration is locked on the network element.
• Beginning with ENC R13.1.x, the default theme of the ENC client has been enhanced for
better usability and includes a breadcrumb trail for navigation. This theme is called the
“ADVA” theme. No functionality has been lost as compared with the previous theme,
Version: 1.1 to as the Accessible theme. The user is able to choose between the ADVA
now referred
theme or the Accessible theme upon initial login after installation. The selection can be
changed from the view options.
• ADVA has improved software so you can manage Z4806V2 devices with the Pro-Vision
client on ENC software release 13.3. Because of these improvements, earlier releases
20.1.1 and previous are not compatible with ENC release 13.3. Z4806V2 R20.5.1 is
compatible with ENC release 13.3.
• Beginning with ENC R13.1.1, the format of the date in the notification manager was
changed from “HH:MM:SS MM/DD/YYYY” to the ISO8601 format “YYYY-MM-DD
HH:MM:SS”
• Sync Assurance users should backup the GNSS and TPA databases before upgrading to
ENC R13.3. See “Requirements to Upgrade Sync Assurance” section of the Administrator
Manual for more details.
• ENC R13.3.3 was released after ENC R14.1.1 and R14.2.1. Upgrades from 13.3.3 to
these releases may not be supported. Please contact customer support for more
information.

Note: The user should check the customer portal for the most updated copy of the release
notes.

2.3 Life Cycle Information

Ensemble Controller 13.3 is the final version of the 13.x release cycle and is treated as the
long term support version.

ordered until the end of July 2025. Support for this release will be available until the end of
January 2027 when it will reach end of life.
ADVA reserves the right to replace Ensemble Controller R13.3.3 by a maintenance release
containing fixes for defects appearing in customer networks. If this release is produced, it
will also replace 13.3.3 as the long-term support version for 13.3.x and will be made
available free of charge to customers updating from 13.1.x or 13.2.x.

2.6 Pro-Vision to Ensemble Controller (ENC) Migration

IMPORTANT

Due to the complex nature of the migration process, it is necessary to get in touch with the
ADVA Sales Representative. They will initiate the process that will guide through the
migration and provide further information. During this process, the necessary files and
documentation will be made available and potential support from ADVA side can be
negotiated.

5 System Requirements

In order to use the software download and the NE configuration backup/restore feature, an
FTP server is required which is not part of the Ensemble Controller installation. ADVA
recommends the following FTP and SCP/SFTP servers for Windows Platform:
• Windows: FileZilla (FTP); CopSSH (SCP, SFTP), free limited test version of these
Version: 1.1
applications is provided with the Ensemble Controller Installation

5.1 General System Requirements


The Ensemble Controller software is using Operating System and network resources.
Without full access to these resources, Ensemble Controller cannot work properly and may
show erroneous behavior.

Therefore, it is required that any security software such as virus scanners and firewalls are
configured to grant access to the resources that Ensemble Controller uses:

• Full read-write access to Ensemble Controller installation folders


• Full network access for Ensemble Controller executable
• No blocking for network traffic on ports used Ensemble Controller.
• ADVA optical networks is not able to support customers installing the software in
virtual environments such as VMWare ® or KVM and we can’t give any advice how to
set up virtual machines to ensure proper operation for these operating systems. We
therefore reserve the right to reject all malfunction reports raised for virtualized
systems, except the issue can be reproduced in a non-virtual environment as well.
The exception to this is that virtualized server environments are possible using
Windows or Red Hat Linux with VMWare. Other solutions are not tested and
therefore cannot be supported.

Please refer to the Ensemble Controller Administration Guide, section 1.2 Installation
Requirements for further details.

6 Installation Instructions

more details,

Note: When running the Ensemble Controller client on Windows operating systems, ADVA
recommends using 64 bit machines when managing larger networks for performance
reasons. Additionally, enabling Pro-Vision on a Windows server is only supported with the
64 bit installation on a 64 bit machine.

6.1 Migration Hints

The installation supports only upgrades from version R12.1.1, R12.2.1/2, R12.3.1, R12.4.1,
R13.1.x, R13.2.x, 13.3.x to R13.3.3. If upgrading from a release prior to R12.1.1, please
refer to the migration hints in the release notes of R12.1.1 for the appropriate upgrade
instructions and path. Please note that the upgrade of the Ensemble Controller server for
large networks may take several hours and the user is advised to not login to Ensemble
Controller client during this period.

Please make sure you have a copy of all intermediate versions before you start the upgrade
procedure. After each installation step, the Ensemble Controller server must be started once
to complete the respective upgrade step.

Please note that only the client of Ensemble Controller R13.3.3 is compatible with the
Ensemble Controller server R13.3.3.

Please close all other applications before installing Ensemble Controller.

It is recommended to double-check all output paths for Ensemble Controller generated files:

• inventory dump: <install-dir>/var/csv/


• event log: <install-dir>/var/log/
• performance data dump: <install-dir>/var/PM/
• Ensemble Controller database backup: <install-dir>/var/db.backup/

Note: Beginning with ENC R12.1.1, the upgrade process for HA configuration has changed.
Please refer to the administration manual for details.

Note: Due to security enhancements, beginning with ENC R12.3.1, the SNMP profile settings
configured for a given device must match the device exactly. In the past, for example, if the
default v3 settings failed to successfully contact the device, ENC would attempt to use the
default v2c settings. This will no longer be the case.

6.2 Installation on Windows

Ensemble Controller supports the 64 bit (to be used only with 64 supporting hardware)
windows installations.

The Windows package of Ensemble Controller includes the free FTP server FileZilla version
0.9.29 and the free SCP/SFTP server CopSSH version 5.4.2. This version of CopSSH is

17
- Classified as Confidential -
Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

packaged with Ensemble Controller for testing purposes only. It is not intended for a
production environment and ADVA does not offer technical support for CopSSH. ADVA
recommends that an up to date commercially licensed SSH tool be installed. Please refer to
the Administration Guide, section 1.2 Installation Requirements for further details.

Note: FileZilla is now a package that needs to be installed as a separate step for Windows
Version: 1.1
environment, it will not be installed and started by default

When specifying the directory on the FTP or SCP/SFTP server for Software Download or NE
configuration backup/restore in the Ensemble Controller Network Properties page, we
recommend using absolute paths only (starting with a slash), e.g. “/my-fnm-files”.

When using FileZilla this refers to the FTP user’s home directory as specified in FileZilla (e.g.
C:\FTP\my-fnm-files).

When using OpenSSH this by default refers to the OpenSSH installation folder (e.g.
C:\Program Files\OpenSSH\my-fnm-files).

SNMP Forwarder

The SNMP Forwarder Service is primarily used by the FSP 1500 Element Manager and is no
longer started by default. To start it manually, cd to the following directory: C:\Program
Files (x86)\ADVA Optical Networking\FSP Network Manager\bin

Execute the following script with Administrator privileges: StartSnmpForwarder.bat

To stop it manually, cd to the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\ADVA Optical


Networking\FSP Network Manager\bin

Execute the following script with Administrator privileges: StopSnmpForwarder.bat

The SNMP Forwarder service is set to Manual during installation. The user can set it to
automatic if they want the SNMP Forwarder to start automatically after a reboot.

• If unsupported devices(devices for which support has been removed) are found in
the database, the script will provide a warning that says “UNSUPPORTED, PLEASE
REMOVE BEFORE UPGRADE”. If these devices are not removed, the upgrade will fail.
• Copy the file fnm.properties from the Installation directory to a secure location
• Copy the Ensemble Controller Installation file to a directory on your local hard drive.
• Untar the archive:
• tar xf <tar archive>
• Start the installation program:
• ./install
• Note: The Embedded License server can be installed at this stage if it has not

• After the installation completes, you must wait until the system upgrades the
database. Refer to the 'dbupgrade.log' file located under var\log for the following
messages:
• At the beginning of a database upgrade:
INFO - =======================================================================
INFO - DATABASE UPGRADE HAS BEEN STARTED AND THIS PROCESS CAN TAKE A WHILE
Version: 1.1 TO COMPLETE. PLEASE WAIT FOR THE DATABASE UPGRADE COMPLETION MESSAGE
BEFORE CONTINUING.
INFO - =======================================================================
• Note
The upgrade process may take some time to finish, which is
dependent upon the database size, the upgrade path (number of
skipped intermediate NM versions) and the server performance.

• Upon completion of a database upgrade:


INFO -=======================================================================
INFO - DATABASE UPGRADE HAS BEEN FINISHED.
INFO -=======================================================================
• Modify the new fnm.properties in the installation directory to update any variables
you may have changed in the previous version or to set new variables available in
the new version. Use the fnm.properties file that you saved in the secure location as
a reference only. Please ensure the server has completed the upgrade process before
stopping the server, updating the file and restarting the server.
• Upon first login after upgrading you might see a message stating that ENC has no
access to ELS and consequently no license. This window also provides the hint that
either a local ELS should be installed or that the respective entry in fnm.properties
should be changed to point to the designated ELS. If you haven’t yet obtained a 12.x
ENC license please talk to your local sales representative.Cleanup
• If you have successfully logged on to the NM after this procedure, invoke the
cleanPostgresAfterUpgrade.sh script to clean up existing Postgres folders and
terminate any of its processes.

Please note that the first server startup phase after an upgrade takes reasonably more time
than a regular startup. During the startup phase client logins are rejected.

6.4 Migration from Windows to Linux

• Prepare Ensemble Controller database backup on existing system.


• Install Ensemble Controller on Linux and restore database.
• Start Ensemble Controller server.

ID Description
FNMD-46463 The "Set to Managed" menu item is only support for data services.
When replacing an OSFM module with an OSFMA module, the "In Use"
column of the Modules tab may not update dynamically. The workaround
is to click on another tab and then come back to the Modules tab which
FNMD-55418 will refresh the display.

The “OTN (Link) Layer” feature visible in the topology graph doesn’t
support the old service model (classic) trails as carried connections. If an
OTN Link is selected in the topology graph, the connection table tab
doesn’t list classic trails and the classic trails aren’t counted as traffic
FNMD-55839 (active, standby) in the link overview tab.
The names of some of the layers may be changed during the re-explore
Version: 1.1
FNMD-58391 after a reconfiguration operation.
Protection switches for OPPM line protected services in VSM mode should
not be performed from the topology graph(i.e. "Switch to Line B").
FNMD-65797 Protection switches should be performed from the service tree.
Service creation between a 2WCC10G and an UNO NE passing through
another 2WCC10G may fail if the user uses the default setting of the
facility type on the source network interface on the parameter page of the
service wizard. The user must set the source node facility type to match
FNMD-66016 the facility type of the virtual port on the UNO NE.
After service restoration or re-explorartion, custom names for certain
layers may not be preserved and the default names will be shown. The
FNMD-66418 user will have to rename those layers again.
Discovered explored Network Media Channel connections between FSP
3000C devices which are managed using the "Set to Managed" options
from the context menu cannot be modified. The workaround is to create
FNMD-66676 the explored service from the service wizard.
On rare occasions, performing a "Delete from Database" operation on a
service results in the service re-appearing in the Discovered folder.
FNMD-66689 Restarting the client will remove the service from the client display.
For services where the signal flows through a 16PSM module twice on
different ports, the layer browser and optical trace browser may not
FNMD-66793 display the position of the modules properly.
The ability to delete or “Set to Discovered” for an NFC is not supported.
However, if the last CFC associated with the NFC is set to discovered, then
the NFC will be as well. If a managed CFC is not available, the workaround
is to select a discovered CFC associated with the NFC, set it to managed,
FNMD-71322 and then set it to discovered again.

The ELS server will not function properly on machines using the “Thailand”
locale or where time is displayed in the Buddhist calendar format.
If ELS is installed with these parameters, the only workaround is to
FNMD-57733 reinstall windows and set it up using a Western calendar.
PM collection and display from ENC is not supported for device FSP 3000C

In the tab section of the ENC client, if the user hides a column, the column
resize functionality may not be available for the remaining columns. The
FNMD-65619 workaround is to switch to another tab and then switch back again.
If the user uses "Ctrl-v" to paste the password into the password field of
the ENC login screen and the password is incorrect, the client may crash
on the 2nd attempt. The workaround is to restart the client and use the
Version: 1.1
FNMD-66624 correct password.

In ENC R11.2.1, the keystore and key passwords had to be
FNMD-46253 the same.
When creating provisioned Quadflex services with non-default
Setpoint it is likely that equalization would fail due to
equalization starting before port settings are completed. The
workaround would be to issue a subsequent manual re-
FNMD-54109 From LOL equalization of service.
When the user has 2 unprotected services which need to be
stitched together, the re-explore option will not combine the
services into one. The workaround is to set the services to
FNMD-55666 From LOL discovered and then re-explore one of the services.
The automatic reconfiguration of service paths (i.e during
restoration) may not result in the correct path or proper
mismatch indication in ENC. The suggested workaround is to
execute polling of nodes and executing fix database

When you performed the Zero Touch procedure properly and turned it on,
the 100G Devices table Zero Touch Status column incorrectly showed
Not Configured instead of the correct In Progress. Now the 100G
FNMD-65371 Devices table Zero Touch Status column shows In Progress.

This table lists defects fixed in R13.2.1


ID Description
The Pro-Vision Health Monitor reported active and reserved database
connections incorrectly. Now the Pro-Vision Health Monitor reports active
FNMD-62242 and reserved database connections correctly.
After you cleared alarms, the devices did not clear automatically from the
Faulted Devices area in the Logical Map. Now when you clear alarms,
FNMD-61395 devices clear from the Faulted Devices area.
The S-Tag value in the device view Port Config/Details window displayed
inconsistent values for the S-Tag type “tagged”. Now the S-Tag value
FNMD-60543 shows accurate values for the S-tag type “tagged”.

This table lists defects fixed in R13.1.2


ID Description
Searching the Flow Config table using the device name did not work. Now
FNMD-56425 you can search the Flow Config table with the device name.

ID Description
Pro-Vision/ENC generated an information alarm every five minutes about a
link being up when the port was down on one side. Pro-Vision no longer
FNMD-59816 generates a link up alarm in this case.
After an ENC upgrade or migration the Historical Optical Spectrum
Analysis Chart only displayed the first selected channel, which was always
the first and lowest channel number shown from the selection. Now all
selected channels data displays correctly in the Historical Optical Spectrum
FNMD-59138 Analysis Chart.
In the Wavelength Services table, you could not change the Customer
Name field on a configured Wavelength Service if the Path Type was set to
Automatic. Now you can change the Customer Name field on a
FNMD-59022 Wavelength Service if the Path Type is set to Automatic.
After you cleared an event in the Remark Action Profiles table, the event
kept its original severity level and did not display “Clear” in the Severity
column. Now the clear severity is no longer supported and was removed
FNMD-56027 as an option.

ID Description
Pro-Vision generated an “Incorrect max bandwidth” error when you tried
to update the XG300 port configuration settings. Now Pro-Vision no longer
generates the “Incorrect max bandwidth” error during a port configuration
FNMD-65103 update.
Version: 1.1 Some alarms generated from an OptiDriver showed an AID with Power
Supply 2 when it should have been a Port or Fan. Now these alarms
generated from an OptiDriver no longer show Power Supply 2 in place of
FNMD-64968 something else.
The IP Address/Mask field was not mandatory when you added a Virtual
Interface through the Pro-Vision GUI, but when you saved the
configuration Pro-Vision generated a “Invalid IP Address/Mask” error
anyway. Now Pro-Vision does not generate a “Invalid IP Address/Mask”
FNMD-64957 error.
Many unnecessary debug log messages appeared in the log file. Now these
FNMD-63809 debug log messages do not appear in the log file.
When using SNMPv3, the device poller sometimes returned unexpected
OIDs which the poller logged as errors. To avoid this, ADVA improved the
log message reported when receiving a SNMPv3 out of time window error
while polling devices from “Expected SW version but got
OID=snmpModules.15.1.1.2.0, value=#” to “SNMPv3 time window out of
FNMD-63803 sync while polling <DEVICE>”.
Pro-Vision was selecting 0.0.0.0/0 for a network instead of the specified
network range while performing a software upgrade using zero touch. Now
FNMD-63573 Pro-Vision selects the correct network and device IP.
The SNMP tab System Location field allowed 0-63 characters, which
caused an error when you tried to save the device. To prevent such errors,
the maximum SNMP tab System Location field character length is now
FNMD-63557 80 characters.
Pro-Vision returned an internal error when you opened the Managed
Session window. Session exceptions are now handled when gathering
session information to display in the manage session dialog, allowing the
FNMD-63556 dialog to open.
Any action filter such as sending a trap was checking for duplicates, so
status change traps were not sent if they were not processed fast enough.
FNMD-63101 Now duplicates are no longer dropped.

This table lists defects fixed in R12.4.1


ID Description
Some LDAP users had the Password Change Required flag enabled, so
they could not log in after their password expired. Deleting the user from
ENC/Pro-Vision resolved the issue. Now the Password Change Required
FNMD-58347 flag is always disabled, and LDAP users can log in.
You were able to access the REST interface only if you logged in to the
user interface. Now you do not have to log in to the user interface to
FNMD-57799 access the REST interface.
The software incorrectly set the SAT Service Acceptance Criteria FLR on
the NE. The values between ENC and the NE now match. Also, you were
unable to set the SAT Service Acceptance Criteria FTD/FDV to less than 1
FNMD-56607 ms through ENC. You can now use decimal values for better granularity.
Inventory table filter fields performed filtering before you completed
adding the whole filter. Now you must leave the Inventory table filters
FNMD-56432 field to apply the filter.

After you changed channels mid-stream on a path using an OD-DMR10G,


the wavelength service did not build. The error message “Path cannot be
found” displayed. Now the wavelength service builds successfully in this
FNMD-54139 configuration type.
After you changed channels mid-stream on a path using an OD-1MXP200-
QC2D, the wavelength service did not build. The error message “Path
Version: 1.1 cannot be found” displayed. Now the wavelength service builds
FNMD-53496 successfully in this configuration type.

ID Description
After you performed a device reset or reboot, the message in the audit log
did not provide enough information. Now the message provides the action
FNMD-55808 that was performed, such as reset or reboot.
An OS-V8 device that completed Zero Touch remained in an “In Progress”
state. Now an OS-V8 device that completes Zero Touch does not remain in
FNMD-55428 the “In Progress” state.
After Pro-Vision users migrated to ENC, the ENC database did not display
the Pro-Vision users. Now Pro-Vision users display in the ENC database
after a Pro-Vision-to-ENC migration. However, if a Pro-Vision user’s
password includes his or her username, the migration process leaves out
FNMD-55103 that user.
OptiDriver nodes did not receive traps, and SNMP settings were not
available for that network. Now OptiDriver nodes correctly receive traps,
FNMD-54508 and SNMP settings are available.
If you deleted the snmp server from a device and then tried to configure
OptiDriver or Fiber Driver devices, Pro-Vision generated a pvautotrap bad
value(3) error. Now you can delete the snmp-server from a device and
then configure OptiDriver or FiberDriver devices without generating an
FNMD-54230 error.
An internal error occurred if you tried to change the bandwidth profile
assigned to a service endpoint when the profile currently assigned was not
compatible with the service endpoint. Now the misleading error no longer
displays. However, when you save the bandwidth profile selection for the
service endpoint and that profile is incompatible with the service endpoint,
FNMD-53837 a warning message displays.
The OS Ethernet Service MTU size was not being updated in Pro-Vision
when you performed a Device to PV sync operation. Now the OS Ethernet
Service MTU size is updated in Pro-Vision when you perform a Device to
FNMD-53784 PV sync operation.
When you used the OD-EA-VMPR2017 or OD-EA-VMPR3017 together with
the MD40 Mux in ENC, the wavelength path creation failed. Now when you
FNMD-53694 use this device combination, the wavelength path creation succeeds.
Pro-Vision did not allow .0 device IP addresses. Now Pro-Vision allows .0
FNMD-53668 device IP addresses.
The fiber type G.653 was missing from the Add Link window Fiber Type
field options. Now fiber type G.653 is an available option in the Fiber
FNMD-53500 Type field.
If you right-clicked a link and selected View Services, and then right-
clicked a service, a default browser menu opened instead of the expected
FNMD-53430 services context menu. Now the correct services context menu opens.
After you performed an NNI delete operation, the error message in the
audit log showed an incorrect port name. Now the error message shows
FNMD-53398 the correct port name.

When you right-clicked on a device in the Backup/Restore dialog and
selected View Config Files, this opened a number of files and did not
close them. This generated an error message when Pro-Vision reached the
maximum open files environment variable for a Linux user. Now Pro-Vision
FNMD-51334 closes the generated files and there is no error message.
When you tried to create a wavelength service, this generated the Error
is item(s): For input string” “0,911” error message. The Locale setting
FNMD-50360 of the server caused the error. This error no longer occurs.
The OptiDriver device view did not show any chassis connections. Now the
FNMD-50359 OptiDriver device view displays the chassis connections.
The Optical Power Summary stopped reporting RX/TX power levels after a
Pro-Vision to Ensemble Controller migration. Now the Optical Power
Summary correctly reports RX/TX power levels after a Pro-Vision to
FNMD-50333 Ensemble Controller migration.
Double-clicking a device in the Device Summary window to open a device
view generated an internal error. Instead, right-click the device and select
FNMD-50324 Device View to open a device view.
Device Configuration backup did not function properly after you added a
new device. Some devices did not appear in the Backup/Restore Devices
table, and profile changes were not updated on the device. Now Device
configuration backup works correctly, and profile changes are updated on
FNMD-49951 the device.

Pro-Vision set Netconf configuration to defaults in the OptiSwitch Device
object for legacy models which did not support Netconf. Pro-Vision now
FNMD-49378 clears the Netconf configuration for legacy devices.
Previously, there was no way for you to view the Dest MEP ID column in
the Service End Points table. Now you can view the Dest MEP ID column in
FNMD-47288 the Service End Points Table.
When you added or removed an OptiDriver module from any OptiDriver
chassis, the Device View GUI window did not update the added or deleted
slots. The Device View GUI window now correctly updates the added and
FNMD-47252 deleted slots.
Previously, you could add a device even if you did not set the SNMPv3
User credentials. Now you cannot add a device without setting the
FNMD-47211 SNMPv3 User credentials.
Pro-Vision did not generate a "device down" error when executing the
"Overview" module command for a V8-M module on a down device. Now
Pro-Vision generates a "device down" error when executing the
FNMD-46846 "Overview" module command for a V8-M module on a down device.
Not all devices appeared in the Backup/Restore Devices list. Now all

10 Historical Limitations

1. No polling available for FSP Element Manager (Rack View). Workaround:


Ensemble Controller Server should always be registered as Trap Sink in all
managed Network Elements. The Ensemble Controller server, however, makes an
Version:attempt
1.1 to register itself as trap sink for newly discovered devices.
2. If events are acknowledged using the function “Acknowledge until…” the
acknowledging user is not saved. Workaround: Acknowledge multiple
alarms/events by marking multiple or all (<Ctrl-A>) in the respective event
browser and then pressing <Space>.
3. If the GUI startup takes too long (e.g. because the server is busy) the client
session may time out before the GUI startup is finished. This leads to an error
message “Cannot load configuration”. Workaround: Typically, it is sufficient to
just restart the client. If the problem persists you may increase the session
timeout (property com.adva.fnm.option.server_timeout in file
fnm.properties).
4. If an invalid time range is entered in Report Generation empty reports will be
generated. Network names will be shown as “null”.
5. User action log for NE configuration restoration does not include the NE name.
6. When using low screen resolution, certain fields and buttons in editors may not
be visible per default. The windows size must be adapted by the user to make
them accessible.
7. On Windows the client (GUI) hangs on rare occasions. Resumes operation after a
short waiting time.
8. On Windows operating systems, if the network cable is unplugged, the
connection between client and server (both on the same machine) may fall apart,
which sometimes requires a server restart.
9. Tracked Service: The icon color used to denote a connection’s state is grey if the
state of the connection could not be set via SNMP. On rare occasions this icon
may be colored even if the SNMP commands were not successful.
10. High Availability, Operating System Windows: On rare occasions there is an error
message “Couldn't initialize SFTP basesystem”, when the primary server is
switched back to master mode, using the secondary server and ‘Replicate’ is
selected. If necessary, the database of the primary server needs to be updated
manually via FTP transfer with the DB backup of the secondary server.
11. If the user deletes all reports from the client, some report files may remain on
the server folder var/log/reportDB. These files need to be deleted manually.
12. Launching the standard Windows Telnet client from within Ensemble Controller is
not supported when running the Ensemble Controller client on a Windows x64
OS. Workaround: Configure an external Telnet/SSH client in fnm.properties.
13. In the Inventory Report (PDF and CSV) the “Order Info” field for HN4000
equipment shows inappropriate contents.
14. The Ensemble Controller server does not run on Japanese language Windows
versions. Workaround: Use English language Windows version for server.
15. On initial performance data collection for a newly discovered NE, if there are
performance bins marked as invalid on the NE then Ensemble Controller will not
collect any bins older than the invalid one.
16. Ensemble Controller allows changing the polling interval for performance data
collection. Any deviation for the default for performance data collection (short
60
- Classified as Confidential -
Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

term) may cause missing performance data (FSP 150Cx only). Workaround: Stick
to default settings (15 minutes).
17. The performance template filter per NE type always shows “Physical Layer
Performance” even if not supported by the selected NE type.
18. On very rare occasions the Network Element’s may stop responding to SNMP
Version:requests
1.1 from the Network Management System. Workaround: Use the GUI to
reset the SNMP session in Ensemble Controller for the respective NE.
19. PDF report view generation for large performance reports is inefficient. No
workaround is available. PM Reports for large subnets should be avoided.
20. File Transfer process during Software Download of a Hatteras HN4000 might fail
due to timeout, if they take longer the 8 minutes. Workaround: The minimum
required DCN speed between the Ensemble Controller and the Network
Element(s) is 64 KBit/sec.
21. Ensemble Controller may not collect all the historical PM bins for FSP 150CM
when historical bins that are invalid are present at the NE. This is a startup
condition and only occurs during the first polling of the NE. All subsequent
collection proceeds normally, but the history is not filled once an invalid bin is
reached. No workaround is currently available.
22. Network Element layer performance data is not collected for remotely un-
managed FSP 150CP. No workaround is currently available as the NE does not
support PM’s for remote devices.
23. Assignment of performance management templates to large subnets (or
assigning large templates to subnets) takes a long time. The only workaround
currently available is the advice to perform this operation on smaller subnets or
avoiding use of large templates. If the user chooses such operation, then it’s
advisable to let the operation complete without interruption.
24. In High Availability configurations, the Ensemble Controller client may fail to
reconnect to the Standby server after a switch-over. Workaround: Close the
application client and restart.
25. For FSP 150CC-825 QOS Ethernet layer port PM is not collected. The user is
advised to use the NE Web interface to obtain the data.
26. For FSP 150CP Network Elements, the System Contact and Location information
will not be restored after a NE database restore operation. Workaround: The user
will have to enter the information again using the EM interface.
27. FSP 150CM Master NE when moved to a different subnet then the remote node
may cause a connection failure from the client to the server. Workaround: The
FSP 150CM and its remote nodes must reside in the same subnet and hence be
moved together during copy/paste operations.
28. For FSP 150CC-825 Network Elements, multiple restarts can result in Ensemble
Controller showing a loss of communication via SNMPV3 due to protocol
discrepancy. Workaround: Use the GUI to reset the SNMP session in Ensemble
Controller for the respective NE.
29. Sometimes when creating a tracked service, a clock mismatch warning is raised
by the service wizard even though the ports are configured correctly. This
warning can be ignored.

30. In rare situations, it has been observed that some OTU layer and SDH multiplex
layer performance parameters were not collected completely from FSP 3000R7.
31. When a FSP 3000R7 channel module is replaced by a different type of module
(re-provisioned on the NE), then it is required to follow exactly the procedure
61
- Classified as Confidential -
Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

described in the User Manual, Replacing Hardware. Otherwise, the new module
may not be discovered properly, and hence are not selectable as connection
termination point.
32. When Service add/remove operations are performed rapidly on the same module,
the module selection page in the service wizard may incorrectly display port
Version:availability
1.1 status. Workaround: Avoid performing rapid service add/delete
operations on the same module (wait 1 min) or use the back button followed by
next button to re-load the module selection page.
33. In very rare occasion a busy cursor may be shown when navigating to the
module selection page in the service wizard. Workaround: Restart the client and
then re-run the Service Wizard.
34. To avoid PM collection issues with FSP 1500 devices, please ensure that PM
templates do not contain any unsupported Mon Types. Additionally, please avoid
assigning templates to Subnets containing such devices (i.e. assign templates to
services instead). Workaround: One should use the Element Manager to
determine the supported Mon Types and only use these Mon Types in the
template.
35. For large subnets, report generation could be slow. Workaround: Please generate
reports on subnets with 20 NE’s or less only. Additionally, for PM reports there is
a configurable limit (maxNECountperformance) which if set will warn the user and
prevent the report generation of large subnets.
36. Insertion of a new NE on a fiber between two Network elements is not supported
in the subnet editor. Workaround: Remove the link and re-create the fibers
between NEs.
37. The service wizard module selection page will always show modules with 1 slot
width even when the module is 2 slots wide.
38. When subsequent template assignments are done for the same entity (e.g. one
template is first assigned to a service and then another template is assigned to a
subnet), the last template assignment will prevail.
39. When creating Tracked Service with FSP 1500, the default admin state is set to
down. Workaround: Please set the admin state by invoking the operation on the
selected service from the Service Tree.
40. Channel Card protected services in provisioning mode for WCC10GT and
4TCC10G modules may incorrectly display the active path in the service tree icon
as well as the service editor detail display after a protection switch operation.
41. Browse Service and View Services actions are not supported in the Security
Manager for the Service Tree. Workaround: Please use “Customers” in the “Edit
View” to control authorizations of service per users in the Service Tree.
42. The Chassis View tab in the Network tree may improperly display alarms for
40CSM-2HU and ROADM-2DC shelves. Workaround: use the NED to verify the
alarms.
43. Fiber Break indication persists in the Network View Map even when the last
service is removed from the fiber.
44. If the OS system time is or time zone is changed on the system running
Ensemble Controller server, the Ensemble Controller server must be shut down
first, then change time, followed by a server restart.
45. Duplicate Unauthorized Events can be received from FSP3000R7 due to Network
Element software related issue.
46. In the context of data services, some PM Monitoring Types will not be collected
network side of 10TCC10GT-DL modules.
62
- Classified as Confidential -
Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

47. It is recommended that while using the Service Manager to create provisioned
services, any configuration changes (e.g. to the Fiber Map) made at the NE are
allowed sufficient time (5 Min) to propagate to Ensemble Controller prior to
initiating Service creation operations. Workaround: one can trigger a manual
status poll operation before performing service creation operations.
48. For
Version: 1.1FSP 150 CCf-825 devices, the ABRL-TX PM point shows the value of ABR-TX
PM Point. The user is advised to use the NE Web interface to obtain the data
49. For FSP 150 CCf-825 devices, the Parameter "Frames Marked as Green by RX
Policer" shows an incorrect value. The user is advised to use the NE Web
interface to obtain the data.
50. For FSP 1500 devices, PM’s are not collected for SDH/Sonet Performance (High
Order Path) and SDH/Sonet Performance (Low Order Path) layer.
51. Performance collection may fail to collect ‘System Up Time’ and ‘System
Availability’ monitoring types for some devices (e.g. FSP 150CC-825)
52. Force Delete operations on track services should be avoided as they may leave
counters for Folders and customers in an inconsistent state and hence show
inconsistent operational state in the service tree. Workaround: Please use the
normal delete operation on track services.
53. Mismatch alarms on services will be present in Ensemble Controller if proper
order of de-commissioning the modules is not followed. Workaround: The user
should delete the service from Ensemble Controller first, the remove the module
from the NE and finally remove the module from Ensemble Controller system.
54. Administrative Operation on the Optical Channel may result in an inconsistent
display of service detail and the status of Optical Channel in the Split Pane under
the Service Tree. The Data Service status in the Service Tree is always correct.
Workaround: Reselect the Data Service from the Service Tree to display the
updated status.
55. It is advised that the user should avoid changing the severity of the fiber break
alarm from the default critical severity.
56. It is advised that the user should avoid changing the default severities of server
generated alarms (SRV) in the events severities window as these severities will
not be reflected when the alarm is raised.
57. It is not possible to start a telnet session from NM GUI in a 64-bit Windows
system. Workaround: When telnet access to elements is required in a 64-bit
installation, use the free “putty” application (32bit) instead.
To use “putty” put the following line in the fnm.properties file:
com.adva.fnm.security.CLI_WINDOWS=C:\\path_to_putty\\putty.exe -telnet
{ip}where “path_to_putty” represents the full path to the putty.exe file
58. For 5TCE10GT-D modules service provisioning fails when the user specifies a
path and a channel number to be used for the service. Workaround: The user
should not specify the channel number and let the Control Plane pick the channel
number for the service
59. For FSP 1500 Devices, the user is advised to use the element manager to
restore the NE Database backup configuration that may have been performed
using Ensemble Controller.
60. For FSP3000R7 devices, the 40CSM OJG shelf is not supported in the Service
Wizard.
61. In a High Availability configuration when the system automatic switchover to a
standby server, the optional supplemental shell script (secondary.sh) will be
executed twice.

63

Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

62. Data Services sharing the same OCS should reside in the same Service Group
folder or directly under the same Customer.
63. For provisioned service, the user may see an error message in the message
window stating that equalization of the service has failed. Workaround: The user
may trigger a manual equalization process on the Service. The user may also
Version:ignore
1.1 such message if it is not for the first service on the tunnel
64. The user may see an error message in the performance management window
when entities are removed from the system while the PM template assignment
action is being applied. Workaround: The user can use the refresh button from
the tool bar before viewing the results
65. Provisioned services should only be deleted from the system while in the “UP”
state. This will ensure that that proper cleanup of all the entities is performed at
the NE.
66. Provision Services for 2TWCC2G7 on FSP3000R7 do not support OTU1 facility
type setting on the Network Port for GBE client service type. Workaround: The
user should provision OC48 or STM16 network facility types for such services.
67. For FSP 150CM, the user should avoid manually changing LinkLossFwdSignalType
and LinkLossFwdTrigerType parameters using the craft interface as event
notifications of such action are not sent to Ensemble Controller. Additionally,
requests that fail and must undo these parameter settings will not update
Ensemble Controller database due to missing notifications.
68. Services involving 4TCA-PCN+4GU module in ADM mode for FSP3000R7 may not
correctly display the Active Path status (either displays both path’s active or
displays an incorrect path active). Workaround: The user should run status poll
on the start and end nodes of the service.
69. Protected provisioned involving 4TCA-PCN+4GU in ADM mode do not properly
deescalate alarms on the protection path. Moreover, alarms from intermediate
modules in such configurations are also correlated to the service.
70. When there is a condition on a VCH affecting the network port or equipment, the
faulted service view will show a Service-C-Affected alarm in the faulted service
view instead of Service-N-Affected alarm.
71. The user is advised to not modify the restoration configuration (enabled/disabled)
for provisioned services after the service has been created. This parameter can
be set when the service is being created for the first time.
72. For provisioned protected services with a mixed configuration of fixed and
tunable filter for working/protection path, the user advised to retry a failed
provisioning by specifying the channel number for the fixed filter.
73. Multiple Dying Gasp Host unreachable (configuration) alarms are not handled
properly in Ensemble Controller.
74. Previously collected PM data for FSP 150CM Devices Access Port will be lost when
the media type of the port is changed.
75. When creating a restored provisioned service (“Restoration Enabled” box
checked) ensure that there is a valid signal already on the desired working and
protected paths, so that the service will not try to protection switch and/or
restore as soon as it’s created.
76. The user is advised not to minimize the Install Anywhere installation tool during
the installation of Ensemble Controller on a Windows OS. If the user does
minimize it, it's important to restore the window before the installation
completes. If the installation completes with the Install Anywhere window
minimized, it will not be possible to restore the window. The user will have to kill
the Ensemble Controller process from the task manager.

77. If Ensemble Controller is managing an FSP 1500 device and the NMS IP address
is not in the trap receiver list for the device, configuration change traps for the
High Speed Service Ports will not appear in NMS even after configuration polling.
Please make sure the Ensemble Controller is in the trap receiver list for the
device.
78. When an FSP 150EG-X device is discovered on Ensemble Controller and has
Version:TS/BC
1.1 Sync Node provisioned with multiple SOOCs protection, and the user
selects the route containing this TS/BC Sync Node, and uses “Go to slave Sync
Node” menu option to navigate to this slave Sync Node on the Synchronization
tree, the Synchronization tree path which is open as a result may not show the
active clock path to this TS/BC Sync Node. As a workaround, the user can look
for the active clock route in the Sync Map view, for this selected TS/BC Sync
Node.
79. Trap sink registration via SNMPv3 is not available on the FSP 150CCf-825 device
due to a defect on the device. Traps are sent via SNMP v2 instead.
80. Some service types and also parameters on the facility page of the service wizard
contain values required to support services provided by newer releases of the
FSP 3000R7. Some of these values may not be backwards compatible with older
releases of the device and using them may cause service creation to fail. The
solution is to make sure to provision the service with the appropriate values the
software release of the NE being managed.
81. OTU-2 services on 10TCC100G are created with EFEC as the most efficient FEC.
This mode is not support on older versions FSP 3000R7(12.x and older). Please
make sure FEC is set to GFEC when creating OTU-2 services on older versions of
the element. ADVA recommends upgrading to a current release of the device.
82. Due to a limitation on the device, NE Database Backups scheduled between 0:00
and 1:00 will fail on FSP1500 devices. The workaround is to enable the NE
backup retry and set it to 2 retries at 30 minute intervals.
83. In certain configurations it is possible that provisioning a service between NEs
with older releases will not complete successfully with an error indicating that
there was an ‘SNMP Commit Failure’. The recommendation is to upgrade the NEs
to the latest version that is compatible with the Ensemble Controller version.
84. The module page of the service wizard may allow the user to select a port on the
4TCA4G module which is not supported for the selected service type.
85. Ensemble Controller Optical Director supports setting the Error Forwarding Mode
to Laser Off on network interfaces of the 2WCC10G module. Service creation may
fail if this value is used while managing older versions of the FSP 3000AC.
86. L2 Remote PTP Slaves on OSA540x devices are not shown in Sync Director
87. After a software upgrade of the OSA5440 device, the device may appear to have
an SNMP communication failure of the switchover does not complete in under 40
minutes. The workaround is to run inventory polling on the device.
88. OCH layers created in releases prior to ENC R11.3.1 which use PM modules may
not show the correct oper state. Re-exploring the service(for explored services)
or setting the admin state to the same state it is currently in will recompute and
correct the oper state.
89. If the user uses Remote Desktop to connect to a Windows 10 machine to use the
Ensemble Controller client, the client may appear to freeze if it is open when the
RDP sessions starts. The workaround is to restart the ENC client.
90. FSP ALM devices that will be integrated to Fiber Director Server, must use SNMP
v1 or v2c during the ENC discovery process. SNMPv3 is not yet supported by
Fiber Director.
91. PM Points on XG480, XG418, XG404 devices can be collected using default PM
Profiles only. User defined PM Profiles are not supported by ENC for these
devices.
92. Explore path services are not supported for services with the Unknown Network
device in the path. Unknown Object should be used instead.
93. The Remark and Alternate Name fields in the Overview tabs of services may not
be populated properly. The workaround is to open the Modify wizard from the
65

Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

context menu of the service and then click Finish. The fields should be populated
after this step.
94. Although DCN Alarm for OSA3230B mentions SNMP in the description text, the
DCN for OSA3230B is based on TCP disconnect. SNMP is not used for OSA3230B
95. TAPI does not support:
• Protected services
Version:•1.1Services that do not appear in the multi-layer model in ENC
• NfC provisioning

10.1 Pro-Vision Historical Limitations

1. Device support is unavailable for VIF and Dummy Interfaces, service RFC2544,
service Y1564, SCP and FTP Backup, Restore, and Upgrade support.
2. When you configure or modify an OSPF Area in a dummy or virtual interface using
the GUI, the OSPF Area field is created or modified correctly, but the new or
modified entry is not added to the OSPF Areas list. To add the entry to the OSPF
Areas list, use the CLI to manually add the new row in the OSPF Areas table under
OSPF Protocol Configuration.(PV-13458)
3. Performing an SFTP upgrade on an OptiPacket does not work, and generates an
"Error (permission denied)" status message. This can occur when any user other
than the Pro-Vision NETCONF user previously performed an upgrade using the CLI
with an image name that is the same as the image name the user is trying to
upgrade from Pro-Vision. Since the owner/permissions do not match, the image can't
be uploaded and the upgrade fails. To avoid this, login to the OptiPacket, open the
Linux shell, and manually delete the old image file(s) from the "/ver" directory so
that Pro-Vision can upload its upgrade image.(PV-12867)
4. You can only set port assignments while adding UNIs/NNIs, not while updating them.
Therefore, you cannot change port assignments for a UNI or NNI that is already
assigned to a service.(PV-12146)
5. Wavelength services that use muxponder trunk ports as endpoints are currently not
supported. You should create these types of wavelength services from access port to
access port. For example, if you need to create a wavelength service between Node
A, slot 10 port 9 and Node B, slot 10 port 9 (assume these are OD-DMXP10G
modules), you will need to use any one of the eight access ports on either
muxponder as endpoints of that wavelength service.(PV-11779)
6. The configuration that follows is part of the factory default configuration for a V8-M
device. If a "Module does not exist" error is displayed when you attempt to issue any
of the VDSL module commands in Pro-Vision, verify that this configuration exists on
the device.(PV-11033)

7. No option currently exists to configure the index at the AC interface, for example,
attached to the port number .25 at eth-1/0/1.25, when you add a service to an
OptiPacket device. Pro-Vision automatically adds this service.(PV-8933)
8. After the system adds an E-Service bandwidth profile to an OptiPacket end point,
any changes you make to that bandwidth profile in the Pro-Vision database do not
automatically push down to the device. If this situation occurs, you need to manually
66
- Classified as Confidential -
Version: A Ensemble Controller R13.3.3

update the bandwidth profile directly on the device by using the chassis panel E-
Services: Policer/Shaper table. First disable the profile, save it, and then change the
profile. Save the profile again, re-enable it, and then save it.(PV-8886)
9. The outer tag is used as the sub-interface index. For example, for port 1.20 and
outer tag 214, the AC created will be eth-1/0/20.214, with outer tag 214. If you
create an AC using the CLI, you must use the same convention as Pro-Vision. It is
Version: 1.1 that the sub-interface and outer tag match. If you do not use this method
mandatory
while configuring using the CLI, you may see discrepancies in Pro-Vision.(PV-7720)
10. When you create OptiPacket services, unintended updates are made to a profile on
the OptiPacket if you have already added the profile using another service and
assigned that same profile to another service. If the Pro-Vision profile contains
changed values, the device reflects these values if the service is added or updated.
This situation occurs if you create a profile on Pro-Vision in the Bandwidth Profile
window (Policer or Shaper), create an E-Service and assign the profile, change the
profile on the Pro-Vision Bandwidth Profile window, and create a new E-Service on
the device with the profile assigned. The device updates, and Pro-Vision reflects the
changes. Both services reflect the change because multiple services share the
profile. The same updates will occur if any other services on the device change their
profile assignments to this updated profile.
11. The purpose of the Sync Config (Pro-Vision to Device) feature is to restore the
configuration after you replace an OptiSwitch. This feature has certain limitations
because if you replace an OptiSwitch, its configuration must be minimal to ensure no
dependency issues arise. For example, if the OptiSwitch has an enabled service, the
switch does not allow SNMP sets to the ports that the service uses. If you run Sync
Config (Pro-Vision to Device) on an OptiSwitch that has this configuration, potential
problems might occur. The feature currently only synchronizes objects that are in the
Pro-Vision database. If other configurations exist on the switch, for example,
configurations manually done through the CLI, you might encounter a dependency
issue.
12. The configuration for the Batch Upgrade (FTP) and Backup/Restore Config (FTP)
features are stored only in the switch, not in the database. Therefore, the Sync
feature does not support them.
13. Pro-Vision does not recognize any services you have previously created on
OptiSwitches without using the Pro-Vision service CLI. If you previously created a
service through the service CLI on an OptiSwitch before the use of Pro-Vision, any
attempt by Pro-Vision to configure a port belonging to that service will fail.
14. Currently, Pro-Vision supports only Version 2 and Version 3 trap filters for ADVA
proprietary traps. You must configure the trap client on your device as an SNMPv2 or
greater client trap in order for Pro-Vision to properly process received traps.
