When I arrived at work I saw there was an email waiting for me. One of the requests I had completed and was scheduled for cut-over did not go well the night before. The in-house contractor brought in outside contractors to assist and worked at it for 4 hours and could not get it to work. So the blame came our way that something must be wrong with the cabling. We light tested the fiber link and it was good. I check the equipment and there is not any transmit laser coming of the ports. DUH! engineering problem. I email my Point of Contact(POC) along with the 30 other people attached to the message and explain what I found and suggested they need to check the configurations. I then receive a call from the POC asking me to explain what I just sent him. I read the email back to him word for word and he then again asks if it is possible it is a cabling problem. I explain AGAIN it is not and that we checked the fiber circuit from the back of one piece of equipment all the way to the back of the equipment at the other end. The links were good. The Port configurations turned out to be good also. DUH! then you need to check the hardware, the GBICs modules that plug into the equipment that allow the fiber to then connect must be bad. Troubleshooting 101. None of the geniuses thought to check to see if there was laser coming out of the equipment. As long as these type of folks work on site there will always be a need for us to be there to do the work.
I heard back from the owner of the suburban, he smoked in it so that one is off the list. Too bad it was only $3000 and had 157,000 miles.
