To disable auto-provisioning of Cards when needed on NFM-P

Overview

Introduced in NSP 25.8, this procedure allows the user to stop the auto-provisioning of supported cards.

Note: This is applicable only for CardSlot, XiomCardSlot, DaughterCardSlot, and SFMSlot. This procedure does not apply to 1RU chassis or integrated cards.

Disabling the auto-provisioning of Cards

To disable the auto-provisioning of Cards, the user needs to set flag isAutoProvisioningEnabled to false and then perform the command ./nmsserver.bash read_config as an NSP user.

When the flag is set false, the cards will be brought to an unprovisioned state and will remain in an unprovisioned state, preventing auto-provisioning from occurring during Node discovery or while performing delete/remove card procedures via NFM-P.

Note: By default, the isAutoProvisioningEnabled flag is set to true and the provisioning of the cards’ behavior remains the same as before NSP 25.8.
