the data stored in the NANT-D.

External specification
Reconfiguration shall be achieved by means of
Retrieving the NANT-D configuration by means a database backup
Mapping the NANT-D faceplate ports to the NANT-E faceplate ports in the
IHUB configuration file:
1-to-1 mapping from NANT-D to NANT-E (no cable swaps are expected e.g. the only
NANT-D xfp port becomes NANT-E xfp port 1 and the other NANT-D sfp ports are
mapped to NANT-E xfp:2..4):
– nt-a:sfp:1..3 -> nt-a:xfp:1..3
– nt-a:xfp:1 -> nt-a:xfp:4
– ntio faceplate names remain unchanged.
Script usage will be similar to NANT-A to NANT-D conversion but currently
no command options are foreseen
