Verifying Software Version
Note:
Note:
Since the system is now running a new software release, you must login with the
initial craft ID and password. (You cannot use dadmin at this point.)
To verify the software version:
1. Log on to Integrated Management and launch the Maintenance Web Interface.
2. Under Server, click Software Version.
3. Verify that the media server is running Release 2.2software.
The Report as: string should show R012x.01 at the beginning of the string. For example,
R012x.01.0.411.1.
Tip:
Tip:
Normally, you would need to use the Make Upgrade Permanent function on the
Web Interface at this point. However, this is not necessary for this upgrade
because there is no previous software version in the alternate partition.
Copying Files to the S8300 hard drive
During reformatting of the hard drive, a new directory, /var/home/ftp/pub, was created. For
release 2.0 and later, this pub directory will be used in place of the /var/home/ftp directory that
was used in previous releases.
You must copy the remaining required files to the pub directory on the S8300 hard drive. This
includes, but is not limited to:
●
Post-upgrade software update (patch)
●
License file
●
Avaya authentication file
●
New firmware files
