Server R running Avaya Communication Manager
555-233-115
2-2
Issue 7 November 2003
Hardware replacement
This upgrade requires 2 hardware replacement phases. Follow this general
process for this upgrade:
1.
■
TN1656 tape drive replaced with TN2211 optical drive
■
UN332B MSSNET replaced with UN332C MSSNET circuit pack
This requires a service interruption for standard reliability. It does not,
however, cause a service interruption for high or critical reliability.
2.
Phase 2 Hardware Addition/Replacement
■
Add 1 or 2 TN1650B memory circuit packs, bringing the system total
to 4.
■
Replace UN330B Duplication Interface circuit packs if they are not
Vintage 3 or later.
■
Replace the TN1657 disk drive if it is not Vintage 9 or later.
■
To complete the upgrade you will remove/unseat the disk drive to
boot from the removable media.
This requires a service interruption for all reliabilities.
The upgrade should take no longer that 2 hours for a high or critical reliability
system and less time for a standard reliability.
NOTE:
The upgrade software command is not used in this upgrade. After the 4th
memory circuit pack is added and the SPE reboots from the removable
media, then Avaya Communication Manager becomes the call-controlling
software.
After the upgrade commands such as test tape become test
removable-media.
