Replacing the S8700 Media Server
You might need to replace an Avaya S8700 Media Server to correct a problem, such as a functional
failure of the motherboard, the hard drive, or other components. Depending on which software release
that the failed media server is running, you might need to upgrade the software on the replacement media
server and, perhaps, the existing media server.
Upgrade requirements
A software upgrade might be required when replacing an S8700 Media Server.
on page 329 describes when an upgrade is required.
Required equipment
Verify that you have the following equipment and tools on site:
•
Replacement S8700 Media Server
•
CD-ROM(s) with appropriate software load(s) — R1.2 (1.0/1.1 replacement or for R1.0/1.1
LSPs) and/or R1.3 (R1.3 replacement)
•
Ethernet crossover cable for direct connection of your laptop to the media servers
•
Cross-point (Phillips) screwdrivers (#1 and #2)
Table 74: Upgrade checklist
Software release before
Media Server failure
Upgrade requirement
Release 1.0, 1.1.x
(R011x.01.xxx.x)
If used, upgrade all LSPs to Release 1.2 software. Because the
replacement media server comes with Release 1.2 software, you
need to upgrade the existing media server to Release 1.2
software.
Release 1.2.x
(R011x.02.xxx.x)
No upgrade is required because the replacement media server
contains R1.2 software. However, a software patch, if necessary,
must be installed.
Release 1.3.x
(R011x.03.xxx.x)
Because the replacement media server contains R1.2 software,
the software must be upgraded to R1.3. You must also install the
same patch(es) as that on the existing media server. Neither the
existing media server nor the LSPs need to be upgraded because
they already have Release 1.3 software.
