obtaining patch (or RFU) and language files
If IA700 is installed, check the size of stored messages, determine whether an update (patch) is
needed, and/or optional languages are used.
When upgrading Communication Manager to release 2.2 from a previous release, the size of
the messages stored in IA770 must be less than 72 hours due to a change in the voice
encoding algorithm from CELP to G.711. Before the going to the site, have the customer check
the size of messages stored in IA770 and, if greater than 72 hours, contact your service support
center.
To check the size of stored messages
1. On the Maintenance Web Interface, under Miscellaneous select Messaging
Administration.
2. Select System Configuration and Status > System Status.
3. Look for “Used Hours of Speech” in the list.
If more than 72 hours is reported, the customer must delete some messages before the
upgrade. Or, you can enter the Linux CLI command,
/vs/bin/util/vs_status
