Database requirements

If the system is running prerelease 3.0 software or the source platform is a
Meridian 1 Option 21E, 51, 61, 71, STE, NT or XT, the database must be sent
to Avaya for conversion.
If the source platform is a Meridian 1 Option 51C, 61C, 81, or 81C equipped
with IOP/CMDU cards, the database must be converted with the Database
Transfer utility. See "Converting the 4 MByte database media to 2 MByte
database media" on page 42.
If the source platform is a Meridian 1 Option 51C, 61C, 81, or 81C equipped
with IODUC cards, the database should be data dumped (EDD) to a blank
2 MB floppy.
Note: All of the above listed system types can be converted by Avaya in
the software conversion lab. Please check the current price manual for
the requirements of this service.
Planning for an upgrade involves the following tasks:
• Read and understand the current release Product Bulletin.
• Conduct a site inspection to determine proper power and grounding.
• Review the site profile to determine proper foot space if adding new
columns or modules.
• Ensure sufficient power for new columns/modules or applications.
