Installing the server and peripheral devices
Warning:
Do not connect the server to the power yet.
Important:
The 1006r server is supplied with industry standard 48.3cm (19 in.) rack rails that can
accommodate racks with a maximum depth of 76.2 cm (30 in.) between the mounting posts.
Check the rack you are using and ensure that the Avaya supplied server rack rails are
suitable for your specific installation requirements.
The 1006r server can not be installed in cabinets less than 58.4 cm (23 in.) in depth between
posts.
Avaya recommends that you purchase a third-party rack shelf that can safely hold up to
34 kg (75 lb.).
What is next?
Connect peripheral devices as described in the remainder of this chapter.
Installing a High Availability system
The High Availability configuration is only supported on the 1005r and 1006r platforms.
In a High Availability configuration, a pair of peer Avaya CallPilot
a single server. Both servers are connected to the same switch and are configured so that one
Avaya CallPilot server is active (that is, processing calls) and the other is standing by, ready
to take over for the first server if the active server fails due to a predetermined failure condition.
The High Availability feature supports both automatic failovers, where the software detects an
error condition and triggers a failover to the standby server, and manual failovers which are
administrator initiated.
Important:
The pair of High Availability servers must be the same type of server, for example either
both 1005r or both 1006r. A mixture of servers is not supported in a High Availability pair.
For a High availability system, Avaya recommends that you install both servers on the same
rack, preferably one server directly below the other. This allows for greater ease in
administration. Clearly label each server for easy identification.
