Upgrading a Multicarrier G2

Universal Module to Avaya
DEFINITY Server R EPN running
Avaya MultiVantage Software
This chapter provides the information necessary to upgrade a DEFINITY G2
universal module to an Avaya DEFINITY Server R EPN running Avaya
MultiVantage software for standard, high, and critical reliabilities.
Upgrading this system means installing a new multicarrier cabinet (MCC1) PPN
and converting the existing PPN to an EPN. The new multicarrier cabinet always
serves as the PPN. Converting an EPN requires changing, and often
restructuring, the expansion interface circuit packs and the hardware, including
replacing the control carrier.
This upgrade assumes that the MCC1 cabinet has already been installed. If not,
refer to Multicarrier Cabinets installation instructions in the Made Easy tools
(http://made-easy.avaya.com/) to install the MCC1 cabinet. Return to this chapter
when finished.
Administrator's Guide for Avaya MultiVantage Software lists features and
functions and provides the commands, procedures, and forms.
The upgrade follows this general process:
Preliminary Procedures
Remove Module Control Carrier(s)
Install Expansion Control Carrier(s)
Interconnect Port Networks
