582 Upgrading, Migrating, and Converting Media Servers and Gateways
Description
For more information on where and how to send the
translations, contact the STS scheduling desk at
720-444-9418.
STS updates the translations to the latest version. This
process can take 2 weeks. STS returns the translation
reports and translation files to the project manager by
e-mail who sends them to the technical support
representative.
For forms and more information, contact the STS
scheduling desk at 720-444-9418.
Whenever an S8x00 media server is upgraded from
1.x.x to 2.x.x and a new authentication file is
requested, ASG access (remote and on-site) is
impacted. You need assistance from the Service Tools
and Application Remote Support (STARS) team to
ensure successful ASG access before and after the
upgrade.
To contact the STARS team, use
gsomissrv2.global.avaya.com/request_system/
request.asp?tools_team=1
Indicate text in the ticket to notify the STARS team that
you are upgrading an S8x00 media server. Include the
date of the upgrade and the FL and product or alarm
ID of the system.
The STARS team contacts you on how to access your
product before and after the upgrade. A temporary
ASG product ID is created for you and your team to
use for access during the time of the upgrade.
If an engineer who works on the Avaya WAN, is
supporting the technical support representative during
the upgrade, ensure that the engineer has access to
the ASG Mobile tool prior to the upgrade.
ASG access (remote or on site) is affected when you
upgrade an S8xxx media server from 1.x.x to 2.x.x and
request a new authentication file.
