The following tasks must be completed before you can install an Avaya S8300 Media Server with an
Avaya G700 Media Gateway:
•
Meet with the customer to complete the Electronic Pre-installation Worksheet. The Electronic
Pre-installation Worksheet contains specific information about the customer's network
configuration and telephony requirements. This information is required to use the Avaya
Installation Wizard to configure the Avaya IP solution.
•
Complete the following steps to retrieve the required license files and password files from
Remote Feature Activation (RFA):
1
For an S8300 configured as a primary controller, one license file.
2
If you are using the Avaya Installation Wizard to generate basic translations on an S8300
primary controller in a G700, you need to retrieve two license files. Generate one license
file with FEAT_DADMIN turned on by selecting FEAT_DADMIN on the RFA Features
screen. Genterate a second license file with FEAT_DADMIN turned off by clearing the
FEAT_DADMIN selection on the RFA Features screen. The Modify System Record
function is used to create the second license file. This step is not required for installations
completed by Avaya authorized dealer technicians.
NOTE:
Each license file must be labeled carefully because the files will be used at different points
in the installation process.
3
Retrieve the password file.
•
Obtain the most recent versions of software and firmware on CD-ROM.
•
Obtain a USB CD-ROM drive for use at the site.
NOTE:
To use the Avaya Installation Wizard, Release 2.0 or later of the Communication Manager
must be installed on the media server. If a pre-2.0 release of the Communication Manager
is installed on the media server, the software must be upgraded before the Avaya
Installation Wizard can be used.
•
If you are using the Avaya Installation Wizard, get the customer's Electronic Pre-installation
Worksheet from your installation project manager. If, in addition, you are using the Avaya
Installation Wizard to generate basic translations on an S8300 primary controller in a G700, get
the customer's Name and Number list file and the Custom Templates. Copy these files to your
laptop. The Electronic Pre-installation Worksheet contains instructions for the Name/Number and
Custom Templates files.
•
The technician will be advised if ProVision will be used in addition to the Avaya Installation
Wizard. ProVision can be used to upload all of the Communication Manager translations.
Information on the Avaya Installation Wizard options for ProVision is in the Electronic
Preinstallation Worksheet.
