Chapter 2: Replace the Avaya S8800 Server
This chapter describes the procedure to replace the Communication Manager S8800 1U Server and its
hardware components.
The procedure to replace the Avaya S8800 Server with a simplex configuration is similar to the procedure
to replace the Avaya S8800 Server with a duplex configuration. However, if you are replacing the Avaya
S8800 Server with a duplex configuration, make sure that the good server is in the active mode and the
defective server is in the stand by mode. If necessary, interchange the servers. For more information, see
Interchanging and busying out the server
You must carefully read the safety information before replacing the Avaya S8800 server and its
components. For details about the safety information, see the following section.

Safety information

General safety information

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:
• Observe good housekeeping in the area of the system units during and after
maintenance.
- Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, away from all personnel, while
you service the system unit.
- Keep your tool case away from walk areas so that people do not trip over the tool
case.
• When lifting any heavy object:

a. Verify that you can stand safely without slipping.
b. Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
c. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt to
lift.
d. Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg muscles. This action removes
the strain from the muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any objects that
weigh more than 16 kg (35 lb.) or objects that you think are too heavy for
you.
