About This Book Circuit pack codes (for example, TN780 or TN2182B) are shown with the minimum acceptable alphabetic suffix (like the “B” in the code TN2182B). Generally, an alphabetic suffix higher than that shown is also acceptable. However, not every vintage of either the minimum suffix or a higher suffix code is necessarily acceptable.

Customers who want to migrate to the 6-/7-digit dial plan can — freeze their translations and send them to the TSO for conversion. For customers who do not have optical drives, Avaya must migrate those translations to customer-compatible media. — re-administer the switch themselves (no translation freeze required).
Customer Requirements If the system has a TN750B or earlier announcement circuit pack, customers are required to back up the announcements before the upgrade. The Avaya field technician will not do this. G3r only allows the contents of one integrated announcement board to be saved to its storage media.

Adding New Carriers and EPN Cabinets This chapter provides information on Adding carriers to an r platform in the MCC1 (multicarrier) cabinet Installing or removing EPN cabinets from a DEFINITY ECS Replacing a fan unit. NOTE: We recommend that if you are adding carriers and upgrading to a new software load that you add the hardware before you do the upgrade.
If you do not disable Alarm Origination before making changes to the switch, the switch may generate alarms, resulting in unnecessary trouble tickets. Reducing redundant and unnecessary trouble tickets is critical for measuring the quality of Avaya services and products. NOTE: For some releases of the software, disable Cleared Alarm Notification and Restart Notification fields before submitting the form.

Troubleshooting an Upgrade Software compatibility In the Software Release Letter: 1. Check the software compatibility section to ensure that software version that you are upgrading from is compatible with the software version that you are upgrading to. 2. If the from and to versions are incompatible, you must get different system software for the upgrade.
