Job Aid: Replacing the S8300 Media Server or
its Hard Drive
This job aid describes the procedures to replace an installed S8300 Media Server or its hard drive.
NOTE:
In this Job Aid, the term "S8300 hardware" is used to refer to either the S8300 Media Server circuit
pack, including its hard drive, or to just the S8300 hard drive.
Assumptions
The following items are assumed for the successful completion of this replacement procedure. If any of
these assumptions do not apply to your scenario, some steps in the on-site replacement procedures may
need to be modified:
The existing S8300 hardware may or may not be functional.
The S8300 may be configured as a primary controller or as an LSP.
The following information is available:
— customer FTP server IP address, login, and password
— contents of a Pre-Installation Worksheet
The technician is familiar with the connection and access methods to the S8300, including setting
up a direct connection to the S8300 Services port and using the Maintenance Web interface.
NOTE:
See Installation and Upgrades for the G700 Media Gateway, 555-234-100, for detailed information
about setting up connections to the G700 and S8300 and the associated laptop configurations.

Summary of Contents for Avaya S8300

  • Page 1 This job aid describes the procedures to replace an installed S8300 Media Server or its hard drive. NOTE: In this Job Aid, the term "S8300 hardware" is used to refer to either the S8300 Media Server circuit pack, including its hard drive, or to just the S8300 hard drive.
  • Page 2 Job Aid: Replacing the S8300 Media Server or its Hard Drive Before you go to the site There are seven possible scenarios for replacing the S8300 hardware, as summarized in the table below. Each scenario requires a slightly different pre-installation preparation and a slightly different installation procedure.
  • Page 3 CDs, patches, and firmware files before going to the site. When the S8300 hardware is replaced, you need to reconfigure the S8300 Media Server. The easiest way to do this is to back up the configuration data from the original hardware and do a full restore to the new hardware.
  • Page 4 Job Aid: Replacing the S8300 Media Server or its Hard Drive For scenario 7 — if the software release on the original hardware is unknown, check to see if the software release on the new hardware is the latest GA bug-fix load. If not, obtain a CD with the latest GA bug-fix load.
  • Page 5 Step NOTE: If the S8300 hardware is not functional, skip Steps 2 and 3 and continue with Step 4 . Check to see if the new hardware has a higher software release than the current system. If so, upgrade the media server software on the original hardware to the same release as is on the new hardware.
  • Page 6 Install the new hard drive or S8300 Media Server. CAUTION: Be sure to wear a properly grounded ESD wrist strap when handling the S8300 Media Server, hard drive, and the (optional) CWY1. Place all components on a grounded, static-free surface when working on them.
  • Page 7 S8300 circuit pack. Insert both the LED panel and S8300 circuit pack about 1/3 of the way into the guides (the guides are in slot V1 for the S8300 and above slot V1 for the LED panel). Push both circuit packs (together) back into the guides, gently and firmly, until the front of each circuit pack aligns with the front of the G700.
  • Page 8 Check for and resolve any new alarms. Test as appropriate — for example, make station and trunk calls. Save translations. If the S8300 on which you replaced the hardware is configured as an LSP, save translations on the primary controller, not the LSP.
