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.

Upgrading R5si/R6si to an Avaya DEFINITY Server R EPN running Avaya Communication Manager Busyout MMI Circuit Packs (H/C only) CAUTION: Multimedia-to-voice station calls are not preserved on an upgrade. Failure to busy-out the TN787 Multimedia Interface (MMI) circuit packs results in unusable TN787 and TN788 Multimedia Voice Conditioner ports.
Convert to SCC EPN Convert to SCC EPN As you are wiring the PPN installation, label the MDF with the new PN number of the SCC PPN. The STS software upgrade assigns the next PN number (after the highest numbered PN in the Release 5/6si system) to the upgraded EPN. Check Link Status 1.
Powering down the PPN causes important system data, such as BCMS data, records of queued ACD calls, Automatic Wakeup requests, and Do Not Disturb requests to be lost. Refer to Maintenance for Avaya DEFINITY Server SI, for information about preparing the system for a power down.
Convert to SCC EPN Disconnect Power and Ground 1. Disconnect the cabinet power cords from the rear of each cabinet. 2. Disconnect the 10 AWG (#25) (2.6 mm ) coupled bonding conductor wire. 3. Disconnect the 6 AWG (#40) (4.1 mm ) cabinet ground wire from the ground bar in the cabinet.
Upgrading R5si/R6si to an Avaya DEFINITY Server R EPN running Avaya Communication Manager Remove the Existing Control Cabinet Because the control cabinet is at the bottom of the port network, you must first dismantle the cabinet stack.

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.

1. Install the CSU as shown in Figure 7-18. For some installations (such as a DS1 converter), use a Y-cable to connect the Avaya Media Gateway to the quad cable. Table 7-17 shows the Y-cable lengths. Be sure to label all cables.
Fiber Link Administration This appendix describes the steps required to administer fiber links. Before starting the administration process, verify the following: 1. Be sure all fiber optic transceivers and all fiber optic cables are correctly installed on the DS1 and/or DS1 converter circuit packs. 2.

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.
