Shutdown Multivantage Software (Only When The S8300 Is An Lsp); Upgrade The S8700 (Only When The S8300 Is An Lsp) - Avaya G700 Installation And Upgrades

5 Upgrading an Existing G700 with an S8300 (Primary Controller or Local Survivable Processor):
Install New Firmware on Other G700 Media Gateways (Remote, No Stack
Configuration)
Begin
If additional G700 media gateways are supported in the configuration, but they are not attached as
a stack, then you must configure each G700, with all of its devices, including the P330 processors.
Additionally, you must check firmware and update the firmware as required.
- Repeat the steps in the section
G700 Media Gateways in the configuration.
End
Shutdown MultiVantage Software (Only When
the S8300 is an LSP)
You upgrade the S8300 as an LSP at the same time as the S8700 primary controller because they must be
running the same MultiVantage Software version. As a result, before you upgrade the S8700, you need to
shut down the MultiVantage Software on the S8300. This prevents the phones and other endpoints attached
to the G700 from trying to register with the S8300 LSP while you are upgrading the S8700.
Begin
Return to your telnet window.
1.
At the Linux command line, type stop -acfn and press
2.
The S8300 shuts down MultiVantage Software.
End
Upgrade the S8700 (Only When the S8300 Is an
LSP)
When upgrading an S8300 serving as an LSP, you first upgrade the LSP before you upgrade the
S8700 primary controller. At this point, you are finished upgrading the S8300 LSP. Now you should
upgrade the S8700.
!
CAUTION:
This administration applies only to an S8700 that serves as the primary controller. Because
the S8300 is an LSP in an S8700 network, the S8300's MultiVantage Software must remain
shutdown while you upgrade the S8700. When you complete the S8700 upgrade, run save
translations on the S8700, which will automatically cause the G700's endpoints to
reregister with the S8700.
Follow procedures in the S8700 documentation for upgrading the S8700 on the '' Avaya S8300 and
S8700 Media Server Library CD, 555-233-825.''
