Migrating Hardware - Avaya S8700 Series Manual

Migrating hardware

These procedures are for migrating the hardware from existing platforms to the Avaya S8700 or
S8710 Media Server with an Avaya G650 Media Gateway. The media server can be either a
Multi-Connect configuration or an IP-Connect configuration. The migration procedures differ
significantly because in the IP-Connect configuration, few of the old cabinets can be reused
after the migration.
The existing DEFINITY platforms that can migrate to an S8700 or S8710 Multi-Connect
configuration are:
DEFINITY ECS R in a Multicarrier Cabinet (MCC)
DEFINITY ECS SI in a Single Carrier Cabinet (SCC) or MCC
The existing Linux-based platforms that can migrate to an S8710 Multi-Connect configuration
are:
Avaya S8500 Media Server with G650 Media Gateways
Avaya S8700 Media Server with G650 Media Gateways (Multi-connect configuration)
The existing DEFINITY platforms that can migrate to an S8700 or S8710 IP-Connect
configuration are:
Avaya IP600
DEFINITY ONE in a Compact Modular Cabinet (CMC)
DEFINITY ECS CSI in a CMC
DEFINITY ECS R in an MCC (cabinet cannot be reused)
DEFINITY ECS SI in an SCC or MCC (cabinet cannot be reused)
The existing Linux-based platforms that can migrate to an S8710 IP-Connect configuration are:
Avaya S8500 Media Server with G650 Media Gateways
Avaya S8700 Media Server with G650 Media Gateways (IP-connect configuration)
This section assumes that the media server complex is installed, configured, and operational.
