On Site Preparation For The Installation; Install The New License File, If Necessary - Avaya G700 Installation And Upgrades

On Site Preparation for the Installation

Perform these tasks before starting the software installation on the S8300.

Install the New License File, If Necessary

For new installations, you typically need to load a licences file.
Note: If the S8300 is already set up for remote access, Avaya services personnel can
copy new license and authentication files directly into the FTP directory on the
server. Avaya personnel will notify you when the new files are in place as agreed
(for example, by telephone or E-mail). After they are loaded into the FTP
directory, install them using the
screens from the S8300 main menu web-page.
Note: Before an upload or download, be sure the S8300 FTP directory (/var/home/ftp)
contains no files with a .pwd or .lic extension. Only one of these files can exist in
a directory. If one exists, move, rename, or delete it.

CAUTION:
After you install new license and authentication files, be sure to run save translations.
