Avaya IP Office 8.1 Product Description page 454

Upgrade Impact
Customers who already have Preferred Edition will not need to buy an Essential Edition license for their system.
The Essential Edition license will be applied once the R8 upgrade license has been applied. Customers that
already have Power Users or Mobile Workers but no Preferred Edition will need to buy a Preferred Edition
license for their system.
For single site IP Offices with Preferred and or Advanced Edition there is no additional impact. These customers
will have no upgrade issues.
For multisite network with centralized voicemail there is no upgrade issue. It is recommended that the customer
upgrade (first) to the IP Offices with Preferred/Advanced edition to reduce possible loss in functionalities.
IP Offices that do not have Preferred Edition but have Office Worker, Teleworker or Power Users, will lose the
functionalities associated. If they upgrade to Release 8.0 and have one of these user profiles but no Preferred
Edition license they will receive a warning before the installation and relevant alarms after the installation.
The Avaya one-X™ Portal for IP Office server installation includes a note that the Power User, Teleworker,
Mobile Worker and Office Worker require a Preferred Edition License, and if such license is not present Avaya
one-X™ Portal for IP Office will not work.
The Avaya one-X™ Portal for IP Office server checks if there is a Preferred Edition license. If there is none
present it sends an appropriate alarm to the administrator explaining that Preferred Edition license was not
found.
The IP Office Video Softphone (part of Teleworker and Power User packages) checks if there is a Preferred
Edition license. If there is none it sends an appropriate alarm to the administrator explaining that Preferred
Edition license was not found.
