27 Upgrade and Recovery - Introduction
This chapter provides step-by-step instructions on how to upgrade the Survivable Branch
Appliance (SBA) software application and how to recover it (in case of failure).
The SBA is hosted on the Mediant 1000B OSN server platform, which is deployed at the
remote branch office in the Microsoft Lync Server 2013 environment. Upon a WAN outage,
the Mediant 1000B SBA maintains call continuity among Microsoft Lync clients and devices
within the branch office, and provides PSTN termination (if implemented) for these clients.
The SBA Upgrade and Recovery procedure is done using AudioCodes SBA Upgrade and
Recovery USB dongle which contains a later version of the SBA image file. The USB
dongle also provides a text-based file (RecoveryUtil.ini) that allows you to customize the
upgrade and recovery process.
The SBA Upgrade and Recovery procedural steps can be summarized as follows:
