21.1.4 Installing the Mediant 8000 Software on the SC Board to
Operate as the Active board
The following installation instructions are relevant only if you are installing the new
version of the Mediant 8000 software on both SC boards and should be performed on
the SC board residing in Slot 1.
If you install the Mediant 8000 software on the replacement SC board, while another
SC board continues to operate normally, use the procedures described in 'Installing
Mediant 8000 Software on the SC Board to Operate as the Standby board' on page
140.
To install the Mediant 8000 software on the SC board to operate as the
Active SC board:
1. Connect to the CLI interface on the SC board to operate as the Active board. For
more information, see Section 'Command Line Interface' on page 107.
2. Login as root user. For more information, see Section 'Logging in as a Root User'
on page 115.
3. At the prompt, type install ~acladmin/tg_6.6.16_linux.install and press Enter.
Replace acladmin with the name of the CLI user, that you used while transferring
the Mediant 8000 package to the SC board. Replace tg_6.6.16_linux.install with
the actual name of the Mediant 8000 installation package.
