Version 6.6 139 October 2014
Installation & Operation Manual 21. Software Installation and Basic Configuration
Note: Installation of the OS patches on the SC Rev.1 board (using the Solaris OS)
may take a considerable amount of time – up to 1.5 hours. The exact amount of time
depends on which previous Mediant 8000 software version was installed on the
specific SC board.
Installation of OS patches on the SC Rev.2 board (using the Linux OS) is
considerably shorter and typically takes only a few minutes.
17. After the installation successfully completes, you will be prompted to reboot the
SC board.
SC board must be rebooted to complete the installation.
After the reboot, do the following:
1) connect to the Active SC board (via Global IP address)
2) run "tools ems" script to configure connectivity
between Media Gateway and EMS server
3) if VLAN must be configured on the OAM interface,
run "tools vlan" script
IMPORTANT: If you install the Media Gateway software on both SC boards,
do not reboot the SC board in slot 1 until the installation of the SC
board in slot 2 is completed.
REBOOT now (y/n) [y]: y
Are you sure (y/n) [y]: y
If you install the software on both SC boards, do not reboot the SC board to
operate as the Active board (that you are currently installing) until you complete
the installation of the other SC board (to operate as the Standby board). When
both SC boards are ready to be rebooted, reboot them simultaneously by typing y
and pressing Enter on the respective SC board’s CLI interfaces.
18. The SC board reboots. It typically takes 2 minutes to complete the reboot. The
Media Gateway software starts automatically after the SC board completes the
reboot process.
19. After the SC board completes the reboot, re-connect to its CLI interface and login
as the regular CLI user that you used to transfer the installation package (e.g.
acladmin).Type the rm tg_6.6.16_linux.install command to remove the Mediant
8000 installation package from the SC board. Replace tg_6.6.16_linux.install
with the actual Mediant 8000 software package name.
