Replacing/adding/upgrading media modules using a USB mass-storage
device
Procedure
1. Backup the Branch Gateway by entering backup config usb usbdevice0
backup-name, where backup-name is the backup directory path and file name
you are creating on the USB mass-storage device.
A backup directory is created on the USB mass-storage device, with a directory
structure as detailed in
Sample backup directory after backup on page 92.
2. From the Avaya support Website, download to your PC the firmware files of the
media modules you are adding or upgrading.
For each media module, download all firmware corresponding to the various
hardware vintage/suffix versions available for that module. If you are not sure which
files you need, you can download the firmware files of all media modules. The
restore operation uses only the files needed.
3. Insert the USB mass-storage device into the PC’s USB port, and copy the media
modules’ firmware files to the MM subdirectory under the root backup directory.
Important:
When adding files to a backup directory on a USB mass-storage device, it is
important to follow the file and directory naming convention, in order to enable a
successful restore.
4. Insert the USB mass-storage device into an Branch Gateway USB port.
5. Enter restore usb usbdevice0 backup-name, where backup-name is the
backup directory path and file name on the USB mass-storage device.
6. If you changed the placement of media modules in the slots, update the MGC
managing the Branch Gateway.
