Disabling scheduled maintenance with the SAT (main server only)
To prevent scheduled daily maintenance from interfering with the upgrade:
1. Type change system-parameters maintenance and press Enter.
2. Perform one of the following actions:
● If scheduled maintenance is in progress, set the Stop Time field to 1 minute after the
current time.
● If scheduled maintenance is not in progress, set the Start Time field to a time after the
upgrade is completed.
For example, if you start the upgrade at 8:00 p.m. and the upgrade takes 4 hours, set the
Start Time field to 23:59.
Checking for translation corruption
To check for translation corruption:
1. Type newterm. Press Enter.
2. If you see the following message:
Warning: Translation corruption detected . . .
then follow the normal escalation procedure for translation corruption before continuing the
upgrade.
Saving a copy of the 4600-series telephone configuration file, if
any (main server only)
During an upgrade, any data in the /tftpboot directory is overwritten with new software and
firmware. If the system uses the http or tftp server capability, the 4600-series IP Telephone
firmware and configuration file in the /tftpboot directory are overwritten.
You must redownload the 46xx firmware file after the upgrade. However, you can save a copy of
the 46xx configuration file before the upgrade and copy the file back into the /tftpboot directory
after the upgrade.
