298 Upgrading, Migrating, and Converting Media Servers and Gateways
S8400 Media Server
Use these procedures to migrate from existing DEFINITY systems to the Avaya S8400 Media
Server with limited out-of-service time. The existing systems must be standard reliability. In all
instances, the cabinets can be reused a port network (PN). You do not need a G650 Media
Gateway.
You can migrate the following existing systems:
● DEFINITY Server CSI in a Compact Modular Cabinet (CMC)
● DEFINITY ONE in a CMC
● Avaya IP600/S8100 in a G600
Migrating hardware
The information in this section is based on the assumption that the media server complex is
installed, configured, and operational.
DEFINITY Server CSI or DEFINITY ONE/S8100 in a CMC
When migrating an existing DEFINITY Server CSI or DEFINITY ONE in a CMC, you use the
TN8400AP S8400 Media Server circuit pack to control the PN. You replace the processor circuit
pack with the TN8400AP Media Server and TN8412AP S8400 IP Interface (SIPI) circuit packs
in the cabinet in the A position. Install the TN8400AP Media Server circuit pack in slot 1 and the
TN8412AP SIPI circuit pack in slot 2.
This migration affects service because you must turn off the CSI or DEFINITY ONE chassis to
replace the processor. Before you turn off the chassis, you must perform some premigration
administration.
