Common prerequisites to all migrations
Issue 2.1 June 2006 309
Premigration setup
When you migrate from a DEFINITY system, complete the following additional tasks before you
start the migration:
9 Task Description
About 2 weeks before the
migration, freeze the
translations.
Collect the translations
locally by a spare flash card.
If the existing system does
not have a magneto optical
drive or if the MOST tool is
not used, send the
translation media to the
STS. For more information,
see From a magneto optical
disk on page 303.
For more information on where and how send the
translations, contact the STS scheduling desk at
720-444-9418.
STS then updates the translations to the latest
version. This process can take 2 weeks. STS returns
the translation reports and translation files to the
project manager by e-mail who sends them to the
technical support representative.
Verify that a copy of the existing translations exists so
that you can reenter the translations later.
About 2 business days
before, contact the STARS
team by creating a trouble
ticket.
Whenever an S8x00 media server is upgraded from
1.x.x to 2.x.x and a new Communication Manager
license and Avaya authentication file is requested,
ASG access (remote and on-site) is impacted. The
Service Tools and Application Remote Support
(STARS) team provides assistance to ensure
successful ASG access before and after the upgrade.
To contact the STARS team, use http://
stars.avaya.com/ticket/requests/request.asp.
Mark the ticket status as
CRITICAL.
Indicate text in the ticket to notify the STARS team that
you are upgrading an S8x00 media server. Include the
date of the upgrade and the FL and product or alarm
ID of the system.
The STARS team contacts you on how to access your
product before and after the upgrade. A temporary
ASG product ID is created for you and your team to
use for access during the time of the upgrade.
