Migrating to an Avaya S8500 Media Server
444 Upgrading, Migrating, and Converting Media Servers and Gateways
Migration paths for S8500 Media Servers
When you migrate to an S8500, you can use the existing translations. The only supported
method to move translations from legacy systems is to:
1. Freeze the translations.
2. Send the translations to the Avaya Software Technical Support (STS) group.
STS then returns the translation reports and translation files by e-mail to the project manager
before the migration. For forms and more information, contact the STS scheduling desk at
720-444-9418.
These migration paths require that the media server is running Communication Manager
Release 1.2.x, 1.3.x, 2.0.x, or 2.1.x software before the migration. Upgrades from a release that
is earlier than Release 1.3.1 require that you install the preupgrade service pack before the
upgrade to Communication Manager Release 3.1.
An S8500 Media Server that is running Communication Manager Release 1.3.x or 2.x software
can support a configuration that has one or more local survivable processors (LSPs) that are
running Communication Manager Release 3.1 software.
An S8500 Media Server running Communication Manager Release 3.1 software can support a
configuration that has one or more Enterprise Survivable Servers (ESSs) running
Communication Manager Release 3.x software.
An S8500 Media Server that is running Communication Manager Release 3.1 software can
support a configuration that consists of LSPs and ESSs. The LSPs and ESSs must be running
Communication Manager Release 3.1 or later software. For more information, see the
Upgrades chapter.

This information in this section is based on the assumption that the media server complex is
installed, configured, and operational.
