Migrating a DEFINITY ONE/S8100 to an S8700-Series Media Server with IP-PNC
810 Upgrading, Migrating, and Converting Media Servers and Gateways
Migration tasks
The information in this is based on the assumption that the media server complex is installed,
configured, and operational.
This section describes how to change an existing processor port network (PPN) to a port
network (PN).
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION: This migration affects service. When the PPN is turned off, the system drops all
calls. Service returns when the media server takes control of the IPSIs.
The following list describes the general migration procedures:
● Turn off the processor gracefully - pre-conversion administration
● Replace the processor circuit pack or tone clock circuit pack with an IP Server Interface
(IPSI) circuit pack
● Connect the IPSI circuit pack to the Ethernet switch on the customer network
● Assign an IP address to the IPSI circuit pack
You can reuse the translations from the existing system when you migrate to an S8500 Media
Server.
Note:
Note: You must install the new Communication Manager license file on the media
server before you make the change or the system will not run.
Perform the following tasks to convert a processor port network to a port network (CMC).
Premigration administration:
● Connecting to the processor on page 812
● Recording node names and IP addresses on page 812
● Saving translations on page 813
● Recording IP settings on page 813
Migration tasks:
● Accessing the media server maintenance web interface on page 814
● Checking system status on page 814
● Verifying the license file on page 814
● Restoring data for a migration (S8710 only) on page 815
● Adding IPSI translations to Communication Manager on page 817
● Adding IPSI information on page 817
