Migrating translations
This section provides information for migrating translation files from the existing system to the new
S8700 or S8710 Media Server.
Before the day of migration
1 The customer freezes translation changes.
2 If the existing DEFINITY ECS R system does not have a Magneto Optical drive, the project
manager or software specialist sends the translations on a tape to Avaya’s Software Technical
Support (STS).
3 If an existing DEFINITY ECS SI system, The project manager sends the translations via flash
disk to the Avaya Software Technical Support group.
4 S8700 MC: STS mails a PCMCIA flashcard with the updated translation file to the project
manager, who sends them to the software specialist or field technician.
S8700 IP: STS updates the translations to the latest version and returns the translation reports and
translations file. The new translations are added to the S8700 or S8710 Media Server as part of the
media server installation process. The STS group uses the GES configuration report, available
from the project manager, that shows the slot locations for all the circuit packs.
There is no supported method of moving translations directly to the Avaya S8700 or S8710 Media
Server except for an S8100 with a Compact Modular Cabinet (CMC1) or G600 Media Gateway.
S8710: When migrating from S8500 or S8700 Media Servers:
• No need to freeze translations early as you back up all the system files including the current
translations the day of the migration.
