Deployment scenarios

This chapter contains instructions to prepare each application role in your network topology for a specific site. Depending on the number of application roles in your network topology, you must complete some of the instructions more than once. Use the following scenarios and the checklist to help you plan your administration activities.

One server and one site

Each of the following deployment scenarios refers to the tasks in Initial administration checklist for application roles. For more information about your deployment options, see the Avaya Aura® Messaging Overview and Planning guide.

In this scenario, associate one application role with a site by completing the first five tasks in the initial administration checklist. You can skip the remaining tasks.

Multiple servers and one site

In this scenario, you must associate more than one application role with one site. For example, your topology could be a site in Atlanta that has three dedicated application servers.

For this example, you would complete:
  • Tasks 1 through 5 on the first application server

  • Tasks 1 and 6 on the second and third application servers

Multiple servers and multiple sites

In this scenario, you have at least two sites and you must associate one or more application roles to each site.

For example, if your topology is:
  • A site in Atlanta with three dedicated application servers

  • A site in Boston with one dedicated application server

In the first site, Atlanta, you would complete:
  • Tasks 1 through 5 on the first application server

  • Tasks 1 and 6 on the second and third application servers

In the second site, Boston, you would complete tasks 1 through 5.

ImportantImportant

Do not restore system files that you backed up for one site on to application servers associated with a different site.
