Avaya ships Messaging servers that are set up for a single-server topology. Skip this procedure if you have a single-server topology.
The AxC connects the storage and the application roles. In a single-server topology, these roles are on the same server, and you can use the default settings. However, if you have a topology with more than one server, you must change the default AxC IP address on each dedicated application server.
Use the AxC Address Web page to secure Web services communication between an application server and the associated storage server. However, if this is a single server, that is, the application and storage roles are defined on the same server, then you do not need to make the connection secure as all Web services communication is internal to the server.
Important If your deployment includes more than one server in the application role, only change the AxC IP address for the first server in the site. You can administer the servers for subsequent application roles by backing up the first application role and then restoring the data on to the server for the subsequent application role. See Initial administration checklist for application roles for information about which procedures are to be done manually on the server and which are done automatically through the backup and restore process.
Administer the storage role. See Initial administration checklist for the storage role.
If you are administering the first or the only application role, you must first complete the procedure for Configuring languages.
On the AxC server, the server has been added in the Messaging system topology as an application server. For more information, see Adding the first application server.
By default, the Messaging system populates this field with the IP address of the local host. Ensure that the AxC address is the IP address of the operational AxC server.
The system displays a confirmation message.
If you want to validate your Messaging configuration, see Messaging configuration checklist.
If there is only one application server on your site, you are ready to define your site and topology. For more information, see Initial administration checklist for sites and topology.
