Install License Files and Media Server Software

If you are installing an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX Messaging Application with a new media server under the same work order, you should be using the checklist for an Installation (with a new media server).

This section includes steps for the following processes:

Get the Planning Forms from the Project Manager

You will need a lot of information prior to beginning an installation. The project manager for the installation gives you planning forms that provide this information. It primarily consists of IP addresses, subnet mask addresses, logins, passwords, people to contact, the type of system, and equipment you need to install.

If Necessary, Get the Serial Number of the Media Gateway That Hosts the INTUITY AUDIX System

You need this number to upload a new license and authentication file for the media server and/or INTUITY AUDIX system. The serial number of the media gateway is written on a sticker that is attached to the back of the media gateway chassis.

Note: This task is necessary only if the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system is an aftermarket addition to the media server. In this case, the new license file will contain INTUITY AUDIX permissions.

When you are installing a media server with an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system under the same work order, the license and authentication files you install for the media server should already contain INTUITY AUDIX permissions.

 

Note: If possible, ask the customer or your project manager to check for the serial number prior to going to the customer site for the installation.


Complete the RFA Processes and Download Communication Manager and/or IA770 INTUITY AUDIX Remote Field Update (RFU) Software to Your Laptop

Note: This task is necessary only if the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system is an aftermarket addition to the media server. In this case, the new license file will contain INTUITY AUDIX permissions.

When you are installing a media server with an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system under the same work order, the license and authentication files you install for the media server should already contain INTUITY AUDIX permissions.

 

See �Complete the RFA Processes and Download Communication Manager Update Software to Your Laptop� in Chapter 5 of Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya� G700 Media Gateway controlled by an Avaya� S8300 Media Server or an Avaya� S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100. The RFA process retrieves a new license for the media server that contains permissions for INTUITY AUDIX software.

Also, check your planning forms for the most recent IA770 INTUITY AUDIX remote field updates (RFUs). Remote field update packages have the format A<number>rf+<letter>.rpm or C<number>rf+<letter>.rpm (for example, C6037rf+a.rpm). You should download any INTUITY AUDIX RFUs to your laptop the same way you download Communication Manager software. The INTUITY AUDIX RFUs are available from the Software Download section of the http://www.avaya.com/support website on the Internet.

Note: It may not be necessary to update the Communication Manager software. Check with your project manager or check the version of existing software on the media server.


If Necessary, Configure Your Laptop to Connect with the Media Server Services Port

See �Set up a Laptop for an S8300 Media Server Direct Ethernet Connection, If Local� in Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya� G700 Media Gateway controlled by an Avaya� S8300 Media Server or an Avaya� S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100.

Log in to the Media Server Using Telnet

  1. Connect your laptop to the services port of the media server. Your laptop must already be configured for this connection.
  2. Access the telnet program as follows:
  • If you are not yet logged in, open a telnet program on your computer. For example, on a Windows system, go to the Start menu and select Run.
  • Type telnet 192.11.13.6 to access the media server command prompt.

Note: You must enter the exact IP address 192.11.13.6. This is a special IP address for the laptop/media server connection.

  • When the login prompt appears, log in as craft.

Note: You must enter the exact IP address 192.11.13.6. This is a special IP address for the laptop/media server connection.

  • When prompted, enter the appropriate password.
  • You are prompted to suppress alarm origination. Generally you should accept the default value (yes).
  • Enter your terminal type. Accept the default value vt100, or enter the appropriate type for your computer. If your laptop uses Windows 2000, use terminal type w2ktt and the w2ktt terminal emulation escape keys.
  • The telnet prompt appears. It may take the form <username@devicename>.

Log in to the Media Server Browser Interface

  1. Connect your laptop to the services port of the media server. Your laptop must already be configured for this connection.
  2. Open a browser (for example, Internet Explorer or Netscape), and enter the URL http://192.11.13.6 to log on as craft.

    The system displays the Maintenance Web Pages main menu.

Prepare the Media Server for the Upgrade

Note: This task is necessary only if the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system is an aftermarket addition to the media server. When you are installing a media server with an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system under the same work order, the media server software files (.tar files) you installed for the media server should contain INTUITY AUDIX software.

See �Prepare for the Upgrade (S8300 as Primary Controller Only)� in Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya� G700 Media Gateway controlled by an Avaya� S8300 Media Server or an Avaya� S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100.

Upload and Install the License and Authentication Files

Note: This task is necessary only if the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system is an aftermarket addition to the media server. When you are installing a media server with an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system under the same work order, the license and authentication files you installed for the media server should contain INTUITY AUDIX permissions.


Note: If previous license and authentication files have been installed, you must remove them from the media server FTP directory.

See �Install the New License File, If Necessary� in Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya� G700 Media Gateway controlled by an Avaya� S8300 Media Server or an Avaya� S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100.

Check the License Mode

  1. On the Maintenance Web Pages main menu, click License Files.

The system displays the View License Status screen.

  1. Check that the CommunicaMgr License Mode field says Normal.

If Necessary, Load and Install the Most Recent Media Server and Communication Manager Software and Complete the Media Server/Media Gateway Installation

Note: This task is necessary only if the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system is an aftermarket addition to the media server or you must perform a system recovery. When you are installing a media server with an IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX system under the same work order, the media server software files (.tar files) you installed for the media server should contain INTUITY AUDIX software.

See �Load New Software on the S8300� and �Install New Software on the S8300� in Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya� G700 Media Gateway controlled by an Avaya� S8300 Media Server or an Avaya� S8700 Media Server, 555-234-100.

The most recent media server software (the most recent .tar file) includes the most recent IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX software. However, once the .tar file is loaded onto the media server, you use the media server Install screens to install the media server software, but you use the INTUITY AUDIX autoinstall command to install IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX.

You may also need to load and install the most recent Communication Manager software. This software is required in order to allow the media server to support the IA 770 Intuity AUDIX system.

Note: Be sure to check to see if media server update software is necessary with the View Software Version screen.


At the Reboot in Progress screen at the end of the software installation process, the system does not tell you when the reboot is complete. Do not click Continue until you are sure the reboot is complete. Otherwise, the installation will fail.

To know when the reboot is complete, open a DOS window and ping the media server with the command ping -t 192.11.13.6.


Be sure to make the upgrade permanent. This task ensures that the media server continues to use the new software.

If yoiu fial to perform this task, the media server may revert to old software when it reboots, and media server will lose its translations.

1. From the Maintenance Web Pages main menu, click Make Upgrade Permanent. Under Server Upgrades

2. Click Submit to make the upgrade permanent.


If Necessary, Upload RFUs and Additional Announcement Sets

Note: This task is necessary only if the customer requests additional languages or IA770 INTUITY AUDIX remote field updates are required.

The language packages, also called announcement sets, allow system users to hear voice prompts and system announcements in other languages. The system is shipped from the factory with the following language packages installed:

    • US English
    • English TDD (for teletype (TTY) machines)
    • French Canadian
    • Latin Spanish

Adding language software causes the voice system to stop. Plan to do the installation during low usage hours.

Use the IA 770 INTUITY AUDIX Languages CD to upload additional announcement sets:

  1. If necessary, connect your laptop to the services port of the media server. Your laptop must already be configured for this connection.
  2. Open a browser (for example, Internet Explorer or Netscape), and enter the URL http://192.11.13.6 to log on as craft.

    The system displays the Maintenance Web Pages main menu.
  3. On the Maintenance Web Pages main menu, click Download Files under Miscellaneous.

    The system displays the Download Files window.

  4. Click the Browse button for the first field.

    The media server displays the Choose File window, which allows you to select files from your laptop.

  5. Click directory names until you find the appropriate announcement file.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the additional fields if additional languages are required.
  7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for additional fields if an IA770 INTUITY AUDIX RFU is required. Remote field update packages have the format A<number>rf+<letter>.rpm or C<number>rf+<letter>.rpm (for example, C6037rf+a.rpm).
  8. Click Download.

    When the files are successfully transferred, the system displays the status screen.

  9. Check that the Status box displays OK
