Planning for a DEFINITY AUDIX Migration

This section details the planning required to migrate from a DEFINITY AUDIX to an Avaya Intuity system. It includes the following information:

When you are migrating a DEFINITY AUDIX system to an Avaya Intuity system, these releases are supported:

DEFINITY AUDIX Migration Description

This section describes the migration processes and what types of data are migrated from the DEFINITY AUDIX system to the Avaya Intuity system. Although the migration process is similar, different sets of data are migrated depending on the configuration of your DEFINITY AUDIX system. The data that is transferred is listed in these two sections:

Migrating from CL Mode

The DEFINITY AUDIX system in control link (CL) mode is replaced by the Avaya Intuity system. However, you have the option of leaving the DEFINITY AUDIX system attached to the switch as a second voice messaging system. The replacement of the DEFINITY AUDIX system includes:

Automatically Migrated Data

The data that is migrated from the DEFINITY AUDIX system in CL mode to the Avaya Intuity system includes:

Data Not Migrated

The Avaya Intuity system does not transfer the following data from the DEFINITY AUDIX system in CL mode:

Migrating from DS or DP Mode

The DEFINITY AUDIX system in display set (DS) or digital port (DP) mode is replaced by the Avaya Intuity system. There is no option to use the DEFINITY AUDIX system as a second voice messaging system.


 

Note: Since more integrations use DS mode, "DS" is used in this section to refer to both modes.

The migration process includes:

Automatically Migrated Data

The data that is migrated from the DEFINITY AUDIX system in DS mode to the Avaya Intuity system includes:

Data Not Migrated

The Avaya Intuity system does not transfer the following data from the DEFINITY AUDIX system in DS mode:

DEFINITY AUDIX Migration Preparation

This section identifies recommended preparations for a migration from the DEFINITY AUDIX system to the Avaya Intuity system. These preparations are required regardless of whether you are migrating from CL or DS mode. These preparations are scheduled for the following intervals relative to when the migration takes place:

One Week in Advance

One week before the migration:

  1. Send a broadcast message to your subscribers about the upcoming change in their voice messaging system.
     

    Note: Make the system administrator a single point of contact for subscriber's questions about their new Avaya Intuity system.

  2. Send a memo or broadcast message to tell subscribers the dial prefix or prefixes for fax print destinations and the number of additional digits after the prefix.
     

    Note: Subscribers cannot print or send faxes without knowing the fax prefix and precise number of digits for fax printing. See Administering the Avaya Intuity Platform for Fax Messaging for more information.

  3. Your memo or broadcast message should also tell subscribers to transfer calls into their AUDIX mailbox when they answer a fax-only call and hear fax tone. On DEFINITY switches, they can do this with the Transfer into AUDIX feature.

  4. Send a message to Avaya Intuity Message Manager subscribers to enter the AUDIX Server ID and mailbox extension from their login screen when they install the fax feature with Avaya Intuity Message Manager.
One Day in Advance

One day before the migration:

  1. Send a broadcast message telling subscribers of the impending changes. Ask them to check their mailbox for new messages, since the message waiting indicator may not be lit.
     

    Note: You may want to include in your broadcast message information regarding any user interface changes the migration causes. Features that may be new or may be eliminated include call screening, "O calls to follow coverage," relogin with * R or *7, and multi-language capability.

  2. The handout "The New Intuity AUDIX System: It's Different" for DEFINITY AUDIX describes the new features that subscribers will have. Customize this handout and distribute it to your subscribers. You can start with a Microsoft Word version or a text-only version.

  3. Connect a printer to your display terminal using the parallel port for a parallel printer and the serial port for a serial printer. If you have a 610, 4410, or 5410 terminal, the printer speed must match the terminal speed.
  4. You may connect any of the following printers:

  5. Determine the keys on your terminal that are required to print the screens:

  6.  
    • For a 4410, 4425, or 610 terminal:
    1. Press CONTROL+F4 to display the screen-labeled print keys.
    2. The system displays the screen-labeled print keys.

    3. Press F3 (Print Screen) to print the screen.
    4. The system prints data appearing on the screen.

    5. Display any additional pages of the screen and repeat Step 2.
    6. Press CONTROL+F6 to return the screen-labeled keys to their original state.
    • For a 715 terminal:
    1. Press the PRINT SCREEN key.
    2. The system prints data appearing on the screen.

    3. Display any additional pages of the screen and repeat Step 1.
    • For a 513 terminal:
    1. Press F10 to display the first layer of screen-labeled keys for the terminal.
    2. Press LOCAL PRINT (F1) to display the screen-labeled print keys.
    3. Press PRINT SCREEN (F7).
    4. Display any additional pages of the screen and repeat Step 3.
    5. Press F10, and then F5 to return the screen-labeled keys to their original state.

  7. Print out the following screens, if desired:
  8. Administer remote networked machines.
  9. AUDIX machines networked via AMIS to the DEFINITY AUDIX system that was just replaced may need administered. You may need to:

After the Migration

Once the migration, switch administration, and acceptance testing of the system has been completed, you must complete administration of the Avaya Intuity system. To use the same or a similar configuration as that of the DEFINITY AUDIX, review or re-enter the data you gathered in preparation for the migration to the Avaya Intuity system. Complete the following tasks whether you migrated from the DEFINITY AUDIX system in CL mode or in DS mode to the Avaya Intuity system.

To complete the migration from DEFINITY AUDIX:

  1. Compare subscribers on the Avaya Intuity system to subscribers on the DEFINITY AUDIX system:
      1. Log in to DEFINITY AUDIX and enter list: subscriber at the command line.
      2. Log in to the Avaya Intuity system with the sa (system administrator) login.
      3. Select AUDIX Administration from the Avaya Intuity Administration menu.
      4. Enter list subscribers at the command line.
      5. If the DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity machines are in the same room and close enough together, you can compare the lists of subscribers directly from the terminal screens. If the machines are not close together, print out the screens.

      6. Note any incomplete or missing records on the Avaya Intuity system.
  2. Add subscribers who did not migrate.
  3. Add to the Avaya Intuity system any subscribers whose records were either missing or incomplete in the Avaya Intuity system subscriber list. See Adding, Changing or Removing Subscribers for more information.

  4. Reenter networking address ranges.
  5. If your DEFINITY AUDIX system did not have networking, but your Avaya Intuity system has either AMIS or digital networking, you must reenter the networking address ranges entered by installation technicians. This is necessary because the data transfer erases any address ranges that exist on the Avaya Intuity system.

  6. Administer new features.
  7. For more information about Intuity AUDIX feature administration, see Initial Administration and Test for Features.

Comparison of the DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity Systems

The following sections describe the differences between the DEFINITY AUDIX system and the Avaya Intuity system:

Avaya Intuity Fax, Internet Messaging, Intuity Message Manager, and Enhanced List Application can have a significant impact on the number of voice ports, number of hours of voice storage, and the number of subscribers the Avaya Intuity system can accommodate.
2
The number of local and remote subscribers that the Avaya Intuity system can accommodate depends on the length of messages, number of messages sent per hour, number of messages stored in a mailbox, and the average of networked messages sent locally.

Switch Connections

Unlike the DEFINITY AUDIX system, the Avaya Intuity system is not inserted within the switch cabinet. The Avaya Intuity system runs on a separate computer that is connected to your switch through cables. You can connect your Avaya Intuity machine to all of the same switches to which you can connect the DEFINITY AUDIX system. However, the Avaya Intuity system also connects to many other switches.

A DEFINITY AUDIX system running in Display Set (DEFINITY AUDIX 3.1) or Digital Port Emulation mode (DEFINITY AUDIX 3.0 or earlier) does not require data communications hardware on the switch. Therefore, you must have data communication hardware installed on your switch when you replace the DEFINITY AUDIX system with the Avaya Intuity system.

Comparison of DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity Subscriber Features

The Avaya Intuity system offers additional subscriber features or features that are different from those you had with your DEFINITY AUDIX system. This section contains a set of tables that describe the similarities or differences between the DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity subscriber features. It includes the following list and tables:

DEFINITY AUDIX to Avaya Intuity Subscriber Feature Summary

These features in Intuity AUDIX Release 5 provide capabilities in addition to that of the DEFINITY AUDIX.


 

Note: Some of these features are available on DEFINITY AUDIX 4.0.

Description of New Subscriber Features Compared to DEFINITY AUDIX

The Avaya Intuity system offers new subscriber features compared to those on the DEFINITY AUDIX system.
 
Table: New Subscriber Features Compared to DEFINITY AUDIX
Feature
Description
Fax Messaging
Fax messaging is fully integrated with AUDIX voice messaging. Subscribers can receive, send, and store faxes, and attach them to voice messages. They can also scan, delete, skip, forward (including forward to a mailing list), and respond to faxes. They can also designate fax messages as priority or private. As with voice messages, the category by which a fax is designated changes to reflect its status, that is, from new to unopened to old.
With Fax Extended Dialing, subscribers can address faxes to phone numbers of more than 10 characters in length.
Addressing messages before recording them
A subscriber has the option of addressing a message before recording it. After the message is recorded and approved, the subscriber has the option to review the addresses already entered and add more.
You must first turn on this capability for the subscribers. Then subscribers must set the option for their particular mailbox by pressing 5 6 and then 9 (for yes).
If the message contains only a fax, the subscriber must address the fax before sending it from the fax machine.
Turn off AUDIX Call Answering
When a subscriber is on the telephone or away from the office for an extended period of time, the subscriber can turn off the call answering feature of the AUDIX system. Thus, when the subscriber does not answer the telephone, AUDIX answers if the system greeting is active and tells the caller that the subscriber's mailbox is not accepting messages. If the subscriber turns off call answering and uses a personal greeting, the subscriber should mention in the greeting that messages are not being accepted.
The subscriber presses 5 7 1 to turn off the call answering feature.
This feature helps prevent a subscriber's mailbox from filling up with messages and saves disk space on the system. However, turning off the call answer feature does not turn off the AUDIX voice mail feature. Thus, a subscriber's mailbox continues to accept voice mail messages that other subscribers send.
Greater touchtone input time to allow for rotary telephone conversion
The Intuity AUDIX system lets the administrator extend the length of time (up to 12 seconds) the system will wait for touchtone inputs from a caller. This additional time permits more effective use of a pulse-to-touchtone converter on AUDIX systems accepting calls from rotary telephone users.
More message component types
An Intuity AUDIX system allows subscribers to send or receive messages containing voice, fax, text, and attached binary (software) files.
Send messages to and receive messages from Internet email users
Intuity AUDIX subscribers can send messages, including voice, fax, text, or attached files, to or receive such messages from Internet email users. Messages can be sent from or received in the voice mailbox, Message Manager, or an Internet email-compatible software program. A special addressing method is required, which is determined by the Intuity AUDIX system administrator. Internet email users without access to an Intuity AUDIX system can play or record messages with a software program that is distributed without charge.
Listen to email or text messages
If your system has the text-to-speech option, subscribers can listen to email messages that were sent from an Internet email address or from Message Manager as a text message.
Print email or text messages
Subscribers can print messages that were sent from an Internet email address or from Message Manager as a text message. Subscribers print email in the same way they print faxes.
Address Messages to Enhanced Lists (up to 1500 members per list)
Subscribers can address and send a message to a large mailing list that can contain up to 1500 subscribers. Subscribers previously could send messages to a single list of up to 250 subscribers.
The system administrator creates each enhanced list and assigns an extension to it. Subscribers can then address a message to the list by simply entering the list's extension as they would any other subscriber's extension.
Restrictions on password conventions
The system prevents a subscriber from using the following types of passwords:
    • The same number as the subscriber's extension (for example, extension 34555 and password 34555)
    • Repeated digits (for example, 77777)
    • Consecutive digits (for example, 12345)
Restrictions on transfers
The system administrator can administer the system so subscribers cannot transfer from the Intuity AUDIX system to certain specific extensions or ranges of extensions.
Avaya Voice Director
Uses speech recognition for Spoken Name Addressing and Name Dialing.
  • Spoken Name Addressing is used to address a message, transfer a call, or create a mailing list. Uses spoken input instead of telephone touchtones.
  • Name Dialing answers the telephone, asks the caller to speak a name, speaks the name back to the caller after finding it in the database, then transfers the call to the subscriber's extension.
ARIA
The ARIA interface can be chosen as the user interface for the Intuity AUDIX.
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
LDAP allows external Internet clients and servers to query subscriber records and locate mailboxes on the Intuity AUDIX server. Acess is restricted through the use of passwords.
Announce Name on Transfer
Previous Intuity AUDIX versions announced a transfer by telling the caller to "Please wait." The caller now hears the spoken subscriber name or extension number before the transfer. Callers can then verify whether the transfer is correct.
Remove Forced Annotation
Forwarded messages no longer require an appended or prepended annotation to the original message. Someone hearing a message that has been forwarded several times must then only listen to the original message.

DEFINITY AUDIX Subscriber Feature that is No Longer Available

The following table describes a feature that is not available on the Intuity AUDIX system.

Call Screening
The Intuity AUDIX system does not allow subscribers to screen calls. The DEFINITY AUDIX system in DP mode allows call screening.

Comparison of DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity Administration Features

The Avaya Intuity system offers additional administration features or features that are different from those of the DEFINITY AUDIX system. This section lists these changes in several different ways:

Definity AUDIX to Avaya Intuity Administrative Feature Summary

These features in Intuity AUDIX Release 5 provide additional capabilities.


 

Note: Some of these features are available on DEFINITY AUDIX 4.0.

New Administrative Features from DEFINITY AUDIX
The following table describes differences in administrative features between the DEFINITY AUDIX and Avaya Intuity systems.
 
Table: New Administrative Features with Avaya Intuity Release 5
Feature
Change Description
Customizing screen-labeled keys
You can choose between two screen-labeled key display orders:
    • The order used for the system access terminal (SAT) or Manager I
    • An order unique to the Intuity AUDIX system
Using the SAT order can be helpful for Intuity AUDIX system administrators who also administer the switch.
Multiple login levels
The Intuity AUDIX system offers two levels of logins:
    • System administrator (sa) which allows access to all customer-administrable parts of the Avaya Intuity system
    • Voice messaging administrator (vm) which allows access only to the Intuity AUDIX screens
Multiple simultaneous logins
The Intuity AUDIX system permits up to four administrators to be logged in to the system at the same time. The DEFINITY AUDIX system permits only two simultaneous logins.

Note: The capability for two simultaneous administration logins is available by default. For three or four logins, you must add a multi-port serial card to the Intuity AUDIX system.

Address before record
You can allow subscribers to address messages before recording them. The administrator turns this capability on or off for the whole system. With this capability on, subscribers can individually set their mailboxes so they can address messages before recording them.
Call answer disable
You can allow subscribers, via class of service, to turn off their mailboxes from accepting call answer messages. Thus, when a subscriber does not want callers to leave call answer messages, the subscriber can turn off his or her mailbox.
Outgoing print job queue
You can monitor fax print jobs via the Outgoing Print Job Queue screen. This screen is available in the Avaya Intuity screens under the Voice System Administration main menu option.
Subscriber Password Aging
The system administrator can set a length of time after which a subscriber's password expires. The subscriber must then change the password.
Administrator Password Aging
The system administrator can and should set up an interval for administrator password expirations. This password aging ensures that all administrators change passwords on the system periodically. Password aging applies to both sa and vm passwords.
Compliance with Password Guidelines
The system prevents the following types of passwords:
    • The same number as the administrator's extension (for example, extension 34555 and password 34555)
    • Repeated digits (for example, 77777)
    • Consecutive digits (for example, 12345)
TCP/IP LAN Access
Several optional applications, including Enhanced List Administration, Internet Messaging, and Message Manager require LAN access to the Intuity AUDIX system. The system administrator must administer LAN access via Intuity TCP/IP networking windows.
Restrictions on Call Transfers Allowed
The system administrator can define specific extensions or ranges of extensions to which subscribers may transfer from an AUDIX mailbox by using the Add Allowed Transfer Numbers and Add Denied Transfer Numbers windows.
Voice Equipment Administration
The windows used to administer channels have changed. The new windows affect the way extensions, groups, and services are assigned to channels, and the way channels are renumbered and busied out.
Change extensions
You can change subscriber extensions in blocks of extensions. For example, you can tell Intuity AUDIX to change extensions 87000 through 87999 to 6000 to 6999. In this case, a subscriber with the extension 87234 would have new extension 6234. This feature is especially useful when you must change subscriber extension length or dial plans.
Fax Capability1
The system administrator can assign, via class of service, the ability of subscribers to send, receive, and store faxes in their mailboxes. At least one call delivery machine (fax machine) must be created that consists of one or a range of possible fax machine extensions. Intuity AUDIX uses the dummy call delivery machine for printing to fax machines.
Guaranteed fax capability may also be supported by assigning an AUDIX mailbox to each local fax machine. Customers can also set up secondary fax extensions for some subscribers so that call answer faxes go directly to their mailboxes instead of ringing their telephones. See Overview of FAX Messaging for more information.
Fax Extended Dialing1
Allows subscribers to send and print faxes to telephone numbers of more than 10 digits. Also enables the use of shortcut keys (**5) for all fax printing or sending. You can control the fax numbers called by allowing or denying dial strings.
TCP/IP Networking1
TCP/IP networking allows the use of a TCP/IP LAN for sending messages between Intuity AUDIX systems. The system administrator must administer the local machine and any networked machines and remote subscribers using TCP/IP networking windows and AUDIX administration.
Internet Messaging1
Administration of this feature uses a simple web interface and can be done from any network or Internet connection, after passing secured access points. The feature software is already installed in a new system, but must be activated and properly administered for use.
Text-to-Speech2
Text-to-speech conversion allows subscribers to listen to a voiced rendering of an email message. If this capability is purchased, the system administrator can define, via the System Parameters Features screen, whether the system should convert text and email messages or message headers to speech.
Enhanced List Administration (ELA)2
The system administrator can define lists of up to 1500 recipients by selecting the Edit Lists and Member List options under the Enhanced-List Administration choice on the Avaya Intuity main menu. The system administrator can create up to 100 ELA lists, for a total distribution capability of nearly 150,000 message recipients.
Access Security Gateway
Access Security Gateway (ASG) is a challenge-and-response technology that secures access into the system through the remote dial-in port.
Other security enhancements include:
  • Automatic termination of log-in sessions after a predefined period of inactivity
  • Suppression of the system name and display of a ten-character system identification code at the log-in prompt
  • Provision of a standard security notification when the subscriber logs in to the system
System availability
One of the objectives of Intuity AUDIX Release 5 is to improve the availability of the system. Before Intuity AUDIX Release 5, activating certain features or functions required a system restart or reboot. With Intuity AUDIX Release 5, a system restart or reboot is no longer necessary. For example, AMIS Analog Networking is now a standard feature that is activated on every Release 5 system. In addition, enabling voice ports on existing circuit cards, fax activation, digital networking, and TCP/IP administration does not require system restart
Fault tolerance
Fault tolerance is the ability of a system to respond gracefully to an unexpected hardware or software failure. To accommodate a fault-tolerant environment, Release 5 incorporates RAID, Redundant Array of Independent Disks. Two levels of RAID are available:
  • Level 5. RAID Level 5 is a standard feature on all MAP/100P systems. RAID Level 5 offers a high degree of availability and reliability by minimizing the impact of disk failures. If a drive fails, the data on that disk is reconstructed from the data on the remaining drives. This reconstruction occurs while the system is running as if the drive had never failed.
  • At least three, and, more typically five drives are required for RAID Level 5.

  • Level 1. RAID Level 1 provides redundancy by writing all data to two or more drives, although only two drives are required. This level is commonly referred to as mirroring.
  • RAID Level 1 is offered for MAP/40P platforms. With RAID Level 1 drives are paired and mirrored. All data is 100% duplicated on an equivalent drive.

Improved performance
A CD-ROM drive replaces the tape drive on all Intuity AUDIX Release 5 platforms. This drive offers faster installation of software packages. With Intuity AUDIX Release 5, multiple features and applications can reside on one CD-ROM.
A removable SCSI hard drive is available for the MAP/100P and the MAP/40P platforms. This drive allows for quicker back-ups and restores of large amounts of data. A tape drive is used for backups and restore of data for the MAP/5P and MAP/5PV3.
Other hardware changes include the addition of a PCI LAN card. This card is required for Message Manager, Internet Messaging on Intuity AUDIX, TCP/IP networking, the Enhanced List Application (ELA), and the new DEFINITY C-LAN switch integration. The PCI LAN card works with either a 10-MB or 100-MB Ethernet LAN.
1
This is an optional feature that incurs an additional right-to-use (RTU) fee in Release 5. The feature is standard in Release 5.1.
2
This is an optional feature that incurs an additional right-to-use (RTU) fee.
Administrative Features that are Different from DEFINITY AUDIX
The following table describes significant differences in the administration of the DEFINITY AUDIX and the Avaya Intuity systems.
 
Table: Administrative Features That Differ from DEFINITY AUDIX
Feature
Change Description
Backup and restore
Like the DEFINITY AUDIX system, the Intuity AUDIX system backs up data automatically and also lets you back up data on demand. However, the Intuity AUDIX system lets you select the type of data you want for the backup and restore, and unlike the DEFINITY AUDIX system, you can back up voice messages and greetings.
If you do not rotate your tape cartridges or disk cartridges every night, the Intuity AUDIX system overwrites the data saved the previous night.
System clock time
The Avaya Intuity system clock time is UNIX time, not the time of the connected switch.
Voice port ringing at AUDIX shutdown
If the administrator shuts down the Intuity AUDIX application, but not the whole Avaya Intuity system, calls to AUDIX ring but are not answered. If the administrator shuts down the entire Avaya Intuity system, calls to AUDIX receive a busy signal. In contrast, a call to a DEFINITY AUDIX system always receives a busy signal while the system is shut down.
Administrative Features in DEFINITY AUDIX That Are No Longer Available

The following table describes features that are not available on the Avaya Intuity system.
 
Table: Detail of Administrative Features That Are No Longer Available
Feature
Description
ADAP PC2AUDIX
The Intuity AUDIX system supports only the command line interface of the AUDIX Administration and Data Acquisition Package (ADAP). It does not support the PC2AUDIX part of ADAP.
If you make frequent use of ADAP reports, additional work may be necessary for you to produce reports similar to those you used for the DEFINITY AUDIX system.
Exceeded thresholds in the status line
The Intuity AUDIX system does not have the thresholds field that appears in the status line of the DEFINITY AUDIX system. However, the Alarms field on the Intuity AUDIX status line registers a warning when a threshold is exceeded and Avaya Intuity system records the event in the Administration Log.

Avaya Intuity Administration Tools

The Avaya Intuity system is a hardware and software platform that is separate from the switch. The Intuity AUDIX package and any additional integrated features are loaded onto it. Tools for many maintenance, networking, and switch integration tasks that were used in DEFINITY AUDIX through the basic interface operate through a second, different interface on the Avaya Intuity system. As a result, there are now two administrative interfaces to administer the Intuity AUDIX system. See Overview of Getting Started for more information.

Screen Cross-Reference

In the Avaya Intuity system, you still perform most of the administration tasks that you performed for DEFINITY AUDIX but those tasks are performed from different screens. This section provides two lists:
