Verifying the External and Internal Disk Cartridge Drive Types

To verify the external and internal disk cartridge drive types:

  1. Identify the internal disk cartridge drive type in the old system.
  2. The name "JAZ" is printed on the front of a JAZ disk cartridge drive. The name "Gigamo" is printed on the front of a MO disk cartridge drive.

  3. Identify the internal disk cartridge drive type on the new system.
  4. Identify the type of external disk cartridge drive that is in the RUK:
  5. See External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive and External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive.

  6. Use the following table to determine your next task:
     
    If...
    Then...
    • the old system has an internal JAZ disk cartridge drive installed
    • the new system has an internal MO disk cartridge drive installed
    • the RUK contains an external MO disk cartridge drive
    • the old system has an internal JAZ disk cartridge drive installed
    • the new system has an internal JAZ disk cartridge drive installed
    skip the next three tasks and continue with Backing Up the Database.
    • the old system has an internal JAZ disk cartridge drive installed
    • the new system has an internal MO disk cartridge drive installed

    • the old system has an internal MO disk cartridge drive installed
    • the new system has an internal MO disk cartridge drive installed
    skip the next three tasks and continue with Backing Up the Database.

Shutting Down the System

To shut down the system:

  1. Start at the Avaya Intuity Main Menu and select:
  2. Customer/Services Administration
    System Management
    System Control
    Shutdown System

  3. Do one of the following:
  4. Watch for messages that indicate that a shutdown is in progress.
  5. When the system is completely shut down, the system displays the following message:

    The system is down.
    Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to reboot your computer.

  6. Turn the power switch off.

Attaching the External Disk Cartridge Drive

To attach the external disk cartridge drive to the old system:

  1. Remove the external disk cartridge drive from the RUK.
  2. Do one of the following:
  3. Confirm that the Intuity AUDIX system is completely powered down.
  4. Find the SCSI port on the system.
  5. The SCSI port is most likely found at or near the standard location shown in External SCSI Connectors, except MAP/100P.

  6. Remove the external SCSI terminator, if one exists, from the system SCSI connection.
  7. Determine which of three cables from the RUK to use to connect the external SCSI connector to the external disk cartridge drive. Depending on the external disk cartridge drive, the SCSI port is one of three types shown in either Cables for External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive or Cables for External MO Disk Cartridge Drive.
  8. Connect one end of the cable to the upper SCSI connector on the back of the external cartridge drive. See either External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive Settings or External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive Settings.
  9. Attach the other end of the cable to the external SCSI connector on the old system.
  10. Connect the external disk cartridge drive to electrical power and turn on the drive's power switch. See either External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive Settings or External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive Settings.
     

    Note: The external drive must be turned on before you can turn on the power for the Avaya Intuity system.

Restarting the Old System

To restart the old system and begin the upgrade backup:

  1. Turn on the power switch on the old system.
