Attaching the External Disk Cartridge Drive to the New System

The following procedure describes how to attach a JAZ or a Magneto-Optical (MO) disk cartridge drive to the new system.

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

  1. Get 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. Identify the SCSI port on a the new system. See either External SCSI Connectors, except MAP/100P or MAP/100P External SCSI Connector, depending on the new system platform.
  5. Remove the external SCSI terminator, if one exists, from the system SCSI connection.
  6. Determine which of three cables from the RUK to use to connect the external SCSI connector to the external cartridge drive. The SCSI port is one of three types shown in Cables for External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive or Cables for External MO Disk Cartridge Drive, depending on the external disk cartridge drive.
  7. Connect one end of the cable to the upper SCSI connector on the back of the external cartridge drive. See External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive Settings or External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive Settings.
  8. Attach the other end of the cable to the external SCSI connector on the new system.
  9. Connect the external disk cartridge drive to electrical power and turn on the power switch. See External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive Settings or External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive Settings.
     

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

Restarting the New System

To restart the new system:
