Determining an Available SCSI ID

The RUK can contain either a JAZ or MO disk cartridge drive. Determine which disk cartridge drive is in your RUK and then determine which SCSI ID to use by using the information and procedures in this section.

The following SCSI ID settings are recommended for the external JAZ and MO disk cartridge drives:
 
External Disk Cartridge Drive Type
SCSI ID Setting
JAZ disk cartridge drive
5
MO disk cartridge drive
4

However, on some systems SCSI ID 4 or 5 might be used by another device. This procedure helps you determine whether you can use SCSI ID 4 or 5 or if you must use another SCSI ID.

These systems need to have SCSI ID 4 or 5 available for use by the external disk cartridge drive:

To determine whether SCSI ID 4 or 5 is available:

  1. From the Avaya Intuity Main Menu, select:
  2. Customer/Services Administration

    	System Verification

    		View Installed Hardware

    The system displays the View Installed Hardware Window.

  3. Press F3 (Nextpage) to view all assigned SCSI IDs.
  4. Confirm whether SCSI ID 4 or 5 is being used by an existing device. If the SCSI IDs are being used, select another available SCSI ID.
  5. Possible SCSI IDs range from 0 through 6.

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.

Installing the SCSI Interface Circuit Card in the MAP/40 System


 

Note: This task is used only with old MAP/40 systems that do not have an external SCSI connection. If the MAP/40 system has an external SCSI connection or if the old system is not a MAP/40, skip this task and go to the next task.

To install the SCSI interface card from the RUK in the MAP/40 system:

  1. Look in the back of the system at the second slot from the top and then do one of the following:
  2. Remove the dress cover from the front of the system.
  3. Remove the four screws from the bottom of the system that retain the dress cover, and then remove the dress cover.
  4. Loosen the screws retaining the circuit card cage cover, and then remove the cover.

  5. Observe proper electrostatic discharge precautions when you handle computer components. Wear an antistatic wrist strap that touches your bare skin and connect the strap cable to an earth ground. For detailed electrostatic discharge instructions, see Protecting Against ESD Damage on the Intuity Messaging Solutions Release 5 Documentation for Technicians CD-ROM, 585-313-807.

  6. Locate the SCSI interface circuit card and then remove the system cables from the SCSI interface card.
  7. Remove the circuit card retaining screw.
  8. Gently remove the SCSI interface circuit card from the MAP/40 system.
  9. Remove the SCSI interface circuit card from the RUK and then take it out of the antistatic bag.
  10. Insert the SCSI interface circuit card in the open slot.
  11. Connect the system cables.

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. Determine which type of external disk cartridge drive the RUK contains, for example, either an External JAZ Disk Cartridge Drive or an External Magneto-Optical (MO) Disk Cartridge Drive.
  3. Do one of the following:
  4. Confirm that the Intuity AUDIX system is completely powered down.
  5. Find the SCSI port on your platform.
  6. The SCSI port is most likely found at or near the standard location shown in External SCSI Connectors, except MAP/100P or MAP/100P External SCSI Connector.

  7. Remove the external SCSI terminator, if one exists, from the system SCSI connection.
  8. Determine which of three cables from the RUK to use to connect the external SCSI connector to the external 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.
  9. 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.
  10. Attach the other end of the cable to the external SCSI connector on the old system.
  11. Connect the external drive to electrical power and turn on the power switch. This switch is located at the back right side of the drive.
     

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