Upgrading R5si/R6si to R8r EPN
and Adding Memory
This chapter provides the information necessary to upgrade a Single-Carrier
Cabinet (SCC) Release 5si/Release 5si + memory/Release 6si system with a
TN790 RISC processor to a Release 8 EPN.
The existing SCC PPN is always upgraded to an EPN. The new multicarrier
cabinet always serves as the PPN. Upgrading to an EPN for a Release 8r
requires changing, and often restructuring, the expansion interface circuit packs.
Hardware changes (including carrier replacement in the SCC cabinet) is
required.
This upgrade assumes that the Release 8r cabinet has already been installed. If
not, refer to
DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Installation
and Test for Multicarrier Cabinets
to install the Release 8r system. Return to this
chapter when finished.
In this chapter, all occurrences of Release 5si and Release 5si + memory are
called Release 5si unless a specific configuration is required to differentiate
between product offerings.
DEFINITY Enterprise Communications Server Release 8 Administrator’s Guide
lists Release 8 features and functions and provides the commands, procedures,
and forms to initialize and administer the Release 8r.
