G3vs with Intel 386 or Risc
Processor to R8r
This chapter provides the information necessary to perform an upgrade from
either a Release 5/6 system with a RISC Processor, or from a Generic 3 (G3) vs
system with an Intel
®
386 processor, to a Release 8r system.
The upgrade to a Release 8r system requires a major change of hardware and
software. The port circuit packs from the present system may be reused only if a
site inspection determines that the port circuit pack vintages are usable in the
Release 8r.
Some of the I/O cables from the existing system may be too short to reach from
the Release 8r cabinet to the Main Distribution Frame (MDF). If so, the cables
must be replaced as part of the upgrade process.
