Upgrade tips
The following upgrade tips were generated from problems identified in the
laboratory or during early introduction.
■ Adding a third memory circuit pack and an optical drive requires a second
non-call-preserving service interruption. See Chapter 1, ‘‘Upgrading
G3rV2, V3, V4 to R8r and Adding Memory’’.
■ When upgrading a DEFINITY ECS R8r to a duplicated system (B carrier)
or adding a switch node carrier (D carrier), you may receive a carrier that
looks different than the ones currently installed. The enhanced carriers
come with 16 grounding straps that connect to the carrier connector
panel. See ‘‘Add a Control Carrier (Add Duplication)’’ on page 6-80
, ‘‘Add
a Switch Node Carrier (Standard Reliability)’’ on page 6-94, and ‘‘Add a
Switch Node Carrier (High or Critical Reliability)’’ on page 6-108.
NOTE:
An enhanced carrier is used only in an R8r PPN cabinet that uses
either AC power (U.S.) or Global power.
