6. 6 Upgrade Path Overview

7. 7 Allowed Upgrades and Expansions Release 3 is Sustained, you can add TN�s and features to existing Release 3 systems. If customers do not upgrade to Release 5 they must stay on their current release, they can and should upgrade to the latest issue of that release All systems prior to Release 3 (including x11 R25 and older) are Retired or End of Life Upgrades can only be done to Release 5 Expansions require an upgrade to Release 5 first Systems on Release 25 and earlier require an OrderPro file to upgrade to Release 5 OrderPro recommended for all upgrades to populate site survey

8. 8 Enterprise Configurator and Upgrades EC 7.x (7.1) is now available to quote upgrades to Release 5 and Release 4.5 expansions

9. 9 OrderPro OrderPro is required for Release 25 and earlier systems to convert to the CVSD software structure OrderPro is recommended for all upgrades to assist in populating the site survey See the EC release notes for each release for the minimum OrderPro release required Log files can be extracted from earlier version of OrderPro, but may not have full site survey details

Existing NTTK13 or NTTK25 Option 11C 48MB Blank Software Daughterboard

19. 19 SSC Memory Requirements M1 Option 11C Flash Memory Daughterboard requirements have not changed since Release 25�still 48 MB NTTK13 or NTTK25 NTTK13 Flash Memory Daughter boards look very much like the older NTDK81AA and use the same NTDK8101 base circuit card. Some technicians will try to replace them thinking they are the older cards Since there was an increased DRAM memory requirement (32MB vs. 16MB) with Release 4, most older installed base systems require DRAM memory upgrades Systems shipped since May 2004 are equipped with NTDK20HA or JA with 32 MB DRAM and are compatible Memory Upgrade kit (NTDK19BA) is available to upgrade DRAM SIMM on any SSC (except NTDK20AB or NTDK20CA Release 1-5) to 32 MB Because of the evolution of the NTDK20, simply adding the DRAM memory upgrade will not automatically convert any SSC into a NTDK20HA

20. 20 SSC Upgrades or Replacements for M1 Older SSC Cards NTDK20AB and NTDK20CA Release 1-5 are not supported on Release 5 and must be replaced with a new NTDK20JA. NTDK20AB Release 1-5 cards were originally shipped with systems from August 1996 to May 1997. NTDK20CA cards are NTDK20AB cards upgraded to CA using the NTDK19AA SSC upgrade kit. For NTDK20AB/CA Release 6 and higher cards, Provision a NTDK19BA SSC upgrade kit which upgrades it to a CA vintage and 32MB of DRAM memory. Card vintage and release can only be determined by physical inspection.

21. 21 Upgrades of Legacy Meridian 1 Option 21, 21E, 51 to Option 11C Cabinet The most economical upgrade path from any of these systems is to run a new Option 11C Cabinet quote.

49. 49 Hardware CompatibilityCards not supported on Release 5

50. 50 Applications Compatibility Generally, only applications that are current or sustained when a release becomes Generally Available (GA) are supported See the Product Bulletin for a complete listing of compatible applications A key thing to remember for upgrades of CS1000S and CS1000M Cabinet and Chassis systems is that when they become CS1000E systems, some applications are no longer supported that were previously supported or are still supported on CS1000M SG/MG IP Phone 2004 Phase 0 Traditional Music on Hold/Delay using conference packs Call Pilot for Contact Center Broadcast announcements Meridian Mail and CallPilot 2.02 The next few charts highlight the changes from Release 4.5

55. 55 System Compatibility MatrixChanges From Release 4.5�Continued Mini Carrier Remote � Recommended Vintage 12.02 or 12.03 Earlier vintages may work, but if there is a problem you must upgrade to 12.03 or later. Each MCR LMI, LMX and RMI card must be on Release 12.02 (Nov 2004), 12.03 (Nov 2005) or higher. NT5D6xBA or CA vintage Mini Carrier Remote cards can be upgraded using a NT7R76AC MCR Flash Upgrade module The purpose of this Flash Module is to upgrade the MCR firmware to Release 06 of the CB vintage, hardware Release 12 for the LMI and the LMX, or Release 11 for the RMI. NT5D6xAA vintage cards cannot be upgraded in the field and must be returned to Nortel Repair Center for upgrade as per the Advanced Replacement Procedure.

56. 56 Enterprise Configuration Management Signaling Server Considerations

57. 57 Network Routing ServerMixed Versions Any Network Routing Server (NRS) that is running CS 1000 Release 5.0 software can only synchronize data with another NRS also running CS 1000 Release 5.0. The Alternate NRS must also be upgraded to Release 5.0 before synchronization can occur. Any Failsafe NRS must be running Release 5.0 Any nodes with a Failsafe NRS must be running Release 5.0. In practice this will govern the order in which NRS and Nodes can be updated, and may mean disabling any Failsafe NRS functions for a while as the network is undergoing upgrade. If the entire network is not to be upgraded to Release 5.0, but portions kept on a prior Release, there are two options available: Disable Failsafe NRS on nodes not on Release 5.0 Leave the NRS on Release 4.x and upgrade only the nodes to Release 5.0 that are required. This will of course mean that any new features that require the Release 5.0 NRS are not implemented
