Job Aid: Replacing the Hard Drive on the Avaya

S8500 Media Server— R2.2 or Later

This job aid describes the steps required to replace the hard drive on an Avaya S8500 or

S8500B Media Servers running Release 2.2 or later of Avaya Communication Manager. This

job aid should be used only if a failure has occurred and it is determined that the hard drive

should be replaced.

The replacement hard drive comes blank. You must install the software from the CD-ROM that

the customer received from an earlier installation of Release 2.2 software. The software

CD-ROM contains the Linux operating system and the appropriate release of Avaya

Communication Manager.

Required equipment

Verify that you have the following equipment and tools on site:

●Replacement hard drive

●CD-ROM with the software load (from the customer)

●Ethernet crossover cable for direct connection of your laptop to the media servers

●Flat-head screwdriver

●Cross-point (Phillips) screwdriver

●Electrostatic wrist ground strap and mat

Pre-site tasks

Before you go on site, verify that the following tasks are done.

●Ask the customer for the Product ID for the media server having the hard drive replaced. If

the customer does not have it, run the Automatic Registration Tool (ART) to obtain the

Product ID number and port number (customer dial-up) for the replacement hard drive.

●If the customer is using SNMP for alarming, you will need to get the IP addresses and

community names from the customer because the SNMP programming is not saved after

the replacement.

2 Replacing the Hard Drive on the Avaya 8500 Media Server

●Verify that you have the correct software and software update (patch). You must install the

software on the media server with the replaced hard drive, and you might need to install a

software update (patch).

●Verify that you have the current license and Avaya authentication files to install on the new

hard drive. Go to the Remote Feature Activation (RFA) Web site to get them (http://

rfa.avaya.com).

●Verify that the customer has a recent backup of all the system and translation files. This is

critical if the hard drive is not functional.

●Verify with the customer that you have access permissions to restore the data from the

network server.

Hard drive considerations

If the hard drive is not functional, make sure the customer has a recent backup of the system

files and translations that you can restore after you have replaced the hard drive. If not, the

media server needs to be reconfigured and translations input as if it were a new installation.

See Installing and Configuring the Avaya S8500 Media Server (03-300144) for detailed

procedures. Additionally, some illustrations of software installation and configuration information

appear later in this document.

Except where noted in the following checklist, see Upgrading Software and Firmware— Avaya

S8500, S8700, and S8710 Media Servers (555-245-111) for details on the tasks.

Tasks to replace the hard drive

Tasks for replacing a hard drive on an S8500 Media Server

9Task Description

1 Insert the software CD in the

CD drive of the media server

Important!

Push the button to open the CD-ROM drawer. Place the

Communication Manager CD in the drawer and close it.

The software CD contains boot software that the media server

automatically accesses when you power up the media server

later.

2Shut down the media server If the hard drive is functional, under Server, click Shutdown

This Server and do not select “Restart Server after

Shutdown.” Press the power-control button on the front of the

server. The internal fan shuts off.

If the hard drive is not functional, press the power-control

button to power down the server.

Caution: Do not hold down the power button for more than a

split second. Holding the button down too long causes the

media server to reboot.

3 Unplug the media server Once the media server is completely shut down (the green

power-on LED is blinking), unplug the power cord from the

media server.

Disconnect and label the LAN connections from the Ethernet

ports on the RSA/SAMP and dual NIC (if used).

Disconnect all attached devices, including the laptop, both

modems, and the external flashcard reader (if used).

4Make media server top

accessible

Pull the media server forward until the mounting rails lock into

place.

Note: You do not need to remove the media server from the

rails.

6 Replace the hard drive ●S8500B: see Replacing the hard drive in the

S8500B media server on page 8.

●S8500: see Replacing the hard drive in the S8500

media server on page 10.

8Slide the media server back in

place

Release the retaining tabs on the rails and slide the media

server back into place in the data rack.

9 Power up the media server Plug the power cords into the media server and RSA/SAMP.

Press the power-control button on the front of the media

server.

Note: Wait at least 3 minutes for the media server to complete

its power up. Watch the power-on LED on the media server

(the green LED is on steady).

10 Reconnect attached devices Reconnect all attached devices, including the laptop, both

modems, and the external flashcard reader (if used).
