Upgrade Guide

Chapter 4

Post upgrade activities

The following section contains activities that you must perform after the upgrade is complete. You

may not need to perform all of these activities. Not all systems use all the functions listed.

You must manually configure the items that were not preserved during the upgrade to BCM50 3.0

or SRG50 3.0.

Post upgrade tasks

After performing the upgrade to BCM50 3.0, perform the following tasks:

• Confirm system name: This task is to be followed after upgrade from R2.0 to R3.0 and is

only required if the default name bcmm50r2 was in use at the time that the upgrade was

performed. This post upgrade step does not require a reboot.

1 If the default name bcmm50r2 was in use at the time that the upgrade was performed, then

perform step 2 below. Otherwise ignore this task.

2 The upgrade changes the default system name to bcmm50r3, however, the network hosts file

may not be changed in some cases and causes access problems over the network. The user

must therefore change the system name using Element Manager

Configuration->System->Identification screen after the upgrade to ensure that the network

hosts file is changed as well. The first step in this process is to change the system name back to

bcmm50r2 to update the network file. Following this step the system name can be changed to

anything.

• Verify data was correctly preserved: Use Element Manager to verify that your system data

was correctly preserved.

• Test your upgraded BCM50 3.0 system: You can perform several tests to confirm that your

system is functioning properly. For more information about testing the system, see the

Installation and Maintenance Guide.

• Back up data: As soon as you confirm that the system is operating as expected, perform a

backup of all data, using Element Manager (Administration > Backup and Restore). This data

is now your current backup.

• Upgrade client applications: After you upgrade your BCM50 system, you must upgrade the

BCM50 client applications on each client computer (see “Upgrading client applications” on

page 26). The BCM50 client applications must be compatible with the BCM50 software. The

new versions of the client applications are available from the BCM50 Web page.

The IP Softphone 2050 software for BCM50 3.0 is not available on the BCM50 3.0 Web page.

You can order the software from Nortel under the following codes:

— NTDW83BA/A0518031 IP Softphone 2050 v2 CD-ROM

— NTEX14MD/N0087247 IP Softphone 2050 v2 bundle with USB headset adapter

An IP Softphone 2050 version1 functions on a BCM50 3.0 system.
