Business Communications Manager 2.5 Upgrade Guide
Business Communications Manager 2.5
Upgrade
To perform the Business Communications Manager upgrade
1. Determine whether you can perform the upgrade
You can perform the upgrade on a Business Communications Manager platform only. Do not
perform the upgrade on an Enterprise Edge 1.0 hardware platform. To determine whether you have
an Enterprise Edge or a Business Communications Manager platform, check the Comm Port
connectors. If the ports are multicolored you have a Business Communications Manager platform
and can perform the upgrade. If the ports are not multicolored, you have an Enterprise Edge 1.0
hardware platform and cannot perform the upgrade.
2. Ask the system administrator to request that subscribers delete their old
voicemail messages
Ask the System Administrator to request that subscribers delete their old voicemail messages.
Fewer messages enables the system to upgrade faster. During the upgrade, the message storage
format is converted to a new format (from SBC to G711.)
3. Record the 2.0.3 configuration data
Use the tables in “Business Communications Manager 2.0.3 Configuration Information” on page
39 to record your 2.0.3 settings. After the upgrade, you must confirm that settings marked with
?
are present on the system. If not, reapply the settings using the values you recorded in these tables.
4. Print the Call Center Reporting Configuration Report
If you use Call Center Reporting, print the Configuration Report so you have a record of your
configuration. Have the report handy during the upgrade. After the upgrade is complete you must
manually re-enter the settings for skillset statistical thresholds, print schedules and wallboard
information.
5. Perform the upgrade
Follow the instructions:
• “Performing the upgrade” on page 7
• “Installing the DRAM” on page 33
• “Installing the MS-PEC III cards” on page 37
