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 Enter prise Edge 1.0 hardwa re platform. To det ermine 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 a dministrator to request that subscribers delete their old voicemail messages
Ask the System Administrator to request that subscribers delete their old voicemail messages. Fewer messages enable s 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 s etti ngs. Aft er th e upgr ade, you must confi rm tha t set tings mar ked wit h

?
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 r e-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

Business Communications Manager 2.5 Upgrade 5
Prerequisites for installing the upgrade
Warning: When you ins ert or remove the MS-PEC c ards, be care ful not to contact
the MS-PE C cards with the MSC Printed Circuit B oard. Incorre ct handling of the MS-PEC cards during installation can result in the loss of telephony programming.
Note: During the upgrade, your Business Communications Manager system, including the telephony resources, is not functional.
Caution: You must wear an antistatic grounding strap at all times when you handle electronic components. Failure to do so can result in damage to the equipment or loss of telephony programming.
For your system
Your Business Communications Manager system must be at 2.03. If your system is not at
2.03, refer to the Readme.html file on the 2.03 upgrade CD.
Note: Fax over IP is not av ailab le for Busine ss Communic ation s Manager 2.5. If yo u use Fax over IP, assess the impact of losing this capability before you begin the upgrade.
Do not pre-install the DRAM or the MS-PEC III cards. You install these during the upgrade.
Note: If there are any mapped network drives on Business Communic ations Manage r that are used by BRU, disconnect (unmap) these drives using VNC before you start the upgrade.
Log out of any VNC sessions and quit any open Windows applications.
Note: Do not open any VNC or Unified Manager sessions while you perform the upgrade. These sess ions can interfe re with the prog ress of the u pgrade. VNC a ccess to the system is not automatically enabled in Business Communications Manager 2.5.
For the computer you use to do the upgrade
Make sure your browser is s et to c hec k for ne wer ver sions o f stor ed pages on ever y visi t to t he page, and you have cookies enabled. Refer to your browsers online Help for details.
Warning: Netscape is not supported to perform this upgrade. Only Internet Explorer
5.0 or 5.5 is supported.
You must use a computer that is on the same network as your Business Communications Manager system.
Business Communications Manager 2.5 Upgrade Guide
6 Business Communications Manager 2.5 Upgrade
We strongly recommend that you use a computer that is within the same subnet as the Business Communications Manager system that you are upgrading.
You must know how to share folders. If you use Windows 95, 98 or Me, you must enable file sharing. Refer to your Windows system documentation for how to share folders.
For VoIP Trunking
Check the VoIP Remote Gateways that are configured on the Business Communications Manager 2.0.3 system. The Business Communications Manager system allows Remote Gateway names that are a maximum of 15 chara ct er s. If you ha ve any Remote Gateways with names that are longer tha n 15 chara cters , or that contai n space s, rename the Remote Ga teways so they are a maximum of 15 characters long and do not contain spaces. To rename the Remote Gateway, in Unified Manager remove the Remote Gateway and re-enter the Remote Gateway wi th the modified name.
For voicemail
If you change the time zone setting for the Business Communications Manager system, all voicemail messages stored before the time zone change will be inaccessible. It is highly recommended that yo u sele ct the time zone as one o f the f irst items configur ed on the Busin ess Communications Manager and that you do not change it. If it is necessary to change the time zone, notify subscribers to delete all stored messages in their mailboxes. You must reboot the Business Communications Manager system after you change the time zone. This information applies to Business Communications Manager 2.0.3 and 2.5 systems.
You are now ready to start the upgrade. The upgrade can take approximately two to three hours.
Note: A backup of the core telephony configuration is performed during the upgrade process. This backup is used during the upgrade to restore the core telephony configuration, if necessary. This backup can be used on BCM systems that have been upgraded from BCM 2.0.3 to BCM 2.5 but it cannot be used on systems that were purchased with BCM 2.5 software.
