Introduction
This document implements a “source- to-target” approach to performing an
upgrade. It is important to correctly identify the source platform, target
platform, and maintenance window required to perform the upgrade.
Each section features check boxes indicating what state the system should be
in at that stage of the upgrade. If the system is not in the proper state steps
should be taken to correct this.
Each section is written to maintain Dial Tone where possible and limit service
interruptions.
Before attempting any software or hardware upgrade field personnel should
follow the steps in Table 2:
IMPORTANT!
This upgrade requires that the PC you are working from is
equipped with a floppy disk drive and CF reader (or, if a
CF reader is not available, a PCMCIA CF adaptor).

Planning
Planning for an upgrade involves the following tasks:
• Read and understand the current release Product Bulletin.
• Review the current release product bulletin related specifically to the
software being upgraded.
• Conduct a site inspection to determine proper power and grounding.
• Review the site profile to determine proper foot space if adding new
columns or modules.
Note: For information on adding new network shelves, see
Communication Server 1000M and Meridian 1: Large System Installation
and Commissioning (NN43021-310).
• Ensure sufficient power for new columns/modules or applications.
• Identify all applications that are currently installed on the source
platform.
• Identify and correct outstanding service problems.
• Verify the site log is updated with current trunking, call routing,
application notes, and site contact information.
• Review all product bulletins and Nortel Alerts that impact the site.

• Determine if software can be converted on site or must be sent to Nortel.
• Prepare a contingency plan for backing out of the upgrade.
Upgrade Checklists
Upgrade checklists can be found in “Upgrade checklists” on page 263.
Engineers may print this section for reference during the upgrade.
Preparing
Preparing for an upgrade involves the following tasks:
• Identify and become familiar with all procedures.
• Verify that all installed applications meet the minimum software
requirements for the target platform (see Communication Server 1000M
and Meridian 1: Large System Planning and Engineering
(NN43021-220)).
• Verify proper cable lengths for the target platform.
• Determine and note current patch or Dep lists installed at the source
platform.
• Determine required patch or Dep lists at the target platform for all
system-patchable components (Call Server, Voice Gateway Media
Cards, Signaling Servers and so on).
• Determine the required patches or DEP lists installed on all applications
(CallPilot, Symposium Call Center Server, Meridian Mail, TM 3.1, and
so on).
• Determine and communicate the required maintenance window,
contingency plan and the impact to the customer to complete the
procedure.
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
In a DC-powered system, power to the column can
remain on during the following procedures. In an
AC-powered system, however, power to the entire

• Print site data.
Identifying the proper procedure
Each procedure has been written in a “source- to-target” format. Each
procedure features warning boxes and check boxes placed at critical points.
Changing the procedure or ignoring the warning boxes could cause longer
service interruptions.
Connect a terminal
Procedure 1
Connecting a terminal
A maintenance terminal is required to access the Core or Core/Net modules
during the upgrade procedure.
1 Connect a terminal to the J25 port on the I/0 panel in the inactive Core or
Core/Net module.
2 The settings for the terminal are:
a. 9600 baud
b. 8 data

3 If only one terminal is used for both Core or Core/Net modules, the
terminal must be connected from side-to-side to access each module.
An “A/B” switch box can also be installed to switch the terminal from side
to side.

Performing a template audit
A template audit (LD 01) reviews the templates in your system. Corrupted
and duplicate templates are cleaned up. An example of the information
generated during the audit is listed below.
Note: The template audit may take an extended period of time on large
systems. Run the audit during a low traffic period.
