Configuration changes are service affecting. Do these procedures during a planned maintenance window when there is no traffic on the system. Inform all users that calls cannot be placed during this time frame, and that any active calls will be dropped.
Before you begin
Collect the following information:
IPv4 IP address of the EMS server
Network Passphrase
This was the passphrase used when the system was first deployed. For more information, see Deploying Avaya Session Border Controller on a Hardware Platform, Deploying Avaya Session Border Controller on a Virtualized Environment Platform, or Deploying Avaya Session Border Controller on an Avaya Aura® Appliance Virtualization Platform.
(Optional) - IPv4 IP address of the system NTP server
<NTP_IP> is optional, the IPv4 IP address of the deployment NTP server
<V6_EMS_IP> is optional, the IPv6 IP address of the EMS server
STEP RESULT:
If the conversion is successful, you will see a message similar to the following example and the system reboots:
Rebooting the system for changes to take effect SBCE Re-configure Successful. Check the IPCS CM log for more information..
If the system does not reboot and you see error messages on the screen, contact Avaya support.
Important:
If the EMS is unreachable, or if the EMS version does not match the SBC version, the command stops and no changes are made.
Next steps
After the SBC reboots and processes restart, if the SBC is not shown as Commissioned under Device ManagementDevices, restart the processes on the SBC using the following command:
/etc/init.d/ipcs-init restart
For EMS to manage the license on the new SBC, navigate to Device ManagementLicensing and update the license.
