BCM 400 Disk Full F:

[jharos]

Hi, i have a Nortel BCM 400 3.7 running, suddenly after a power outage all telephony service configuration got wiped.


Anyway, config has been applied but the F: partition is Full, i have been searching on the forum ([URL unfurl="true"]http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1500686[/url]) they are talking about a patch (370.194), but is there a place to download bcm 3.7 patches, seems everything dissapeared since avaya ate nortel.


The company i bought the bcm, is telling me to replace my bcm for an avaya ip office but dont have the money to buy it.


Thank you

I would still suggest to swap to a linux version and to get rid of the embedded NT... IPO still suckz compared to the BCM R6....

I agree with the last comment. £160 isn't a bad price in the UK for a keycode upgrade from 3.7 to 4.0. Although the product is now end of life, Linux makes it a good system and would give you a few more years of service.

If it's working, then leave it alone!.

Thank you all for your help, will try the patch this weekend. Will check the possibility to upgrade to 4.0, also someone told me to upgrade to Avaya BCM 450 but i still don't know prices.

 

[Firebird Scrambler]

To upgrade to a 450 will mean a new chassis / hardware. Loads of money!.

If it is a 3.7 box, you still have the ability to access it through serial and modify each partition, where you could see what files are in F and possibly delete some before you attempt an upgrade, for a full partition may cause the upgrade to fail.

A full partition would fail the pre-check !!

If its not broke tweak it..

 

[jharos]

it failed for full partition don't know what files are safe to move out of the partition.

 

[cmawbey]

i think that info is in the read me file...

F: drive is usually full due to CDR logs

If its not broke tweak it..

 

[Crowtalks]

CDR logs are typically useless unless you have a 3rd party software tracking your CDR data, so you can free up that space, then proceed with the upgrade.
