Change announcement extensions

[telecomadmin12]

I have announcements stored on TN750C circuit packs. I would like to change the extension of the announcements without having to rerecord anything. Just change the number. Is there a way to do that?

I think you can do it with ASA ( Avaya Site Administration ) - You got there wizard of Swap stations.

Thank you.
That feature is to swap stations. I would like to change the extensions of announcements.
Any other ideas?

Hardware platform? Definity/CM software version?

tn750C are not supported on newer linux platforms. The only storage is on the board.

tn750C can only store 255 seconds total on each board. Announcements are stored on the board
and can be saved to flash card for legacy g3si, g3csi and can be saved to disk for legacy g3r
as well as MO Disks (one board per hard disk, one board per MO disk, one board per flash card)
Storage of extension to uid in Definity software tables for each announcement on each board is
used and this extension to uid to board is used to save onto the boards. tn750C boards can be
unplugged and will hold the announcement data on the boards flash memory. tn750B and tn750 will
lose any stored announcement when unplugged. Restores from backup media put recorded announcements
back into switch memory indexed by uid, extension, board data that is used to save them.

Bottom line. You will need to add a new announcement extension, record it.

delete the old announcment(s) from the board with feature-access-code

removing the announcement from Definity/CM administration may not remove the recorded announcement
from the board. This works the same for tn2501 boards with .wav files.
.wav files must be deleted from the board. The "erase" command will blank all announcement data on
tn750 or tn2501

There is no software audits to assure all announcement extensions have an associated recording.
There is no software audits to assure all recordings have announcement extensions. Housekeeping is a tedious
but necessary task to maintain used and unused space on all boards and audio groups

Software Load: R013x.00.1.346.0
Memory Configuration: G3xV13
CM3.0

Thank you for all the info.
Bottom line, I have to rerecord all announcements to different extensions. I can't just change the announcement extension and keep the announcement.

You can only do this with valboards. Valboard announcements are associated with .wav files.
new extension used can have a name that is associated with the name of a .wav file.

1001 - name = 1001_extension - board will need 1001_extension.wav
1002 - name = 1002_extension - board will need 1002_extension.wav

copy 1001_extension.wav to 3001_extension.wav

add announcement 3001 - name = 3001_extension - board will need 3001_extension.wav on the val board.

1001 and 3001 will be two announcements with same recording. each .wav can be changed by replacing or
by re-recording the associated extension's .wav file.

This manipulation is not possible with tn750 boards and the technology behind their design.

Can I export and import wav files from and to Valboards?
