I did not try that because I would have to attempt another upgrade. So since this is at a hospital it is a sensitive subject and cant just walk in and upgrade.

 

[GHTROUT]

Ah, I see. You backed out of the upgrade, so right now your Ring Gens are working....and the fewer attempts at this upgrade, the better. So posters that have experienced your issue (Ring Gens failing) during a 5.5 upgrade should follow up.

Yes Please.......

I backed out of the upgrade for now and put the system back to 4.50.

I am working with Nortel and they are telling me the system monitor cards could be bad, plus I am supposdly missing a cable that connects the two cores and the system monitor's together. The cores are side by side and other tech's that I have spoke to do not have this flat ribbon cable are working on 5.0. So this does anybody have this cable that connects 2 side by side cores together???

so you backed out and the gen's came back on line? it's not that uncommon to power down a loop after years in service and lose a ps... we had a hold on 5.5 but that has been lifted.. are you sure you have the latest peps? i am on site at a hosp and have a 5.5 upgrade setting on the floor, so i've watching this one also.. they did not order new ring gen's for my 20+ ipe's so i am going to assume our ts thinks they are compatable...

i'm sure you've been around to remember that dc power supplies often fail if you use the face plate switch.. seemed it caused a major arch.. i do know bypassing the on/off switch post fail caused blue smoke...

When I find myself on the road less travelled, it just means I'm lost.

 

[PhoneGuyy]

So you did upgrade from 4.5 to 5.5
What type of system etc...is it????

 

[rstew3]

I have a 61c that we took from 4.5 to 5.5 about a month ago, with no problems with the ring gens at all. It is a hospital as well.

I'm scheduled to go from 4.5 to 5.5 next week. If I can get ahold of the Nortel Tech before then I'll ask if he has heard anything about this.

i have upgraded several large switches{ option 61/81's} from rls3 and 4 in the last 2 months to rls 5.5 with no issues

Do anybody know the procedures or the different Nortel Loads Commands, software, and equipment to installs
on the Nortel Option 61C switch for soft phones to work on laptops.

Hey Tekice

Question for you on your 81c that you upgraded were they side by side cores or on top of each other? Also if they were side by side cores did you have the system monitors connected with a flat ribbon cable?
