Select <OK> and press Enter to partition the hard drive and reformat the partitions

Once the drive is properly configured, the program begins the installation process and reports the
progress.

These processes can take up to 20 minutes. When the media server is ready to reboot, the CD-
ROM drive drawer opens. You must remove the CD from the drive at this time.

The reboot may take up to 3 minutes. The telnet session drops automatically.

Using the Installation Wizard

You can configure the media server and install the license, Avaya authentication files, and software
updates automatically using the Avaya Installation Wizard. You can do it two ways:

You can import the data from the filled-out Electronic Preinstallation Worksheet (EPW).

You can also type in the information manually using the filled-out EPW as a guide.

NOTE:

You can install the license file without being physically connected to the reference IPSI.
However, you have only 30 minutes before it checks the serial number on the IPSI. To get
another 30 minutes, you can restart the clock by restarting the media server. In a SAT
session, type

reset system 1
