AE Services Bundled Server Installation Notes: • AE Services Bundled Server will be offered on an IBM x306 Server. The same server used by the S8500B Media Server. • The IBM x306 used by S8500B Media Server does not come with enough memory to support AE Services. The IBM x306(S8500B) comes with only 512MB RAM. An additional 512MB RAM SIM will need to be ordered and installed in order to support AE Services. • The AE Services Bundled Server will use the Augmentix Server Availability Management Processor (SAMP™ ) Board for remote maintenance. • The AE Services Bundled Server installation is a headless (no monitor or keyboard) installation. • A Laptop and crossover cable will be required to install the AE Services Bundled Server (headless install). • If the site has access to a monitor and keyboard, the AE Services Bundled Server installation can also be done with a monitor and keyboard as well.

Bundled Server Disk Partioning Scheme • The Bundled Server has a SATA Hard Disk with 80GB of disk space. Once AE Services is installed on the Bundled server, it has three disk partitions. – / -the active partition - with approximately 18GB of space – /root2 - the inactive or offline partition - with approximately 18GB of space – /var - the common partition - with approximately 37GB of space The remaining space is allocated for cache and other uses.
Converged Solutions
Contact Center Solutions 61
Customer Services
Bundled Server Disk Notes: • The AE Services software is installed on the / active partition during a fresh installation. When an upgrade of AE Services software is performed, the upgrade script installs the new version of AE Services software on the /root2 inactive partition first. The upgrade script then reboots the Bundled server. Upon reboot the / and /root2 partitions are switched. So, the new version of AE Services software is now on / active partition and the old version is on the /root2 partition. • If you want to create directories or files on AE Server, it is strongly recommended that you create in the /var common partition. Otherwise any directory or file created in the / active partition will be moved to the /root2 partition upon an upgrade of AE Services software. One exception is that any directory or file created in the /home directory under any of the logins such as sroot, craft, and so on, are always copied over during an upgrade. Because copying large files such as media files or databases, is time consuming, it can delay the upgrade process if these files are stored in the /home directory of any login. • Place a copy of the AE Services License in the /var common partition. • /var persist across updates and upgrades but not fresh installations.
