Upgrade and repair 
procedures
This chapter provides an overview of the procedures to upgrade and repair the S8100 system. See the Job 
Aid sections in 
 at the beginning of this document for the steps to 
perform the upgrade procedures. The repair procedures involving the replacement of the processor hard 
drive or circuit pack are the same as the corresponding upgrade procedures.
This chapter is organized as follows:
Replace a TN795 Processor circuit pack 
This section shows the basic steps to follow when replacing a TN795 circuit pack with a TN2314 circuit 
pack. The TN2314 replaced the TN795 with release 10. These steps assume the technician will connect a 
laptop directly to the Service Access jack on the faceplate of the TN2314.
Inventory existing features on the
pre-R10 switch and obtain a license file
If the valid license file does not already exist on the system or your laptop, the license file must be 
obtained using Remote Feature Activation (RFA). If you are an approved RFA user, you can obtain and 
install the license file. To become an approved RFA user, you must attend RFA training.
Before obtaining a new license file, you must inventory the existing features and capacities of the TN795 
using the Feature Extraction tool (FET). The FET must be downloaded to your PC by going to one of the 
Remote Feature Activation (RFA) web sites indicated in 
 on page 166. FET will 
provide you with an encrypted switch-configuration file that must be used on the RFA web site to create a 
license file.
 for information about 
obtaining and installing license files.
NOTE:
With Release 10 and later, the init (lucent1) login no longer has the capability to change 
the customer options, offer option, or special applications forms.
