Overview
Standard 1.0 Modular Option EC Installation and Maintenance Guide November 1999
Overview
Introduction
You can provide additional disk space or voice channels to an
existing Meridian Mail Modular Option EC system by adding
one or more nodes to the system.
Adding a node
You can add a node in one of two ways, based on your
requirements:
• Incremental expansion Add only one node and configure
the system. Use this method if your system requires only
the additional amount of disk space or voice channels that
can be provided by the addition of one node.
Note: If you want to perform an incremental expansion,
you require the intermediary and final keycode for each
node configuration that you perform. The keycodes are
obtained from your Nortel Networks sales representative
when you order your expansion kits.
• multi-node expansion Add several nodes and configure
the system based on the final node configuration (for
example, two-, three-, four-, or five-node, shadowed or
unshadowed, system). Use this method if your system
requires an additional amount of disk space or voice
channels that can only be provided by adding several
nodes.
Note: You can perform an incremental expansion to
achieve the same result; however, with a multi-node
expansion, you do not have to repeat the intermediary steps
involved in an incremental expansion.
