16. An advisory dialog box will display. Click OK to close the box.
17. When the BCM is fully powered down, i.e. the status and power LED’s
are unlit, it will be safe to install the FEM MBM’s. The FEM dip switches
should be all be set to On before installing in the BCM. Refer to the
Configuring the MBM Dip Switches & Powering up the BCM
section of the Media Bay Modules guide.
Keycode Credit System
It is now possible to remove software entitlements from one BCM and add
them to a pool for distribution to other BCM systems. A Distributor or Avaya
Channel Partner would manage the entitlement pool, whereas the BCM
installer would apply a Keycode file sent from the Keycode supplier with a
reduced set of features onto the BCM, and generate a Credit Proof File to
send back to the Keycode supplier so that “liberated” Keycodes can be
applied to the entitlement pool. When the Keycodes have been entered into
the entitlement pool, they can be distributed to other BCM systems.
Note: At present, the Keycode Credit System is only applicable to BCM Rls
5.0 or later BCM’s. Also, transferral of Keycodes between BCM50 and other
platforms (and vice versa) is not possible.
Note: Entitlements can only be transferred between BCM’s belonging to the
same customer. Also, each BCM must be registered to the customer’s
entitlement pool in the Keycode Retrieval System (KRS).
An overview of the process or removing Keycodes from a donor BCM and
applying these to the entitlement pool for distribution is described as follows:
1. In the Avaya Keycode Retrieval System (KRS), generate a Keycode
with reduced entitlements then apply it to the donor BCM.
2. Generate a Keycode Credit Proof file and reboot the BCM (this
deactivates the features on the donor BCM that you wish to transfer to
other BCMs).
3. Transfer Credit Proof file to KRS to activate the credit.
4. KRS Validates the Credit proof file and the Credit becomes available to
the customer.
