Configuration and Maintenance Manual

IAWC Migration

This release of MCA allows you to maintain your existing Inter-Tel Audio and Web Conferencing

(IAWC) data and upgrade to the latest version of MCA on MAS. If qualified, the existing IAWC

server hardware can be reused and upgraded to run the latest MCA software. In this section,

an overview of the IAWC to MCA migration process is provided.

Manually Backup IAWC Data

Use the IAWC administrator interface to backup the legacy IAWC system data. For details on

performing a backup, refer to the Inter-Tel Audio and Web Conferencing Installation and

Programming Manual (part number 835.2726). From the Manual Server Backup page, you can

select the data that you want to restore for the upgrade to MCA. The following options are

available:

• User/call database: Selected by default. This data includes user information, such as

accounts and scheduled conferences. The user/call database must be backed up or the

IAWC migration restore will fail.

• SSL Certificate: Selected by default. If an SSL Certificate is included in the manual backup,

the information is saved but not restored during the IAWC migration. For information about

restoring SSL Certificates on MAS, refer to the Mitel Applications Suite Installation and

Maintenance Guide.

• Documents: This data includes recordings and uploaded documents from active and ex-

pired conferences.

• Configuration files: This data includes system settings, such as Web conferencing set-

tings, port reservations, and LDAP configuration.

• Custom branding: This data is not included in the IAWC backup file (see NOTE below).

The IAWC manual backup will create a .tgz file on the IAWC server, and then allow you to select

a location to save the data. Save the data to a location other than on the IAWC server, so it will

be easy to retrieve and restore to MCA.

Changing to MCA Licenses

Licensing is different after migrating from IAWC to MCA. The HASP key is not used with MCA

and the old license file is not restored during the data migration. The license for MAS is created

Note: The IAWC server must be running the latest software version (v3.0.46) before

the existing data can be migrated to MCA.

Note: Install the IAWC migration software (v3.0.b45), available at Mitel OnLine

(https://www.ebiz.mitel.com) in Software Downloads, prior to performing a backup to

ensure IAWC data is migrated properly. For details, refer to the release notes included

with the IAWC migration software.

Note: Custom logos, prompts, and music-on-hold recordings are not included when

you back up the IAWC data. You must manually save these files to restore them after

the migration to MCA is complete.
