• All devices on the card are moved over to the Mitel 5000 module (or port), with the
following exceptions:
o Devices not supported by that type of module (or port) in the Mitel 5000. See Table 6-
15, “DB Converter Supported Devices/Device Conversion,” on page 6-28.
o Devices in port positions beyond the capacity of that type of module (or port) in that
bay in the Mitel 5000. See Table 6-15, “DB Converter Supported Devices/Device
Conversion,” on page 6-28.
An exception to this is explained on the next page. (The devices will be shifted up by
the module size and moved over, if all locations on the module would otherwise be
empty.)
• Devices on the card are moved over with the card, usually with no change in port/circuit
position.
o For example, if the device hardware address (node:slot.port) was 01:01.02 in the Inter-
Tel Axxess system and the card is moved to Bay 2 in the Mitel 5000 platform, the
device new hardware address will be 01:02.02, even if port 1 is empty.
o Port position will be changed when no devices reside on the Inter-Tel Axxess card in
the available ports on the IT5K module. In this case, devices will be shifted up by the
number of ports on the IT5K module. Here are two examples:
– You copy a fully populated SLC-16 to a DEI bay. An SLM-8 is created and
populated with the first eight single line devices, and the SLC-16 remains in the
Inter-Tel Axxess view with single line devices in ports 9-16. A logical next step
might be to copy the same SLC-16, now with ports 1-8 empty, to the next empty
DEI bay. As you might expect, another SLM-8 is created and populated with the
single line devices from ports 9-16. The devices are shifted up by the size of the
module, and at this point, the SLC-16 card is removed from the Inter-Tel Axxess
view.
– You first copy the SLC-16 to Bay 1. An SLM-4 is created and populated with the
first four single line devices. You might want to copy the SLC-16 now to Bay 2, but
you are not permitted to do this because the default meta database limits you to a
single SLM-4. So, you copy it now to a DEI bay. This time, an SLM-8 is created,
and the single line devices in ports 5–8 are moved into ports 5–8, leaving ports 1–
4 empty. No shifting was performed because at least one device was found to
transfer into the available ports on the module. The SLC-16 remains in the Inter-Tel
Axxess view with single line devices in ports 9–16. Copying yet again to DEI bay
will create another SLM-8, move over the remaining devices into ports 1-8 and
remove the SLC-16 from the Inter-Tel Axxess view.
• If any devices are not moved over with the card, a copy of the card remains displayed in
the Inter-Tel Axxess view, holding these devices, and a warning message appears.
Review these devices and provide a location for them in another bay in the Mitel 5000
platform.
For example, if a Digital Keyset Card is moved into a DEI bay in the Mitel 5000, and a port
on that card holds a Single-Port LSA, the Single-Port LSA will not be moved with the card.
The user might then drag and drop the Single-Port LSA to any empty location on any Loop
Start Module or in the Loop Start Ports folder in the Mitel 5000 platform. If there are no
available locations for Loop Start devices, and there is an Uninstalled bay available in the
Mitel 5000 platform, the user might create a Loop Start Module in that bay, and then drag
the Single-Port LSA onto that new module.
• If all devices are moved with the card, the card is removed from the Inter-Tel Axxess
system display.
