DAHDI 2.9.0 Upgrade Notes

These notes only apply to Digium TE133 or TE134 cards that are in firmware version 770017 or earlier.

Warning

The system will need to be power cycled after the upgrade. Your cards will not be usable until then.

After the upgrade

First, you need to install the latest firmware for your TE133 or TE134 cards:

xivo-fetchfw install digium-te133
xivo-fetchfw install digium-te134

Then stop all the services and reload the DAHDI modules. Reloading the DAHDI module might take up to 30 seconds:

xivo-service stop
service dahdi stop
service dahdi start

Following this manipulation, you should see something similar at the end of the /var/log/messages file:
