12.7 ADDING LANGUAGES
When more than one language is used, disk space must be allocated and prompts must be installed for each
additional language added. This section describes the procedures to upgrade the disk space and to add language
prompts using floppy disks. If you plan to add languages over the LAN, refer to the Feature Description volume,
LAN Backup and Restore chapter.
.Disk space can be allocated and languages added before Order Administration increases the number of
purchased languages. Languages installed, but not purchased, cannot be used. The first language installed
(Language 1) is the only language used if additional languages have been added, but not purchased.

Upgrade Languages

This section provides the procedures to follow to prepare the system disk(s) for more than one language. Up to a
maximum of six languages can be installed.
.Disk space for the additional prompts can be allocated and languages added before they have been purchased.
Order Administration can increase the number of languages installed on the message server to a maximum of
four.
When the DISKO option, Upgrade Language is entered, the message server prompts to enter the quantity of
languages desired. The amount of reallocated disk space is determined by the number of languages entered.
The upgrade can take several hours.
Caution!
When Upgrade Language is performed, the voice
storage capacity on each system drive is decreased by
approximately one hour per language installed. Each
system drive must have at least one hour of voice
storage for each language installed, as prompts are
stored redundantly.
