Mitel MiVoice Business/MCD/3300 / Inherited Mitel Role - Question regarding maintenance best practices
« on: July 25, 2025, 02:10:25 PM »
Hi!
So happy to find this community! I recently have temporarily inherited administration of our Mitel system after a coworker left. Management is looking for a replacement but in the mean time I'm just trying to maintain the system. We are migrating our VMs to new hardware and as a result I'll need to shut down the Mitel VMs. My question is, does it matter what order the VMs come back up? I seem to remember my coworker mentioning something about a reboot order but I can't find documentation saying for sure. Here's what we have for VMs:
The migration process involves replicating on the new nodes, then cloning the VM exactly, including MAC address. I really appreciate any guidance provided, I'm definitely out of my comfort zone. Apologies if I left out any relevant information!
Thanks!

I seem to remember my coworker mentioning something about a reboot order but I can't find documentation saying for sure. Here's what we have for VMs:
- 2 Mitel Border Gateways, one Main, one secondary
- MiCollab Voicemail
- MiVoice Business Controller
- Teleworker
