Backing up recovery system files on the active server
Note:
You can only save translations on the active media server.
Note:
To back up system configuration files:
1. Under Data Backup/Restore, click Backup Now.
2. Select the data sets. For the main server only, select Avaya Call Processing (ACP)
translations and Save ACP translations prior to backup. An ESS gets translations from
the main server, so there is no reason to backup the translations on an ESS. Do not select
Full Backup because this option does not save translations.
Note:
If you back up to a flashcard, Avaya recommends that you use a different
Note:
flashcard from the one with the prior release translations. You might need these
translations if you need to back out of the upgrade, migration, or conversion
procedure.
3. Select the backup method.
4. Click Start Backup to start the back up process.
Releasing alarm suppression (optional)
If you complete the upgrade well before the time set when you suppressed alarming, you might
want to release alarm suppression manually rather than wait for the system to release alarm
suppression.
To release alarm suppression:
1. Access the command line interface of the server with an SSH client like PuTTY and an IP
address of 192.11.13.6.
2. Log in as craft or dadmin.
3. Type almsuppress -n and press Enter to release alarm suppression.
4. Log off.
Logging off all administration applications
When you complete all the administration, log off all the applications that you used.
