Rstdatañrestore Data From Backup Tape - Nortel Meridian Meridian 1 Maintenance Manual

rstdata—restore data from backup tape
If restoring configuration files and data files becomes necessary due to
catastrophic conditions such as a hard disk failure, use this command to
recover the data and return to an operational state. Complete information
on backup and restore procedures for a hard disk failure are provided in
Chapter 8, "Recovery/replacement procedures".
Note: The following example shows the command being executed on
an Application Module or IPE Module with only the CCR application.
For modules that have only the Meridian Link application, replace
references to CCR and Customer Controlled Routing with Meridian
Link. For modules with both applications, add references to Meridian
Link.
Example:
maint> rstdata

When ready, enter 'y' to continue, or 'n' to quit: [y,n] y
The restore will not succeed with an application running.
