Restore Programming (#125) - Avaya PARTNER Advanced Communications System Installation And Use Manual

Restore Programming (#125)

Use this feature to reinstate your system and telephone programming (except the System Day,
System Date, and System Time) to the settings saved on a PC Card at the last system backup
(manual or automatic). You should restore the system settings if your system settings become
corrupted, if you make changes and decide you would rather use the former settings, or if you
replace your processor module and want to retain the system settings you had on the previous
processor module. A successful restore takes about five seconds.
When a restore completes successfully, the Restore Complete message appears for two
seconds at idle extensions 10 and 11. Then a System Reset—Programming Saved
(#728) occurs, disconnecting any calls in progress. You should warn users before
beginning a restore, or do the restore during nonbusiness hours.
Considerations
Make sure that you have saved the most recent system settings before you begin the Restore
procedure.
If the restore is not successful, the display shows Restore Failed or Restore Failed-
Try Again for two seconds. All calls in progress are disconnected, and all of the system and
telephone programming settings revert to the factory settings.
The configuration of the 1600 DSL module is not saved on the PC card; it is retained in the
flash memory of the 1600 DSL module. To restore this configuration, you must perform a cold-
start by using Restore Programming or System Reset—Programming Saved (#728).
Using Restore
To initiate a restore:
1. If you have a Backup/Restore PC Card installed, skip to Step 2. If you do not have a PC Card
installed, see "Using a PC Card" on page 10-2
Instructions that came with your PC Card.

2. Press
The top line of the display shows Sys Set Restore or System Settings Restore.
3. Choose the backup file you want to use for the restore:
1 MAN.mmddyy, where "mmddyy" represents the date of the manual backup on this card
2 AUTO.mmddyy, where "mmddyy" represents the date of the automatic backup on this
card.
If the date of the file (AUTO. mmddyy or MAN. mmddyy) indicates that this is
not the file you intended to use, see the instructions packaged with the PC
Upgrade card for how to install the Backup/Restore PC Card.
If the Backup/Restore PC Card is fresh from the factory, and no backups have
been recorded on it yet, the filenames are MAN . ****** and AUTO . ******,
respectively. You cannot use these files for a restore; they generate the error
message Empty File after you press
