Saving Translations
NOTE:
An alternate method of saving (backing up) and restoring translations is available for
S8100 Media Server with a CMC1. See
Server only)
Communication Manager retains all translation data in memory while the system is operating. If it goes
down, you lose all this translation data. You must save in-memory translation data to the memory card
(flash ROM), disk, or tape. Saving translation data to memory card or tape is the same as backing up your
system.
NOTE:
Save translations on a daily basis. You may want to save translations after business hours
to prevent dial tone delays or during slow business hours if your business is open 24 hours.
The save translation command writes two time-stamped identical copies of the translation data to the
selected memory card, disk, or tape. The save writes one complete copy first, then writes the second copy
in a different area of the device — both with the same time-stamp. Failure during a save, including a
system crash, usually affects only one copy. The affected copy is marked "bad" and should not be used
for backup.
You can set save translation to be completed automatically as part of regularly scheduled maintenance or
manually, as needed. For more information about saving translations automatically, see the maintenance
book for your system.
Tip:
To determine if your system saves translations automatically, type display
system-parameters maintenance to see if you have scheduled maintenance.
Translation copy protection assigns a number to a specific phone system and to the flash card or set of
flash cards that belong to that system. For Avaya Communication Manager on a DEFINITY® Server CSI
or Communication Manager on a DEFINITY® Server SI, this number is the same on both the translation
storage device (flash card) and the Flash PROM (Programmable Read Only Memory) of the processor
circuit pack. In a duplicated system, the Flash PROM of each processor circuit pack has a translation ID
and both ID's are stored on the memory card.
