Back up your system data:
After you change system settings
■
Immediately before you change any system hardware or software
■
When you back up your system data, you can choose to include or not
include the voice mail messages for all system users.
Perform a database Restore operation only when you need to recover lost
data. You can only restore from a backup file that you created from the
same version of the software that you are using or from a previous
version.
When you restore your system data, you can choose to restore or not
restore the voice mail messages for all system users.
Voice mail is included in a backup of your system data only if you specify
that you want it included. If voice mail was not included when the system
data was backed up, you cannot specify that you want to restore voice
mail during a restore operation.
You can migrate configuration data stored with an older software version
to a newer software version. You may need to do this if you have installed
a new version of the software but you want to use older configuration
data. During normal operation, you should not need to use the Convert
Database function.
Purging the database removes existing user and device data you have
added to the system, restores factory defaults, and causes an automatic
reboot.
The Purge Database feature does not affect your IP connectivity to the
NBX NetSet utility. After a database purge, the system continues to use
the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and host name that you
have assigned.
If you want to purge Call Detail Reports (CDR) data, as well as user and
device data, you can perform these functions at the same time.
