About Migration

UM8000 supports migration from previous products. This chapter
describes the steps required to migrate data from DOS, OS/2 and
Linux based voice messaging systems to the UM8000 Mail.
Migration of most existing data from OS/2 voice messaging system
to a new UM8000 system is possible. The data includes the system
configuration settings, subscriber accounts, groups, transaction
boxes, interview boxes, voice names and greetings, and messages.
NOTE
Customized prompts cannot be migrated.
On the UM8000 system, verify that the prompt set configuration is
identical to the prompt set configuration of the OS/2 based voice
mail system. Otherwise, language settings might not migrate
properly.

Backing Up Data Locally

After the backup is complete, compress the files in the proper
format to migrate to UM8000. This requires transferring a
compression utility to the OS/2 voice messaging system blade.

Compressing the OS/2 Backup Data

The following procedure uses CoSesssion to compress
the data, but FTP to transfer the compression utility if the
OS/2 FTP server is already configured.
To compress the OS/2 voice messaging system backup
data, perform the following procedure:
1. On the remote support computer, insert the UM8000
support disc into the disk drive.
2. Using the CoSession client, connect to the OS/2
voice messaging system.
3. Browse to the file PKOS2250.EXE on the support
disc and transfer it to the E:\
blade.
4. Open a command prompt window on the OS/2
system.
