Migrating Data
To migrate data from one platform to another, use the NBX NetSet utility
to perform a backup operation on the source platform and then perform
a restore operation, using that backup file, on the target platform.
Perform the migration outside of regular business hours so that the
migration does not impact telephone users.
To migrate data:
1 Install the target system.
2 Install your license keys on the new system.
Note that you need new license keys for the new system. You cannot
load a license backup file from the old system nor can you use the license
keys from the old system. License keys are generated from each system's
unique system ID number.
3 Perform a backup operation on the old system (click System Maintenance
> System Backup).
4 Enable the Include NBX Voice Mail and Include NBX Licenses check boxes
if you want telephone users' voice mail messages and licenses to be
available on the new system.
5 Use the backup file you just created and perform a database Restore
operation on the new system (click System Maintenance > System
Restore).
You can migrate configuration data stored with an older software version
to a newer software version. You might need to do this if you install a
new version of the software but you want to use older configuration
data. During normal operation, you do not need to use this function.
From the System Restore window (click System Maintenance > System
Restore), select the source version from which you want to migrate the
data and click Restore Database.
