Backup - AT&T MERLIN LEGEND Release 3.0 Programming Summary Manual

Backup

Backup
Use this procedure to make a copy of your customized system data. You
should create a backup at least three times during system installation (so that
programmed information is not lost), and once after each system upgrade,
service technician visit, or major system reconfiguration.
The Inspect feature (Inspct or [PgDn] ) is available to view the attributes of the
backup files on the memory card prior to initiating the backup procedure. The
attributes included on the Inspect screen are the filename, the time and date
of the file creation/update, the location of the system programming port, and
information about the system software release from which the backup was
made.
The list of backup files contains three manual backup filenames and two
automatic backup filenames. The default names of the manual backup files
are BACK1.*****, BACK2.*****, and BACK3.*****. When you select one of the
backup filenames, the system automatically replaces the stars in the filename
with the current month and day (mmdd). For example, BACK1.0116 would
appear if you selected BACK1.***** and performed the backup procedure on
January 16. You can rename any of the three default files during the backup
procedure. The automatic backup filenames are AUTO.BACK1 and AUTO.BACK2
You cannot change the names of these files.
If you enter a filename that currently exists, the message File already
exists appears. You must enter another filename.
While the backup is in progress, you cannot access system programming
functions, your Personal Directory, or alarm clock functions (any programmed
alarms are temporarily deactivated). You may terminate the backup
procedure at any point prior to receiving confirmation of a successful backup.
If any type of programming is taking place at another extension when you
begin the backup procedure, the backup is canceled and the number of the
first busy extension appears on the screen. Attempt the backup procedure
again when the busy extension becomes idle.
