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

Automatic Backup

Automatic Backup
To preserve the most recent copy of your customized system data, you can
program the system to automatically backup programming information onto
the translation memory card. Automatic backups may be set for daily or
weekly operation. If automatic backup is activated, the time may be set for
daily backup (factory setting is 2:00 am) or the time and day maybe set for
weekly backup (factory setting is 2:00 am Sunday).
The system places the automatic backup into one of two designated files:
AUTO.BACK1 and AUTO.BACK2 The system places the backup in whichever file
is empty. If both files are empty, the system places the backup in AUTO.BACK1.
If both files already contain backups, the system selects the older of the two
files and overwrites it. The system performs this file "toggle" each time it
performs an automatic backup.
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).
If any type of programming is taking place at an extension during the
automatic backup procedure, the backup is canceled. The system does not
re-attempt the backup.
If an automatic backup fails for any reason (including a system-busy
condition), all of the programmed alarm buttons on system operator consoles
light and the information is recorded in both the permanent error log and the
last 10 error logs.
