Restoring a Backup
If required, you can restore your phone system from a backup of the base unit. Messages, contacts, and other settings that
have been made since the backup will be lost when you restore from the backup. Because the base unit will be restarted as
part of restoration, phone calls cannot be answered during the process.
You can also restore a backup of one base unit onto another base unit, which may be necessary if you are replacing a base
unit and need to transfer a configuration from the old one to the new one. When restoring a backup onto a base unit other
than the one from which the backup was made, all passwords will have to be reset. In particular, the base unit password and
extension number passwords will be reset to their default values. The e-mail server password must be re-entered.
To restore a backup of the base unit using Administrator, do the following.
1 Click the Base Unit button.
2 In the Tasks pane, under Backup, click Restore Backup.
3 In the Restore Backup dialog box, select the location of the backup that you want to restore.
4 Select a backup to restore.
Note: Usually, you'll want to restore the latest backup copy.
5 Specify what happens to voicemail when the backup is restored.
Event Logs on the Base Unit
The event log details errors, warnings, and information about activity on the base unit. For example, you can see when an
internal error occurred or when a restore or upgrade action was completed. You can also see when an employee attempted
to log on with an incorrect password and other such events.
Some events are monitored in other parts of the program, as well as in the event log. For example, space allocated to
voicemail is reported under Storage Space Use on the Base Unit page.
To view the event log using Administrator, do the following.
1 Click the Base Unit button.
