Procedure 6-8.3: Restore NE database via FTP
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Overview
Use this procedure to restore the NE database via FTP.
CAUTION
Service disruption hazard
Restoring the network element database can be service-affecting.
If provisioning changes were made after the last backup files
were created, examine the Security Log and use the appropriate
WaveStar
®
CIT commands to manually apply the recent
provisioning changes to the just-restored database.
Procedure
Complete the following steps to restore the NE database via FTP.
............................................................................................................................................................

From the System View menu, select
Configuration

→
Remote Restore
.
Important! The restore feature only works if the TID, the
software release and the equipment that populated the NE slots
has not changed since the last backup. Additional equipment is
allowed. However, if any service-related parameters (for example,
cross-connections) have been changed since the last backup file
was created, those changes will be lost and service may be
affected. These changes must be reentered. If the TID or the
software release has changed or if different circuit pack types
have been installed since the backup was performed, then the
restore will not work.
