Backing Up the Feature Files and Voice Mail Database
It is recommended that you back up the changed feature files in your Voice Mail System. You
should also back up your Voice Mail Database, messages, and any fax documents (stored on the
system), if you do not have a recent backup of these items.
Backups must be directed to a valid sub-directory (for example:
c:\test
). If backing up to a high
density external media that is on the network, such as a super disk or tape, make sure that the corre-
sponding drive is shared with the proper permissions. Again, you must make the backup to a valid
sub-directory on the external media.
To perform a back up:
1.
From the
Voice Mail Main Menu
:
Click
Tools
➱
Local Backup
to display the
Backup
window.
2.
Click to select the check box for every item in your Voice Mail System. At a minimum, you
must select the
Feature Files
.
3.
In the Save To box:
●
If you are backing up to a hard drive on the network or a high density external media, you
must enter the exact Universal Naming Convention (UNC) designation (for example,
\\networkservername\c:\test
).
●
Click
OK
on the
Backup
window.
When the backup is finished, you see a Voice Mail Warning confirmation dialog box
stating that the operation was completed successfully.
4.
Click
OK
on the Voice Mail Warning confirmation dialog box.
You return to the Voice Mail Main Menu.
