14.2 Restore to a new System
It is possible to back-up a working system, and restore the configuration to another target system,
with the intent of quickly provisioning a new target system.
However as backup will duplicate the current system, this is only useful in the case where original
system failed and is being replaced.
Restore has not been designed to provision new systems.
The amount work necessary to change a restored new system to operation is equivalent to starting
from scratch.
If using restores to provision a new system:

License
The license is going to be invalid on a new system. Thus user must update the system with
correct license after the restore from the backup.

IP Settings
IP settings are going to be duplicated and most likely invalid if the original system is still
functioning. Thus user must go into the IP Settings section and update the local IP settings.

VLAN
VLAN IP settings are going to be duplicated and most likely invalid if the original system is still
functioning. Thus user must go into the VLAN Settings section and update to new values.

Megaco/SIP/H323
All IP settings will most likely have to change.

TDM Spans
Target system must have identical T1/E1 spans installed as the source system. If TDM
installation is not identical there could be port mismatches or configuration errors, which will
cause the system to fail.
If provisioning from backing is the goal then user would have to edit the backup files manually to
update above settings before restoring to a target system.
This is not recommended and requires expert level understanding of the backup files and manual
configuration files. Which defeats the purpose of the WebGUI.
NOTE
Sangoma has a product roadmap plan for mass system provisioning.
