Restore the Messaging System
Requests to have the MERLIN Messaging System perform a restore must be initiated
by the System Manager and can be originated via the terminal interface. When
you request a system restore, MERLIN Messaging reads data that was previously
stored on the PC Card during a successful backup, and writes it to the MERLIN
Messaging System hard disk.

Note:
|
- Before the MERLIN Messaging System performs a restore, the MERLIN
Messaging System module should be either a new module or a module that
has been reinitialized to factory default settings. Contact the Lucent
Technologies Helpline for more information.
- The MERLIN Messaging System must be in idle status for the restore
process to begin. If any voice messaging ports are in use (that is,
off hook), the restore request is rejected.
- MERLIN Messaging voice messaging services are not available while
a restore is in progress.
- If the restore process fails, the MERLIN Messaging System logs this
as a critical event.
- Once initiated, the restore process cannot be interrupted by the System
Manager.
- The system automatically restarts following a successful restore.
The current terminal session is dropped and cannot be reestablished
until the system has rebooted itself. You must reestablished a
remote or local terminal session to perform subsequent functions.

If you need your entire system backed up and restored, use the PC-based system administration software. See the MERLIN Messaging Release 2 System Administration Guide for more information.
