Backing Up the System to the Port Card

Following PARTNER Messaging programming, you can back up programmed configuration data and a subset of the Automated Attendant Main Menu prompts and Submenu prompts onto the Port Card. The backed up information may be used to perform a system restore if the system fails and must be replaced or if data becomes corrupted.

If you need your entire system backed up and restored, use the PC-based system administration software. See the PARTNER Messaging Release 7.0 System Administration guide for more information.


Note:
  • PARTNER Messaging must be in an idle state in order for the backup to begin.
  • Prior to starting the backup process, the system will busy-out the messaging ports.
  • During the backup process, the system does not answer calls.
  • Backing up the Port Card can take up to 20 minutes.
  • Wait for a confirmation message or error message before hanging up.
