backup command

The backup command lets you perform full or incremental backups on your system.

Synopsis

backup -p|c|h -nnfslocation [-aarchivetitle] [-lfilelist] [-ddays] [-Ddirectory][-Ppriority]

Description

The backup command does a full backup or a partial backup. The full backup backs up all files on the system. The incremental backup backs up a specific directory, a list of files, or specify number of days to look for changes.

You must stop the voice system before starting the full backup. Avaya recommends stopping the voice system before starting an incremental backup. The voice system is restarted when the backup has completed (if the voice system was stopped). A full backup must be run before an incremental backup can be run.

This utility can be run in the following ways:
