Connecting to the standby media server
If you are on site, connect to the services port on the back of the standby media server.
If you are off site, log on to the standby media server with the actual IP address of the media
server.
Backing up files on the standby media server
To back up the system configuration files on the standby media server:
1. Under Data Backup/Restore, select Backup Now.
2. Select the data sets, including Avaya Call Processing (ACP) translations, and the backup
method.
!
Important:
Important: Do not select Full Backup or Save ACP translations prior to backup because
you cannot save translations on a standby media server.
3. Click Start Backup to start the back up process. Wait until the backup is complete.
Releasing alarm suppression (optional)
If you complete the upgrade well before the time set when you suppressed alarming, you might
want to release alarm suppression manually rather than wait for the system to release alarm
suppression.
To release alarm suppression:
1. Access the command line interface of the server with an SSH client like PuTTY and an IP
address of 192.11.13.6.
2. Log in as craft or dadmin.
3. Type almsuppress -n and press Enter to release alarm suppression.
4. Log off.
