More information
When someone powers up the system or inserts or resets an a nnou ncement circuit
pack, the system checks the circuit pack for announcements. If the system finds no
announcements on the circuit pack, and there are recorded announcements stored
in system memory, the system restores the announcements from system memory
to the announcement circuit pack.
!CAUTION:
The announcements that are automatically restored are the last
announcements saved to system memory. If multiple circuit packs are used,
system memory might not contain the announcement for the B or A circuit
pack.
The system automatically restores announcements to only one announcement
circuit pack. The system does not restore to announcement circuit packs that have
built-in memory.
Deleting and erasing announcements
You can delete recorded announcements from an announcement circuit pack that
does not have stored memory. When you dele te the a nnouncement from the circuit
pack, you do not delete the announcement from your system backup tape or disk.
You can also erase the announcements stored on an integrated announcement
circuit pack that has stored memory.
