Backup and restore data

All data is stored on the Call Server. Element Manager accesses the data for
the elements being maintained. Element Manager does not store data.
There is no Element Manager-specific data that needs to be backed up. All
data is retrieved from the Call Server and elements.
The c:/u/db/node directory is populated on the Call Server when the node
configuration is saved. The BOOTP.TAB and CONFIG.INI files are saved in
this directory as c:/u/db/node/nodexxxx.btp and c:/u/db/node/nodexxxx.cfg
where xxxx is the node ID:
• nodexxxx.btp is the BOOTP.TAB file
• nodexxxx.cfg is the CONFIG.INI.
If a node is removed, the associated files are also removed. For every node
that is created, a nodeyyyy.btp and nodeyyyy.cfg file are created in the
C:/u/db/node directory.

Backup

The Backup command invokes the Equipment Data Dump (EDD) operation
on the Call Server to back up all Call Server data. Within Element Manager,
the Call Server Backup function invokes a data dump and writes the Call
Server data to the primary and internal backup drives.
The backup includes all Call Server data as well as the BOOTP.TAB and
CONFIG.INI files for each node configured in the system. These files are
stored on the Call Server for the IP Telephony nodes configured in the
system.
This Backup function can also be performed on the Call Server by entering
the EDD CLI command using LD 43.
WARNING
Do not manually edit or delete the node files. Manually
editing or deleting these files can cause corruption of
Element Manager.
