System Backup and Recovery Operations

This chapter provides an overview of the Polycom® Converged Management Application™ (CMA®) backup and recovery procedures.

The backup and recovery of a CMA system includes backup and recovery of the CMA system internal database and the backup of the CMA system configuration settings. It includes these topics:

•Backup Internal Databases and System Configuration

—Backup the CMA System Internal Databases

—Backup the CMA System Settings

•Restore Database and System Configuration

—Restore to Factory Default Image

—Restore from a Backup Archive

Backup Internal Databases and System Configuration

Users assigned the Administrator role have two backup options. They can:

•Generate backups of just the internal CMA database files (.bak format)

OR

•Create and download a system backup archive (.zip format), which includes both the internal database backup files and the system settings.

We recommend creating and downloading a system archive weekly. This archive makes system restoration much simpler.
