standard security mode.
System Backup can only be performed by an administrator.
The System Backup procedure creates a single backup file that can be viewed or modified only by
developers.
A System Backup file from one system can be restored on another system.
To ensure file system consistency, do not perform any configuration changes as the system does not
suspended them during the backup procedure.
The following parameters, settings and files are backed up:
MCMS configuration files (/mcms/Cfg):

Rooms,
Profiles

CDR files are not included in the backup process and should be backed up manually by saving the
CDR files to a destination device.
