Polycom 7000 manual To restore from a backup file on the cluster

System Management and Maintenance

7To restore now, make sure you meet the criteria in the first two steps of the next procedure, and click Now.

The Confirm Restore dialog appears.

8Read the warning, make sure that you want to continue, select which data you want to restore, and click OK.

Caution: Restoring config-only backups

Restoring feature and system configuration, but not network configuration (or vice versa) will result in invalid primary or backup cluster assignments for some territories. After the restore operation is complete, go to Network > Site Topology > Territories and assign primary and backup clusters to the affected territories.

After a short delay, a dialog informs you that the system is going to be restored and you’ll be logged out.

9Click OK.

The system logs you out and the server reboots (typically, this takes about five minutes). After it comes back up, in a two-server cluster, the second server syncs to it, thus being restored to the same state. Depending on the configuration changes being applied, it may reboot so the changes can take effect.

When done, both servers’ LCDs display DMA Clustered.

10Log back in as a local admin user and:

a In a two-server cluster, verify on the Dashboard that both servers are up and the private network connection is operating properly.

b Go to Maintenance > Software Upgrade and check the Operation History table.

c If the system was integrated with Active Directory, go to Admin > Integrations > Microsoft Active Directory and re-enable the integration.

To restore from a backup file on the cluster

1If this is a two-server cluster, make sure that both servers are running and clustered. Make sure that there are no calls on the system, and that all MCUs are out of service. See MCU Procedures.

2If this cluster is part of a supercluster, remove it from the supercluster. See Supercluster Procedures.

3Go to Maintenance > Backup and Restore.

4Select the backup file from which you want to restore.

5In the Actions list, click Restore Selected. The Confirm Restore dialog appears.

6Read the warning, make sure that you want to continue, select which data you want to restore, and click OK.
