Creating a Rescue Backup CD
This feature allows you to build an image of all the files on the hard drive of the
VoiceSupport Lx. The image can then be used to produce a bootable CD for the
purpose of catastrophic recovery. These files include:
■ Linux operating system
■ Voice Mail application
■ Web interface
■ Basic and added feature files
■ Configuration settings including any recorded messages
■ Saved voice and fax messages
In the event of a system failure such as a failed hard drive, the rescue CD can be
used to boot the VoiceSupport Lx and restore it to the most recent configuration.
To create a Rescue Backup CD:
1) Select VM Service from the Control Panel section of the main menu. Stop the
Voice Mail service and set the startup mode to Manual. This will prevent a
corrupted backup.
2) Select Rescue Backup from the Tools section of the main menu.
3) Click the New-Backup button. This will create a list of files to be backed up.
4) Click Refresh to review the file list. Note the number of CDs required at the end
of the list.
