Appendix B: Restoring Files
Last Updated: October 5, 2011
After the backup files are created, you can restore them when needed. Restoring is done in offline mode. Active calls, IMAP, and VoiceView sessions are terminated, and no new calls are accepted (auto attendant calls are permitted). You should consider doing the restore when telephone subscribers are least likely to be on the telephone.
Use the show backup server command to locate the backup ID of the file to restore.
For more detailed information about restoring files, see Cisco Unity Express Voice-Mail and Auto-Attendant CLI Administrator Guide for 3.0 and Later Versions and the GUI online help.
