Backup Programming—Automatic (#123)
Description
The backup of system and telephone programming is optional, but recommended.
This System Programming procedure determines whether the automatic backup
of all programming (except the system date, day, and time) occurs or not. The
default setting is Not Active. When Backup Programming—Automatic is set to
Active, the information is backed up at 2:00 a.m. on the first day of each month
(determined by the system date and time settings) to a Backup/Restore PC Card.
NOTE:
ACS Release 3.0 includes a PARTNER Remote Access PC Card, which
allows the user to administer the system remotely
1
and perform backup and
restore functions. The PARTNER Remote Access PC Card is a PCMCIA
card that can also be used to upgrade previous versions of PARTNER ACS
to Release 3.0.
If Backup Programming—Automatic is Active and an automatic backup fails, a
Backup-Failure Alarm message appears (instead of the system date and time) on
the top line of the telephone display at idle extensions 10 and 11. The message
will be one of the following:
■ Backup Failed:Write Prot
■ Backup Failed:Check Card
■ Backup Failed:SystemBusy
■ Backup Failed:InsertCard
See Chapter 6, ‘‘Troubleshooting’’ for an explanation of these messages and
suggested corrective actions, and for the procedure for clearing the
Backup-Failure Alarm message.

■ Verify that the System Date (#101), System Day (#102), and System
Time (#103) are set correctly, so that the automatic backup occurs at the
correct time. These settings are not backed up.
■ You can use Backup Programming—Manual (#124) in place of or to
supplement the automatic backups, if desired.
■ Once the system and telephone programming settings have been backed
up to a PC Card, you can use the Restore Programming (#125)
procedure to restore the settings if they become corrupted. You can also
use Restore Programming (#125) to verify the date on a backup file.
