Restoring BCM50 system data
You can restore BCM50 configuration and application data using the BCM50 Element Manager.
The restore software determines compatibility with the backup archive. Incompatible backups
cannot be restored at all. Compatible backups may have incompatible sub-components which will
be automatically excluded from a Restore operation. This situation can occur if your BCM50
software is upgraded and a component changes the data that it includes in the backup. New
backups should be made after any change to your BCM50 software to avoid this situation.
However, it may be possible to recover data for components that have not changed from backups
made prior to your software upgrade.
Restore operations are available on demand only; they cannot be scheduled.
You can retrieve the most recent backup file that you want to use for the restore operation from the
BCM50 or from an external storage location. Nortel recommends that you always use the same
storage location when you perform a restore operation. This practice will avoid potential
mismatches in the backup archives. For information about storage locations, see “Backup
destinations” on page 274.
When you restore data, the following details are available to you:
• the size of the backup file
• the backup date
• the backup version
Restore options
