Restoring a snapshot file automatically

Last Updated : Apr 25, 2023 |

Before you begin

Create a system snapshot.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the EMS web interface with administrator credentials.
  2. On the Device menu, preform one of the following:
    • Click EMS for restoring a snapshot for the complete EMS server.

    • Click SBC for device specific snapshot restoration.

  3. In the navigation pane, click Backup/Restore.
  4. Using the drop-down menu in the content area, select the snapshot server that contains the snapshot file that you want to retrieve.

    The EMS server displays all snapshot files on the selected snapshot server in the content area.

  5. Select the snapshot file that you want to restore to the EMS or SBC by clicking the corresponding Restore option.

    The EMS server displays a warning pop-up window, asking for confirmation to proceed with the automatic restoration procedure.

  6. Click OK.

    The EMS or SBC goes offline and reconfigures the snapshot file.

    Note:

    After the system successfully restores a snapshot, in an HA configuration both Avaya SBC devices reboot. In a standalone configuration, the EMS and SBC single server reboots. The system takes several minutes to reboot after restoring a backup configuration.
