Saving announcements
NOTE:
This task is only applies if you are using a TN750-series announcement
circuit pack.
If you are using the TN2501AP (VAL) announcement circuit pack or VVAL
announcements, see ‘‘Moving announcements from the VAL circuit pack’’
on page 461.
If you are using the ISSPA announcements capability of the S8100 Media
Server, see ‘‘Backup via the Web interface (S8100 Media Server only)’’ on
page 58.
You can save and back-up announcements from an announcement circuit pack to
system memory. Your system memory is a tape, disk, or memory card, depending
on your system. Use this procedure primarily for announcement circuit packs
without built-in memory. VAL and VVAL announcements are backed up
internally to non-volatile flash memory.
!
CAUTION:
Announcements that are recorded on announcement circuit packs without
built-in memory are lost if they are not saved to system memory before
power is shut down or the circuit pack is reset or removed.
For extra security, you may also want to save announcements from announcement
circuit packs that have their own built-in memory to another announcement circuit
pack with built-in memory or to tape.
!
CAUTION:
Do not copy, save, or restore announcements from an announcement circuit
pack that has built-in memory to one without built-in memory because it may
corrupt the announcement data.
Instructions

pack:

This process can take up to 40 minutes. You cannot administer your system

circuit pack, specify the circuit pack address in your command.
