Managing announcements
555-233-506446 Issue 5 October 2002
For example to save the announcements from the circuit pack at 01B18:
1. Type
save announcements from 01B18 and press RETURN.
NOTE:
If you have announcement circuit packs with and without built-in
memory, save the circuit pack without built-in memory.
If you have a duplicated system with an active processor and a stand-by processor,
you can save announcements from the announcement circuit pack to both
processors. Simply add system memory for both processors to the save
announcements command.
If the save announcements procedure fails on one of the processors, it continues
on the other processor, which results in inconsistent announcement data between
the two processors.
To verify that the save announcements command was successful:
1. Type
display integrated announcement boards and press RETURN.
The Integrated Announcement Boards screen appears.
This screen shows the date, time, and location of the announcement circuit pack
most recently saved. If the save announcement command failed or the save
translations were not run before rebooting, “N/A” appears in these fields.
Copying announcements
NOTE:
This task 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 copy recorded announcements between back-up disks and tapes when
you want to store your recorded announcements in more than one place.
