Retain Old Backups

– used to set the number of old full backups to retain. The default is zero to conserve

disk space on the PC, but you may want to maintain at least two complete backups.

13.2 How to Restore Data

You must restore the data while the Allworx

server is in Safe Mode. When in Safe Mode, the server will

always use the factory default IP address (192.168.2.254) with DHCP enabled. In order to avoid IP address

conflicts on the network, it is recommended that all the LAN connections be unplugged and to plug in only the

OfficeSafe PC used for configuring the restore.

Restores are initiated from the Allworx

server in Safe Mode and require the PC providing the backup to be

connected to the server’s LAN and running the OfficeSafe application.

Step to Restore:

1. From the OfficeSafe Application, a restore will use the most recent backup by default. Select Restore

Option under Restore to select the backup to restore. If Auto Select is enabled (the Default setting), then

the most resent backup will be used. Disable Auto Select and click on the drop-down list to select any

available backup.
