7. Wait until the most recent archive interval has completed. Verify that the interval has
been archived on the Secondary CMS server by doing the following:
Using Maintenance: Archiving Status, run the report for interval archiving for all
ACDs. Verify from the report that the interval archive for the interval ending at time
B has run.
8. At Time B‘ ( see graphic), perform an incremental historical backup of all ACDs on
the Secondary CMS server.
9. Restore the historical data of specific start/stop and dates/times of all ACDs to the
Primary CMS server. Use the time
at the beginning of the interval during which the
interruption occurred on the Primary CMS server (for e.g., if the interval is 30
minutes long and occurs on the hour, and the link went down at 5:13,
enter 5:00,
not 5:13
as the start time.) Also enter the stop time for the end of the interval during
which the interruption occurred (continuing with our example, if the link went down at
5:13 and came back up at 5:19, enter 5:29 as the stop time).
Note:
The correct format used when defining start/stop dates to restore historical
data is:
mm/dd/yy
