If a system problem or failure occurs, backups can be invaluable in returning the system to an operational state. You are likely to restore backups when directed to do so by an alarm repair action.Depending on the severity of the situation, messaging software might have to be reinstalled before you can restore any backups.
The messaging information stored on an ftp server or on an email server during the data backups is used to restore the system to an operational state.
Only perform a restore if a system problem or failure occurs. If you are not sure if it is necessary to perform a restore, contact your remote support center.
