Got a couple of hopefully simple questions. I need to backup an Audix box...need to know what type of tapes this thing takes and can it be automated to backup nightly...complete backups so that if it dumps I can restore.
Thanks Joe

Joe..
Which audix to you have, which tape drive does it have...It's possible to do a total backup, nightly!

Yea we need more info. The Intuity audix came in 4 flavors. Map 5, Map 40, and MAP 100. There is also the new LX model. There is also the old Definity Audix, but you said Intuity.

Call Imation to confirm what tape that is. Sounds like a Travan TR-3, but they made several. Regardless, its an old one. My oldset Audix uses TR-4's. www.imation.com Hope you got a good backup.

I have no backups...no one has been maintaining this thing and I've taken over for the guy who used to handle this box but I have not used Audix in about 6 yrs. What I need is a way of automating backups so that if the HD crashes I can recover. What is the best way to do a full backup of the system?

Log in as SA. From the audix main menu, select customer/services administration, then select backup, select backup and then enter.

It should. Put a new tape in and leave it over night. In the am you should see that it ran a backup in the admin log. 'disp admin'.
Under customer/services administration there is 'set backup time' Probably set to 3:05 or something...
