This procedure creates an alternate boot device. This procedure is 
required only for Enterprise 3000 or Enterprise 3500 platforms configured 
as  mirrored systems. 

For a description of the procedure used to create the alternate boot 
device, see “Creating an Alternate Boot Device for Mirrored Systems” in 
Chapter 2 of  “CentreVu Call Management System R3V8 Software 
Installation and Setup” (585-210-941).

This procedure uses the maintenance backup tape (

),  which 

was created on the original server, to migrate administration data onto 
the new HA server.

Since the immediate objective is to bring  the new HA server to an 
operational state as quickly as possible, CMS Historical data is not 
migrated onto the new HA server until later in the upgrade process.

Caution! 
Do not use the Full Maintenance backup tape created in 

 for this migration.

For all versions of CMS Release 3, the system administration data is 
migrated via the 

R3 Migrate Data

 window.

Attempting to migrate system administration data more than once may 
cause catastrophic errors from which recovery is difficult. Before a re-
migration of system administration data can be performed,  CMS must be  
turned off and a second setup of the CMS software must be performed.

data into the tape drive on the new HA server.
