<hr />
<div>AllStarLink has a built-in backup feature that is often overlooked. Backups are easy to create and are stored on our [http://backup.allstarlink.org Backup server]. <br />
<br />
=Backup Settings=<br />
To enable backups you'll need to set up the /etc/astrerisk/savenode.conf file as shown. Replace the node number and password with any one of the node's info on your server. The backup filename will be the chosen node number. <br />
<br />
Sample: savenode.conf<br />
<pre><br />
NODE=1999 ; replace with your node numner<br />
PASSWORD=123456 ; replace with your password<br />
ENABLE=1<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
=Backup=<br />
To create a backup type:<br />
<code>*CLI> savenode.sh</code> All nodes on your server will be backed up.<br />
<br />
=Restore=<br />
<br />
* Point your browser at [[http://backup.allstarlink.org Backup server]] and enter your node number and it's password.<br />
* You will see your last four backups in tgz format. Click the one you want to download it. <br />
* With your favorite file transfer program upload the file to your user home directory. <br />
* Then <code>*CLI> tar -xzvf ''fliename''.tgz; cd etc/asterisk</code> and <code>cp</code> all or some of the files to the /etc/asterisk directory. <br />
