Command History

Cisco UMG Version	Modification
1.0	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Before you start a backup, we recommend that you save the current running configuration by using the write command first.

Backup and restore procedures require that you halt messaging activity before the procedures begin. The offline command terminates all message forwarding. Consider scheduling this procedure when call traffic is lightest.

The offline command does not start the backup or restore procedure. Use the backup and restore commands to initiate those procedures.

This command blocks any incoming messages. All outstanding messages are stored. They will be processed when the system goes online again.

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the offline command:

umg-1# enable

umg-1# offline

!!!WARNING!!!: If you are going offline to do a backup, it is recommended that you save 
the current running configuration using the `write' command, prior to going to the offline 
state. Putting the system offline will terminate all end user sessions. Are you sure you 
want to go offline[n]? : y

umg-1(offline)# continue
