Hey all. I’m currently running an Asterisk 1.2.10 box with FreePBX 2.1.3, and I’ve been running weekly backups for it for quite some time. Recently I decided to build a replacement server using 1.4.13 and FreePBX 2.4.0, and would like to transfer all of my system recordings, voicemails, and general configuration over to the new server.
I’ve tried using Backup and Restore to do this but I can’t get it to work–it either wants to replace ALL of my system files (bumping my FreePBX back to 2.1.3) or it won’t replace anything. (For example, if I try to restore “system recordings,” nothing happens. Same with voicemails.)
Is there any simple way to do this? And if there is not, could anyone point me in the right direction for a manual way of transferring all voicemails and system recordings to the new system? I really can’t afford to lose anything in the transition.
Thanks for your time.
