Backup/Test/Restore Existing Vicidial System

Run this for a 1-server system or server with database on it: (this may take hours on large system)

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_backup.pl --debugX

Run this on dialer/Asterisk-only servers: (do not run this if you only have one server):

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_backup.pl --debugX --without-db --without-web

Test backup:

Create a new (any name) database on any mysql server, apply the backup data to it, and verify a new lead from Today is actually in there.

On ALL servers: (Database, web, telephony)

cd /usr/src/astguiclient

Download Vicidial trunk on ALL servers

svn checkout svn://svn.eflo.net:3690/agc_2-X/trunk

On ONLY database server:

Going into mysql and executing the upgrade sql file:

mysql
use asterisk
\. /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk/extras/upgrade_2.14.sql
quit

#REPORT THIS AD

On ALL servers: (Database, web, telephony)

cd /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk
perl ./install.pl

NOTES: If you have customized any scripts in the bin or agi folders,
then make sure you back them up before running the install.pl script.
This script will replace existing files in the astguiclient installation.

On one server only, update your phone codes data:

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_area_code_populate.pl --purge-table –debug

systemctl restart dahdi; systemctl disable asterisk
modprobe dahdi

cp /usr/src/asterisk/asterisk-13.29.2/contrib/init.d/rc.redhat.asterisk /etc/init.d/asterisk

I hope this helps
