I am being forced to replace the hard drive in our Meridian Mail Option 11 switch. I purchased the exact replacement hard drive and now need to know how to restore the information from the tape drive. If anyone can give me detailed instructions in this procedure I would sure appreciate it. Thanks.

do a full backup, put the backup tape in, power down. install the new hd, power up, you will see a restore menu..
or boot off of the install tape, enter the keycodes, fill out a few pages of information and then restore from a partial backup.. both ways are menu driven and require very little imput.. 15 minutes plus the time it takes for the tape to run.. remove the tape and boot into service
