Thanks for everyone's responses. Very helpful and good to know. On another note, can one post jobs here?

We have a number of legacy BCM400s and BCM450s. (Actually a couple of MICS units too!). I'm hearing it's getting harder and harder to find licenses for these things. Is this something everyone is seeing? Should I start freakin'? Last I checked, there didn't seem to be any issue...

I need a little "grounding" here. We are a multi-site, multi-server organization. We're running Exchange 2003 (non-enterprise). The priv.edb at one of our sites became corrupt (about 20gb). We decided to do a dial tone recovery. When we brought the server up with the blank database, we...

I appreciate the advise. Given that its 50GB or more, the time to repair it may be 8 or more hours. What if I discover that it is corrupt during business hours? Wouldn't it be better to wait until later that day or some non-business time to do the repair?

We recently had a situation where our our priv.edb became corrupt. It was well over 50GB. So, running a consistency check etc took a long long time. We use NTBACKUP to do hot backups and it turns out that the backup was inconsistent too. Not good. Not sure why we didn't do a dial tone but...

Thanks everyone. This is good info. I'm going to go with a partial PRI. Even though DID trunks are more expensive, they can typically be installed in less than 2 weeks. Sometimes even one. I have to wait about 3 to 4 weeks for my PRI's and these guys are eager to pass out there cards.

Will a BCM50 support DID trunks? I have heard that it will not. The only way to get DID numbers if via T1 or PRI. It will handle POTS lines but not DID. Help.

Mucho gracias.

When forwarding a .vbk file to someone who does not have the desktop client, I understood that the file should be converted to .wav. Ours did it for a while but quit. Any suggestions? BCM 400 running 3.6

Can do? How? Thanks.

senk1s, you read my mind. I didn't ask my question well but you hit exactly what I want to do, send a target line to an information box. Or, could I setup a normal VM and give it a custom class of service so there is no storage?

Is there a way that I can setup an information only voicemail box? E.g. someone dials and all they hear is an outgoing message without the ability to lease a message?

Can I receive faxes to voicemail on the 150? I know you can route to a fax extension.

Does the BCM have find-me, follow-me type features?

Is there any way to have a voicemail show up in your main outlook inbox so you don't have to go to a seperate inbox to retrieve your voicemails? Also, this would give us notifications on our blackberries that we have voicemail.
