[cisco-voip] CallManager Publisher - Out of Disk Space

The backup files should be kept off the CCM server
ideally, because if it were to really crash you may
not be able to recover the BARS backup files to
restore from. This is why BARS gives you a big warning
when you point to local drives as storage destination.


If you are rebuilding, first copy the files off to
another server, thumb drive, whatever so you have them
someplace safe. 

I know folks who share the backup folder on CCM and
then have a process on another server that copies the
files over to it. I'm not sure why they don't just
make the destination a network mapped drive versus
copying it.
