[cisco-voip] Publisher Restore on Call Manager 7.1.5

[Ryan Ratliff]

DB replication will be a very good test but don't expect it to work unless the subs are up and reachable during the restore.

Now that I have my new pub hardware I will probably be mocking this up

What do you think is an acceptable way to test this out.. setup a
sample cluster, migrate pub node to new hardware.. then how to test?
Is just verifying that database replication synchs up OK afterwards
with the test subscribers enough? Other stuff we need to be concerned
with?
