[cisco-voip] Unity connection system error

[Ryan Ratliff]

You need to boot off of the system recovery disk and run a manual file system check.  Cross your fingers, and if you can get the system back up you need to get a backup and plan to reinstall and restore.

If you don't have the recovery disk you can download it from cisco.com (get the latest one in either UC or CUCM downloads, it's the same disk for both), it's a ~600Mb iso IIRC.

With any of these appliance servers it is vital that they are on a UPS, particularly if the system doesn't have a battery backed-up write cache.
