Status Monitoring
This chapter provides the information needed to:
• Audit overall system performance
• Monitor component functionality
• Monitor phone line events
• Report system statistics
Although most interaction with the system is through GUI tools like PeriView or MPS
Developer, command line entries are needed to issue some status and call monitoring
commands. This section also describes these operations. For specifics concerning
interaction with the system as a whole, see Command Line Interaction on page 47..
The Alarm Viewer
The system software processes of the Avaya Media Processing Server Series generate
text alarm messages that indicate their status or alert users to possible problems. Each
component in the network stores its alarms in its default Alarm Log File. This allows:
• viewing of alarms on any component as the system generates them (live alarms),
and
• viewing of the alarm log file of any component.
The following steps explain how to use the Alarm Viewer tool to monitor alarms.
How to ...View Alarms
1. Start PeriView.
Before launching the Alarm Viewer, use the Alarm Filter to determine which alarms
to view.
2. Start the Alarm Filter.
a. <LEFT> click on the Alarm Filter icon.
Define the alarms that actually display in the Alarm Viewer by setting the filtering
properties. Alternatively, load a previously saved viewer configuration file (contains
filter definitions). See the PeriView Reference Manual for a complete description of
the Alarm Filter.
