This section discusses the Alarm Table and how to use it. 
About the Alarm Table 
In addition to reporting abnormal events, the Alarm Table also shows you 
how many times the alarm condition occurred, the date of its first and last 
occurrences, the server number where the alarm occurred, and a brief 
description of the alarm condition. 
When an alarm occurs, MeetingPlace assigns it an alarm code identifying the 
type of alarm. If you wish to be notified in case of an alarm, configure 
MeetingPlace to outdial to a specific destination. 
When to Check the Alarm Table 
 
 
Note: Report immediately any alarm condition that you do not 
understand to your MeetingPlace support representative. 
 
Tip: It is recommended that you check the Alarm Table 
weekly. You can save the information from the Alarm Table in 
a file so that you have it for future reference, and then clear the 
alarms in the table. If the alarms in the table are not cleared, 
the table overflows and you cannot view new alarm entries. 
System managers may allow attendants to view alarms (but not 
clear them). For more information on configuring this 
functionality, see Configuring Help Desk Privileges for 
Attendants
 in Chapter 2. 
 Alarm Types 
The Alarm Table reports five types of alarms:
 
 
Repeated unsuccessful attempts to log in (locked profile) 
 
Trunk malfunction (T1 failure) 
 
Gateway malfunction (IP failure) 
 
Hardware or software failures 
 
System outages 
As the system manager, you deal directly with only some of the alarm types. 
Other alarm types require contacting your MeetingPlace support 
representative.
