System outages

As the system manager, you deal directly with only some of the first two 
alarm types. Other alarm types require contacting your MeetingPlace support 
representative.

It is recommended that you check the Alarm Table weekly. You can save the 
information from the Alarm Table in a file for future reference, and then clear 
the alarms in the table. If the alarms are not cleared, the table overflows and 
you cannot view new alarm entries.

Report immediately any alarm condition that you do not 

understand to your MeetingPlace support representative.

The following table describes various alarms you might see.

System managers can allow attendants to view alarms but not clear 

them. For more information on configuring this function, see 

A logon error alarm that means a user tried 
unsuccessfully to log on more than the number of 
attempts specified in the Usage Parameters.

The Alarm Table reports the last user who 
unsuccessfully attempted logon since you last 
cleared the alarm. 

(For information on clearing alarms, see 

A failure alarm that appears when a T1 line is 
down, such as during a power failure. Call your 
telephony service provider for reactivation.

IP failure alarm

Server-related IP failures can cause an alarm or 
generate a log. If you experience a server-related IP 
failure, contact your MeetingPlace support 
representative.

If the IP Gateway fails, see the “Troubleshooting” 
section of your MeetingPlace IP Gateway System 
Manager’s Guide. For more information, contact 
your support representative.

A minor alarm that is posted when, during a system 
restart, the system detects that the internal disk-to-
disk database backup is disabled. The disk-to-disk 
database backup is disabled by several maintenance 
procedures, notably any software upgrade.

To prevent this alarm condition, system managers 
can run the “save” command, making the upgrade 
permanent.
