Avaya S8100 User Manual

Administer no-license/emergency numbers

You need to set the product ID for each application. Get the product ID for each application from the 
registration group. The steps are:

Telnet to the S8100 from the laptop.

Go to the "bash" shell from LAC by typing "bash".

Use productid command to set the product ids on the S8100. There are two components – 
Communication Manager (MultiVantage) and AUDIX. Each component has a unique ID given by 
the services group at the time of registration.

Use “productid multivantage-product-id 1xxxxxxxxx” to configure the Communication Manager 
ID.

Use “productid audix-product-id 2xxxxxxxxx” to configure AUDIX ID.

S8100 runs multiple applications on the platform. Every application reports problems to GAM (Global 
Alarming Module) which in turn calls out through the modem to the alarm-destination number. This is 
different from the INADS port on other Communication Manager servers, and needs to be configured 
using the "oss" bash command. The steps are as follows:

Telnet to S8100 from the laptop.

Go to the "bash" shell from LAC by typing "bash".

Use the “oss” command to set the alarm callout destination. The format is 
oss 18005353573 3 3. (The 1

st

 parameter is the phone number of the alarm callout destination, the 

2

nd

 parameter is the number of retries, and the 3

rd

 parameter is the retry count).

Type alarmorig on to turn on alarm origination.

Type reboot immediate to have the changes take effect.

Alarming will fail if 

 is not performed.

Without a valid license installed or a mismatched license:

The system generates a major alarm.

Depending upon the nature of the error, a countdown timer starts, but call processing continues 
unchanged.

If the countdown timer expires, the switch runs in Administration Mode only, and call-processing 
capability is limited to incoming and outgoing calls only to preadministered numbers.
