First OSS
Telephone
Number
The system calls this number to report alarms. This number must be
obtained from the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) or the
TSC, and can be INADS or Trouble Tracker, for example.
# and * are not allowed.
Abbrev Alarm
Report
Enter y to enable Abbreviated Alarm Reports for the First OSS. Default
is y.
Second OSS
Telephone
Number
The system calls this number to report alarms if the First OSS
Telephone Number does not respond. This number must be obtained
from the National Customer Support Center (NCSC) or the TSC, and
can be INADS or Trouble Tracker, for example.
# and * are not allowed.
Abbrev Alarm
Report
Enter y to enable Abbreviated Alarm Reports for the Second OSS.
Default is n.
Alarm
Origination to
OSS Numbers
Entry determines how alarms are reported. Default is neither.
both = Major and Minor alarms result in an automatic call to both
administered OSS telephone numbers.
first-only = Major and Minor alarms result in an automatic call to the
first administered OSS number.
neither = alarm origination does not occur, and reports are not sent to
either number.
second no-backup = Major and Minor alarms result in an automatic
call to the first administered OSS telephone number. If the call to the
First OSS Number fails four times, the switch calls the Second OSS
Number until a call to the First OSS Number is successful.
If Alarm Origination is deactivated, Cleared Alarm Notification and
Restart Notification deactivate, even though they may still be activate
in the administration.
Cleared Alarm
Notification
Enter y in the Alarm Origination field and y in Cleared Alarm
Notification to enable Cleared Alarm Notification. The system calls the
OSS and sends an alarm resolution message when all
previously-reported Major and Minor alarms are resolved. Default is n.
Restart
Notification
Enter y in the Alarm Origination field and y in Restart Notification to
enable Restart Notification. Enables the switch to originate calls to the
OSS and report any system restarts caused by switch problems.
Suspension
Threshold
Some problems cause alarms to be generated and resolved
repeatedly. To detect these problems, the switch suspends Cleared
Alarm Notification when it has reported the specified number of
Cleared Alarm notifications in a 24 hour period. A suspended Cleared
Alarm Notification reactivates with a successfully-completed “logoff”
command, a system reset, or when the threshold is changed. This field
is irrelevant if the Cleared Alarm Notification field or the Alarm
Origination field are n. (1–15)
