Chapter 5
Integrating Cisco CallManager with Voice Mail Systems Using SMDI
Verifying and Troubleshooting the SMDI Connection
Step 1
From the main menu, choose
Diagnostics
.
Step 2
Choose
Validate SMDI configuration
.
A window displays with the results of the diagnosis, indicating any errors or
warnings.
Suspending SMDI Port Activity
If you are using the chained configuration and want to temporarily remove one of
the VG248 devices or upgrade software on it, you should suspend activity on the
SMDI ports before shutting down or restarting the VG248.
By suspending activity, the VG248 waits for the port to become idle, then it
temporarily removes the port from Cisco CallManager and suspends the port,
preventing any activity on it. Once all the ports have been suspended, traffic from
Aysnc 1 is also suspended on the device. SMDI traffic from Async 2 from the
previous VG248 device in the chain queues up while this device is suspended.
Suspending the device does not affect whether ports are enabled or not; if they
were enabled before being suspended, they are enabled after being resumed.
Before You Begin
If after following this procedure, the device is not suspended immediately, it is
likely that some of the ports still have active calls or there are pending MWI
commands on the Cisco CallManager system. You can check individual ports by
pressing Escape to exit the “Suspending...” message and choosing
Display > Port
Status
from the main menu.
Step 1
From the main menu, choose
Configure
.
Step 2
Choose
Suspend
.
A message appears indicating that the device is being suspended.
Step 3
Shut down, restart, or upgrade software on the VG248, as needed. See
“Upgrading
Software Images” section on page 6-13
for details.
