NDA-30080 Revision 1.0Page 87 Sentry Installation Guide Executive Override Configuration The Executive Override software is configured automatically during installation if you answer “yes” to the autoconfig prompt. You may also configure Executive Override manually by using the Add Function of the Application Configuration option on the APM System Administration menu. Executive Override provides an extremely flexible configuration mechanism that allows many combinations of features and services. A single executable file is provided to perform all Executive Override tasks. Configuration parameters are passed to the executable file to determine the functionality and databases used, resulting in a unique APM configuration for each Executive Override category. These configurations may share database files, use separate databases files, or use a combination of shared and separate files. Each APM configuration requires a unique MSF assignment to activate it. The following sections describe the configuration parameters and databases used by Executive Override, and then a configuration example is provided. For an example of an Executive Override Configuration, see Executive Override Configuration Sample on page 96. Note: This section contains information that is entered in the Executive Override con- figuration file. For specific instructions on what these parameters mean and how to make these entries, use the APM Operations Manual. Application CharacteristicsWhen manually adding Executive Override to the APM Application Configuration file, define the parameters as shown below. These parameters are defined automatically if you answered “yes” to the autoconfig prompt during installation. ParameterEntryDescription OAI Application Y(es) Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) Executive Override communicates with the NEAX2400 using OAI processes. CRT Application N(o) Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) Executive Override requires a terminal screen that is of the same type as the one used by the APM. Communication QueueN(o) Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) this non-OAI application needs an IPC queue to communicate with other processes.
Page 88NDA-30080 Revision 1.0 Executive Override Sentry Installation Guide Primary Configuration ParametersThese parameters are defined automatically if you answered “yes” to the autoconfig prompt during installation. On the APM Configuration Entry screen, make the entries indicated below for each Executive Override parameter. Entries for parameters marked by an asterisk (*) must be made exactly as shown. Other entries are examples and are site-dependent. Note: Use the instructions provided for this option in the APM Operations Manual. ParameterEntryDescription NameMonitor_notone The application name to be displayed in the APM menus. This name is displayed exactly as you enter it here, including case. The example here shows a monitor override with no warning tone. You will assign a separate name for each configuration. This value must be unique for each Executive Override configuration. Exec Filename*/oai/app/sentry/bin/ overrideIndicates the path name of the executable file. This value must be identical for each Executive Override configuration. Group* SENTRY Names the group to which Executive Override is associated. Response Mode*I(gnore) Indicates the action that the APM is to take with Executive Override should a member of the group terminate. Initialization BatchN(o) Indicates whether or not (Yes or No) Executive Override is to be initialized automatically when the OAI system is initialized. Termination Mode*Message Indicates how the APM is to notify Executive Override to terminate. Standard Output/dev/null Designates the file into which Executive Override output is redirected. Number of Restarts0 Indicates how many times the APM may restart Executive Override after it terminates erroneously.
NDA-30080 Revision 1.0Page 89 Sentry Installation Guide Executive Override OAI FacilitiesThese NEAX 2400 facilities are set up automatically if you answered “yes” to the autoconfig prompt during installation. To manually set up the facilities, use the Facilities command on the APM Configuration Entry screen and follow the instructions in the APM Operations Manual. ParameterEntryDescription Facilities MRFI MRFR NTF SCF TCFD TCFI SMFR SMFNThe OAI Facilities required by Executive Override. MSF The unique MSF assignment required for each configuration of Executive Override. The value is a number ranging from 128 to 191.
Page 90NDA-30080 Revision 1.0 Executive Override Sentry Installation Guide Secondary OAI Configuration ParametersThese parameters are defined automatically if you answered “yes” to the autoconfig prompt during installation. Use the OAI-Conf command on the APM Configuration Entry screen to make the entries indicated below for each parameter. Entries for parameters marked by an asterisk (*) must be made exactly as shown. Other entries are examples and are site-dependent. Note: Use the instructions provided for this option in the APM Operations Manual. Note: For more information about the above databases, see Database Requirements on page 92. ParameterEntryDescription Database Name #1*/oai/db/cur/auth1 The path (up to 25 characters) of the authorization code database. If this parameter is blank, the Executive Override program sends a warning message to the APM and will not request authorization codes from users. If an invalid name is entered, an error message is sent to the APM and the Executive Override program terminates. Database Name #2*/oai/db/cur/ station1The path (up to 25 characters) of the Special Station database. If this parameter is blank, the Executive Override program sends a warning message to the APM and continues. If an in- valid file name is entered, an error message is sent to the APM and the Executive Override program terminates. Timeout Value #1The “no answer” timeout value in seconds. This parameter is used whenever Executive Override is ringing an extension. If this parameter is blank, the Executive Override program sends a warning message to the APM and the timeout function is disabled. Timeout Value #2The camp-on time out value in seconds that is used by an automatic override. If this parameter is blank, the Executive Override program sends a warning message to the APM and the time out function is disabled. Do not make an entry for this parameter if User-Defined Value #3 is set to “type basic” or “type monitor”. Tenant Number1Specifies the number of the tenant that Executive Override serves. Source Link NameOAI1TCPIdentifies the port on the source side of the communication link. Destination Link NamePBX1TCPIdentifies the port on the destination side of the communication link. Association Recovery30Designates the number of seconds Executive Override waits before trying to re-establish an association with the NEAX that has been released.
