Complete Updates
The system administrator can also request a complete update from remote systems at any time using the
system : translation : remote updates form. An update should be requested, for example,
from every remote node in the network when a new network node is added. If the system administrator
wants to request a complete update, they should do so outside of prime-time hours, so voice mail deliveries
are not delayed. In addition, the local AUDIX system will automatically schedule a complete update from
a remote system (to be executed during non-prime time hours) if it detects a discrepancy between its data
base and that of a remote system.
NOTE
For R1V6 or later systems, remote updates have priority over voice mail and status messages
that are to be sent over the network. For R1V5 and earlier systems, voice mail and status
messages are higher priority than remote updates.
If the updates in field on the system : translation : machine : audix/amis/call
delivery form for the local system is set to y, the local system will accept updated data base information
from any remote AUDIX systems in the network for which the updates out field is set to y. Then,
any time an administrator of a remote system adds, deletes, or modifies a subscriber profile, the remote
system will notify the local system of the change. The local system can then update its own data base so the
two systems have the same information about all subscribers.
If the updates out field on the system : translation : machine : audix/amis/call
delivery form for the local system is set to y, the local system will send updated data base information
to remote AUDIX systems in the network for which the updates in field is set to y. Then, any time
the administrator of the local system adds, deletes, or modifies a subscriber profile, the local system will
notify all remote systems of the change. The remote systems can then update their data bases so they agree
with the local system.
Network Turnaround
On R1V7 systems, the system administrator has the option of allowing the network connection to be turned
around. This option is activated using the system : translation : machine :
audix/amis/call delivery form; it can be administered on a system-wide or per-machine basis.
If network connection turnaround is implemented, the local machine will call a remote machine and do
the following: notify the remote system that it has updated subscriber information, request updated
subscriber information from the remote system, and send voice mail and updated message status
information to the remote system. Then network connection will then be turned around and the
remaining events will occur: the remote system will notify the local system that it has updated
subscriber information, request updated subscriber information from the local system, and send voice
mail and updated message status information to the local system.
If the network turnaround feature is not implemented, the local machine will call a remote machine and
do the following: notify the remote system of its updated subscriber information, request updated
subscriber information from the remote system, and send voice mail and updated message status
information to the remote system. The call will then be disconnected.
