Refreshing data in the OM browser
The system updates the OM data according to the interval that is configured for
the OfficeTransferPeriod configuration parameter. After the browser is open for an
extended period, you can query the latest OM data.
1 In the OM browser, from the Type drop-down menu, select Active or
Holding.
2 Click Refresh.
OM file rotation period configuration
You can configure the active OM rotation interval and file size based on a File
Type profile that is configured at the System Management Console. Different
profiles can be created and these profiles can be assigned for each network
element or at the system level. Typically, a single profile is configured at the
system level. For information about configuring File Type profiles, see the
information about rotation rules in “File Type” on page 47.
OM interval period configuration
You can configure the length of OM interval periods to determine if the active OM
period lasts 5, 15, 30, or 60 minutes. After the configured interval, the system
collects OMs and moves them to holding status, and a new active OM interval
period begins. The OfficeTransferPeriod configuration parameter that controls the
interval is configured on a component by component basis. See the information
about modifying configuration parameters in “Modifying configuration
parameters” on page 68.
Note: If you start the OM browser from the physical view window for a
specific instance of a network element, such as SM_0, the Instance drop-
down list is not available for that OM browser.
