This topic provides information about the alarms generated by the
MT application. These alarms indicate a problem with the maintenance
system.
Customer-resolvable alarms
The following alarms can be resolved by the system administrator:
MT ALARM_ORIG 1
Description:
The system failed to contact the remote maintenance center on
six consecutive attempts. The system has active alarms that the
remote maintenance center is not receiving.
Repair Procedure:
If any active alarms are severely affecting service, contact your
remote support center to inform them that your system has been unable
to contact the center with active alarms.
- Start at the Administration main menu and select Basic System
Administration > Alarming Administration.
The system displays the Alarm Management page.
- Verify that the Product ID: and Alarm Destination: fields have
valid entries.
If these fields are blank or do not have valid entries, contact
your remote support center.
If these fields appear to have valid entries, continue with Step
4.
- Check that the telephone line into the remote maintenance circuit
card is in place.
If your system has a modem instead of a remote maintenance circuit
card, check that the modem has power and that all the cables are
connected.
- Contact your remote support
center.
MT BACKUP 2
Description:
An attended backup failed.
Repair Procedure:
To repair the alarm:
- Check for any additional alarms associated with the backup process.
If additional alarms are found, contact your remote support center.
- Insert a different CD-RW medium into the CD-RW drive and try
the backup again.
Note: You must use CD-RW media that can support a 10x
backup.
- If Step 2 fails, contact your remote support center.
