MAS - Understanding Operation History Events

Transaction database This is a permanent storage area for voice mail system activity. The Reporting Tool is used for extracting information from this database. For more information, see MAS - Reporting Tool.

Operation history database This is a temporary storage area for events that are generated by the voice mail system. The database is purged periodically. The Operation History Viewer is used for viewing events in this database. See MAS - Operation History Viewer Window.


Notes: For information on configuring this database, please refer to the Avaya Modular Messaging Concepts and Planning Guide. For a 1523 application event, use the Microsoft ODBC tool to repair the database (ophist.mdb). If it cannot be repaired, replace the corrupt ophist.mdb with an empty ophist.mdb.

Before you can view events in the Operation History Viewer, you must enable operation history collection for the voice mail domain. See MAS - OHV - Enabling the Collection of Operation History Events.

If the Operation History Viewer is installed on the tracing system machine, a data source is created automatically. If not, you need to select a system data source before you can use the Operation History Viewer. See MAS - OHV - Selecting a Data Source & ODBC Tracing.

Note: If ODBC logging is enabled on the MAS, system performance degrades. ODBC tracing should be enabled for debugging only.
