To change the default alarm settings:

/rahome/bin
.
3 Open the
.odprocrc
file for editing and locate the alarm section (Figure 5-3).
4 Referring to Table 5-4, change the values that you want to change, being
careful not to change anything else in the file.
5 Save and close the
.odprocrc
file.

Keyword Description
system_id
Uniquely identifies your ReadiVoice system. Don’t change this number.
check_mibs
Boolean. If this is set to 1, at each polling interval, the
ra_monitor.pl
script checks the MIB variables listed in the
ra_monitor.mibs
file and
prints them to standard output (the terminal window in which it’s running).
interval
Interval in seconds between polling for alarms. The default value of 900
(15 minutes) works well for large or busy systems. For a single-bridge or
moderately busy system, you can reduce this to 500 – 700 seconds.
For short-term testing or troubleshooting purposes, you can set this
value to less than 20 seconds; but, you may notice that the ReadiVoice
system slows down at this setting.
sysmax_capacity
Maximum capacity (number of ports) of your system. Don’t change this
number.
brgmax_capacity
Maximum capacity (number of ports) of an individual bridge. Don’t
change this number.
