How do I enable all alarms in a Definity series switch

[Plumber123]

I have several systems taht I am moving over to AlarnTraq and I "vaguely" remember that there is a command that allows for the enduser /MSP to turn on alarms and to distinguish which are Major, minor or warnings.

thank you ...

to prevent it is better than to have it to cure ..

I believe what you are looking for is under "ch sys main".

yes, "ch sys main" for alarm warning type.

If you have S-Series servers, you need to use "almenable" and "almcall", to setup the # to dial out to (almcall), and almenable to enable dialing out, and which #'s get called... see example below:

dadmin@client-S8300> almenable

Incoming Call: enable
Dial Out Alarm Origination: neither
SNMP Alarm Origination: n

dadmin@client-S8300> almcall

First OSS Number:
Alarm Abbreviation on First Number: y

Second OSS Number:
Alarm Abbreviation on Second Number: y

Alarm Abbreviation Timer: 4
Interval between Retries: 7

dadmin@client-S8300> almenable -?

Usage: almenable [-d [n|f|b]] [-s [y|n]] ] | [-?]
no argument: display
-d: set dial out alarm origination to
n - neither (default)
f - first number only
b - both numbers
-s: enable (default) or disable snmp alarm origination
-?: usage (this)

dadmin@client-S8300> almcall -?

Usage: almcall [-f first-number] [-a [y|n]]
[-s second-number] [-b [y|n]]
[-t [abbreviation-timer]]
[-i [interval]] | [-?]

no argument: display
-f: set first number to first-number
values allowed: up to 30 digits. ',' for pause
-a: set alarm abbreviation on first number to y(es)(default) or n(o)
-s: set second number to second-number
values allowed: up to 30 digits. ',' for pause
-b: set alarm abbreviation on second number to y(es)(default) or n(o)
-t: set alarm abbreviation timer in hours
values allowed: 1-24
default value: 4
-i: set interval between retries in minutes to interval
values allowed: 1-20
default value: 7
-?: usage (this)

dadmin@client-S8300>

Thanks a lot guys ... further research has revealed that the command I need is Set Options. This is how alarms are defined as minor, major and warnings. And of course this is more than dadmin MSPs this requires Avaya. Because they won't allow anyone else permissions to this command ... I've hit a wall.

I appreciate all of yor time and efforst.
