Turn off all message waiting lights on SV8500 (system wide)

[phoneguy94]

Hey guys

I need to turn off and disable all Message Waiting Lights (MWI) on my SV8500.

I found command CMWL to turn off lights, but that is one station at a time. I have removed the "MWI on Code" from voicemail to keep them from going on, but how do I turn off the lights that are currently on?

Is there a way to turn off Message waiting lights (MWI) off for all stations?

thanks

A SINZ might do it but I have never tried it! Make sure you have a backup and do it outside normal hours!

I found that you can use a meta key combination over the MCI link, though it has been years since I had to do that. The easiest way is to just use the SINZ command to reboot the system. When the system restarts all message waiting lights are off. But as OZZIE says make sure you have a good set of backups!!

thanks guys.
We figured out that if we changed the MWI ON code to match the MWI OFF code, it would turn off all the lights after we re-synced message waiting lights.
