Why oh Why 😡 2

[Sowicki10]

I'm sure I'm not the only one over a decade of building and supporting IPO that has had this happened to . "WHY OH WHY DOES A HUNT GROUP GET CORRUPTED " . I have built and supported IPO since the -3.0 days. I want to hear a poll , about this---
You have a hunt group with and overflow to an AA or phantom blah blah and for what ever reason it doesn't work : busy dead whatever ,,,, YOU then delete , rebuild as exactly as it was and save and it works.
-- I cannot understand why this happens ,,
*please comment to relieve my brain that I'm not the only one ..

You're not the only one. Happens with users sometimes too. I haven't noticed it as much since 9.0ish TBH.

This has just happened to a 9.0(12) system customer I picked up.

 

[Sowicki10]

Not to blow my horn on my systems that I build from scratch but this happened to me with 1/20 of systems I make. I would love to know what has gone wrong with programming and setup to cause this

Using 9.1 Manager on 9 will do this and other stuff too.
Also leaving LAN 1 set as DHCP client is guarenteed to screw your groups at some point

I must have say I got lucky over the years because I only had it happen a few times (as in maybe 10).
Corrupted configurations about at the same rate.
I am however on it since 1.2 or 1.2 (so long ago I can't remember) and at that time you had to have the exact release of Manager even the dot release was important sometimes and so I try still to use the correct version of Manager for every site I go to.

DHCP client on LAN1 is what bothers me more as there should be no reason for that to happen EVERRRRR

Avaya should fix that one as it happens every time and is easier to find

I have honestly not had a ton of corrupted groups. Users, on the other hand, seems far more common (maybe just me).

I 100% agree with the DHCP issue. DHCP is so common and used by so many devices how is that only Avaya has an issue with it and refuses to bother fixing it. I am sure it is "working as intended"...

 

[amriddle01]

They know it's not as intended, I have brought it up many times over the years in every beta trial I did.
They say if it was in a previous release they can't log it as a fault with the current release, as the release it first came up was 4 or 4.2 or something and it's way past supported they won't touch that obviously.

You end up with an unfixable fault because of Avaya's own red tape and bureaucracy
