SCSI-to-AUDIX

The SADI (TN475B) is the AUDIX disk controller. It uses the Small Computer

Disk Interface

Systems Interface (SCSI) protocol to communicate with the AUDIX disk drives. The

(SADI)

SADI’s LEDs show which drives are active. The 50-pin drive data cable is called the

 

SCSI cable.

Simplified

Type of data link connection to an integrated 1A ESS Switch or 5ESS Switch in

Message Service

AUDIX R1V4 software.

Interface

 

(SMSI)

 

Service Not

A message displayed at the end of unsuccessful initialization which indicates software

Started

problems, such as a missing or corrupt (bad) filesystem. Normally the system can still

 

display forms, but cannot provide service (answer calls). You may log in after this

 

message.

Shutdown

A procedure required to disable system operation and protect customer data stored on

 

disk before a power down. Select the type of shutdown based on the tasks you need

 

to perform and their urgency, using either the shutdown form or MI toggle switch.

Split

A group (or queue) of analog ports on the switch. See also Call-Distribution Group.

Standalone

An R1V3 AUDIX feature that allows AUDIX to connect to any switch without using

 

a data link. This allows AUDIX to work with a switch built by a different vendor or

 

one that runs an incompatible load of software.

Standard

The normal automatic (default) initialization of the AUDIX system, where firmware

Initialization

first scans for the program ‘‘boot_f’’ on disk 0/0. If not found, the firmware looks for

(Standard Boot)

another boot filesystem to load until all possible combinations have been examined.

Start Service

A message displayed at the end of a successful initialization, indicating that system

 

software is active and display forms are available.

Start-up

See Restart.

Status Line

The top line of an administration or maintenance form displayed on a terminal,

 

showing the active system alarms (if any), logins (up to two), and threshold (disk

 

space) violations.

Subscriber

A person to whom the AUDIX administrator assigns the ability to access the Voice

 

Mailbox feature. Subscribers may also be assigned the optional Call Answer feature

 

on the subscriber : local or cos forms or given LWC permission through

 

the switch.

Subsystem

A major functioning element of AUDIX software and hardware. Subsystems include

 

the Feature Processor (FP), Data Base Processor (DBP), and (on AUDIX-L only) the

 

Voice Session Processor (VSP). VSP devices on AUDIX are run by the FP.

Switch

An analog, digital, or electronic system where data and voice transmissions are not

 

confined to fixed communications paths, but are routed among available ports or

 

channels.

Switch

Custom device used for making AUDIX connections to a 5ESS Switch.

Communications

 

Adapter (SCA)
