Speech Server or License Manager Is Not Recognized

If you recently added a new speech recognition server or additional license manager hosts, you must
refresh the servers before they can support users. See the “Configuring Speech Recognition” section on
page 4-4.

Servers Displaying Connectivity Problem

The Personal Assistant Control Center provides you with information about the status of the
Personal Assistant servers. To access the Control Center, select System > Control Center from the
Personal Assistant administration web interface.
Table 6-1 indicates the possible server status. Use this information to determine the current server status
and to resolve any problems.

Server Processor Is Running at Maximum

If the Personal Assistant server is consistently running at 100 percent, where nlm and recserver are
consuming all of the CPU cycles, you have a network connection problem. Possible causes include the
cable being unplugged or a DHCP release/renew event.
