Installing the Application

Last Updated : Feb 01, 2022 |

You can launch System Status directly from the IP Office system, see Starting System Status. However, it is also possible to install a local copy of the application onto a Windows PC. This allows you to perform actions such as viewing previously captured system snapshot without needing to first connect to a system.

  • Avaya supply the full IP Office admin suite as a download from the Avaya support at https://support.avaya.com.

  • Users of Customer Operations Manager can download the installer from the Applications | IP Office Admin menu.

  • Users of Server Edition web manager can download the installer from the Platform View | App Center menu.

In addition to Manager, the Admin suite includes options to install the following applications:

  • System Monitor This is a tool for system installers and maintainers. Interpreting the information output by System Monitor requires detailed data and telecoms knowledge.

  • System Status Application This is a Java application that can be used to monitor the status of the system such as extension, trunks and other resources. It displays current alarms and most recent historical alarms.

    • The System Status Application requires Java to also be installed on the PC. It is not installed by the admin suite installer. This can be the run-time edition (JRE) or developers kit (JDK). The application has been tested with Oracle and Azul Zulu versions of Java. The presence of Java can be tested using the command java -version.
