Prolog information
Metadata
Keywords:
For control units with a memory card installed, the contents of the card can be viewed using Manager. This view can also be used to add and remove files from the card. This may be useful when the memory card is being used to store Music on Hold or IP phone firmware files.
  • For non-Linux systems, the folders accessed using embedded file management are those on the SD cards installed in the control unit.
  • For Linux based systems, the folder path displays as disk in the embedded file manager. That path maps onto /opt/ipoffice on the server.
  • Access to embedded file management requires security right group permission for Rights GroupsConfigurationManager Operator Rights set to Administrator or Manager.

Embedded Voicemail Files

When viewing the memory card, the files related to Embedded Voicemail are visible, however these files are greyed out (ie. cannot be deleted, downloaded or overwritten).
  • Mailbox greetings and messages are shown as .clp files.
  • The language prompts for Embedded Voicemail functions are stored in separate language sub-folders of lvmail. These are .c11 files.
  • Named prompt files for use by Embedded Voicemail auto attendants are stored in the lvmail\AAG folder and use the same .c11 or .c23 file formats as the language prompts. These files can be created from standard .wav files before being downloaded to the memory card by using the LVM Greeting Utility.

Avaya IP Phone Files

The memory card can be used as the source of files requested by IP Phones when rebooting. For phones using system DHCP, once the files are loaded onto the card, the TFTP Server IP Address and HTTP Server IP Address on the System | System tab must be set to match the system's LAN address.

Viewing a Memory Card

When Advanced | Embedded File Management is selected, the Manager will go through normal system discovery but will only allow selection of systems which can support a memory card. When a system is selected, a valid service user name and password for configuration access to that system is requested. If the system selected does not have a memory card installed, the files view remains blank and the message TFTP:Received TFTP Error "Not Found" appears in Manager's status bar.
