Policy
When you enable the Enable Policy Based Assignment of Session Managers field on the ElementsSession ManagerGlobal Settings page, the system displays the Policy field to select the required policy for the Session Manager communication profile.
For more information, see Administering Avaya Aura® Session Manager.
Based on the policy selection, the system displays the relevant fields. The options are:
  • fixed: When you select this option, the system displays the Primary Session Manager, Secondary Session Manager, Third Session Manager, and Fourth Session Manager fields.
    The default value is fixed.
  • fixed-region: When you select this option, the system displays the Primary Region, Secondary Region, Third Region, and Fourth Region fields.
    The system assigns the primary, secondary, third, or fourth region to the Session Manager Communication profile.
  • location-region: When you select this option, the system does not display the Primary Session Manager and Secondary Session Manager fields and dynamically assigns Session Managers based on the mapping of locations to regions on the ElementsSession ManagerSession Manager AdministrationGroupsLocation to Region Mapping page.
Note:
If the Enable Policy Based Assignment of Session Managers field on the ElementsSession ManagerGlobal Settings page is not enabled, the system displays the Primary Session Manager and Secondary Session Manager fields similar to the Release 8.1.x and earlier system.
Primary Session Manager
The name of the primary Session Manager that is used as the default access point for connecting devices associated with the Communication Profile to the Avaya Aura® network.
You must select the Session Manager server.
Secondary Session Manager
The Session Manager instance that you select as the secondary Session Manager. It provides continued service to SIP devices associated with this communication profile when the primary Session Manager server becomes unavailable. This is an optional field.
All the four Session Manager values must be unique.
For example, if you select the same Session Manager server instance in the Secondary Session Manager field as the Primary Session Manager field, the system displays the following error message:
The Secondary Session Manager cannot be the same as the Primary Session Manager.
Third Session Manager
The Session Manager instance that you select as the third Session Manager. It provides continued service to SIP devices associated with this communication profile when the primary or the secondary Session Manager server becomes unavailable. This is an optional field.
You must select the value of the Session Manager servers as per the order of display.
For example, if you select the third Session Manager value before the secondary Session Manager, the system displays the following error message:
Selection of Session Managers should be as per their order of display. Select Secondary Session Manager before Third Session Manager.
Fourth Session Manager
The Session Manager instance that you select as the fourth Session Manager. It provides continued service to SIP devices associated with this communication profile when the primary, secondary, or third Session Manager server becomes unavailable. This is an optional field.
Primary Region
The Session Manager region that you select as the primary region. You must select the primary region of the Session Manager server.
You can create the regions on the ElementsSession ManagerSession Manager AdministrationGroupsSession Manager Groups page.
You must select the value of regions as per the order of display.
For example, if you select the secondary region value before the primary region, the system displays the following error message:
Selection of regions should be as per their order of display. Select Primary Region before Secondary Region.
Secondary Region
The Session Manager region that you select as the secondary region. This is an optional field.
Note:
  • If you select the same region for the primary and secondary regions, then there must be a minimum of two Session Managers in that region.
  • If you select 4 different regions, then there must be a minimum of 1 Session Manager in each region.
If you select the same region and the region does not have sufficient Session Managers, the system displays the following error message:
<Secondary Region> - <Name_of_the_Region> the assigned regions must contain enough SMs to satisfy the Primary/Secondary/Third/Fourth region selection count.
Third Region
The Session Manager region that you select as the third region. This is an optional field.
Fourth Region
The Session Manager region that you select as the fourth region. This is an optional field.

Note:
If you specify origination and termination application sequences, and if each sequence contains a Communication Manager application, then Communication Manager must be the same in both the sequences.
