Optivity Telephony Manager: System Administration - BT Business

182 Common services
Directory changes are synchronized with the Station database even if Station
Administration is not running, as OMMessageSync operating concurrently with OTM
Navigator.
Changes made using the Station Administration interface reflect directly in the OTM
Directory. This means that once the Station modification is confirmed, the OTM
Directory is immediately updated.
Retrieval of Station Data
When synchronizing databases, the Directory database must be updated as a separate
process. This happens immediately after the name parsing process.
For a Station set to be added to the OTM directory, it must have at least one CPND
Display Name. For more information, “CPND overview” on page 392.
In Station Administration, the Display Name is the first CPND assigned to that set. The
Display Names associated with the various keys on the set are added to the list of
extensions of the Directory Entity.
Rebuilding the Directory
The OTM Directory can be rebuilt from the data present in the Station Administration
database. The File, Rebuild Directory option has been provided to overcome the
situation where the Directory database has, for whatever reason, become corrupt. The
process involves a “walk-through” of every Station record and may be time-consuming
for large Station databases.
