Configuring a DBA serial port session<br />

Procedure 37<br />

Configuring a DBA serial port session<br />

1 From the Navigator window, choose Utilities > Data Buffering & Access.<br />

The DBA main application window appears.<br />

2 From the DBA Main application window, select File > New Session.<br />

3 In the “Select an M1 <strong>System</strong> for Live session” dialog box, a tree displays the Site and<br />

<strong>System</strong>s that can be used to collect serial data. Select a system from the tree to use<br />

for the new session.<br />

4 In the New Session dialog box, select a Com port from the Connect Using combo<br />

box. The Connect Using combo box retrieves the available serial ports from the<br />

Registry. If you are using an Ethernet connection, then set Connect Using to<br />

Network.<br />

Based on whether you have selected a serial or network connection, the fields that<br />

can be configured are enabled.<br />

5 Select Connect Now once you have configured the settings for the connection. If<br />

the connection is successful, the session window shows Connected in the window<br />

title. For serial connections, the session is connected if the port is available. This<br />

does not indicate that the device is connected to the serial port.<br />

Start a new live data session<br />

553-3001-330 Standard 3.00 August 2005<br />

End of Procedure<br />

To collect live data, you must start and configure a live data session (an active<br />

connection to a system). The DBA application runs continuously during the session,<br />

providing access for session configuration and a window for monitoring session<br />

information. Special operations, such as a database backup, can be run immediately or<br />

scheduled to run within a session.<br />

To maintain a live data session, you must keep the DBA main window open<br />

continuously. To minimize screen congestion, hide the DBA main window to remove it<br />

from the Windows Desktop. See “Hide and restore the DBA main window” on<br />

page 257.<br />

For Small <strong>System</strong>s with survivable expansion cabinets and systems with survivable<br />

media gateways, it is possible to have live data delivered to DBA from the main cabinet<br />

or call server. When the systems are operating in normal mode, there is no call<br />

processing taking place on the expansion cabinets or the media gateways; therefore, no<br />

CDR data is sent from the expansion cabinets or media gateways.
