Troubleshooting
This chapter describes problems that can occur when you operate Interactive Voice Response, and
suggested solutions.
Business Communications Manager is sluggish. Response time is slow
Make sure that the number of scripts assigned to lines via PeriView matches the maximum number
of Interactive Voice Response Ports in the MSC Configuration section in Unified Manager. Refer
to
“Using PeriView to load and configure scripts” on page 36.
Interactive Voice Response is not working after I restore an Interactive Voice Response
backup on a new disk
Make sure Interactive Voice Response is not disabled as a service. Refer to “Changing how
Interactive Voice Response service operates after a reboot” on page 47.
PeriView cannot see Business Communications Manager
• Make sure that the vpshosts file on the PeriView workstation is properly populated. Refer to
“8. Add the Business Communications Manager node number and name to the VPSHOSTS
file” on page 22.
• Make sure that the hosts file on the PeriView workstation is properly populated. Refer to “9.
Add IP information for the Business Communication Managers to the HOSTS file” on page
23.

I see errors in the EventViewer on Business Communications Manager for Interactive Voice
Response
Some errors can be expected if Interactive Voice Response is running as a service but you have not
yet downloaded prompts or assigned scripts to lines. If you have downloaded prompts and
configured scripts, check the list of Alarms and SNMP Traps for Interactive Voice Response
information. This can help you analyze the problem.
To check the list of Alarms and SNMP Traps:
1 Start Unified Manager.
2 Click the Maintenance button.
3 Log on with your user name and password.
The Product Maintenance & Support page appears.
4 Click the Alarms and SNMP Traps link.
