95 Routing Service

This target represents the Routing Service. The Routing Service routes calls to Oracle Voicemail and Fax services. When the Telephony Server receives a call from the PBX, the Routing Service answers the call. There are two ways in which the Routing Service gets handed calls: direct and forwarded. A direct call is one made directly to the voice mail system. A forwarded call is a call that is diverted to the voice mail system because the call was not answered or there is a busy signal. The Routing Service retrieves call detail information from the PBX including the callers phone number, the destination phone number, and how the call arrived at the voice mail system (direct or forwarded). If call detail information is unavailable, then the Routing Service allows the caller to choose voice mail recording, retrieval, or transfer to an attendant. For forwarded calls, the Routing Service checks the PBX-Application Clusters call routing map. If the calls destination number is listed in the call routing map, the call is handed off to the IVR (Interactive Voice Response) Service. All other forwarded calls are handed off to the Recording Service.

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each "Process Name" object.

If warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any "Process Name" object, those thresholds can be viewed on the Metric Detail page for this metric.

To specify or change warning or critical threshold values for each "Process Name" object, use the Edit Thresholds page. See Editing Thresholds for information on accessing the Edit Thresholds page.

User Action

No action is required. If there is evidence that the service cannot keep up with the incoming call demand, return to the Routing Service home page, click the Add One Instance button to increase the number of service instances that can handle the calls.

95.1.5 Retrieval Requests

The retrieval requests is the number of requests to retrieve voicemail messages that are being handled by this instance in the Routing Service.

95.2 Routing Instance Resource Usage Metrics

This category includes a set of related metrics that provides you with information about the CPU and memory being used by the Routing Service instance. It provides a snapshot of how the Routing Service instance is performing. If a particular metric is empty, it is likely that the service instance is down and unavailable. Check the Up/Down status metric of the Routing Service instance.

95.2.1 CPU Usage (%)

This metric represents the percentage of the host CPU recorded for this instance of the Routing Service. By default, a critical and warning threshold value is set for this metric. Alerts are generated when threshold values are reached. You can edit the value for a threshold as required.

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each "Name" object.

If warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any "Name" object, those thresholds can be viewed on the Metric Detail page for this metric.

To specify or change warning or critical threshold values for each "Name" object, use the Edit Thresholds page. See Editing Thresholds for information on accessing the Edit Thresholds page.

User Action

You can use this metric to determine if the Routing Service instance is using the most CPU on your system, thereby leading to high end-user response times. If the service instance is consuming a large amount of CPU, consider changing the configuration settings to reduce the CPU consumption. To investigate the cause of the CPU consumption, check for alerts that may have been generated by the following: the Routing Service instance, the Voicemail and Fax Application that this Routing Service instance is a member of (check the status of dependent components - Oracle Internet Directory, Telephony Server), or the host computer.
