Stratagy Flash, IVP8 System Software
Stratagy’s flexibility is largely a result of its software. The following provides a brief overview of
the Stratagy system software. Refer to the Stratagy Installation and Maintenance Manual for more
details.
Operating System
Controls all real-time voice processing functions through the use of simple administrative menus,
diagnostics, system activity, and collection and reporting of data.
Diagnostic Programs
Online diagnostic tests run continuously to detect and report errors in operation. The tests run in
the background and do not interfere with normal system operation. Other diagnostic tests can be
run upon demand, either from a directly-connected or remote terminal.
Stratagy Admin
A program called Stratagy Admin resides on a separate customer-supplied IBM-compatible PC.
The Admin software is composed of the administrative and configuration menus for the system.
Operating software, greetings, and messages (database) are stored in the IVP8 and Stratagy Flash’s
flash memory.
Note In order to maintain Stratagy system integrity, customer-supplied anti-virus software
should be resident and active on any PC that is connected for any reason to the Stratagy
system (e.g., system administration via Stratagy Admin).
Automatic System Recovery
An Archive directory, consisting of three subdirectories (i.e., Original, Good, and Suspect), is part
of the Stratagy system. Each subdirectory contains a version of the Stratagy batch files,
configuration files and voice mailbox database.
If an unsuccessful startup is detected by the program, Stratagy copies the files in question to the
Suspect subdirectory, shuts down and reboots using the files in the Good subdirectory. The Suspect
files can be used to debug configuration problems.
Disk Full Prevention
Starting with Stratagy Release 3.2 software, Stratagy reserves a small portion of the available disk
space to ensure a successful system start up. When the storage reaches the reserved limit, Stratagy
goes into protection mode. In protection mode, Stratagy:
• Advises callers that it is unable to take a message.
• Deactivates the system trace and message log files, if they are running at the time.
Once there is available disk space, Stratagy resumes recording. However, since disk space may
still be marginal, the system trace and message log files will not resume until the next system start
up.
This feature is intended to work in conjunction with the Disk Space Notification feature that
automatically notifies the System Administrator whenever the available system disk space falls
below a defined threshold.
