Problems with CMS Supervisor / reports try clearing the CMS Supervisor cache file;
** dependant on your version i.e. R18
CMS affectively has two times start time which is the acd default time and start time +utc which is the timezone handled by TZ. (TZ updater is used to update timezone information)
The time zone is handled by the variable TZ. For global configuration edit the “/etc/default/init” file and alter the TZ line for example:
TZ=GMT if you want to set it to GMT.
To change date from CLI
date -s “30 october 2016 08:41”
to view from CLI

Checking the wallboard using rt socket as to provide the feed. From the CMS command line type;
/export/home/pserv/rt_socket/testrpt
It will ask you confirm the socket number usually the default 1 so click enter.
You will now see the feed to the wallboard
configuration is in the rta.conf file in the same directory.
In instances both you and the customer require root access you can build them a secondary root password this will have to be done from the current root login;
First add the user
adduser root2
Give the new user a password
passwd root2
Change the permissions of your new login
vi /etc/passwd
Scroll down to the bottom where your new login is created and change it to the following;
root2:x:0:0:root:/export/home/root2:/bin/bash
Quit vi (esc followed by :wq! should save it)
Now test and confirm it works.
On the CLI at ROOT
Shutdown CMS
/usr/bin/shutdown -y -g0 -i0
Reboot CMS
/usr/bin/shutdown -y -g0 -i6
Power Up CMS
Push the button and wait. Once the CMS is up from the CLI
tail /cms/pbx/acd1/spi.err
You will see a number of messages PUMP-UP but you are waiting for the DATAX with the number of calls beside it which means you are seeing data from the switch.
**Notes added by Giel**
It worth noting that these commands are used on Avaya CMS running on the Solaris operating system.
/usr/bin/shutdown -y -g0 -i0 will take you to the OK boot prompt, which means it will shut the software but still allow you to run diagnostics on the hardware. This run level can also be reached by pressing the STOP + A keys on the Sun Keyboard.
Init 0= OK boot prompt (i0)
Init 3 = Normal running level (i3)
Init 5 =Shutdown and power off (i5)
Init 6=Reboot (i6)
The “g0” refers to the grace period before shutdown
ADM = performed every 30 days login as root and type “cmsadm”
Insert new tape into the CMS Backup tape drive
Log in using cms login
Terminal type is 615 [enter]
$ su root [enter] [enter in root password, enter]
# cmsadm [enter]
Select “3” for Backup [enter]
Press “Enter” when ready
Follow CMS routine, selecting enter to defaults, when complete, label the tape with the date as well as the information displayed by CMS as instructed & store in fire proof safe.
Return the appropriate incremental tape back into the tape drive.
To check the back up has been done
find /cms/ -name backup.success -ls
To make the system think it has been done you can use the command just to stop the users getting the error message. The backup will still need to be performed.
touch /cms -name/install/logdir/backup.success -ls
or
cd / /cms/install/logdir
touch backup.success
