MPP/WAS

IVR: All hotlines are down as in no announcement in IVR because of exceed in tomcat heap size.

Issue scenario: In IVR, All hotlines are down as in no announcement in IVR because of exceed in tomcat heap size.

Analysis: These announcement call flows will be in IW and will be processed by the IW interpreter which is placed inside Tomcat.

Logs:

We can check tomcat catalina logs which will be usually inside the path: $/tomcat/logs/catalina

Also, we can check in IWIVRClient log

If we see "runoutofmemory" error/exception in catalina log then it is because Tomcat ran out of heap space.

Workaround:

We will need to increase the Tomcat memory size and restart the Tomcat server.

We can increase the Tomcat heap space by specifying something like below by double-clicking a file which will be of the name like  "$TomcatNamew.exe" found in "/Tomcat/bin/"

Usually maximum limit will be 4096 MB which is 4 GB.

Initial memory pool: 512 MB

Maximum memory pool: 4096 MB

Before making the above changes (primary) we need to make sure that IVR calls are routed to secondary. This can be done in AEP (voice portal).

Once changes are done then tomcat restart is required.

Post-service restart please check Catalina logs to make sure the changes are affected.

Then we can make IVR hotline calls and verify the respective IWInterpreter logs and IWIVRClient logs.

ADD/Manage MPP Error handlers via Avaya EPM

The MPP Error handlers are the flow file which will be used when MPP could not able to connect to IVR/WAS servers due to certain reasons. In such cases, we can control the call via using these error handler flow files which areADD AND MANAGE THE VXML ERROR HANDLER TO THE MPP configured in the Avaya EPM portal.

This document will guide the user to add and manage error event handlers in the EPM.
