Problem with call tracing in IMG versions up to 10.5.1

Symptom:

When running software version 10.5.1 ER 2 and earlier on the Dialogic® IMG Integrated Media Gateway 1010 (IMG), call tracing may not be generated on the Dialogic® Gate Control Element Management System (GCEMS).

Additionally, Dialogic® Gate Control Element Management System ClientView may display the message "Configuration NFS Server Failed".

100 /syslog/ /opt/dialogic/common/calltracing NOT MOUNTED (status = 2)

It is also possible that the bold line above may be completely missing.

Reason for the issue:

The problem occurs due to the GCEMS sometimes not sending a particular message to the IMG when it is restarted.

Fix / Solution:

This issue is resolved version 10.5.1 ER 3 or later of the software (firmware build 203).

Workaround:

Removing the "Call Tracing Enable" node in ClientView and re-adding it will force the mount point to be recreated on the IMG and call tracing should be available again.
