NMS OAM performs configuration, monitoring, and testing functions across the telephony resources, including the AG boards.
NMS OAM manages a central database of configuration information. Every board in the system has a record in the database describing its configuration. NMS OAM can start boards based on the information in the database.
You can control NMS OAM using functions from the OAM service. You can also control it using various utilities. One of these utilities, oamsys, effectively takes the place of the agmon configuration and booting function. It loads a configuration file into the NMS OAM database and then starts the boards.
Another utility, oammon, takes the place of the agmon monitoring function. After running oamsys, you can run oammon to monitor board errors and other board-level events. For details on using these utilities to configure the AG system, refer to Configuring and starting the system with oamsys.
For more information about loading, configuring, and monitoring boards in an NMS OAM system, refer to the NMS OAM System User's Manual.
