Alcatel Unleashed

Hi all.
After migrating from GD and MEX to GD3 and PowerMEX I have a problem with one media gateway.
I have multiple incidents
2011=No more TS between CR X and CR Y or no more conference resources
I've look at GD3 board in 3 media gateway and seen that there is no any available compressors

Have any idea ?

What are the values for:
-No of compressors for IP devices (GD3 parameters)
-N party conference configuration (GD3 parameters)
-N party conference modularity (system)?

Can you show us the exact alarm that you are receiving? (values for X and Y)?
Do you use 4645 Voice mail? Embedded or separate server?
Do you use DR-Link recording?

Thank you for replay
That is additional data

I do not use voice mail or DR-LINK

Make a test and see if you can reproduce the error when you do a 3 way conference.
How are your IP domains configured?
If you declare just 30 ip resources and reboot the board what happens (show compvisu lio afterwards)

I'll try to do a 3-way conference at the next monday.
I have 0 default ip domain with next configuration

After the change of the parameter did you reboot the board/shelf?
You can try to change the GD3 just to test if it is a hw problem.

Yes, sure, I rebooted it
I can use just old GD board. We have no more GD3 boards

Looks pretty strange.
I would try to delete the shelf and recreate it.

It's very hard to delete and recreate board because of active users.
I created a new shelf 10 and registered a GD3 board with it but the result was the same - there is no available compressors

Now I think is clear.
Check with spadmin lock 469
Check the value against the total compressor resources active in your system.
