Setting ownership of the DTTAs

If you are using Digital Telephony Trunk Adapters (DTTAs), you need to set Blueworx Voice Response as the owner of these adapters, as detailed below.

  1. Log on to AIX as root, if you are not logged on already.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
    . /usr/lpp/dirTalk/tools/vae.setenv

    Make sure that you leave a space between the . (period) and /usr.

  3. Type the following command and press Enter:
    lsdev -C | grep rpq
    A list of all the devices installed in the system unit will be displayed, for example:
    rpqio0    Available 1H-08     Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Adapter
    rpqio1    Available 1V-08     Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Adapter
    rpqio2    Available 1Z-08     Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Adapter
    rpqio3    Available 1D-08     Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Adapter
    ddrpqio0  Available 1H-08-00  Digital Telephony Device Driver
    ddrpqio1  Available 1V-08-00  Digital Telephony Device Driver
    ddrpqio2  Available 1Z-08-00  Digital Telephony Device Driver
    ddrpqio3  Available 1D-08-00  Digital Telephony Device Driver
  4. Each line of the output identifies a device. The identifier is on the left, and the description is on the right. You need to register Blueworx Voice Response as the owner of each device described as a Quad Digital Trunk PCI Telephony Adapter.

    The last digit of the identifier is the adapter_number which is input to the dt_setowner command. For a DTTA, you need to supply two other pieces of information to the dt_setowner command: the adapter type (-x) and the trunk type (-t).

    The dt_setowner command is in the format:
    dt_setowner -x -s adapter_number -t T1 | E1
    where adapter_number is the last digit of the identifier. For example, to register Blueworx Voice Response as the owner of the DTTA whose identifier is rpqio1, type one of the following commands and press Enter:
    dt_setowner -x -s1  -t T1
    or
    dt_setowner -x -s1  -t E1
