The GUI images included in this User Guide are intended as examples and do not always reflect the latest interface design. The images will be replaced gradually.
If the web browser crashes, hangs or is manually closed while logged into the EMA GUI, the EMA session will still remain open. Manual intervention by the administrator is required to terminate the session from the EMA GUI. To terminate the hanging session, refer to Users and Application Management - User and Session Management page.
The minimum recommended requirements for each user's computer are outlined below. Configurations that do not meet these recommendations may experience excessively poor performance. Also note that slow network connections can also result in poor performance.
The minimum recommended memory/processor requirements of a client computer/workstation when accessing EMA is following:
The platform/browser combinations supported are listed in the table below.
The minimum browser resolution that is supported is 1024 x 768 pixels.
The EMA provides the ability to view status and statistics across contexts. For example, it is possible to view trunk group status across all zones and address contexts. For large configurations, however, performance may be impacted when viewing status and statistics across contexts. This is especially true for configurations with more than 20 zones.
To address this problem,
Running this script disables all cross-context functionality forcing you to specify the object context before viewing status, statistics or configuration information for an object. For example, after running this script you will need to first select a specific address context and zone in order to view trunk group status or a list of trunk groups.
To disable cross-context queries, perform the following steps:
Enter the following command and press Enter:
/opt/sonus/ema/updateCrossContextDisabledValue.sh true
Log out of the redirection console and close it
Log out of the BMC.
If the
To re-enable cross context queries, follow the steps above substituting the following command with the one in step 5:
/opt/sonus/ema/updateCrossContextDisabledValue.sh false
