UM services

Errors during fax or SMS transmission as well as fax or voicemail reception are written to the UM log files. The logging for UM is activated by default with the level error search under System settings > Logging > UM services > Logging.

For troubleshooting, reproduce the behavior, e.g. send a fax again. The log files can be accessed in the XPhone Connect Server under System settings > UM > Services directly for the respective service by clicking on Logging.

This logging window has a Download log files button. Clicking this button archives the data in a ZIP file which can be sent product support together with an exact description of the procedure.

Hint

Log files which are more than five days old are automatically deleted.

Logging

Here logging can be activated and the degree of detail (Detailed debug notifications, Only warnings, Only errors) can be specified.

The log files are saved in the directory:

<XPhone Connect Server Installationsverzeichnis>\\UMS\Log

Hint

If you have activated the highest logging level for troubleshooting, remember to reset the level once the problem has been rectified to Warning or Only errors. Forgetting to perform a reset diminishes system performance and increases hard disk use.

The following log files are of relevance for the individual services:

  • Voicemail player

    If an employee listens to his voicemail messages via the end device by clicking the “Play” button in the voicemail form in XPhone Connect Client or Microsoft Outlook and is then automatically called, this is handled by the Voicemail player service. All other voicemail processes are written in the Voicemail log.

  • Voicemail

    The Voicemail service is responsible when a voicemail is recorded for a user or the user checks his voicemail inbox by calling the voicemail number. Processes such as Transferring callers via a voicemail greeting and all Auto Attendant processes are recorded in this log. Messages left for users are passed on to the SMTP relay service and then passed on to the internal or external e-mail server’s inbox.

  • Receiving faxes (Fax2Mail)

    Fax messages received are initially received by the Receiving faxes (Fax2Mail) service. Once the corresponding user has been found in XPhone Connect Server, the fax is relayed to the SMTP Sender service which sends the fax to the internal or external e-mail server’s inbox, e.g. Exchange, via the SMTP relay service. Please also note the log files for SMTP Sender and SMTP Relay.

  • Fax messages (Mail2Fax)

    Fax messages sent by the XPhone Connect Client, Microsoft Outlook or other e-mail clients are initially processed by the Inbound SMTP service (smtpCmds), followed by the SMTP Receiver service which then passes them on to the Fax dispatch service (Mail2Fax). If no entries can be found on fax dispatch in the logs referred to above, the fax may be stuck in the e-mail server, e.g. Exchange. Check the e-mail server used.

  • Text message dispatch (Mail2SMS)

    Text messages sent from XPhone Connect Client are initially processed by the Inbound SMTP service (smtpCmds), followed by the SMTP receiver (SMTP Receiver) which then passes them on to the Text message dispatch service (Mail2SMS). Check the log files referred to; if nothing is logged here, the text message is stuck in the e-mail server, e.g. Exchange. If necessary, check the e-mail server used.

  • SMTP dispatch (SMTP Sender)

    Inbound fax messages or voicemails are relayed to this service by the Inbound fax service (Fax2Mail) or voicemail in order to supply them to the user via the SMTP relay service in the user’s inbox or on the internal or external e-mail server.

  • Fax printer (Fax2Print)

    This service logs all incoming fax messages which are automatically printed on a printer.

  • SMTP receipt (SMTP Receiver)

    This service receives faxes or text messages to be sent from the SMTP Inbound service (smtpCmds) in order to relay them to the Fax dispatch service (Mail2Fax) or the Text message dispatch service (Mail2SMS).

Internal e-mail server log:

  • IMAP (imapCmds)

    This service logs queries of the XPhone Connect Client for new UM elements (faxes, voicemails, text messages) from the XPhone Connect Server. It also logs when a user wishes to listen to his voicemails by remote access in the internal e-mail server.

  • SMTP input (smtpCmds)

    This service logs fax and text message dispatch by the XPhone Connect Client, or via Outlook or other e-mail clients. The receipt of fax messages and voicemails is also logged as well as the fax and text message delivery reports (DRs, NDRs).

  • SMTP relay service

    If the SMTP input service (SmtpCmds) establishes that the incoming e-mail (fax, voicemail or text message) is not intended for a certain internal inbox, this element is relayed to the e-mail server installed under System settings > E-Mail Gateway. This communication between the internal e-mail server and the external e-mail server (e.g. Microsoft Exchange or Domino Server) is logged here.

Administrator alert

This is where you specify an email address to be used for alarm messages. The administrator alarm is activated when the check box is ticked.

Recording of connection data

It is possible to generate a connection data file about all sent and received fax documents. This is created in .CDR format in the directory <XPhone Connect Server installation directory>\UMS\CDR.

Activate the creation of a connection data file here and specify the time for daily creation. Choose a time outside of the normal working hours. In general, the default setting can be kept.

Format of the connection data file

Connection data are recorded in text files, which you can find the cdr sub-directory. The connection data are recorded separately for sending and receiving.

  • Sending data are saved in files with the name template M2Fyyyymmdd.cdr.

  • Receive data is stored under F2Myyymmdd.cdr. yyymmdd stands for year, month and day of recording.

Each connection consists of a data set with several fields separated by a TAB (ASCII 09hex). The data sets are separated by carriage return / line feed (ASCII 0D0Ahex).
