About Session Manager Dashboard
Session Manager Dashboard provides a snapshot view of the health and summary of all the
administered Session Manager instances. It also enables some of the following maintenance
operations:
Before you start a maintenance operation or an upgrade of a Session Manager, you must:
• Set the Session Manager to block new incoming calls (set the Deny New Service state)
and wait for active calls to terminate.
• Shutdown the system
Similarly, after completing the Session Manager maintenance or upgrade operation, you must:
• Reboot the system
• Set the Session Manager to allow new calls (set the Accept New Service state).
