You can speed up the process of enabling voice mail on multiple Modular Messaging subscriber mailboxes by using two Avaya tools:
* User Listing Tool You can use this tool to generate an input file in the Comma Separated Value (*.CSV) format listing the subscribers for whom you wish to enable voice mail.
Note: You can also use database programs, such as Microsoft Access, or spreadsheet programs, such as Microsoft Excel, to create or alter the input file in the *.CSV format.
* Bulk Voice Mail Enabler You can use this tool to automate the administration of the listed subscribers.
User Listing Tool (FEDBQuery)
To create an input file listing the subscribers for whom you wish to enable voice mail, the User Listing Tool performs a query on the Front End Database (FEDB) and records the required properties into the *.CSV file that you specify.
The User Listing Tool is a part of the Avaya support tools installation. Typically, you can run it from the C:\Avaya_Support\Tools\FEDBQuery directory.
Note: You must run the User Listing Tool only on a Messaging Application Server (MAS).
For more information, see MAS - VME - Creating an Input File Listing Subscribers.
Bulk Voice Mail Enabler (VMEnable)
The Bulk Voice Mail Enabler is a software application that helps you to process subscriber information in bulk for the subscribers listed in the input file, and automate the process of enabling voice mail on numerous subscriber mailboxes.
You can also modify the voice mail settings on subscriber mailboxes on which voice mail is already enabled.
The Bulk Voice Mail Enabler is a part of the Avaya support tools installation. Typically, you can run it from the C:\Avaya_Support\Tools\VMEnable directory.
