Chapter 2. Overview

HealthCheck Tool Overview


HealthCheck is a Web-based tool that you can use to validate connectivity and alarming on
certain Avaya products and run comprehensive configuration checks and assess the overall
health of a product. These checks can be done on a one-time, scheduled, or recurring basis.
The test results can be seen on the report page of the tool, and the report contains detailed
information on how to resolve the failure.
The new HealthCheck Tool Dashboard can be used to view the various KPIs related to the
functional location of a customer or Business Partner.
You can connect this tool to an Avaya product to gather configuration data and compare the
data to Avaya recommended settings. The tool then provides a structured report with
recommendations on those settings that do not match the Avaya recommended settings.
HealthCheck Tool provides the following capabilities :
• Registration: Users can get SEIDs for their products, onboard them to SAL Gateway,
and get the Connectivity/Alarming configured and tested using the Registration feature.
• Validate Connectivity: Ensures that the product can securely connect to Avaya for
remote troubleshooting and automated diagnostics.
• Validate Alarming: Tests remote monitoring to validate Avaya can receive alarms from
your product.
• Validate Configuration: Cross-checks product configuration against Avaya best
practices.
• Product Health: Executes diagnostic routines to provide a readout on overall system
health.
• Software Currency: Compares the currently installed version of the software against the
latest available
HealthCheck Tool automatically runs commands and analyzes the resulting information.
Depending on the system size, the tool takes 10 to 40 minutes to diagnose an error, while
manual checking of the same error takes up to 4 hours.
