T-Server now enables clients to request T-Server to stop recording new calls while the link is disconnected. (TS-11007)
A new restricted configuration option, use-zero-noncontroller-released-digits, enables the use of the

and
noncontroller-released-digits
is zero, T-Server now uses the message to release one branch of a consultation call. The call will be released if it contains exactly two
branches and the branch being released contains exactly one internal and one external party. Otherwise it is impossible for T-Server
to determine which branch and party has been dropped.

Windows 2008 platform, in 32-bit native, 64-bit native, and 64-bit compatibility modes. TSCP adds support for the
newer ex25.dll

This section provides the latest information on known issues and recommendations associated with this product.
To ensure backward compatibility, T-Server provides two options that define how many licenses T-Server can check out:
When the values of the two options are different, then T-Server applies the lower one, so Genesys recommends that you leave the option num-sdn-licenses at the default value max and set the option num-of-licenses to the actual number of licenses that you want T-Server to check out. Alternatively, you can set both options to the same value.
num-of-licenses
Default Value: max (equivalent to 9999 licenses)
Valid Values: max (equivalent to 9999) or any integer
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Specifies the maximum number of DN licenses T-Server can check out. The values max or 0 (zero) is equal to exactly 9999 licenses. To check out any other number of licenses, specify the value as an integer, up to the number of seats supportable in your environment. The sum of all num-of-licenses values for all concurrently deployed T-Servers must not exceed the number of seat-related DN licenses (tserver_sdn) in the corresponding license file. The primary and backup T-Servers share the same licenses, and therefore they need to be counted only once. T-Server checks out the number of licenses indicated by the value for this option, regardless of the number actually in use.
num-sdn-licenses
Default Value: max (all DN licenses are seat-related)
Valid Values: String max (equal to the value of num-of-licenses) or any integer.
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Specifies how many seat-related licenses T-Server checks out. A value of 0 (zero) means that T-Server does not grant control of seat-related DNs to any client, and it does not look for seat-related DN licenses at all. A value of "max" means that T-Server checks out the number of licenses defined in option num-of-licenses. The sum of all num-sdn-licenses values for all concurrently deployed T-Servers must not exceed the number of seat-related DN licenses (tserver_sdn) in the corresponding license file. The primary and backup T-Servers share the same licenses, and therefore they need to be counted only once. T-Server checks out the number of licenses indicated by the value for this option, regardless of the number actually in use.

In an AlternateCall
scenario where one branch of a consultation call is released, there is no messaging from the switch to indicate the state of the controlling party (held
, connected
, or ringing
). The switch vendor has provided rules for determining the state, specifically, that after the release, the controlling party is in the:
held
state if the consultation call was done manually, or
connected
state if the consultation call was done via CTI and the controller did not itself cause the release by manually releasing, or
ringing
state if the consultation call was done via CTI and the controller itself did cause the release by manually releasing.
To determine the correct state after the release, T-Server follows rules (1) and (2) but not (3). This is a limitation caused by the fact that it is difficult or impossible to determine if it was the controller that manually released the call branch. Therefore, in cases where the controller manually releases one branch of a CTI consulted call, T-Server will incorrectly place the controlling party in the connected
state, instead of the ringing
state. That is, it will distribute EventRetrieved
(if necessary), but not EventRinging
.
