The Vocera Environmental Services Integration uses a VMI connection to
allow the Vocera Environmental Services Integration server and the
Vocera Voice Server to exchange information.
Important:
Do not connect more than one EVS
server to a VS or
VS cluster.
Configuring more than one EVS
connection will cause an interruption in service.
How to Check the Number of VMI Licenses
The Vocera Environmental Services Integration requires an available VMI license to allow the VS to connect to the Vocera Environmental Services Integration server.
How to Set Up the VMI Connection
An environment variable on the Vocera Environmental Services Integration server specifies the IP address of the Vocera Voice Server or cluster. The IP address list is written into the EVS database, and the system uses it to direct VMI requests to the appropriate Vocera Voice Server.
How to Troubleshoot the VMI Connection
Most problems with the VMI connection are due to entering the IP address of the Vocera Voice Server or cluster incorrectly. You cannot solve this problem by editing the value of the environment variable alone. To troubleshoot this issue, you must also delete the IP address list from the database and set up the VMI connection again.
