SMS Failed Command Count

Associated with: SMS Pager Services

The SMS Failed Command Count status attribute indicates the number of invalid SMS messages that have been received via the SMS Pager Channel that is associated with the SMS Service.

If the Fail Count exceeds the value that is configured in the Incoming SMS Fail Limit (see Define the Number of Times an SMS Service will Attempt to Process Messages), an alarm is raised. Additionally, the status attribute changes to SMS Command Status to indicate that the processing of commands has been suspended. For more information on how to manually reset the Fail Count, see Resetting the Fail Count for Incoming SMS Commands.
