What is the procedure of Call Manager upgrade from version CUCM 7.1 (MCS Server) to version CUCM 10.2 (on UCS server)

Hi
What is the procedure of Call Manager upgrade from version CUCM 7.1 (MCS Server) to version CUCM 10.2 (on UCS server) , please let me know the steps to what would be the backup procedures and upgrades.
Regards
Gaurav

I'd suggest reading this guide to make sure you have prepared your environment to support 10.x first. The link below also contains the upgrade path to 10.0(1).
One of the ways you can do this is:
1/ Apply refresh upgrade cop file on all servers in cluster.
2/ Upgrade the cluster to 8.6(2). Take a backup of the cluster.
3/ Build a cluster of 8.6(2) servers on VMs, and assign them the same hostnames and IP address as the hardware cluster. (You may need to keep these on a separate network until switching off the hardware machines)
4/ Restore the backup taken from the hardware cluster on to the VM cluster.
5/ Upgrade VM cluster to 10.0(1).

Cisco Call Manager and LifeSize Endpoints

Hello dear support community,
last week I asked which version of Cisco Call Manager supports BFCP (https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3966334).
Unfortunately I asked the wrong question.
As it turns out I just didn't need to know which version of Call Manager supports BFCP, which I know now, I also need to know if Call Manager is compatible with LifeSize systems?
Here is the setting, so you know what I'm dealing with:
The costumer uses Cisco Call Manager (Ver. 9.1) as SIP registrar for his LifeSize endpoints. The problem is, when he is making a video conference (via SIP) and he wants to share a presentation, the other side either sees him or the presentation, but not both.
We tried it with our Call Manager (Ver. 9.0) and some LifeSize endpoints. As soon as the LifeSize endpoint uses CUCM as SIP registrar, the option to share the presentation is completely gone.
I guess the costumer switched sources from cam to pc. That would explain why he just sees either video or presentation. But, as you might have guessed, it's not an acceptable solution for the costumer.
And yes, we made sure that BFCP is enabled for the endpoints.
So, what I'm asking myself and you is:
Is this known? And more important, is there a reliable workaround?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best regards
Tobias

I've been down this road and when I asked the question Lifesize's stance was that it wasn't supported by THEM. I pointed out that CUCM now supports line-side BFCP but they essentially shrugged their shoulders. Either they are blatently disabling content sharing by virtue of using a SIP Proxy or they have a priorietary SDP/header that CUCM isn't passing through.
Either you can call Lifesize and shake them up a bit or you can wireshark the SIP dialog to see what the codec asks CUCM before disabling the sharing button. Once you know that you might be able to use SIP transparancy to pass the header through.

Integration with Cisco Call Manager?

We have Cisco VOIP phones and we would like to continue managing calls with Cisco Call Manager. We currently have voicemail on Cisco Unity. We currently have Exchange 2010, but plan to start using Exchange 2013 soon.
However, we would like to migrate voicemail service from Cisco Unity to Exchange Unified Messaging and also want to take advantage of most of the voicemail-related features of UM such as voice to text sent to email, voice mail waiting indicator light on
the phones and sending voice mail audio attachments to email.
Is Exchange 2013 Unified Messaging compatible Cisco phones that are managed by Cisco Call Manager?
We have 500 users and 2 Exchange 2010 servers (1 CAS and 1 Mailbox Server). We now have a few Exchange 2013 licenses available in addition to our existing 2010 licenses that are already used on our existing 2 servers. Can we keep the 2 existing
Exchange 2010 servers as they are and create a new Unified Messaging server on Exchange 2013 in the same environment or do we need to upgrade all the 2010 servers to 2013 if we use Unified Messaging on 2013?

Is it possible to integrate Nokia E62 with Cisco Call Manager 4.x?

The Nokia E-61 can be integrated with Cisco Call manager 4.x using a Nokia Call Connect 1.0 client.
1.Is it possible to do the same with Nokia E62.If it can be done,what would be the requirements?
2.Is Nokia E-62 PDA a Cisco Compatible Extension device?

Thanks a lot for the prompt reply.You are right in saying that nokia and cisco are increasing the number of models supported.Infact the E65 has already joined the club.But my point of interest is the nokia E62 in particular.This Nokia E62 device
1) does not support WLAN interface(while E61,E65 does).
2) It is not Cisco Commpatible extension device.(I did not find E62 in the list of Cisco Compatible extensions.chk out the attachments for more info).
3)It is not compatible with Nokia Intellisync CAll Connect 1.0(while E61 and E65 are compatible.chk out the attachment for more info).
I found this rather weird and i wondered if Nokia E62 can be integrated with Cisco Call manager ,especially a device which is not Cisco compatible.The only possibility i can see from your answer is that the Nokia E62 might not be SIP enabled(correct me if i am wrong here!)
My objective is to send a message from a CUAE script to a nokia E62 device.Please excuse me if my posting is not in the right place.i would be highly grateful to you if you could give me pointers to an appropiate location where i can get my queries answered.

Cisco Call Manager and MGCP Question

Hello,
I appreciate if somebody can help.
Scenario:
Site 1 PSTN E1----VG----Call Manager----VG--- PABX---Site 2 PSTN1 E1
I have configured a dialing pattern on Cisco call manager 6.xxxxxx to Send to VG on Site1
Both VG routers are using MGCP with call Manager.
The problem if from Site 2 tries to call 6xxxxxx the call manager is not routing the call to the VG in site 1.
I did debug ccapi inout and on Site 2 VG the call response was the number unassigned. This means that the call Manager is searching the directory for the destination but it is not searching the route patterns.
Any ideas to override this and ask the call manager to check it's destination pattern?
Thanks,

Problem solved. The VG in Site 2 was in a CSS that is not allowed to dial PSTN.

Cisco Call Manager TFTP requests.

I was looking to see if there was a way to look at what devices request config files from a Cisco Call Manager TFTP server.
I know that you can use RTMT to look at the total number of requests made, but is there a way to know what device make the request.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

You could do this by doing a packet capture on the server as described in the link below

Cisco Call Manager MIB and OID.

Hi,
One of our customer has developed their own NMS software to manage multiple OEM products.
They want to integrate Cisco Call Manager 7.0 and Cisco Router with the NMS software for monitoring/managing of Voice traffic.
The monitoring of CUCM 7.0 will consists of the following-
1. Call History
2. Missed calls.
3. Calls in progress,
4, Dropped Calls.
The Monitoring of Cisco Router will Consists of Interface statistics and Portwise Traffic statistics of LAN and WAN Ports.
I believe this monitoring is done through Call Detailed Record and if I will load the CDR MIBs in NMS software it will be able to log CRD logs from CUCM 7.0.
Please suggest that if the same is possible.??.
kindly help me in getting the MIBs/OIDs for the same.
Best regards,
Puneet K.

Hi,
For 200+ users you should better go with Cisco CallManager (CUCM). Although ISR G2 supports 250+ users, it will not provide clustering mechanism and additional HA capabilities as CUCM does.
You can read the Call Processing chapter of the CUCM SRND:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/srnd/9x/callpros.html
Hope to help, please remember to rate helpful posts.

Cisco Call Manager replication issue

Hello
We are running a cluster of 3 servers with Cisco Call Manager version 6
I have noticed that the replication status is 3 on all servers and from the CM Database Status I can see queue of updates are stuck
I have restarted Pub and one Sub but the status is still 3 and queue status is still the same
Is there anything I can do to make it work?
Thank you

Thank you,
I will try them tomorrow, but I thought restarting the servers will also reset the replication
Btw, there was a time difference on the servers due to NTP failure and I have just noticed that Pub can not see one of the Subs, the replication status is 0 and

Cisco Call Manager Question

Hi,
I have a quick question on the Cisco Call Manger. Is it possible to have a Cisco call manager store a list of contacts, and then transfer all the list to any phone that registers to it? Furthermore, if this is possible, will the contacts be stored in the phones volatile or nonvolatile memory?
Thanks!
Billy

in call manager the directory list can be search by ip phones
the rource is from the end users page/settings
these details are either entered manually by system admin
or can be automatic when you integrate with LDAP like Microsoft AD

Cisco Call Manager 5.1 and Cisco VoIP Gateways

Hi,
I have Cisco Call Manager 5.1 with Cisco 2800 series routers as a ISDN gateways and Cisco VG224/ATA 186 as POTS gateways. While Cisco Call Manager collects call statistics from 7900 series SCCP handsets managed by the Call Manager (number of VoIP packets, dropped frames etc.), it shows only one side of the call as it does not collect statistics from the Cisco routers (configured as H.323 gateways), the Cisco VG224 (with ports configured as H.323 gateways and as a SCCP devices) and Cisco ATA 186 (configured for SCCP).
Is the collection of these statistics possible? What needs to be done?
Thanks,
Paul

Update: Logging of QoS/Call Management Records (CMR) to Call Manager CDR database is not possible with H.323 gateways; only MGCP gateways:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_qanda_item09186a008020650a.shtml#qa4
Anyone know how to get the Cisco router gateway to log these statistics anyway using standard router logging mechanisms (e.g. syslog)?
Anyone know about calls to SCCP ports on Cisco VG224 or ATA 186?
Thanks,
Paul

E1 no voice on Cisco Call Manager version 6

Hello,
We are running Cisco Call Manager with MGCP and E1 connection to a Siemens PSTN
We have started experiencing no voice when calling to Siemens or calling from Siemens to Cisco. The call goes through but there is no ring tone and no voice when the call is answered.
Also, I noticed that MGCP fails back to our Sub sometime, but I am not sure if these issues are somehow related
How can I troubleshoot voice problems with E1?
Thank you

Hi fgasimzade,
Can you check with Siemen what channel order do they follow.
Cisco VG follows descending order for outbound calls and expect ascending for incoming calls.
You can toggle config using below commands
interface SerialX/Y/Z:15
isdn bchan-number-order {ascending | descending}.
