Cisco Unified Department Attendant Console Server 8.6.1.9 Directory Issue

Hi guys i have an issue in My CUDAC, I already installed the Attendant Console Client on the operator´s pc and when i try to find an user by it´s Last Name, First Name or Number extension i can´t find it, and on the Directory Area i can´t see the phones. The CUDAC 8.6.1.9 is on w2008 server SP2 with ISS, NETFRAMEWORK 3.5, SQL EXPRESS. I have a CCM 8.0.3 and i don´t have presence server. The question is must i install a presence server? and what can cause the directory issue?; i noticed when i make a search request on the directory area, there is a message at the bottom of the Attendant Console Operator wich says "Database Searching" but doesn´t display nothing.
Please if someone knows about this issue let me now.

Hello Juan
I haven't got in front of me but can if you look on the server for the directory sync settings I beleive you can sync on partition and or department. Make the partition search to "none" and then in the Department field you enter the value that you have entered in the "end user" department field on cucm. They must match as CUDAC looks for the value you have entered in the Department field in the cucm end user menu
I am having trouble with the presence side as well. It was working but after a reboot it has stopped working. All the phones in the directory have a cross, By the way you don't need a presence server for this.
Thanks
Feisal

Cisco Unified Enterprise Attended Console License issue

Hi Guys,
We have a CUEAC 8.6.2. It was having some issues and we restarted the server. After the restart when I log into webadmin the
system configuration tab is missing. I think this is because of the license. I got the license file and when I try to apply the same it says invalid license or registration code. It looks like the registration code in there is wrong and when I try to change it it does not allow me to make any changes to it. Any ideas how can I change the registration code ?
Thanks Guys

Hi,
Regsitration code is one time activity after u install application.
If you do any of the following you must re-license the software with a new registration code:
• Reinstall the operating system on the same hardware
• Install a different operating system on the same hardware
• Add or remove certain hardware (such as an NIC card)
• Change the machine name
• Perform a major upgrade
http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucmac/cuacs/10_5_1/install_admin_guide/CUACS1051GUIDE.pdf
So, try changing the machine name on same HW to get new Regsitration code.This is what I think.
regds,

Unified Business Attendant Console not syncing user directory

I have a customer that has CallManager 8.6.1 along with the Unified Business Attendant Console 8.6.1.9. They are not syncing their user directory with LDAP. All end users are put in manually via the CCMAdmin page. This system has been in place since January. In the past few months, around eight or so new users have been added to call manager, but they were not showing up int the attendant console. I tried everything from restarting services to eventually restarting the server and the new users finally showed up. I thought the reboot had fixed the issue, however I had them add a new user to call manager and even after waiting a few hours the new user did not show up. This is my first time dealing with the attendant console server so any help would be appreciated.

Make sure you have setup a schedule in the WebAdmin for the sync to run, I normally set a schedule of running this Every 1 day at 02:00, this is when the sync will be done and the new users will show.
Restarting the server is forcing a new sync, this should not be needed if the schedule is configured correctly.

Problem with Cisco Bars after Database Republish ("Could not find Cisco Unified database on this server")

OS Version: 2000.4.3a
OS Service Release: 2000.4.5bSR21
OS Upgrade: 2000.4.5a
Bars Version: 4.0.15000
CUCM Version: 4.2(3)sr4b
During the upgrade process of our CUCM 4.2(3) to version CUCM 4.2(3)sr4b the database replication between our 2 servers (1x pub, 1x sub) failed. After fixing this via dbhelper tool (everthing´s green and smiling again) service seemed to be ok.
But now Cisco Bars does not work anymore. The backup process of the publisher fails with "Error=[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL-Server connection." So it looks like some kind of database setting for bars is misconfigured after the republishing process.
Yesterday I tried to reinstall BARS (now in the newest version 4.0.150000), but the same error message occured. Now I get the message "Could not find Cisco Unified database on this server" when I try to configure the Backup source within BARS.
Curiously the backup of our second CCM (sub) works as expected (but without CDR and TFTP Data). The "BackAdmin" User exists and is not locked (and wasn´t changed manually at all).
I am runnig out of ideas... :-(
Any hint or idea on how to fix this is kindly appreciated
best regards
Michael

Mike,
I don't have anything definitive here but I am wondering if there is a discrepency between the database names. In SQL Enterprise Manager, you can go to the Publisher and see what the current database name is. It will be the one being replicated and will take the form of CCM0300 or CCM0301 or CCM0302. You should see more than one. Anyway, take note of the name.
Then on the Publisher launch regedit and go to HKLM\Software\Cisco Systems, Inc.\DBL\
Look at the values for DBConnection0 and DBConnection1.
It will be something like DSN=CiscoCallManager;Server=;DATABASE=;Trusted_Connection=yes
Does the in the DSN match what you expect?
Also, going to back to SQL Enterprise Manager, check out the permissions on the database (Right Click->Properties, go to Permissions tab).
Another thing to check if you think it is permissions related is the AdminUtility.exe (c:\program files\cisco\bin\). This can be used to resync system account passwords.
TBH, I am just shooting in the dark here but these are things I would check.
Regards,
Bill

Low attendant console server heartbeat rate warning

hi
In the call manager real time monitoring tool i see this message "Low attendant console server heartbeat rate warning"..and it is there continously..so what i need to do now can anyone please help on this
Karthik

1st step is to restart the AC service on the servers. If you still have low heartbeat, restart the CTI service as well. (Personally, I would just restart both anyway but you can try one at a time to see if it clears up). From there, you'll need to likely relaunch any AC consoles (you should do this after step 1 anyway). Then take a look. If you still have an issue, we'd have to take it from there.

Unified Communications Attendant console: queue does not show in the client

Hello,
I have Cisco Unified Attendant Console - Department Edition 9.1.1.10 in conjunction with CUCM 9.1.1.
My problem is that when I login with the operator account to the client the queue does not show up as expected.
I have configured the queue, synchronized with CUCM, i can see it in CUCM under device/CTI route point, i have associated the queue to the operator in user configuration queue association.
but when i login as the opeartor to the client i can not see it.
any help is apreciated.
thanks

Hi,
This is working correctly, as you can only associated a single queue (department), this is not displayed in the operator console client.
You only see the queue list in Business, Enterprise or Premium Edition.

Deploying Cisco Unified CM Assistant Console in CM 8.5

Our business recently upgraded to Cisco Unified CM 8.5. I discovered Assistant Console in the Applications - Plugins. I have reviewed some of the documentation, but have a few questions.
1. Where do I find the complete documentation for deploying this application? I basically wanted to set up the necessary structure in CM, so I can install the application on my workstation and play with the software to see if the functionality is appropriate for our business.
2. In CM, System - Service Parameters - Server - Service: Cisco IP Manager Assistant (Active), what Server be defined as Primary vs. Backup?
Cisco IPMA Server (Primary) IP Address
Cisco IPMA Server (Backup) IP Address
Our VoIP environment is set up as a cluster with (1) Publisher, (1) Subscriber and (1) Virtual Server. I believe I understand that the Subscriber would be the correct Server to assign as the Primary IPMA server, because it has less work to do and then assign the Publisher as the Backup IPMA server. Would this be correct?
2. Cisco documentation refers to 7940/7941/7960/7961/7970/7971 phones to be programmed for this solution, but what about 7942 phones? I would hope that they to can be used for the Assistant console?
3. Cisco documentation shows that JRE 1.4.2_05 needs to be installed. Will a current version of Java work as well or do I specifically need this version?
Please supply any other info that would be helpful for this implementation.

Susan,
Save yourself some time and don't bother with this feature, use shared lines instead as you will same yourself from painful config/support and end user from frustration. I've deployed it at few customers back few years ago (no improvements have been made to this feature for some time) and they will hated it and ripped it out. Cisco should have gotten rid of this app instead of AC.
HTH,

Hardware Needed for Cisco 2911 as a console server

Hi,
We need to setup Cisco 2911 router as a console server for OOB (Out of band) connectivity to console of each DC device (upto 20 devices) Could someone please respond to the following questions we had:
1. What interface module can we install on the 2911 ISR for this purpose?
2. What cable (part number please) will go to the that 2911-ISR interface slot and then we can connect the consoel ports of out network devices to that cable.
It needs to be something similar to the cisco octal cable which I know we used for Cisco 2500 series for console purposes to other devices. But not sure about Cisco 2911.
I would highly appreciate your information and help.
Thanks
Lovleen

You would need an interface providing asynchronous serial ports. Something like the HWIC-8A or the HWIC-16A. Needing 20 ports you will most likely use one of each type (having then 24 ports).
The cable to connect to the HWIC is the CAB-HD8-ASYNC. If you attach routers and switches console ports directly to the RJ45 plugs everything is fine. If you have other types of serial ports to serve (DB-9 or DB-25) then you need the according adapters. I don't know if they have product numbers...

Cisco Call Manager Attendant Console error

When I try to transfer an incoming call to a mobile phone with this software I can't do it.
What's happening?.

Hi Carlos,
A couple of things to check;
1. Is this happening only to the AC user, or all phones?
2. If this is happening to random phones it is probably a CSS issue.
3. If this is happening to all phones perhaps you have "Block external call transfer" set to true. Have a look at the following doc;
Setting the Block OffNet to OffNet Transfer Service Parameter
The Cisco CallManager clusterwide service parameter Block OffNet to OffNet Transfer allows administrators to prevent users from transferring external calls to another external number. This parameter specifies values as True or False. Setting the parameter to True blocks external calls from being transferred to another external device. The default value specifies False. You modify the Block OffNet to OffNet Transfer service parameter by using the Service Parameters Configuration window.
When a user tries to transfer a call on an OffNet gateway or trunk when the service parameter Block OffNet to OffNet Transfer is set to True, a message displays on the user phone to indicate that the call cannot be transferred.
Migration from Cisco CallManager release 3.3(4) to Release 4.1
To block the transfer of external calls to external devices in release 3.3(4), the system uses service parameter Block External to External Transfer. The value of this parameter (True or False) will migrate to the new service parameter, Block OffNet to OffNet Transfer, when upgrade to release 4.1 occurs.
From this doc for CCM 4.1.3;

Cisco unified Attendant Console reports

Hi,
We have a customer with Cisco Unified Enterprise Attendant Console 8.5.1.5 interested in operator reports. They have more than one operator per queue. There is a report with attended operator calls but no abandoned. Is there any way to get the abandoned calls by operator (not by queue)?
Thanks in advance
Laura

Hi Laura,
As the calls route through the queues this where calls are abandoned, calls are not routed directly to the operators phone hence why there is no report for this against a user.

Amount of Attendant Console users

Hi, we're in the process of upgrading CUCM from 7.1.5 to 8. By doing this we're losing the free AC. We're trying to get a firm number of AC users so we know how many licenses we need to buy. Is there a way to see how many AC users we have? I went to the applications uers, selected the AC group but we have close to 60 controlled devices. This number is no where near accurate.

You can find the list of users under the Application -> Cisco Unified CM Attendant Console -> Cisco Unified CM Attendant Console User menu in call manager. Please note this may not reflect the current number of active users being used, so remember to filter out what old users you may have.

Hi
We Have Cisco attendant console 8.x at site .
As per user they are

Cisco Attendant Console

Hi
We are using UCM version 10.5.1. Can someone guide me on how to add attendant console users? That is, need to provide access to Cisco Attendant console to 2 new users.
Thanks for the assistance.
Rajeswari

Hi Aaron,
Greetings!
Thank you very much for your quick response. Yes. I am able to login to Attendant Console server via https://ipaddress/webadmin.
The 2 new users are already added in the CUCM. In Attendant Console webpage, I presume I need to click on "User Configuration"=> Operator Management and add the new user. Once this is done, I guess we need to select the appropriate queue while configuring the operator profile. Am I right.
Thanks again for the clarification.

Rights required to open attendant console client

I'm running attendant console 1.4.1.11 with CCM 4.1(3)sr3c. I can download the attendant console client to an XP machine and run the appplication as long as the user has admin or power user rights. I can't run the app when the user is given only user rights. Is this appropriate behavior for the attendant console client? I don't want to give my receptionists admin rights if I can avoid it.

I handle this by giving the Authenticated Users group full access to the C:\program Files\Cisco\Call Manager Attendant Console folder. The logged in user just needs to be able to read and write to this folder.
Hope this helps. If so, please rate the post.

Recommend a good console server vendor

Hello all
I'm searching for a good console server and was hoping anyone of you had a good tip.
I really want the console server to supports the use of straight cat5e cables between the cisco equipment and the console server.
I dont want to use roll-over/adapters for each machine.
I've only found the Digi Passport equipment that can do this.
(http://www.digi.com/products/consoleservers/digipassport.jsp)
Anyone got experiance with these kind of products?
Thank you

Hi R. Daniel Paddock, and Welcome to Discussions!
The only other site I know of off of the top of my head is Wegener Media. They have a Slot Loading combo drive for $149. That's still a lot of money, IMO.
Optical drives are a risky thing to buy secondhand off a place like eBay, so it may be harder to find a cheaper alternative.
