CUCME and CUCM Licensing

I would like to know how to register the licenses ordered for IP Phones to be registered and uploaded
in to CUCME and CUCM.
I searched a lot of documents but cant find out a proper answer. Could someone help me out on this issue, as I am having 2 projects, 1 with CUCME and 1 with CUCM. The customer have ordered for Licenses, but i dont know how to register it.
Please help

No, the whole process really is what I've written above. The license file is purchasesd from Cisco, but once you have that file there is no further involvement with Cisco, it's all done on the CUCM.
You license the CUCM to accept a certain number of devices, and then as  you add phones to the CUCM the license totals will go down.
The licenses are in units. So say you apply a license file that contains 1000 units. If you look in the License Calculator, it will tell you how many units each type of phone would use up.
Every time you add a phone (or sometimes a feature such as Mobility) it will use up a certain number of units as shown in the Calculator, and if you ever remove that phone later (say because it needs replaced because of a fault or for a newer model), the units are returned. So for example, a Cisco 7945 IP phone takes up 4 units each, whereas a 7975 uses up 5 units each.
Once you run out of units it won't let you add any more phones until you either remove some devices to get the units back, or you apply more units.

  • Cucme and cucm with aim-cue

    Hi all, I just want to know if AIM-CUE can work with cucme and cucm 8.0?
    Because based on this matrix Cisco Unity Express Compatibility Matrix [Cisco Unity Express] - Cisco Systems
    It says that it is supported, but CUE (AIM-CUE Module) should have a version of 7.2 or 7.3 to support cucme 8.x and cucm 8.x
    Can anyone confirm this because aim-cue is the cheapest among the CUE cisco offers. Thanks!

    That's what I read, having cue 7.2 or 7.3 will let you use cucme/cucm 8.x
    When you say "there will not be any new firmware release on the old aim-cue", Does that mean that cue version 7.3 will be the last firmware version to be released on the old aim-cue that will support cucme/cucm 8.x? Future versions of cucme/cucm (version 9) will not be supported by the old aim-cue?

  • What licenses do I need for CUCM and CME

    Hi Experts,
    I am a newbie to Cisco IP telephony and request your guidance.
    My boss has asked me to order some 7942 phones for a CUCM based site and some 7942 phones for a CME based site.
    For CUCM 9, I understand that we need an enhanced user licenses on CUCM side.
    For the IP phone, I see 2 part numbers and am confused.
    CP-7942G - Cisco Unified IP Phone 7942G
    CP-7942G-CH1 - Cisco Unified IP Phone 7942G, for Channels, with one station user license
    What is the station user license mentioned in the part number CP-7942G-CH1 ? Is it the same as the enhanced user licenses? Assuming i am ordering enhanced user licenses, what should I order CP-7942G or CP-7942G-CH1?
    I also see a part number SW-CCM-UL-7942= ? What is this part? is it needed?
    And what do I need for CME?
    Is FL-CME-SRST-10 enough for the CME?
    What is the part number for the phones? Is it CP-7942G or CP-7942G-CCME?
    I also see another part number "SW-CCME-UL-7942="? What is it? And is it really needed?
    I heard that Cisco simplified Licensing from version 9. At least it doesn't look simple to me :( 
    Can you please help me, Experts?
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Hi without knowing your business goals, current network, etc here is some feedback.
    Depending on your design, if the sites are connected via a reliable WAN you could run the branch site as SRST and not CME, this way you get a rich feature set of the centralised call manager and simplify licenses, etc.
    Anyway, you need to size your CUCME (or SRST) correctly as each Cisco router  hardware platform has a maximum supported handsets. If you have a SIP provider new purchased ISRs now come with 10 CUBE licenses other wise you will need something else such as a VIC for dial tone.
    For instance the following is a router that comes with 25 CME 
    C2901-CME-SRST/K9        
    2901 Voice Bundle w/PVDM3-16,FL-CME-SRST-25,UC Lic,FL-CUBE10
    You can add CP-7942G-CCME which is the physical phone and license for CME
    Use CP-7942G= for the Call Manager Deployment as you will get UCL Enh or CUWL for the user side
    If you have existing routers you will need to obtain upgrade licenses for voice/CME add DSPs if needed for conferencing, media termination, etc, CUBE or voice cards and you can add the phones.
    Router handset capacities see Table 7

  • CUCM Licensing/ordering and demo licenses

    Hello,
    I am trying to setup a lab with CUCM and trying to figure out the process to place an order for CUCM. I know that you need DLU licneses for each phone, however do I need to buy a base license in addition to that? How does it work?
    Also, does CUCM come with a demo license which I can use for my lab without ordering any additional licenses??
    What are my options?
    I alos tried to search the part/product numbers for CUCM ordering but was not able to find them on Cisco site. I am interested in buying CUCM 7.x.
    Thank you.

    Hi there,
    The Part# you would be looking for is;
    CM7.1-K9-LAB
    SW Unified CM 7.1 Appliance, 100 DLUs, Lab System Only
    This comes with licensing for 2 Nodes, Software (DVD's) and 100 DLU's which
    is good for approx. 20 phones I believe the End of Sale for this is June of this year.
    Cheers!

  • BE 5K CUCM and CUC Mac-Address registering license

    Hi All,
    I am really confused for registering CUC license to which mac-address. (CUCM or CUC)
    I have CUCM be 5k on Server 7828 both CUCM and CUC is installed on same server. For CUCM i got the mac address from show status, but how about registering the license to CUC it should be registered on same CUCM Mac address or CUC has different mac-address.
    I uploaded the licenses in CUCM and need to upload the license in CUC.
    Thank you all in advance.
    Best Regards,

      MAC address changes should NOT effect the BI 4 server in any way, everything binds to the Server Name & IP Address.

  • Can not foward into voicemail from outside call on CUE and CUCM 8.6

    Dear Team,
    I have CUE Utility and CUCM 8.6.
    I can call from local, if user busy or go out office then call will foward to voice mail.It is ok.
    But when i call from outside to my phone(direct line), then call can not foward to voice mail on CUE.
    Please help me some solution.
    Thanks.

    Hi nam,
    A couple of things to check. Have you set the Forward Busy/No Answer "External"
    on the DN config page in CUCM?
    Are the calls coming in using a codec other than g.711?
    Best Practices for Deploying Cisco Unity Express
    • Each mailbox can be associated with a primary extension number and a primary E.164 number.
    Typically, this number is the direct-inward-dial (DID) number that PSTN callers use. If the primary
    E.164 number is configured to any other number, use Cisco IOS translation patterns to match either
    the primary extension number or primary E.164 number so that the correct mailbox can be reached
    during SRST mode.
    • Each Cisco Unity Express site must be associated with a CTI route point for voicemail and one for
    AA (if licensed and purchased), and you must configure the same number of CTI route points as
    Cisco Unity Express ports licensed. Ensure that the number of sites with Cisco Unity Express does
    not exceed the CTI scalability guidelines presented in the chapter on Call Processing, page 8-1.
    • Cisco Unity Express is associated with a JTAPI user on Cisco Unified CallManager. Although a
    single JTAPI user can be associated with multiple Cisco Unity Expresses in a system, Cisco
    recommends associating each dedicated JTAPI user in Cisco Unified CallManager with a single
    Cisco Unity Express.
    • Calls into Cisco Unity Express use G.711 only. Cisco recommends using a local transcoder to
    convert the G.729 calls traversing the WAN into G.711 calls. You can configure Cisco Unified
    CallManager regions with the G.711 voice codec for intra-region calls and the G.729 voice codec
    for inter-region calls.
    • If transcoding facilities are not available at the Cisco Unity Express site, provision enough
    bandwidth for the required number of G.711 voicemail calls over the WAN. Configure the Cisco
    Unified CallManager regions with the G.711 voice codec for calls between the IP phones and Cisco
    Unity Express devices (CTI ports and CTI route points).
    • The CTI ports and CTI route points can be defined in specific locations. Cisco recommends using
    location-based call admission control between Cisco Unified CallManager and Cisco Unity Express.
    RSVP may also be used.

  • Unity Express 7.4.1 and CUCM 8.5.1

    Hi,
    I looked in Compatibility Matrix for Unity Express and found that Unity Express 7.4.1 and Callmanager 8.5.1 wll work together.
    Now I upgraded Unity Express to version 7.4.1. I read the CTI-ports via Unity Web GUI from CUCM and it found right the ports.
    But in CUCM the ports doesnt register with unity express.
    What could I do to register the ports? The jtapi user already associated with the ports and I also reset the password t both systems.
    Is there a trace I could switch on for port registration?

    meanwhile i found why not register, at the CTI are securty profile configured. after remove it, the ports register but still doesnt work:

  • Upgrade from CUCM and Unity 3.x to CUCM Business Edition 8.5

    I'm trying to find the recommended upgrade path from CUCM 3.x and Unity to 3.x to a single CUCM Business Edition 8.5 server.  As far as I can see there is no migration strategy from call manager cluster environment to a Business Edition environment.  If there isn't has anyone done this and if so what steps did you take.  As it stands right now I'm thinking of building it fresh but I would think there would be some more efficient way to do it.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Philippe
    Not necessarily. If you're going to BE6K, then there should be a path to upgrade each of your applications from their current versions. As BE6K implements CUCM and CUC as separate VMs, you should simply be able to follow the well documented mechanisms to upgrade these platforms.
    If you're going from Unity to CUC (any versions), then you'll need to use COBRAS for this available form the unitytools web site.
    The method I've used for for CUCM upgrades (7.1(5) and higher).
    1. Build CUCM under VMware at the same release as your physical appliance with same IP address and hostname (obviously put this on an isolation VLAN).
    2. DRS backup current PUB and DRS restore onto new VM.
    3. Upgrade new VM PUB to whichever release you want to get to following standard upgrade instructions. Note you may need to get a temporary V7 license from Cisco for this, otherwise you may not be able to upgrade (you'll receive a message saying upgrades not allowed in grace license period).
    4. Rehost existing CUCM licenses. If you're going to V9, carefully check your license status before doing the upgrade. There's a few gotachs here, one recent one is that analog devices attached to VG2XX gateways now consume licenses whereas they didn't in earlier versions of CUCM.
    If you're going to BE5K then it will be a manual process start to finish using BAT for CUCM, although COBRAS should work for Unity to CUC.

  • When do the CTI ports between CUCM and UCCX get created

    Hi All,
    I am trying to work out when the CTI ports between CUCM and UCCX get created.
    Do they get created during the post installtion wizzard when you selectthe number of HR licenses or do you need to manually create the CTI ports after the post installation wizzard.
    Many thanks for any help
    Regards

    In new versions (since 4.x) UCCX creates the CTI route points on Call Manager when a trigger is added on UCCX side.
    When you add a Call Control Group on UCCX side, that process creates all the CTI ports in CUCM automatically or updates the existing ones if you change settings for the call control group.

  • ELM 9.1 and CUCM 9.1 Registration Conflict

    Hi,
    Have a standalone ELM server and a CUCM 9.1.1a cluster registering to it that has been working fine for a few months.
    A few days ago the CPU was pegging on the ELM server (hostagt process) and I could not restart that process individually, and I did a graceful restart of the ELM server (utils system restart) and it came back up and everything was fine.
    Now a few days later, I get alert from CUCM that the ELM sync has not worked for past 7 days and there are 53 days remaining.
    On the ELM server, under Product Instancxes the CUCM has a Registration Conflict error and says it is managed by another ELM server. There is only one ELM server. The CUCM license page says it is managed by this ELM server that is complaining.
    I've restarrted the ELM server with no change, and I tried to restart the ELM Client on the CUCM server without change.
    Do I need to delete the CUCM product instance from the ELM server and add it back?
    Is there something hung up on the CUCM server and I need to restart other services on it?  I am not seeing much in the logs on either server.
    Both ELM and CUCM are version 9.1.1a.
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    Could be this perhaps;
    Symptom: Product Instance registration fails with an error that the product instance is already managed by ELM.
    Resolution: Log into the CLI of the product you are trying to add, and run the command license client reset registration which will clear its previous register with ELM.

  • CUCME + CUE port license

    Do you need a port license in integrating CUCME and CUE?  

    Hi Ramon,
    Yes you would require Port licenses for this integration (increments of 2)
    The  following types of licenses are available:
    •Mailboxes (available only in increments of five)
    •Ports (available only in increments of two)
    •IVR (available only in increments of two)
    •TimeCardView users (available only in increments of one)
    The corresponding SKUs for these licenses are:
    •FL-CUE-MBX-5
    •FL-CUE-PORT-2
    •FL-CUE-IVR-2
    •FL-TCV-USER-1
    To  determine the total quantity of licenses you need, multiply the  incremental quantity from the name of the CSL license with the explicit  quantity of increments that you want to purchase. For instance,  FL-CUE-MBX-5 represents an incremental quantity of five mailboxes. If  you select an explicit quantity of four for the FL-CUE-MBX-5 feature,  the total quantity will be five times four, or 20.

    Hi,
    I ran into recent problem synchronizing CUCM 8.6.2(b) into CTSman 1.9.1
    CTSMan is getting an Error message: 502407
    Details

    I researched this earlier in CTSman admin guides, and this error points to CUCM CTI Manager service to be restarted.  I did restart this as well as other services, including CUCM hardware itself and, but in vain.
    Among other things, i followed the CUCM/CTSman guides when bringing CUCM into CTSman to: created an application user account within CUCM and allocate a proper permissions/user groups etc... it was done. 
    Among other things there are other servers like Exchange being synchronized with it ( had problems with it earlier that dealt with certificates, it was corrected.).
    Can anyone help with this issue.
    Responses will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Thanks Manish again for this.
    I did get few MediaReosurceListExhausted events from RTMT alerts but was not paying much attention to them. Location bandwidth settings have been checked and increased a bit for sites which were repeatedly getting these events. I will monitor to see if that reduces these alerts. Could you please advise how I can verify it is hitting the maximum limit?
    I have also raised this with Cisco TAC and some cores were found on the CUC subscriber server. We seemed to have run into a bug according to Cisco TAC as in here https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCug61581/?reffering_site=dumpcr and both CUC servers have been upgraded to 8_6_2_24901_1. It has fixed cores and we are now monitoring the voicemail service for few days to see if it will reoccur.

  • Jabber on Android and CUCM 8.6.2

    Hello.
    We are trying to use jabber on a galaxy android tablet, but we can't register client to CUCM 8.6.2.
    I've followed this guide:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_configuration_example09186a0080bb5104.shtml
    for cucm configuration, I've installed cop files, restarted publisher and subscriber, and also tomcat service.
    When we start jabber on galaxy tablet, we insert the two parameters needed (ip address of cucm and device name), but after a while it return an error message that say us to control configuration.
    Tablet is connected to wifi network and can reach CUCM via ping or web page.
    Thanks for any suggestion.
    Daniele

    Hi
    Have you added the 'Dual mode for Android' device to CUCM? If so, perhaps screen grab your config.
    Also unless you have other wireless voice devices already, verify that your wireless LAN can route to the CUCMs and can access TFTP and other ports on that subnet.

  • Configure Jabber for Mac with local CUCM and WebEx Connect

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone has been able to configure the Jabber for Mac 8.6.2 client to use the WebEx Connect presence server with a local CUCM and Unity Connection servers. The preferences accounts tab does not show or allow the addition of the voice services. I have added from a working local CUCM preferences plist file what I believe are the correct entries however I still cannot see the accounts on the preferences tab. We currently do not have a local cisco presence server hence the requirement to trial the WebEx Connect server as I can't get past the first configuration step without it.
    regards
        paul

    Hi - I have done this via the admin portal but still cannot get the Jabber client for Mac to register for voice.  The Windows version works fine for the same user and CUCM device.   Are there any other settings that need to be enabled specific to the Mac client?

  • Is there a way to script finding users in Unity and CUCM

    I currently get a list once a month of all users who no longer work for our company. As we roll out more VOIP installs the list grows and the old way of doing things needs to change. Currently I search one by one through CUCM and Unity to see if the user is assigned a phone. I would like to be able to pull a list of all users from both Unity and CUCM put that into a spread sheet and then compare my attrition spread sheet to that spread sheet therby speeding up the process of determining which users might be assigned a phone.
    Note company hires warehouse workers and they come and go frequently and are not assigned phones but, they along with users with phones are all dumped into a spread sheet so I have no way of know who is who.
    1. I have a spread sheet with names on it both people with and without phones
    2. I would like to download a list so I can compare the two and determine which ones have phones
    I am open to other ideas and suggestions to make the laborious task easier.
    Thank You in advance

    Seems easy enough on the face of it - unless there's something I'm not getting - are you talking Unity or Unity Connection (folks often just say "Unity" as shorthand for either) - if you're dealing with Unity then you'll have to dance with ODBC which isnt' the end of the world but doing it from "script" is going to be a challange.  If you're talking about Unity Connection you can also use ODBC but you have the option for an HTTP REST search for users by name.
    So it's just a matter of searching by name and getting matches back (names are not guranteed to be unique of course, assuming you mean name as first/last/display name and not alias).  It can kick out all matches I suppose and include the extension number.  Unity and Unity connecton _always_ have extension numbers (it's required) so I'm unsure what someone "without a phone" would look like in Unity/Connection - that's a bit odd - how do they check messages?  And without a phone why do they have a voice mail account?
