How often to restart UCCX services?

Hi,
Is there Cisco documentation on how often services should be restarted, or the entire cluster be restarted? The reason why I ask is that we have services running for 588 days since the deployment of our UCCX cluster. I have restarted various services here and there to resolve certain issues, but have not restarted the whole cluster and I think it's due time. I'm a little nervous about it, to be quite honest. Any insight?
Thank you very much.

Hi Sergio,
I would again stand by the fact that a reboot is not necessary until a problem has been identified and the root cause is known to be resolved by the reboot.
Well, if you ask me the procedure to reboot a cluster in a HA environment, then
(Assuming your UCCX Version is 8.x and above)
++ Reboot Node 1
++ Wait for all the services to come up. You can monitor by the CLI "utils service list".
++ Once they are STARTED, reboot node 2.
++ Wait for the all the services to come up
++ Check for the services under Cisco Unified CCX Serviceability -- Tools -- Control Center Network Services
++ Also good idea, to check the replication from Cisco Unified CCX Serviceability -- Tools -- Datastore Control Center -- Replication Servers. The status for both the nodes should be 'Connected' and 'Active'
Also, a good idea would be to use the release notes of the UCCX version that you are running on and find if there are any known issues which involved a reboot as the solution.

  • How Often to Restart an ECC 6.0 Instance?

    Hi,
    I have notice that after a few weeks the buffers start swapping a lot in ST02 in our production instance application servers.  The only way I know to fix this is to restart the instance.  1. Is there a way to clear/defragment the buffers without restarting?  2. How often should the instances be restarted?  Our plants run 24x7 so downtime is hard to come by.  
    Our buffer parameters are set according to SAP Earlywatch recommendations.
    Thank you,
    Shelby

    Hi,
    /$sync it will reset the buffer as well as number ranges too. so i recomend /$TAB instead of /$Sync.
    /$TAB will just reset the buffer without restarting the system.

  • How to manually restart a service

    systemuiserver hung up on me recently and after forcing it to quick in activity monitor, I could not figure out how to restart the service. I'm new to mac from windows, where I would just go to where the services are listen and click restart. I did try blindly using 'launchctl start systemuiserver', but it didn't find the tag systemuiserver. And i tried 'launchctl com.apple.systemuiserver' but that tag wasnt found either.
    Any ideas on how to restart a service without having to reboot?
    Thanks!

  • How often does your CF instance need to restart?

    I'm considering CF as an application solution for a critical
    department..and not having much experience with it , was wondering
    how often does the CF service need to be restarted ? hourly, daily,
    weekly, monthly?????
    i've had experiences with other app servers that at times
    could be quite annoying...and would like to get some real world
    input on the issue.
    Many thanks..

    It definitely depends on how you code and set up the site.
    I've worked at a few places where the only time we restarted the CF
    servers (or services) were when we actually switched servers. Other
    places we had scheduled maintenance windows and did the restarts
    then, sometimes they were needed while other times it was just for
    the sake of doing it.
    You should also take into consideration the OS reboots, for
    Win2k3 or 2k8 you'll sometimes need to install critical patches
    which need to restart to take effect. I don't know about UNIX or
    Solaris and the others.

  • How to stop and start (restart) portal services programmatically?

    Hi experts,
    I develop a portal service IMaintenanceService extending IService.
    The new service has some profile properties (start date, end end, etc.).
    I wrote another portal application MaintenanceManager which can change these profile properties.
    However, to activate the changes I have to restart the portal service.
    Does anyone know how I can restart the portal service IMaintenanceService from my portal application MaintenanceManager?
    Thanks for help.

    go to

    Look for the Oracle Database Service. If I remember correctly, it's something like Ora<Instance_name>.
    Hit the Restart button, it's the button with the icon that's a stop and start.

  • How often should the SMP server get restarted? Cockpit message "Restart Required!"

    How often should I restart the SAP Mobile Platform server? I have received a message in the SMP Management Cockpit that states "Restart Required!".

    Hi Darrel,
    Batish is right there is no need to restart server unless you change specific settings that need a restart. Ex. cache settings. You can find an "i" symbol next to these fields which need a restart if you change these values.
    Also server restart is needed if you change any config files ex. admin-role-mapping.xml.
    Are you able to reproduce this issue. Could you give a screen shot of this issue. What is the version of server?

  • [solved...] How to REstart a service?

    I'd like to "RE"start a service; which means that i want to stop and start a service only if it was running, but If i do systemctl restart myservice, systemd will start it even if it was stopped.
    Also, systemctl report a successful status in stopping an already stopped service, try by yourself!
    TravelMate koko # systemctl stop sshd ; echo $?
    0
    TravelMate koko # systemctl stop sshd ; echo $?
    0
    ...i dont think this is right at all, it is not possible to stop a stopped thing, so it should return error imho.
    Anyway, is there a simple way of REstarting a service only if it was running?
    Thanks.

    ANOKNUSA wrote:An exit code of '0' just means the command didn't run into any "failure" conditions. It can mean either that the process succeeded, or that the process had nothing to do. You'd get a non-zero return if you tried to start or stop a non-existent service, and systemd would spit out an error message.
    Unfortunately, it is not; at least in an unconsistent systemd world.
    Indeed, i managed to solve the issue this way:
    systemctl status sshd && systemctl restart sshd
    Also see:
    # systemctl stop sshd ; systemctl status sshd ; echo $?
    ● sshd.service - OpenSSH Daemon
    Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/sshd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

    Main PID: 3016 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
    3
    To summarize, if the service is stopped:
    systemctl status returns a non zero code.
    systemctl stop returns a zero code.
    As for your restarting issue, systemd's behavior seems logical.
    It seems the opposite to me.
    Marking as solved, but still...

  • How often do YOU reset your Home Hub, please?

    I have Infinity and Home Hub 3.0 type B.
    I posted a few weeks ago about my wireless printer going off-line. To cut a very long story short, the problem was my Home Hub. After resetting it, as someone here advised, my printer worked OK.
    The same thing happened last week so out came the giant paperclip and I reset my Home Hub = worked.
    I'm having problems connecting to a site - on both my IE8/XP and Win7/IE11 PCs - but a friend gets through OK.
    So it's not the site, nor IE8.
    My Win7 laptop suggested that I run HP Network Check, which I did. It's fixed a problem - it had to "purge my DNS Resolver cache" - sounds painful - but says I must reset my router.
    Does anyone else with a Home Hub 3 have to reset it weekly? What affects the frequency of resetting?
    Thanks in anticipation!

    I use an HH3, supplied when I joined BT Internet from Virgin due to appalling service from them. 
    When using a Netgear or TP-Link router/modem our connection was always 'breaking' and being reset - almost every night!  With the HH3 that doesn't happen so often and the throughput is generally better (despite a slower sync speed being reported!). Reverting to the other router/modems gives the same unreliable service as before.  Even trying a different Billion router/modem gives the same old interuptions, etc.  So I suspect the way the BT Internet system is set up favours the HH range but they appear to have fundemental design problems too.
    As for how often I have to do a soft restart, or power cycle, depends on how the exchange equipment decides to reset the connection. It can go for a couple of weeks without a change but then decide to make changes most nights (during the night and not the daytime for some strange reason). When it makes the changes, it always reverts to a much slower sync and throughput with often enormously high noise margins (the ideal for us is about 8 dB but it usually resets to 15-18 dB!). So then a reset is called for and afterwards we generally get fair to good results but rarely anything outstanding. Our line length is a serious limiting factor and we'd love to be able to get ADSL2+ but that is not planned and we'll have to wait for the BDUK Intervention plans to find out if we'll ever get fibre in the area.
    And as for 'technical support', as an experienced electronics engineer (now retired after 50 years in the business) I have to cry!  They don't know what they are talking about at all, but read from a script that does not cater for many actual problems. 

  • How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

    How often does Firefox Sync back-up data? I see there is no preference selection allowing you to change the pre-set frequency (whatever that interval may be).

    However, the sync action only triggers every 60-minute and there is no user-configurable option provided. Although one can put a Sync icon onto the toolbar for easier access, it is still far from practical needs.
    To unlock this limitation, do the following:
    1) Type “about:config” at the address bar
    2) Search for “services.sync.syncInterval”
    3) Change the value from 3600000 (milliseconds = 3600 seconds = 60 minutes) to any value (in millisecond) of your choice
    4) Close and restart Firefox
    The Sync action will now trigger at the interval you just set.
