Howto simulate a PSTN

Hello,
is it possible to simulate a PSTN with tree routers (e.g. 2x 1841, 2821)? Each is equipped with an CTRLR E1 Module (VWIC2-2MFT-G703). Both routers are conntect with an special cross cable to get the interface active.
!!! This should become a test envoirement !!!
Now I would like to connect a CUCM to the first 1841 an a second CUCM to the other 1841. The test setup should look like this:
CUCM#1 ------- Fa0/0     1841     E1 ------- E1     2821     E1 ------- E1     1841     Fa0/0 ------- CUCM#2
If it would work, I would like to call form CUCM#1 CUCM#2.
So here are my questions:
Would it work?
Can I define number pool by own?
Has anybody build something like this?
How have I to configure it?
In my mind, I remember this setup in the Cisco CIPT courses.
Kind regards Kai

You can simulate a voice PRI on a 2600 as long as you have DSP resources. If you want to make voice calls through it, the easiest way is to use something like a NM-2V card with VIC-2FXS , the AIM-VOICE-30 DSP card and a VWIC-1MFT-T1 card.
The following config would work -
isdn switch-type primary-ni
network-clock-participate wic 0
network-clock-select 1 t1 0/0
controller t1 0/0
pri-group timeslots 1-24
interface serial 0/0:23
isdn switch-type primary-ni
isdn incoming-voice voice
isdn protocol-emulate network
dial-peer voice 1 pots
incoming called-number .
port 0/0:23
direct-inward-dial
dial-peer voice 2 pots
description - calls to PRI
destination-pattern 1...
port 0/0:23
prefix 1
dial-peer voice 3 pots
description - calls to FXS ports
destination-pattern 2...
port 1/0/0
we use these configs all the time in the lab as PBX simulators . You need a T1 cross over cable to bring up the interface -
1 ---- 4
2 ---- 5
4 ---- 1
5 ---- 2

  • [java.lang.Process] Howto simulate ENTER ?

    Hi there!
    I need to control an interactive command-line tool from java (smbclient) and for this task I use Process with getOutputStream().
    However I want to send commands to the native-program like: Process.getOutputStream.write("exit\n".getBytes()) but it simply does not work :-(
    I think the native programs does not recognize the "\n" as <ENTER> .
    Any ideas howto solve this problem?
    Thanks you in advance, Clemens Eisserer

  • Media Termination points and media paths with CUCM

    Hi all,
    I could really use some help regarding this topic. Please allow me to explain the situation.
    Ok we have some endpoints that are not Cisco but cisco have developed cop files for CUCM and they are seen as a cisco device and register the same as any other phone. This isn't anything to do with the problem, but I want to make this clear. These are actually dealerboards for trading and register cisco lines the same as any other cisco telephone.
    Ok so here is the story;
    We have a CUCM cluster in London and a local gateway for local PSTN breakout. There are endpoints that are in Dubai and the register to the CUCM cluster in London. Dubai have their own MGCP gateway for local breakout to PSTN.
    Here is the problem;
    When a Dubai endpoint makes a call to a PSTN number in dubain there RTP is send from the endpoint, back to the London CUCM, the London CUCM then points the RTP at the gateway in Dubai. This is using a lot of bandwidth and I am not clear on how to change this so the endpoints send media directly to their MGCP gatway.
    In my lab I have sent up 2 CUCM's connected by E1 via MGCP gateways, this is to simulate the PSTN network. I can see that on CUCM 7 this is not the case and media is sent directly to the MGCP gateway, on CUCM 8 media is sent via the CUCM to the MGCP gateway. I have since then added in a software MTP on the MGCP gateway for CUCM 8 and now everything hits the gateway as I have specified MTP is required on the phones profile. This was good but even when I make an internal call, everything hits the MTP instead of using IP-IP direct medial.
    Please can someone advise what I need to do or if this type of behaviour is expected.
    Many thanks,
    Joe

    Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Linux Ubuntu 11.10 howto
    h2. Purpose
    This document outlines instructions how to install Oracle XE under Ubuntu 11.10.
    Ubuntu or Debian based Linux is not on the list of supported operation systems according to the Oracle documentation at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18802/toc.htm. You may want to consider virtualization software like Oracle Virtualbox and install Oracle Enterprise Linux as a free and professional alternative to installing XE under Ubuntu. You can also download pre-build virtual machines that include Oracle XE. You can browse http://otn.oracle.com/community/developer-vm for more information.

    h2. 1) Install Linux Ubuntu
    The following assumes you have installed Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop Edition for AMD 64-bit, or upgraded from a previous version. Keep in mind that Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition is only available for 64-bit architecture. It is not necessarily a requirement, but I would not bother to install Oracle 11gR2 XE on a system with less than 2 GB of RAM installed. You can download Ubuntu for free at: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu and install it using the default settings provided.
    You can apply the latest OS patch-sets by clicking the power button icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen and selecting "Updates available..."
    h2. 2) Remote Terminal
    You will need command line access to perform the installation tasks. Select the top "Dash Home" button of the Unity toolbar and enter the word "terminal", or use CTRL-ALT-t. If you prefer to open a remote terminal session use SSH. Ubuntu does not come with a secure shell login by default. To install it, use the following command:
    sudo apt-get install openssh-serverYou cannot login as root unless you set a root password using the "sudo passwd root" command. However, you can get root user access using the "sudo" command, which requires only to re-enter the password of your personal account. Access to "sudo" is controlled by the /etc/sudoers file.
    The best way to establish a remote command line session as root is to login with your personal account, e.g.: ssh [email protected], and then type "sudo su -" to become root, or use "sudo <command>" to execute individual commands. If your account does not have "sudo" access you can login as root using "su - root", but will need to know the root password.
    h2. 3) Install Additional Software
    Oracle 11g Express Edition requires additional software that is not installed by default:
    sudo apt-get install alien libaio1 unixodbch2. 4) Managing Swap Space
    Oracle demands that the minimum swap space for Oracle Database XE is 2 GB (2095100 KB) or twice the size of RAM, whichever is lesser. Enter the following shell command to verify your swap space:
    cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i swap
    SwapCached:            0 kB
    SwapTotal:       2095100 kB
    SwapFree:        2095100 kBYou can increase available swap space by using a swap file as long as disk space permits. The advantage of a swap file versus a swap partition is flexible space management because you can add or delete swap space on demand as necessary. The following will create and enable an additional 1 GB swap file at system startup, located in the /home directory:
    Login as root:
    sudo su -Enter the following commands:
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
    mkswap /home/swapfile
    swapon /home/swapfile
    swapon -aCreate a backup of the original "fstab" file and add the new swap file:
    cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup_`date +%N`
    echo '/home/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstabExit from root and verify the new swap space:
    exit
    swapon -s
    Filename                    Type          Size     Used     Priority
    /dev/sda5                               partition     2095100     0     -1
    /home/swapfile                          file          1048572     0     -2Swap space is not a substitute for installed RAM. Swap space is a safeguard that allows the system to move idle processes to disk before the OOM killer will begin to terminate processes in order to free up enough real memory to keep the system operational. The general rule for sizing the swap space depends on the size of installed RAM. If your system has less then 4 GB of RAM the swap space should usually be at least twice this size. If you have more than 8 GB of RAM installed you may consider to use an equal size as swap space. The more RAM you have installed, the less likely you are going to run into memory starvation, and the less likely you are going to need swap space, unless you have a bad process.
    h2. 5) Modify Kernel Parameters
    Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition requires the following Kernel parameters. Enter the commands exactly as shown:
    Login as root:
    sudo su -Cut & paste the following directly into a command shell (not a text editor):
    cat > /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf <<-EOF
    # Oracle 11g XE kernel parameters
    fs.file-max=6815744
    net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=9000 65500
    kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
    # kernel.shmmax=429496729
    kernel.shmmax=107374183
    EOFLoad and verify the new kernel parameters:
    service procps start
    sudo sysctl -q fs.file-max
    sudo sysctl -q kernel.shmmax
    sudo sysctl -q net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
    sudo sysctl -q kernel.sem The SHMMAX kernel parameter defines the upper memory limit of a process. It is a safeguard to stop a bad process from using all memory and causing RAM starvation. The Linux default is 32 MB. The official Oracle XE installation documentation suggests a value of 4 GB -1 bytes (429496729). Since Oracle 11g XE has a 1 GB memory limit, a smaller footprint will be a better safeguard for the complete system. Setting the SHMMAX parameter to 107374183 will be sufficient.
    h2. 6) Oracle Home Directory
    At the time of this writing, Enterprise Linux 6 is not supported for Oracle database yet. It is therefore not possible to confirm Oracle ext4 filesystem compatibility, which is default in Ubuntu 11. According to various information, ext4 may cause a performance problem for Oracle 11g database. The following will show you how to add a ext3 partition to your existing setup.
    h3. 6.a) Resize the Root Partition
    Provided you have sufficient free disk space, you should be able to resize the root partition to create an extra ext3 filesystem. Considering the 11 GB user datafile limit of the Express Edition, 18 GB should be more than enough.
    You can use the free Gparted Live CD to shrink your startup volume. Gparted downloads are available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable. When burning the CD, pay attention to burn the raw .iso image and not the possibly "mounted" image. If you are using a virtual machine like Oracle Virtualbox, you can mount the .iso image directly. There are going to be a few prompts when the system starts from the CD, but you can press Return to accept the defaults.
    When the Gparted window appears:
    - Select your ext4 root partition, usually /dev/sda1
    - Select the "Resize/Move" button from the toolbar.
    - Enter 18000 into the "Free space following" field and press the Return key.
      Be careful not not change the start of the partition!
    - Click the "Resize/Move" of the dialog and then then the "Apply" toolbar button.
      The process may take several minutes - do not abandon it!
    - Select the new unallocated free space of ~ 18 GB and push the "New" button.
    - Set the file system to "ext3" and label it "oraclexe" and click the "Add" button.
      Be sure to label it oraclexe, otherwise the follow-up instructions will fail.
    - Finally select "Apply from the toolbar to apply the changes.
    - Quit "Gparted", select "Exit" from the desktop and choose "Reboot" to restart the system.
    {code}
    After the system has restarted, open a terminal command shell.
    Login as root:
    {code}
    sudo su -
    {code}
    Backup "fstab" and add the UUID of the partition. The "tr" command remove the quotes:
    {code}
    cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_`date +%N`
    uuid=`blkid | grep oraclexe | awk '{print $3}'`
    uuid=`echo $uuid | tr -d '\042'`
    echo $uuid
    echo "$uuid  /u01  ext3  errors=remount-ro 0 1" >> /etc/fstab
    {code}
    The UUID is a unique number and should look similar to:
    {code}
    UUID=d1db753e-b5dd-4a4c-a61e-259c69867b58
    {code}
    Restart the system:
    {code}
    reboot
    {code}
    Verify the success:
    {code}
    df -h /u01
    {code}
    h3. 6.b) Setup External Storage
    If you prefer to setup an external drive to install Oracle XE, beware that it can be a fatal mistake to make an entry in /etc/fstab to automount your external storage device.  An unavailable device in /etc/fstab will prevent a system startup and prompt for appropriate actions at the console.
    The following is an example of how to prepare an external storage device to be used for Oracle 11g, including a script to automatically mount an external drive at system startup without the disadvantages of /etc/fstab. The script will also take into consideration that a device name might shift if you attach additional devices.
    To find out which USB devices are connected:
    {code}
    sudo parted -l
    {code}
    Look for the device that matches your USB storage. For example: /dev/sdb1
    {code}
    Model: USB 2.0 Flash Disk (scsi)
    Disk /dev/sdb: 2064MB
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
    Partition Table: gpt
    Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Name     Flags
    1      20.5kB  1929MB  1929MB  hfs+         mystick
    {code}
    Initialize the device using ext3 filesystem - this will erase all data. The "-c" option will check for bad blocks (read-only), "-L" is the volume label:
    {code}
    sudo umount /dev/sdb1
    sudo mkfs.ext3 -c -L oraclexe /dev/sdb1
    {code}
    Install the pmount distribution package:
    {code}
    sudo apt-get install pmount
    {code}
    Login as root:
    {code}
    sudo su -
    {code}
    Cut & paste the following into the command prompt (not a text editor):
    {code}
    cat > /etc/init.d/oracle-mount <<-EOF
    #! /bin/sh
    # /etc/init.d/oracle-mount

    h2. 7) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
    Oracle 11gR2 XE under Ubuntu 11.10 will result in "ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not support on this system" either at Oracle database startup or during the initial installation. Ubuntu 11.10 uses a new version of the "systemd" system and session manager and has migrated away from /dev/shm and other common directories in favor of /run.
    There are several ways how to address the problem. You can either enable /dev/shm shared memory, or change the default memory management of Oracle 11g from AMM (Automatic Memory Management) to ASMM (Automatic Shared Memory Management) as it was in used the previous 10g version. Since AMM is one of the new features of 11g, the following will show you how to make to make AMM work.

    The upper limit of shared memory under Linux is set to 50 % of the installed RAM by default. If your system has less than 2 GB of RAM installed, there is still a chance to run into ORA-00845 error if your shared memory is used by other software.
    The verify available shared memory, type the following commands:
    {code}
    sudo df -h /run/shm

    h2. 8) Installing Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition
    The final release version of Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition can be downloaded for free at http://otn.oracle.com/database/express-edition/downloads. The software should automatically downloaded into the "Downloads" folder of your home directory.
    Enter the following commands to unpack the installer:
    {code}
    cd ~/Downloads
    unzip oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
    rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm.zip
    {code}
    The Debian Linux based package management of Ubuntu is not compatible with the Red Hat package manager. The Oracle installer needs to be converted using the following commands:
    {code}
    cd ~/Downloads/Disk1
    sudo alien --to-deb --scripts oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
    (This may take a few minutes)
    rm oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
    {code}
    The following needs to be set for compatibility:
    {code}
    sudo ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
    sudo mkdir /var/lock/subsys
    {code}
    Ubuntu uses different tools to manage services and system startup scripts. The "chkconfig" tool required by the Oracle installer is not available in Ubuntu. The following will create a file to simulate the "chkconfig" tool.
    Login as root:
    {code}
    sudo su -
    {code}
    Copy & paste the following *directly* into the command prompt to create a file:
    {code}
    cat > /sbin/chkconfig <<-EOF
    #!/bin/bash
    # Oracle 11gR2 XE installer chkconfig hack for Debian based Linux (by dude)
    # Only run once.
    echo "Simulating /sbin/chkconfig..."

    Set execute privileges:
    {code}
    sudo chmod 755 /sbin/chkconfig
    {code}
    Install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition entering the following commands:
    {code}
    cd ~/Downloads/Disk1
    sudo dpkg --install ./oracle-xe_11.2.0-2_amd64.deb
    (This may take a couple of minutes)
    {code}
    Run the configuration script to create (clone) the database and follow the screen. Accept the default answers, including "y" to startup the database automatically, or modify as required.
    {code}
    sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
    (This can take a few minutes - the installation completed successfully.)
    {code}
    To verify success, the procedure should end showing:
    {code}
    Starting Oracle Net Listener...Done
    Configuring database...Done
    Starting Oracle Database 11g Express Edition instance...Done
    Installation completed successfully.
    {code}
    Set a password for the Oracle account:
    {code}
    sudo passwd oracle
    {code}
    h2. 9) Post-Installation
    In order to use sqlplus and other tools, the Oracle account requires specific environment variables. The following will set these variables automatically at every Oracle login:
    Login as the Oracle user:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Copy the default account skeleton files and add the Oracle env script to .profile:
    {code}
    cp /etc/skel/.bash_logout ./
    cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ./
    cp /etc/skel/.profile ./
    echo "" >>./.profile
    echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
    {code}
    By default, the Oracle Database XE graphical user interface is only available at the local server, but not remotely. The following will enable remote logins:
    Login as the Oracle user:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Login as SYSDBA and execute the following:
    {code}
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETLISTENERLOCALACCESS(FALSE);
    exit
    {code}
    See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17781_01/admin.112/e18585/toc.htm for more information.
    h3. a) Unity desktop configurations
    The Oracle XE menu under the previous Gnome Classic desktop shows several useful scripts to backup the database, start and stop the database, etc. Under the Unity based desktop this menu is not available. You can either switch to the Gnome Classic desktop as outlined in chapter 2, or perform the following steps to modify and copy the scripts as outlined below. The start and stop database scripts will also be modified to perform a progress feedback.
    Login as user root:
    {code}
    sudo su -
    {code}
    Convert desktop files:
    {code}
    cd /usr/share/applications
    sed -i 's/Categories.*/Categories=Database;Office;Development;/g' oraclexe*
    sed -i 's/MultipleArgs/X-MultipleArgs/g' oraclexe*
    sed -i 's/MimeType.*/MimeType=application\/x-database/g' oraclexe*
    sed -i 's/.png//g' oraclexe*
    sed -i 's/Terminal=false/Terminal=true/g' oraclexe-startdb.desktop
    sed -i 's/Terminal=false/Terminal=true/g' oraclexe-stopdb.desktop
    {code}
    Exit root:
    {code}
    exit
    {code}
    Login as user Oracle:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Modify database start and stop scripts:
    {code}
    cd /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/config/scripts
    cp startdb.sh start.sh_orig
    cp stopdb.sh stopdb.sh_orig
    sed -i 's/>.*//g' startdb.sh
    sed -i 's/>.*//g' stopdb.sh
    {code}
    You will need SYSDBA privileges and set Oracle environment variables in order to use your regular user account.
    Login to your regular user account:
    {code}
    su - dude
    {code}
    Enter the folowing command:
    {code}
    sudo usermod -a -G dba dude
    {code}
    Then update your profile to automatically set the necessary Oracle environment variables:
    {code}
    echo "" >>./.profile
    echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >>./.profile
    {code}
    Update your Desktop folder to contain useful Oracle XE scripts:
    {code}
    cp /usr/share/applications/oraclexe* ~/Desktop
    chmod 750 ~/Desktop/oraclexe*
    {code}
    To verify success re-login and try "sqlplus":
    {code}
    su - oracle
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    {code}
    h2. 10) Tips and Troubleshooting
    h3. 10. a) Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application
    Error: Port 1521 appears to be in use by another application. Specify a different port.This error happens after a previously unsuccessful configuration attempt using /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure script. The script was able to start the Listener process, but most likely failed to continue  to clone the database, e.g. ORA-00845. The following should correct the problem:
    Determine the oracle listener process that is already running:
    {code}
    $ ps -ef | grep oracle
    {code}
    Your output should be similar to:
    {code}
    oracle   19789     1  0 19:46 ?        00:00:00 /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/tnslsnr
    {code}
    Then kill the process, using the appropriate process id, for instance:
    {code}
    $ sudo kill -9 19789
    {code}
    h3. 10.b) cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directory
    Starting Oracle Net Listener...touch: cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/listener': No such file or directoryThis error occurs when you run /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure, but failed the preinstallation step to create the /var//lock/subsys directory as outlined in chapter 8.
    h3. 10.c) ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET
    ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system See chapter 7 to enable /dev/shm and verify free space available in /run/shm
    h3. 10.d) Apex ADMIN password
    According to the Oracle documentation, the password for the INTERNAL and ADMIN Oracle Application Express user accounts is initially the same as the SYS and SYSTEM administrative user accounts. Well, I tried several times without success. To reset the Apex Admin password:
    Login as user oracle:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
    {code}
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    {code}
    At the SQL prompt, type the following to be prompted to change the password:
    {code}
    SQL> @?/apex/apxxepwd.sql
    exit
    {code}
    When done, open your browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
    Workspace: Internal
    Username: ADMIN
    Password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
    I will prompt you to reset the password:
    old password: password you set with apxxepwd.sql
    new password: final_password
    You can also login as the Apex Admin using http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex_admin
    h3. 10.e) SYS and SYSTEM password
    Use the following commands to reset the SYS and SYSTEM passwords if necessary:
    Login as the Oracle user:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Login as SYSDBA and type the following at the SQL prompt:
    {code}
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> alter user sys identified by "password" account unlock;
    SQL> alter user system identified by "password" account unlock;
    SQL> exit
    {code}
    h3. 10.f) Uninstall Oracle 11g XE
    The following will completely uninstall and remove Oracle 11g XE:
    Open a terminal seesion and login as user root:
    {code}
    sudo su -
    {code}
    Enter the following:
    {code}
    /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
    dpkg --purge oracle-xe
    rm -r /u01/app
    rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
    update-rc.d -f oracle-xe remove
    update-rc.d -f oracle-mount remove
    update-rc.d -f oracle-shm remove
    {code}
    h3. 10.g) Reconfigure Oracle 11g XE
    Type the following commands in a terminal window:
    {code}
    sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
    sudo rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
    sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
    {code}
    h3. 10.h) Gnome Classic desktop
    Ubuntu 11 moved from the Gnome Classic desktop to Unity and removed the "Ubuntu Classic" login option. Unity was designed to make more efficient use of space given a limited screen size and touch screens. If you prefer to use the Gnome Classic desktop, enter the following into a terminal window:
    {code}
    sudo apt-get install gnome-panel
    {code}
    To log into the Gnome Classic desktop, select the "Gearwheel" at the login screen and select "Gnome Classic".
    h3. 10.i) Unix vi cursor keys
    The instructions in this tutorial do not require the use of any text editor. However, if you would like use the backspace and cursor keys in the "vi-editor", the following needs to be installed:
    {code}
    sudo apt-get install vim
    {code}
    h3. 10.j) Backup Database
    In order to perform an online database backup using the supplied "Backup Database" script, the database needs to run in Archive-Log mode. This can be setup using the following commands:
    Login as the Oracle user:
    {code}
    su - oracle
    {code}
    Login as SYSDBA and type the following:
    {code}
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> shutdown immediate
    SQL> startup mount
    SQL> alter database archivelog;
    SQL> alter database open;
    SQL> exit
    {code}

    Excellent Blog. Thank You
    Small clarification on Step **6) Oracle Home Directory, ...a) Resize the Root Partition**
    Ubuntu 11.10 has Gparted available as a Ubuntu software download, DONT use that while trying the above step, instead download the ISO file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable/ gparted-live-0.12.0-5.iso (124.6 MB)
    Burn that ISO file on a Blank DVD, reboot the Ubuntu , during startup select Boot from DVD Option if not already selected. this will take to Boot Menu Options of Gparted Live then select the first menu option, and this allows to do further action such as Re-sizing .
    and once you have chosen and executed step a) . do NOT run step b) also that is "Setup External Storage"
    I hope this minor clarification can avoid some confusion

  • FXO - FXS PSTN emulation for testing lab

    Hi netpros,
    For testing purposes. I am wondering whether it is possible to simulate PSTN by connecting routers FX0<->FXS ports as per the diagram. I will be purchasing E1 cards in several weeks but for now I am trying to get PSTN emulation using what I have got. Also ..do I need to have FXO ports on the 'PSTN emulator' device as well or having FXS connected to the edges router's FXO will be fine? Do I need to use PLAR to redirect the incoming calls from PSTN to the destination analog phone ?
    Your help is much appreciated !!!
    NOTE: I have tried getting some help on the Training forum without any luck

    Hi,
    Yes It will work.But you have to give connection plar under FXO ports.
    HTH.
    Please Rate if it helps

  • I am trying to simulate sequential threads ...

    Hi ,
    I am trying to simulate a load testing scenario on our Java Connector Implementation ( JCA) through a test class.I would have loved to use a load testing tool like JMeter but unfortunately JMeter doesn't have built in JCA sampler.
    Basically I am trying to simulate multiple sessions and each session would be comprising multiple requests to the Application server . I want to simulate multiple requests belonging to a session as multiple threads that run sequentially one after another and uses a common connection object to simulate calls to the connector.
    All is ok. I know it will be a Thread within Thread kind of program... But the point where I am stuck is how do I ensure that all threads that are simulating requests to the app server(ie requests within a sibngle session) run sequntially ? I am seeing that all the threads are starting in parallel which I want to stop. Any code snippet will be highly useful.

    subhrajyoti wrote:
    If I am not wrong every requests(within a session) from the broswer to an application server is a separate thread . each of these these threads run sequentially .
    I want to simulate the same thing. So I need threads .Each request from (the same or different clients) will cause the creation of a new thread ON THE SERVER.
    I think this is where you are becoming confused, you have stated that multi-threading is occurring on the browser/client, it is not (necessarily) the case, the multi-threading is happening on the server.
    Also please spell-check your text before posting it.

  • Simulate load times

    Hi all,
    Anyone here knows if we can simulate load time in BW?
    Example, i have a DSO that goes to a Cube for reporting.
    I would like to simulate how long 100,000 records will take to get from ECC to the Cube.
    I might later want to test how long 250,00 records will take.
    RSA3 is not useful as it can only test how fast the extractor will take.
    Is such as thing possible?

    Hi Ganesan,
    1) for DSO to Cube Loading:  You have to create a DTP.
       Execute the DTP with Debugging mode (simulation).
       Then in the monitor you can find the time taken.
    2) for Loading from ECC to BI : You have to create Info package.
       But info package does not give any option for simulation.
    cheers.

  • Is it possible to simulate a table for reference in  the "Custom Calculation Script" in Acrobat?

    I am attempting to simulate a table in a Acrobat form where the formula looks at the number or name from another field and looks through the code for the name or number reference and returns the value associated with the number or name. Is this possible in Acrobat forms?
    Bruce

    Yes, it's possible. You can get the name of the field that is being calculated using event.target.name, and then you can manipulate that name to get a row number (for example) and access other fields in that row.

  • HOWTOs to setup VoIP don't work on my N81

    Hello,
    I have a Nokia N81 and I want to setup SIP on it, using my VoipBuster account.
    I've successfully configured this account a thousand times on different systems, but it seems impossible to get it to work with my Nokia phone, even after following the HOWTOs everybody reported to work with their phones:
    http://www.poromenos.org/node/74
    http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/751303.html
    I am 200% sure that I've entered the details correctly and added the relevant profile in "Tools -> Settings -> Connection -> Internet Tel.", but when I go to "Tools -> Connectivity -> Internet Tel.", select my home network and try to connect, I get this error message: "Unable to connect to the connection network". And if I try to call a number via "Internet call", I get "Internet telephone service not available".
    What may be going wrong? Does this /smartphone/ store error logs like operating systems do (they may help to find the problem)?
    The other weird thing I've noticed is that the phone *always* overrides "Transport Type" to "Auto" in both the proxy and registrar sections. I've tried many times to set it to UDP, but it always sets it to "Auto".
    Just in case: I can use this account with the software I have installed on my computer (from the same network) and my Nokia phone has no problem to access the Internet via my home network.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto

    h2. Install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto
    Version: B
    Author: Dude, 24. May 2011
    The following are step by step instructions how to install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition (Beta) under Linux Ubuntu 11.04, 64-bit.
    Access to the Internet is required.
    The instructions cover the following additional topics:
    - Converting Red Hat based Oracle XE installer to Ubuntu.
    - Work-around for missing /sbin/chkconfig tool.
    - Install Oracle XE into a different directory or disk volume.
    - Relocate and configure the Oracle user and default login directory.
    - Uninstall, reconfigure and perform first database backup.
    - Notes and web links.
    - Troubleshooting
    h3. A) System Setup and Prerequisites
    h4. A.1. System Access
    You will need terminal command line, root and system console access to perform the setup tasks.
    To open a Terminal at the system console:
    Menu Applications > Accessories > TerminalThe following commands will enable remote ssh login with root access:
    sudo apt-get install openssh-server
    sudo passwd root
    Verify:
    ssh root@xe_server_host_nameh4. A.2. Software Prerequisites
    The following is required in order to install Oracle 11gR2 XE:
    sudo apt-get install alien libaio1 unixodbcThe following is not required, but it will fix backspace and arrow keys in case you prefer using the vi-editor:
    sudo apt-get install vimh4. A.3. System Swap space
    Minimum swap space required is 2 GB. You can increase swap space if necessary using a swap file:
    To analyze current swap space and memory configuration:
    sudo cat /proc/meminfo
    To install a 1 GB swapfile named swapfile in /, for example:
    sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
    (this may take a while)
    sudo mkswap /swapfile
    sudo swapon /swapfile
    sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig
    sudo echo '/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstab
    Verify:
    sudo swapon -a
    sudo swapon -sh4. A.4. Kernel Parameters
    Oracle 11g XE requires the following additional kernel parameters:
    sudo nano /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf
    (Enter the following)
    # Oracle 11g XE kernel parameters
    fs.file-max=6815744
    net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=9000 65000
    kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
    kernel.shmmax=536870912
    (Save the file)
    Note: kernel.shmmax = max possible value, e.g. size of physical RAM.
    Verify: sudo cat /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf
    Load new kernel parameters:
    sudo service procps start
    Verify:
    sudo sysctl -q fs.file-max
    -> fs.file-max = 6815744h4. A.5. Oracle Installation Directory
    The current Oracle Installation Guide uses the same directory like in previous versions: /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/server. However, the current Beta installation uses Oracle Flexible Architecture (OFA) and installs into /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe. Due to size limitations of Oracle XE it may not be necessary to store the installation to a specific directory or separate volume, but it is possible:
    Install Oracle XE to separate disk volume:
    From the system console menu: System > Administration > Disk Utility
    Select "ext3" filesystem for Oracle compatibility and specify a Volume label, e.g. Oracle.
    Notice the device name e.g. /dev/sdb
    Get the drive UUID:
    sudo blkid
    e.g. /dev/sdb: UUID="d19a2d8f-da43-4802-8bdb-0703c855e23a"
    Modify /etc/fstab to automatically mount the volume at system startup:
    sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.original
    sudo nano /etc/fstab
    (Add the following, using determined UUID, for exmple)
    UUID=d19a2d8f-da43-4802-8bdb-0703c855e23a /u01 ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
    (Save the file)
    Create the mount-point, mount the new volume and set ownership and privileges:
    sudo mkdir /u01
    sudo mount -a
    sudo chown root:root /u01
    sudo chmod 755 /u01
    Verify:
    df -h
    or restart the systemYou can also install Oracle XE into a specific directory:
    Create a symbolic link to store the installation into an existing directory, for instance:
    sudo mkdir /home/oracle-xe
    sudo ln -s /home/oracle-xe /u01h3. C) Oracle 11g XE Download and Installation
    h4. C.1. Download and convert the Installer from Red Hat to Ubuntu
    Please see section E.3. to download the Oracle 11gR2 XE installer.
    Select the version listed for Linux x64.
    sudo unzip linux.x64_11gR2_OracleXE.zip
    sudo alien --to-deb --scripts oracle-xe-11.2.0-0.5.x86_64.rpm
    (This may take a while)h4. C.2. Create a special chkconfig script
    The Red Hat based installer of Oracle XE 11gR2 beta relies on +/sbin/chkconfig+, which is not used in Ubuntu. The chkconfig package available for the current version of Ubuntu produces errors and my not be safe to use. Below is a simple trick to get around the problem and install Oracle XE successfully:
    Create /sbin/chconfig:
    sudo nano /sbin/chkconfig
    (Cut and paste the following)
    #!/bin/bash
    # Oracle 11gR2 XE installer chkconfig hack for Debian by Dude
    file=/etc/init.d/oracle-xe
    if [[ ! `tail -n1 $file | grep INIT` ]]; then
       echo >> $file
       echo '### BEGIN INIT INFO' >> $file
       echo '# Provides:             OracleXE' >> $file
       echo '# Required-Start:       $remote_fs $syslog' >> $file
       echo '# Required-Stop:        $remote_fs $syslog' >> $file
       echo '# Default-Start:        2 3 4 5' >> $file
       echo '# Default-Stop:         0 1 6' >> $file
       echo '# Short-Description:    Oracle 11g Express Edition' >> $file
       echo '### END INIT INFO' >> $file
    fi
    update-rc.d oracle-xe defaults 80 01
    (Save the file)
    Set appropriate execute privileges:
    chmod 755 /sbin/chkconfig
    Note: You should remove the /sbin/chkconfig file after successful installation of Oracle XE.
    h4. C.3. Install and configure Oracle XE
    sudo dpkg --install ./oracle-xe_11.2.0-1.5_amd64.deb
    /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
    (This will take a while)
    Remove the /sbin/chkconfig script, which is no longer needed.
    sudo rm /sbin/chkconfigh4. C.4. Relocate and Configure the Oracle user login
    The Oracle XE installer specifies /u01/app/oracle as the login directory for the Oracle user. Although not really necessary, the following will relocate the Oracle user $HOME to a standard location and create standard /etc/skel login files:
    Exit all Oracle user sessions:
    sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
    sudo kill -9 `ps -ef | grep oracle | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
    sudo userdel oracle
    sudo useradd -s /bin/bash -G dba -g dba -m oracle
    sudo passwd oracle
    Verify:
    sudo id oracle

    Regards and best of luck!
    Edited by: Dude on May 25, Version B: various corrections. chkconfig package (A.2.) not required.

    even though I am admin user.Admin user is a MS Windows term, that does not apply to Linux or Unix in the same fashion.
    The configuration script tells you "You must be root user to run the configure script. Login as root user and
    then run the configure script."
    This is most likely correct because your account is not root and does not have UID 0. What you can do is to login as root e.g. sudo su -, as the message suggest, or use "sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure", provided your account is defined in the /etc/sudoers file to perform root/admin actions.
    Btw, do not modify /etc/passwd and /etc/group to give you admin privileges or try to create a another root account under a different name. That's not the way it works and usually leads to nasty problems.

  • Jabber cannot do voice calls to PSTN or to other jabber user

    Hi,
    I'm trying to troubleshoot why jabber for windows 9.7.2 is not able to establish calls to PSTN dialed by DN and to other jabber user called by URI, not DN.
    We have CUCM 10 with IM and Presence 10. IM and Presence is newly installed. I have created 2 x Cisco Unified Client Services Framework devices for 2 users. Users are able to connect through jabber for windows, IM, do direct DN-to-DN calls (including video), but not able to call outside to PSTN and by URI to other users.
    Cases:
    - jabber for windows - call DN to DN between internal users - working with video
    - jabber for windows - call DN to PSTN through SIP-to-SIP connection (SIP trunk to GW, SIP trunk from GW to ISP) - not working CUCM returning me Q.850 cause 65 to jabber immediately when other side pick up phone, even jabber hear ringing with music from ISP side. - Cause: 65(0x41)[Bearer capability not implemented]
    - jabber for windows - in search field I search for second user, I can see presence, when I click call button, call is immediately dropped - don't know reason still not troubleshooted.
    communication between GW 2801 and ISP is OK, they are acknowledge codec and everything is fine.
    EDIT: I tried to connect jabber for windows directly to CUCM TFTP servers without IM and Presense server. I have same behavior, when outgoing call is picked up it is immediately dropped by CUCM and send Q.850 cause 65 to jabber.
    EDIT2: any other SIP device configured same way as jabber CSF is working. just jabber not.
    EDIT3: when I selected "Media Termination Point required" on jabber device in CUCM, then voice is working normally. But if possible I do not want this and make voice without MTP. How?
    THanks

    I found it, i have enabled "Allow Presentation Sharing using BFCP" on SIP profile assigned to trunk pointing to voice gateway. This causes that SDP from gateway didn't come.

  • Can't call out on PSTN after ethernet adapter failure in J4W

    Hi all
    Okay here goes.
    We are currently deploying new laptops in our business. It's the brand new Lenovo X1 Carbon 2nd G. together with a USB based docking station. Unfortunately there is a very annoying bug with the docking station. The problem is that the dock ethernet NIC, suddenly disappears from time to time in Windows. This means that Jabber for Windows is failing over to the Wi-Fi network. This should be okay, but we are seeing an issue with J4W, when the ethernet NIC disappear.
    The problem is that J4W can't call out to external phone numbers/PSTN, but all internal calls are working fine. Also it's possible to call from an external number/PSTN to the J4W client. But still, the J4W client can't call an external no. You will only hear a busy tone when trying to make an external call.
    It doesn't help restarting the J4W client, we have to reboot the entire computer to make the client be able to call external numbers over Wi-Fi. Meaning that the ethernet NIC on the docking station, isn't reappearing after a reboot of the laptop. To make it reappear, we have to disconnect and connect the docking station cable.     
    Atm. we are waiting for a fix from Lenovo, but in the meantime I can't understand why we can't call external no. when the ethernet NIC fails. I mean, we can call external numbers. over Wi-Fi, but not when the ethernet NIC are failing.
    Can anyone point me into the correct direction here?
    Specs:
    CUCM: 8.6.2.22900-9
    CUP: 8.6.4.13900-4
    J4W: 9.7
    Gateway: Cisco 2911
    OS: Windows 7 32 bit.

    Hello Taxi-Anne,

  • Voice mail from PSTN

    Hello,
    I have unity connection 8.6 .2 and our corporate users need to access their voice mail when they are not in the office (from PSTN) so how i can achieve that.
    I know only 2 steps please correct me if the below 2 steps are wrong and complete the rest of the steps
    I will create a hunt pilot DN (DID) with unity connection answering ports.
    call will reach to unity connection by direct routing rule configured for dialed in number (DID )
    thanks

    Dear's
    you"ll are experts i may not understanding what actually you'll are trying to explain.Please bare with me to get success.
    I will write in bullets my understanding please correct and also
    when a pstn user dial a number 23232980
    VG (MGCP) receives the calls and the call is send to CUCM to DN 980
    In my case 980 is Hunt pilot the call will hit to Unity connection
    By creating forwarding rule " sends call to"  conversation sign in  with equal operator & dialled in 980 routing rule conditions.
    user will be prompted for the username and password.
    Please write in Bullets for the below comment.
    And, as Terry mentioned, you need to add appropriate translations to convert your DID to the Hunt Pilot number.
    I didn't understood below paragraph.
    An alternate option is to add 'Alternate extensions' for the user. In this case, apart from adding the alternate extensions, you do not have to do any other changes on Unity Connection. Callers can still dial the existing hunt pilot to reach unity connection. no need to create a new hunt pilot. just ensure you have appropriate translation patterns to convert your DID to the existing hunt pilot number.
    Thanks
