Meeting Place 8.5.2 FTP backup option missing

Hi All, I have a customer who has meeting place ver 8.5.2 installed BUT the FTP option for the backup is not avalable. Can anyone confirm if this is a licensing issue or a system setting OR failing that is there a decent SSH/RSYNC client they can use that will do it as that is the only option available?
Many Thanks

I can't believe the CIsco BU or whoever left this out. I feel the need to vent. FTP/sFTP has been an option forever, that every customer could easily support/roll-outon their OS of choice. I am struggling getting Rsync going from two new MeetingPlace servers- there appears to be some TCP port 22 incompatiability issue between MeetingPlace 8.5 and our enterprise UNIX platforms- as silly as this sounds.....I do not get SYN ACKs from MeetingPlace Rsync (seen via PCAP) or from SSH requests from mpx CLI. However, CUMP can connect via SSH to routers/vgw's, and laptops can SSH into our UNIX platforms.
The only thing I see different in the SSH SYN is a TSval field from MeetingPlace, but not from laptop clients. (NTP is configured and time is accurate on MPX).
Does anyone have any ideas for my crazy problem?
Thanks!

  • Meeting Place 8.0 Audio Recording play back

    Hi,
    We are currently using Meeting place 8.5, it is currently installed as Express Media server (Single server solution) as audio only conferencing solution.
    I am able to record a meeting using meetingplace conference manager, but there is no option to find/play the recording, when i select the meeting and check the meeting details, I can find that the meeting is recorded but Attachment is displayed as No.
    I found links which says to find the meeting using Meeting place web scheduler and find meetings but is if no avail as there is not web server installed in my setup.
    Would like to if there is any way to find/play the recording.
    Thanks,
    Vinay

    Hi Vinay,
    Accessing or playback of recordings requires a Web Scheduling server to manage and convert the recording from the Application server. This is not possible with just an applicaiton server alone.

    My Exchange Server is synchronized with MS Active Directory. As far as I know, Kerberous is used for authentication. So, how can I enable NTLM authentication scheme on AD? Are there any other options for Cisco MPE and Exchange synchronization?

  • Meeting Place 7.1 Scheduling recurring voice conference issue

    Hello I am having an issue with Meeting Place 7.1, whenever we try to schedule a recurring voice conference we do not get the whole schedules that we need.
    For example If I try to schedule a conference daily for a month I don´t get schedule all the 30 days I get an error in some days.
    I have found this in the User Guide for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace thecnical documentation:
    • If the system is unable to schedule all meetings in your complete recurring meeting chain, it prompts
    you about the meetings it could not schedule. If this happens, set up individual instances of the
    meetings that could not be scheduled.
    But I am wondering if there is something that could fix this issue, becuase it happens every time we try to use the recurring option.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Meeting Place meeting ID customization

    All, a different request I have been  asked and am now asking you.  A client would like to limit the Meeting IDs given out  when a meeting is scheduled to 50 specific number strings.  They have been running like this on their old meeting system for quite some time and require this feature moving forward.  Apprently, they have a backup (hosted) system to which calls are re-routed where the meetings IDs are mirrored so no communication needs to be sent out to the meeting participants.
    The scenario is - reception creates a meeting with a meeting ID of 10001 (for instance) and communicates that to the end user.  If Meeting Place were to cease functioning prior to or during the meeting, they require that users would be able to dial the same number (after the telco have re-routed the destination to the backup hosted system) and input the exact same ID they were given by reception.
    My question is, can this be done in MP and if so - where is this customization configured.
    Thanks in advance for the asssitance.

    Hi Anand,
    For MP 8.5 new setup, you don't need a web server. Web server is an optional component only when you are upgrading the system from earlier MP releases.
    If you are installing Webex node, it needs to be on a seperate MCS server (however, this is an optional component).
    Application server and Express Media Server require only one UCS server if this is single node deployment.
    Hardware requirements for application server and Webex node can be found in the following documents:

    Mpe requires the MP web server for native end user scheduling using a website. It also provides a cut down webex feel and you can share desktop applications etc.
    Outlook plugin and dial in is your only option with MPE other than giving people full access to the admin scheduling website which allows them to cancel other people's meetings.

  • Meeting Place Question

    Hi Guys,
       For a meeting place solustion, Is it must to have the MP Media Server ( MP 35XX) ? Or can we build up the solution only with Application/Conference server ( on MCS server) and MP Webex node ( on MCS server) ?
    Thanks
    Ragu

    you can have Hardware Media Server or Express Media with MP 8
    The Express Media Server is a set of software modules that reside on the Application Server.
    Note: During installation, you will have the option to choose between the Hardware Media Server and Express Media Server for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace scheduled meeting mode. Ad-hoc meetings are only available in Express Media Server mode.
    see the link which will help you find out all the details

    In summary,

    at Dec 17 2012 16:00 NZD, and it blocked all further calls into the system.
    In Meeting place 8.0 scheduling a maintenance  windows will result in  system reserving
    all available access ports , resulting in  total unavailability  for new callers. However
    existing calls will be preserved.
    Please refer
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0_--_Monitoring_and_Mai
    ntaining_the_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Web_Server#Scheduling_a_Maintenance_Window
    Once all the ports are reserved system will disallow all new callers from joining the
    meeting by giving error message 480, Temporarily in available
    Pramoth stated:
    Thanks for the finding. We didn't out the system under maintenance on that day.
    Where can I check to confirm if the system was put under Maintenance mode during that
    time.
    The Engineer went on further to say
    In meeting place 8.0 , while scheduling a meeting users can select an option called
    'reserve all ports'. Selecting this option will create a meeting, in your case 6988 that
    will block all access ports.
    You can right click on meeting 6988 --> Select Meeting details --> Check 'Meeting
    Type' and it will be 'reserve all ports'
    Access ports are virtual software ports by which audio callers access application server.
    When a person schedules a meeting and uses the option 'reserve all ports' ,system will
    reserve all system access ports for that meeting making meeting place  inaccessible for
    anyone else for calling in. Since users are unable to call in or schedule meeting this
    meeting will act as a maintenance window.
    0x122 is the Unique Meeting id corresponding to meeting id  6988. You can confirm it if
    you run 'mtginfo -m 6988' from you application server, it will display 0x122 as unique
    meeting id.
    just trying to provide some info to this question in case anyone runs across the same issue. they can see the notes/details that has been provided

    - What part numbers should be ordered for meeting place and Webex?
    - CUWL-Pro comes with Webex ports included, can use those ports?

  • Meeting Place and Webex Call Back Failing

    Hi
    Meeting place 8.5 with WebEx scheduling, SIP trunk to CUCM 8.5.
    Calling in using the specified number configured in call manager completes over the SIP trunk however call back from webex fails.
    Error:
    WebEx call back failed; no answer.
    Problem is I never recieve a call. I have enabled Webex call backs in webex.
    Seems like there is an issue on either MP or CUCM.
    Just looking for some ideas as I am stumped.

    This turned out to be a few things:
    1) I needed to configure a SIP proxy to CUCM from meeting place. This was the CUCM IP address and TCP port number.
    2) The SIP trunk security profile needed to be reconfigured for this trunk.
    3) E164 was being used so I created a translation pattern to strip the + for the CSS associated with the RP.
    A few things learned along the way.
    1) The "activity" command ran from a SSH prompt with allow you to simulate a call from meeting place. Option 4, enter the number to dial and "f" for port.
    2) In meeting place - Services -Logs - System Information Capture - Loading the index file and under the  CCA SIP LOG is the error being returned by CUCM. In my case it was Warning: 399 CSLCCM1 "Unable to find a device handler for the request received on port
    3) Command "cptrace" again from the SSH prompt will allow you to view the digits being sent from webex to meeting place.
    I hope this information helps someone...

  • Meeting place 8.5.1 WebEx deployment and recording audio calls

    Have MeetingPlace 8.5.1 application server (Web Ex deployment model -- 1 server) and we need to record our audio calls and that option displays error.
    I looked over docs and configuration guidelines, and see no recording options on our config pages for users/user groups like the documentation states to enable this.
    Do I need a audiorecording license, and if so, is the WebEx deployment model the correct model to work with recording? The cisco docs on this are not very clear and I haven't found a document that really lists/compares every feature available for each deployment model. The documents that mention audiorecording license talk about an Audio server or meetingplace deployment.
    Thanks, Erick

    I have this working now, I had to add a 1- to the access number so it was 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX on the Meeting Place web ex configuration page then redo the Webex configuratin setup.

  • Translation pattern to meeting place trunk.

    Hey Guys,
    Have a sip trunk from Service Provider.. When people from PSTN dial a number it should land onto our meeting place bridge. I am able to land it to any dn on call manager thru translation pattern. But how can i land the call to meeting place. ?
    Thanks
    VR

    So if that's the only thing they offer, you're going to need a transcoder or get them to offer G.711ulaw/alaw.  Another option would be getting the MeetingPlace server to advertise G.729.  It looks like that might be possible if you put it in High Quality audio mode- http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.5_--_Planning_the_Capacity_of_your_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_System

  • Can I exclude places.sqlite from time machine backup?

    Hi,
    Just looking at the time machine backup and raised a question about the repeated backup of places.sqlite in "~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/xxxxxxxx.default/", I am wondering if I can exclude this file from my backup or even exclude Profiles from my backup?
    What would this affect my backup? Are these all essentials?
    I have looked into this page and understand what places.sqlite does. However, what don't know is if this file is missing, does Firefox produce one automatically?
    Or say, if each of my places.sqlite in the prevoius backups was like 90MB, how much size would them really take in the storage?

    Under normal circumstances, you shouldn't have to. TM automatically "thins" (deletes) backups every time it does a new backup, on the following schedule:
    "Hourly" backups after 24 hours (except the first of the day, which is a "Daily" backup).
    "Daily" backups after a month (except the first of each week, which is a "Weekly" backup.)
    "Weekly" backups are kept until TM needs the space for new backups; then one or more of the oldest weeklies will be deleted.
    So after a month, even if you do an hourly backup every day, and that 100 mb file is changed and backed-up +*every time+* (not real likely), you'd have 54 backups (1 per day plus 24). That would take a total of 5.4 GB, small potatoes on any TM drive, and really not worth worrying about.
    But if you want, you could delete all the backups of it. See #12 in the Frequently Asked Questions *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.
