  • Third party Video conference device conferencing with Cisco SX80

    Hi ALL, 
    We have Cisco BE6K (Call Manager 10.5), CTS-SX80-IPST60-K9, DX650, 7861, 8861 IP phone, Cisco 2901 Voice Getaway, 3750 Switch and ASA. internet was connected on ASA. SIP connectivity (For DID) connected to Cisco 2901 Voice Getaway. 
    I need to know cisco best practice and implementation guide on below question:- 
    1. How Third party Video conferencing units (LIFESIZE and Polycom) can conference and call with Call Manager IP Phones and SX80. Third party device will not register on MY CUCM. 
    2. We have two site. On Sit-1 has own Call Manager 10.5 and Site-2 has own Call Manager 8.X both are reachable. Now How they make a call? 
    Thanks 
    Gazi Afzalur Rahman 

    HI Ayodeji,
    Thank you for valuable update.
    1. On B2B solution :- 
    a) Are Third party device needs to register on CUCM or not. What the B2B solution says because that device not register on CUCM? 
    b) Which connectivity i need Internet and SIP or Only Internet?
    c) On other site are they need SIP connectivity or Internet ?
    2. Sip trunk between the two clusters are we need SIP connectivity on both site or need only reachability? On this scenario are we need VOICE RT because we have different data connectivity router for both site. 
    Can You refer any CVD guide of implementation ..
    Thanks In Advance

  • Adding third party video card to P700 - no power connectors? New Power Supply Question...

    Hello,
    I have a new P700 30A90012US with a 650W PSU and that didn't come with a video card. I am planning to use it as a DAW and for occasional gaming via a dual boot.
    I wanted to put in a third party video card like a nVidea 970 but there aren't ANY connectors for video cards that I can find inside. The monitor I have is a 3440x1440 monitor. I have ordered a second 2609 Processor and RAM from Lenovo and have the following questions:
    Once I install the second processor, how much wattage for a video card is available to me?
    I understand that the 3rd party video card isn't supported but how do I attach power to it?
    If it is required that I have to replace the 650 power supply with an 850, does it come with the required cable? I only see a 4 pin connector on the mobo that is unused (and I believe it is for additional hdd)
    I tried searching but I am at a loss.
    Thanks,

    Your config isn't really power hungry (and the 85W CPUs help a lot).  Though technically outside of the official spec, I think you could easily go to a 225W card for graphics if you had the connectors available to support it.  I'll double check the current when I get a chance, but it's probably really low risk if you want to convert your single 6-pin connector to dual 6-pin or a single 8-pin (via a dongle) to get to 225W TDP if you wanted to.
    The PSU design is very modular, but unfortunately it's the aux power cable drops that kept it from being an easy field upgradable part.  I always recommend that people buy the larger PSU if they ever think they'll be doing any upgrades in the future just to make sure they are covered.
    And like I said if you're comfortable working inside the system, it's not impossible to upgrade that cable drop on your own if you want to go up to the 850W.  You'd have to get the cable and PSU, but after that it would require removing the motherboard and PSU, cutting some cable ties and routing the new cable, then getting everything routed correctly such that the motherboard reinstalls cleanly.

  • ThinkStation P700 - adding a third-party video card: supplementary power connectors?

    Hi all,
    I have recently purchased a ThinkStation P700 to replace my ageing setup and hopefully serve me for many years to come - It has not yet arrived (that's a different story altogether...).
    I have a bit of a dillema regarding the video card I purchased for it. For my work I need CPU, much less so GPU, and especially not a Quadro. So for pure pleasure I added a GeForce GTX Titan Black (yes, I know that Lenovo will will not provide support for stability issues caused by this, etc, etc). I have the card already - here's my problem:
    The card uses external power - it has one 8-pin and one 6-pin PCIe power connector on top of the board. With adapters I can get this to three 6-pin or multiple Molex, etc. The motherboard and the PSU in the P700 however, are so well designed and modular, that they almost seem too modular... I looked up the motherboard layout in the manual, and there are only 4-pin (?) connectors on the board, which are supposedly meant to be used with video cards. After a very long session with google it seems that hardly anyone has even heard of 4-pin power connectors for PCIe. Looking at pictures of the chassis available online, everything seems completely self-contained - the PSU slots into the board, and there are no free-hanging cables available whatsoever - am I right? Also pictures showing two full-size video cards installed, do not show power cables at all - maybe they're just cute marketing pics - the Quadros have power ports at the back - I simply can't see power cables in those pics, and the motherboard sockets are free. Obviously I know that the 4-pin, 6-pin and 8-pin are only combinations of 12V rails and ground.
    So my questions are:
    - are there any 6-pin or 8-pin connectors or Molex available anywhere at all?
    - is there a spare part in the form of a 4-pin to 6-pin adapter? Is it perhaps bundled with the P700?
    - how are the Lenovo-integrated video cards powered - surely with how thin the PCIE tracks are, they can't be powered only from the board - or can they?
    - is this perhaps a joke on me / catch to make sure I only buy the pre-approved cards?
    Thank you in advance.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Now THAT was lots of info, and more. Much appreciated.
    1. Power connectors - Indeed, Titan (Black) is 8 + 6 - so I'm happy with the info I got from you guys so far.
    2. Specs listing dual K6000 - this site (looks like a Lenovo site?): http://thinkstation-specs.com/thinkstation-p700/ - there's a PDF with the same info there. This even says 3 x K6000 in SLI. I mean the board physically has three long slots, and three of those 4-pin ports that according to the manual have something to do with power - but I can't see this working. The psref site says K6000 (one) but the online shop will not let you configure the P700 with one - unless some other options preclude it and that's why I didn't see it.
    3. CPU - I have no need for dual CPUs right now so I went for a single E5-1650v3 - I bought the P700 not P500 just so that I have an upgrade option, I may not use the second socket in the end but who knows.
    4. Yes, I got the 9364-8i card (plus supercap module) - is this a Lenovo-specific model? Hard to find anything about it online - or is it just new? The blind mate assemblies are good news. So not much different to server-type drive caddies in the end - minus hot swap maybe.
    5. Regarding the drives - are the internal (not front - the bottom ones) drive bays also referred to as FLEX bays? Theye are four of them and I intend to use four drives only ( 2x 240G SSD RAID 1 pre-installed + 2 x 4TB RAID 1 mine) - so why do I need to stick two drives into one tray - or is this just if I wanted to maximise the number of drives usable? The 4TB drives are HGST UltraStar 7k4000 - standard, full-thickness 3.5". The SSDs are Lenovo's whatever - the "240G SSD" option - Intel I think, looking at psref.
    6. Shipping delays - see, this is the sort of concrete info I was looking for and I'm immensely thankful for this.
    The rest is a rant/vent someone from Lenovo should read.
    So - in the meantime I started giving Lenovo UK & Ireland some abuse over Twitter (sorry, but well deserved IMO) - name and shame does wonders in the age of social media.
    Had I been told something along the lines of "sorry, new product, build issues, we're working on it", I would have (reluctantly) shut up and waited for my turn. I'm an engineer myself, supporting systems where minutes of downtime cost hundreds of thousands, and working with vendors a lot. Delays and issues happen, when an engineer tells me there's an issue and I don't sense B/S, I accept it.
    If the product is still wet, don't open it for orders or say it's pre-order. I can see that in the US the P700 is still "coming soon", in the UK it suddenly became available so I ordered it.
    However, the process here is broken: Lenovo UKI (is it the same in the US?) uses DigitalRiver as the shop/shipping/support front end. That's all well and good, outsourcing does work in some cases. BUT there's no way to view the estimated shipping dates - only customer support can retrieve them from Lenovo (why can't they just make this info available online - to avoid people over-relying on it?)
    The Customer Support cannot tell me anything. The only thing they can do is pull an estimated shipping date out of some magic 8-ball. Two weeks pass since order, I ask CS, they give me Dec 18th shipping date. I call them on the 22nd, on the call with me they tell me it's now magically the 22nd. Come on...
    Throughout all this time I got zero notifications about anything happening with the order, as far as the Lenovo site is concerned, it's "in process" since Nov 29. Do you know that when I order a Domino's pizza from round the corner, I get a live animated progress screen from order through assembly, baking, QA and delivery?
    Yes, it costs money and yes, businesses pushing more consumer grade disposable **bleep** than anything else, don't care about customer loyalty anymore, but why don't you at least show the high-end customers some respect - why can't you implement a tracking process for custom builds, or at least keep people updated?
    I specifically chose the Lenovo P-series because I have no doubt that they are the best on the market. Dell don't offer the same storage options and customisation options. HP are not up there either. Fujitsu Siemens make great machines with straightforward hinged doors and drive bays behind them, but they have a **bleep** distribution model i.e. via specialised resellers only, making it near-impossible for a regular mortal to buy - at least in the UK. So the sad thing here is that I will most likely just wait and you'll still get my money - but if the official channels keep treating me like an idiot, I am very tempted to take my $4k somewhere else.

  • Third Party Video Camera Wants To Zoom

    I use a Panasonic video camera connected via Firewire, when using iChat (4). Every few minutes the image it picks up of me zooms in, and then after a moment, it zooms back out. I have no idea what controls this, but it is driving me nuts.
    Any thoughts what might be going on and how I can solve this problem?

  • Video call from Cisco 8945 SCCP to Polycom VVX 1500 Third party Sip Phones between intercluster trunks is not working

    Dear All,
                   We have two cucm Clusters in Different Locations between that clusters i created
    Inter-Cluster Trunk (Non-Gatekeeper Controlled) Now all are working fine Between Clusters
    audio calls & Video calls between sccp 8945 phones  , but iam facing a Problem with third party
    Video Phones (Polycom VVX 1500 ) Third Party SIP Phones located in second cluster, From 1 st cluster cisco 8945 Video
    phone to  2nd cluster Polycom Video phone all calls are works for voice call only, but no video ,
    Please Suggest me Solution.
    Thank you,
    Sriman

    Try setting up a SIP trunk between the two clusters and set a route patten just to the VVX 1500 and check how that goes. 
    From memory inter-cluster trunks are a H.323 like protocol which might have video inter-op issues with the Polycom device.

  • Warranty with RAM-modul from third-party manufactor

    Hello,
    does anybody know if there exists an declaration of Toshiba that the use of third-party ram-modules does not affect the warranty for the computer?
    Thanks a lot for your answers!
    Greetings from Germany

    As far as I know such document doesnt exist. Fact is that you can upgrade RAM alone without service and this will not affect valid warranty. Toshiba offered list of compatible and tested RAM modules and if you use them they will be recognized properly and everything will be OK.
    Of course, nobody force you to use these modules. On the free market you can buy what you want. It can just happen that you will buy some cheap, no-name modules and they will not work properly.
    So, buy what do you want. For RAM upgrade check Users manuals where you can find exact step-by-step explanation how to put new modules into RAM slots.

  • Really Apple? OSX 10.8.5 disables built-in camera functionality with third party apps such as Skype and Gmail video chat. I do not have time machine on my 2013 MB Air. How can I get back to 10.8.4?

    Really Apple?
    With the release OSX 10.8.5 Apple has once again showed its true colors, and continued its efforts to create a closed Apple system, which eliminates third party vendors, unless, one can only assume... they pay.
    Included in this OSX update is the disabling of the built-in camera to work with third party applications such as Skype and Gmail video chat. No surprise the camera works just fine with Apple apps such as Facetime and Photobooth.
    The answer I got on my call to AppleCare to ask for assistance in reinstalling 10.8.4, so that I may Skype again, was we can not do that. You can not go back unless you have a time machine bkup.
    Can anyone help me get back to to 10.8.4 on my 2013 MB Air?
    I do not have a time machine bkup as this computer is not used to store important documents.
    Thank you.

  • Third party SSO with a custom login module

    Hello everyone,
    I've found a few posts on the forum with questions similar to mine, but none have been answered.  I'm using a 3rd party authentication product along with a custom implementation of the AbstractLoginModule interface.
    The setup is standard: A 3rd party agent is installed on a reverse proxy web server to SAP. The agent is configured to protect SAP resources, and it handles the login screens and authentication. Once the user has been authenticated, the AbstractLoginModule implementation kicks in, decrypts and validates an SSO token, retrieves the username from it and creates an SAP Principal.   
    The login ticket template is configured as follows:
    1.  EvaluateTicketLoginModule   SUFFICIENT
                        2.  MyLoginModule                      REQUISITE
                        3.  CreateTicketLoginModule       OPTIONAL
    One of the integration's key requirements is that direct interaction with standard SAP authentication must be avoided.  More specifically, the user should never need to enter an SAP password.  I'm only seeing two problems, both of which violate this requirement.
    The first is in cases where there is no existing SAP user that matches the authenticated user.  In this case, the third party token and SAP Principal are created, the abort method is called, and the user is redirected to the SAP login page.   I need to either bring to user back to the third party login page or to a custom error page~.
    The second problem occurs when an SAP password change is required. Again in this case, an SAP form is displayed after the module has created the Principal (although once the user changes the SAP password, all's well). If I were to disable mandatory password changes, would this apply to fat client access as well? If so, then it's not a viable option.
    The general idea in both instances is that the SAP I'd appreciate any help or suggestions.  
    Thanks
    ~ Since the SSO token applies to applications outside of SAP, I may add a login module parameter to make this a configurable choice. (I.e. allow the administrator to decide whether to inform the user that SAP authentication failed while preserving the SSO token, or to destroy the token and force re-authentication). However, if there is a way to configure the "bad credentials" URL outside of the module's code/parameters, it may be better to place the choice there.

    Hi Julius,
    Thank you for the quick response - and on a Sunday, no less!
    I have considered verifying that the user existed in SAP before creating the Principal.  One might argue that that would be the common sense thing to do.  The reason I've held off is that the error should be so rare that it may not justify the overhead.  There's a requirement to have a one-to-one username mapping between SAP and the authentication application.  It would be more efficient to assume that this requirement has been met and to handle the Exception when it hasn't been.  Of course, that doesn't mean that it's the right way to go.
    +_Julius Bussche wrote:_+
    For the first concern, if they can access the logon page directly (anyway) you could disable it as you do not want any password based logons (right?) and redirect it to your external page or an error page.
    Yes, this is what I'm hoping to do, but I'm not sure how to do it.  Here are some comments and questions about this:
    1. What's involved in disabling the login page?  I would think you'd need to replace it with something else rather than just switch it off.   Could I limit this change to the login ticket template so that other templates (basic authentication, for example) are still available?
    2. Keep in mind that users will never get past the "real" login page unless they have been authenticated.  This complicates matters because we're dealing with a scenario in which the user has already been authenticated but doesn't exist in SAP.  Therefore, it wouldn't make sense to go back to either login page.   
    3. What's involved in redirecting to an external page?  Is this an explicit redirect in the module code, or can it be decoupled from the module?  It's not a big deal, but it would be nice to avoid mandatory module parameters for relative paths to error pages.   
    I think the question I'm after is: "Can I simply change an SAP login URL parameter to point to a custom error page, and allow everything to work as it does now (where SAP handles the redirect)".  If so, could I limit the scope of the change to the login ticket template?  What would be even better is if I could configure SAP's response to this error.  Somewhere, it's currently configured to display the login page.  Ideally, I'd be able to configure it to display myErrorPage, and then set myErrorPage to the appropriate URL.  
    +_Julius Bussche wrote:_+
    For the second concern, I assume that there are no valid passwords involved here which might have expired, so as long as the user does not have the option to activate a password again and anyway cannot logon via password as the option is not presented... then you should be fine here as well with a forward proxy. Not sure which Java APIs are offered here, but you could check this together with the existence check and react to both prior to accessing SAP "from the outside".
    The problem here is that the SAP passwords are needed outside of the integration.  It's true that whether an SAP password has expired is irrelevant to the integration.  However,  this is a Web-based integration; SAP passwords must still be available to users who have access to other clients.  With this in mind, could I create a user password policy that disables password expiration and automatic password change, but only apply it to Web client access?  If not, do you know how I might override SAPu2019s behavior?
    Once again, thank you for taking your time to help me out.  I am very grateful.

  • Third party system call function module/BAPI through RFC to update Z table

    Dear Friends,
    We have a third party system which directly inserts a Z table in SAP through its programming, which is an auditing issue.

    if third party system is capable of making Remote Function call, then writing a Function module & making it remote enable is not difficult task in ABAP.
    You may have to prepare specifications first to decide if third party system is going to Read, insert, update, delete records from Zee table.

  • Third party plug-ins for develop module

    It's been a while since this has been brought up, so I thought I'd restate this request in the current context.
    One of the major things that's missing from the Lightroom ecosystem is a way for third parties to produce plug-ins/extensions for the develop module. The advantages would be numerous:
    1) Ability to add exotic features that may not appeal to a large audience (although in combination all these features would), such as negative inversion, alternate tone curves, color correction and replacement tools.
    2) Third-party versions of features that users have been clamoring for: color space clipping, lens/perspective correction, multi-parameter noise reduction.
    3) Community buzz (if approached more openly than the Photoshop SDK)
    As for the implementation, maybe it's a good idea to let developers use a combination of Lua and PixelBender (2.0)? The combination would allow for platform-independent code that is still fast. Also, the plug-ins should get to choose from (at least) two entry points: (1) after demosaicing but before color mixing (B&W) & tone curve, and (2) at the end of the pipeline.
    Here's hoping for the SDK appearance in LR3!
    Simon

    There have been numerous requests for third party plugin (or some way to extend the Develop module) over the years.  I agree it is a critical item that needs to be addressed ASAP.  Hopefully in LR3.
    What I find most interesting about this particular request is that Simon has pointed out that Adobe already have the technology (Pixel Bender) and just need to apply it.  Its already in Photoshop CS4 and Flash 10, and is used for non-destructive editing in those apps.  So I'd be extremely disappointed if it doesn't make it into the next major release of their workflow/non-destructive editing tool.  You'd have to be an optimist to expect it anytime before LR3.
    The only real question remaining is will Pixel Bender, as it currently stands, meet the full needs of the LR plugin developer community?  e.g. Could Noise Ninja or Nik plugins be ported to Pixel Bender?  My guess is "not yet".  Then Adobe need to figure out how much to change LR, how much to change Pixel Bender, and indeed how big a first step they take when adding Develop module extensibility to LR3.  Lets hope it is enough for developers of the most popular plugins to invest the time and effort to develop LR specific versions of their products.
    My 2c worth.

  • IIS7 configuration, blocked broadcast video stream from third party host

    I have a client that recently replaced a windows server 2003 with windows server 2008 R2 as their webserver.  This was a big change to IIS7.  An application that I developed for them has stopped working and I believe this is related to the IIS7
    configuration.  The application uses SilverLight technology to display a broadcast video along with some powerpoint slides.
    Here is the URL going to the server from a link on an html page. 
    http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/sctr01/0/start.html?media=http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/unit2.asx
    The iiscast.wlf.org is the public name for the IIS server.  When we click on the link it does properly display the start.html content but fails to connect to the video stream.  The video stream is hosted by a third party and the contents of the
    unit2.asx file has the url for that video stream.  When a put the
    http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/unit2.asx portion in IE it does properly display the video stream on mediaplayer.   All this worked prior to moving to the new server.   When I use F12 in IE to debug this, I see a brief message appear
    in the debugger that it is opening unit2.asx.  After that the debugging is very limited except I know I’m getting an exception in the silverlight and the video doesn’t display.   Other similar Silverlight apps on the same server that display
    archived video are working.
    Here is the content of unit2.asx
    <asx version = "3.0">
      <Title>Unit2 Bdct</Title>
      <entry>
        <ref href = "http://easylink.playstream.com/winlive/wlforg2.wvx"/>
      </entry>
    </asx>
    Playstream is a video stream hosting company.  When someone links to them, it pulls the video stream from my clients media server broadcast point. 
    wlforg2.wvx contains the link back to the media server broadcast point at my client.
    We have a lot of connections going on but keeping in mind that  http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/unit2.asx will display the video and
    http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/sctr01/0/start.html?media=http://iiscast.wlf.org/vod/broadcast/unit2.asx
    Is not displaying the video although all this worked on the old server.
    My guess is that something in the IIS7 is blocking this process.
    FYI the old server completely died so I can’t look into its configuration which was done in 2004 by someone else.

    This was entered in the iis.net forum as suggested.  The problem has been resolved.  The hosting service determined they had an edge server that was faulting.  Their edge servers were automatically assigned by geography which meant
    that depending on how/where we accessed the system for troubleshooting we used a different edge server.  Hence some tests always failed and others always passed.  FYI the hosting service had this problem for over a month and did not detect it
    themselves.  Fortunately we connected with a dedicated service technician late on a Saturday night and he figured it out.
