  • L-UNITY7-UWLA-PAK is it for UNITY server or for a voice gateway

    I need clarification on the following license product :
    L-UNITY7-UWLA-PAK, do I load
    the license on the gateway or on unity server
    , because when I
    registed the product authorization key on cisco webside they asked for the unity servers mac address but in the e-mail they sent with the instruction on how to load the license they talk about the router or the gateway

    I know what you are referring to and that is simply a generic email body that is not specific to individual applications.  Rob is correct, the license will be loaded on the Unity server.  On Unity, you use the License File Wizard found in Unity Tools Depot to upload licenses to the PRIMARY Unity server (I note Primary in case you have a Unity Failover deployment).

  • Cisco Unity 4.2 to Unity Connection 8.5...patch needed?

    Hello All,
    I would like to upgrade my Unity 4.2 to Unity Connection 8.5....(the latest version) however, I'm unsure if I need to do any upgrades on my Unity server first before I run the COBRAS tool and export the data. Is this a direct upgrade or do I need to do any patching on the unity server?
    I've tried to read through the Upgrade guides but, I'm having a hard time getting a direct answer.
    Thanks for any and all help,
    Dan

    David has the correct answer there.   But also, if you can, do not touch your existing 4.2 server.  The last thing you want to do is repair a perfectly working Unity server because you wanted to patch it.   You can install COBRAS on it to export the data no issues.  If its a very large enviroment, Id even go as far as creating a DIRT backup of the Unity 4.2, and a new build of Unity 4.2 offline and DIRT restore so you can work with the data offline from the network.   Some enterprises have crazy change controls and it may save you time in the end, even though it will take a little bit of time build the lab offline.  If you havent used COBRAs, it will take you some time to get used to the import/export on what you want to do, how you want to do it, and how much time it will take to do the work.  The Help files are extremely helpful, along with the Videos posted at ciscounitytools.com
    May the force be with young Cobra importer/exporter

  • Unity Server Update Wizard v.3.0(22) or v.3.0(20)

    I would like to find out what updates are contained within the following:
    Unity Server Update Wizard version 3.0(20)
    Unity Server Update Wizard version 3.0(22)
    Both have the same release date of Dec. 30th, 2011.
    I have checked the http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity/updates/wizard/2011cuupwz.html link, but it hasn't been updated since September.

    Thanks for your response. I guess in my heart of hearts, I'd convinced myself that the Unity SUW was the way to go but with Microsoft issuing "out of band” critical updates (the latest one is for IE if memory serves), it was useful to see what others are doing.
    I'll follow your advice and stick with Cisco

    Hi Ajay,
    when you upgrade to sec mon 2.0.1, the database is the same, but the formats are different.. you need to do somethings for converting these formats, which might take hours together, if ur database has too many events...
    for information to convert the file format, refer to this URL:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/cscowork/ps3990/prod_release_note09186a0080386f72.html#wp1087204
    see the section "Using the ConvertAndImport.pl Script after Upgrading from Security Monitor 1.2.3 to Security Monitor 2.0.1 "
    do this and see.. let us know

  • Cisco ACS Server

    Hi
    I have at present a Cisco ACS server 3.3. I want to upgrade the server to latest version and also cluster it with another one so that we could have a redundant infrastructure as if one fails the other one takes over ..
    CAn you provide a suitable solution for this ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    The Latest version is ACS 4.1. You can upgrade from 3.3.3 build 11 directly to 4.1.
    Then you can install another ACS 4.1 on different machine and setup replication between these two. This way you will have to make changes only on one ACS and the secondary will automatically get updated.
    Once these two are set, you can define both of these server as Radius/Tacacs server on the devices and there would be a redundancy.

    Vivek

    end

    The first AAA server listed in your config will always be used unless/until it becomes unavailable. At that point the NAD would move down to the next AAA server defined on the list and use that one until it becomes unavailable and then move to third one, and so on. 
    If you want to use two AAA servers at the same time then you will need to put a load balancer in front of them. Then the virtual IP (vip) will be listed in the NADs vs the individual AAA servers' IPs. 
    I hope this helps!

  • I want to upgrade the IOS of my Cisco 2821 from Version 12.4(11) to v 15.1 (XB), but I have CCME v 4.2 (0), is there any problem if I only upgrade the IOS and leave the CCME as it ?

    Thanks

    CME is part of the IOS, so you can't upgrade the IOS seperately from CME.
    That said, if this is a production environment you should proceed with caution and be prepared to roll back as you may find bugs, etc.
    You should also look at release notes and make sure your phone firmware will still work or needs to be upgraded too.

    Hi John,
    Do you want to setup the SPA525 on the UC300?  If so the UC300 does not support any VPN or remote users.  If you need configuration help with the UC5XX just let me know.

  • Oracle 11g - Solaris 10 on cisco UCS server

    I would like to know if anyone has experience with installing Oracle databases on cisco UCS servers.  I recently took over a dba shop and my client has purchased a cisco UCS server and is planning on migrating some databases currently on dedicated servers running on Solaris 10 and others running on Linux RH 5.4 platforms.  I need to find out if Oracle 11g and Solaris 10 is compatible and covered by Oracle licenses.  Does anyone have any specs and/or information on this topic?  Thanks in advance.
    Jonathan Begazo-Leon

    Jonathan,
    there's a dedicated Oracle database forum (Database) where you can post your issue. In this forum here only 3rd party to Oracle migrations using the Oracle tools migration workbench or SQL Developer will be covered. As I can't move your thread, please close this one here and post your issue again in the database forum.

    1) Isn't your default route supposed to be pointing towards the external interface?
    ip route 0.0.0.0. 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 ?
    2) Can you change the 'mode client' to 'mode network-extension'. Also the PIX will need 'nem enable'.
    Have a look at the following (I'm assuming you already have as your config seems to be similar):

  • Cisco Content Server (Virtualized Application)

    Hi.
    Can anyone tell me what the hardware requirements are to run a Cisco Content Server virtualised?
    Looking at the below link on table 5 I see that is it availiable as a Virtulized Application but lookinh further online I see nothing that gives hardware specifications required.
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/conferencing/telepresence-content-server/data_sheet_c78-626482.html?cachemode=refresh
    Any advice would be great.

    Your question would be better placed in the TelePresence section of the forums where these devices are more actively discussed than in the Digital Media section you've posted in.
    Given your thread is 11 months old, I'd assume you've found an answer to your problem, but just in case, and for reference for any others that happen to be looking, you can find the specs on what is required on the Cisco docwiki:
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Virtualization_for_Cisco_TelePresence_Content_Server
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_in_a_Virtualized_Environment
    Note: all current versions (up to and including S6.1) do not officailly support running on anything other than Cisco hardware.  S6.2 which is due out in the near future is supposed to include support for running on 3rd party hardware, but as it has not been released yet, at the time of this post, this cannot be confirmed.

  • Cisco NSS server 4000 SNMP setting--can we have snmp version 1 or 2 configured in NSS server?

    I have Cisco NSS server 4000. I want to configure SNMP moniotring for this. my snmp server doesnt support version 3 and it has capability to work with version1 only. can anyone help me to find out how to make NSS server using vesion 1 instead of deafult version which is 3.Moreover, is there any way we could change the snmp community value in NSS server?

    I could be wrong, but you may need to correct or check your asm diskgroups.
    Here is what I have just checked.......
    Looking at the sys.dbms_backup_restore package, but specifially the setdatafileaux spec.....it gets the datafile name from v$datafile
    ******************** below from othe dbms_backup_restore procedure ***********************
    PROCEDURE setDatafileAux( dfnumber IN binary_integer
    ,fname IN varchar2 DEFAULT NULL);
    -- setDbfileAux sets auxilary filename.
    -- Input parameters:
    -- dfnumber
    -- Data file number of a file to alter. This refers to the file that
    -- is currently accessible via SQL commands.
    -- fname
    -- Name of the file to be set as auxfilename.
    ie
    SQL> select file#,name from v$datafile where file#=28

    You might want to login to your asm instance and check the status of your diskgroups you can also check v$asm_diskgroup to ensure they match
