UCCX 7.0.1SR5 to 8.0 upgrade while also adding LDAP integration for CUCM - what happens to agents and Historical Reporting data?

Current State:
•    I have a customer running CUCM 6.1 and UCCX 7.01SR5.  Currently their CUCM is *NOT* LDAP integrated and using local accounts only.  UCCX is AXL integrated to CUCM as usual and is pulling users from CUCM and using CUCM for login validation for CAD.
•    The local user accounts in CUCM currently match the naming format in active directory (John Smith in CUCM is jsmith and John Smith is jsmith in AD)
Goal:
•    Upgrade software versions and migrate to new hardware for UCCX
•    LDAP integrate the CUCM users
Desired Future State and Proposed Upgrade Method
Using the UCCX Pre Upgrade Tool (PUT), backup the current UCCX 7.01 server. 
Then during a weekend maintenance window……
•    Upgrade the CUCM cluster from 6.1 to 8.0 in 2 step process
•    Integrate the CUCM cluster to corporate active directory (LDAP) - sync the same users that were present before, associate with physical phones, select the same ACD/UCCX line under the users settings as before
•    Then build UCCX 8.0 server on new hardware and stop at the initial setup stage
•    Restore the data from the UCCX PUT tool
•    Continue setup per documentation
At this point does UCCX see these agents as the same as they were before?
Is the historical reporting data the same with regards to agent John Smith (local CUCM user) from last week and agent John Smith (LDAP imported CUCM user) from this week ?
I have the feeling that UCCX will see the agents as different almost as if there is a unique identifier that's used in addition to the simple user name.
We can simplify this question along these lines
Starting at the beginning with CUCM 6.1 (local users) and UCCX 7.01.  Let's say the customer decided to LDAP integrate the CUCM users and not upgrade any software. 
If I follow the same steps with re-associating the users to devices and selecting the ACD/UCCX extension, what happens? 
I would guess that UCCX would see all the users it knew about get deleted (making them inactive agents) and the see a whole group of new agents get created.
What would historical reporting show in this case?  A set of old agents and a set of new agents treated differently?
Has anyone run into this before?
Is my goal possible while keeping the agent configuration and HR data as it was before?

I was doing some more research looking at the DB schema for UCCX 8.
Looking at the Resource table in UCCX, it looks like there is primary key that represents each user.
My question, is this key replicated from CUCM or created locally when the user is imported into UCCX?
How does UCCX determine if user account jsmith in CUCM, when it’s a local account, is different than user account jsmith in CUCM that is LDAP imported?
Would it be possible (with TAC's help most likely) to edit this field back to the previous values so that AQM and historical reporting would think the user accounts are the same?
Database table name: Resource
The Unified CCX system creates a new record in the Resource table when the Unified CCX system retrieves agent information from the Unified CM.
A Resource record contains information about the resource (agent). One such record exists for each active and inactive resource. When a resource is deleted, the old record is flagged as inactive; when a resource is updated, a new record is created and the old one is flagged as inactive.

  • Hi, today I upgraded my iphone 4 to an iphone 5. I backed up and synced my data on itunes and icloud. My new iphone however reverted to my 2011 phone settings. how do i get yesterday's settings back and get my contacts and photos from icloud onto new phon

    Just to give you a bit more detail. I upgraded my iphone 4 to an iphone 5 today. Last night I backed up and synced all my messages, photos and contacts on itunes and icloud. When I connected the new iphone 5 to itunes today, it somehow reverted back to my old phone settings from 2011 :S So now, I have apps, particularly games, that are incomplete. My contacts have numbers that are out of date and I have none of the photos that were taken in the past year. My 2012 messages are gone and old messages from 2011 are there. Now, all my phone data had been regularly stored and synced with itunes and icloud. So why did it revert back to 2011 phone settings and how can I get it to change to the settings that existed last night? Also all my information on icloud, how do I get that onto my new iphone? If I go on www.icloud.com and sign in, all my photos, contacts, mail and messages are there, but I have no idea how to transfer that to my new iphone 5. Any help on all of these issues would be appreciated, thanks.

    In Regards to this, You possibly wont be able to get the contacts from the iPhone 4 unless there is a back up file on your computer.
    The original phone would be disabled due to alot of attempts of the wrong passcode. If all your contacts are on the cloud at the moment, you would be able to just set the iPhone 4S up with iCloud on it then Turn On "Contacts".
    This would be bring all the contacts down from your iCloud onto your 4S.
    But you will only be able to merge your contacts with the cloud when your original iPhone either has been enabled or the passcode was entered.
    If you have previously already had iCloud on that device and have contacts Turned on, you will be able to just enter the same Apple ID you used for iCLoud on your original phone and use it on your new one.
    Your able to check what content your iCloud holds via www.icloud.com
    If you are unable to get past the disabled screen, then unfortunately the device will have to be put into recovery mode and then restored via iTunes NOTE: This will delete all data.

  • Upgrade CS4 design premium to CS5.5 standard, what happens with my web apps?

    Hi,
    I'm planning to upgrade my CS4 design premium to CS5.5 design standard, but I still like to use Dreamweaver from the CS4. Does anyone know if this is possible. I've chatted with an Adobe sales employe who said I can only upgrade to CS5.5 design premium in order to keep using dreamweaver but I read that other people are using different versions of CS simultanously on 1 computer. Any thoughts?
    Thanks alot!

    I respectfully disagree. The license includes a stipulation that you can continue to use the earlier version during a transition period. There is no set time limit there. I have CS3, CS4, CS5 and CS5.5 installed.

  • Upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard, what happens with iTunes and iPhoto?

    OKay, I picked up a Mac Boxed Set this weekend and I want to do the upgrade, with a clean install. Since I have never done this before, I don't know how it works. I plan to make a bootable backup onto a USB drive using Carbon Copy Cloner, and then transfer those settings back to my iMac once Snow Leopard is installed, but will that include all of my iTunes and iPhoto content? If anyone can let me know how that works I would appreciate it! THanks!
    Branden

    iTunes is updated to the version on the Snow Leopard installer disc. Nothing happens to iPhoto as it's part of iLife, not OS X.
    If you erase the target drive then install Snow Leopard, you can use Migration Assistant to migrate your Home folder, third-party applications and support files, and network settings from your bootable backup.

    Thank You!  Yes, I am aware of CSCup83263.  Even opened a TAC case to see if there is anything that can be done ahead of time to determine if I will run into this issue or a work around.  I am told there is nothing that can be done and when if it occurs, call TAC. 

  • Historical Reporting UCCX 8.5 (1)

                       Help Help Help !!!!! Urgent
    we have meeting with client who is running UCCX7.0 and needs to upgrade UCCX8.5 (1). The question he migh ask about historical reporting. If they backup the current UCCX 7.0 historic reports data on sql 7 , How we restore to new UCCX 8.5 ?? How reporting in UCCX 8.5 (1) works ? What sort of reports store on UCCX historix reporting section? How it is true that historical reporting stores inside UCCX 8.5 (1) box ?? Please provide little introduction about reporting in related to above scenario. Thanks

    HI Hafiz,
    UCCX 7.0 uses SQL databases to save the historcal data, and UCCX 8.x versions use Informix DB to save the historical data.
    When you perform the UCCX 7.0(1)_SR5 upgrade to UCCX 8.5(1), using Windows to Linux upgrade (or W1 upgrade) it takes the backup of the entire UCCX 7.0(1)_SR5 box using PUT (Pre Upgrade Tool) including your historical data.
    As part of the restore, you need to install the UCCX 8.5 freshly, and restore the earlier backed up data which will restore your Historical data as well.
    Please refer the below upgrade link for the step by step procedure of this upgrade path,
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cust_contact/contact_center/crs/express_8_5/installation/guide/uccx851_ug.pdf
    Please note that you need to upgrade the HRCclient (by uninstalling the older version and installing it newly from the UCCX 8.5 system) to view the HRC reports in UCCX 8.5 version.
    Hope it helps.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wrieless router.
    Step 1
    Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
    Step 2
    Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 3
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 4
    Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
    Step 5
    In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
    Step 6
    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 7
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 8
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    Step 9
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

  • UCCX 8.0 - Will not allow user response while user is hearing the MOH program

                       Is it possible within a UCCX script, to allow a user to opt out (i.e. press 1 to go to the operator, 2 for vm..etc) during the queue delay of 30 seconds within a script.  It is set to allow interruptible.

    I would create a single wav file with both music on hold and your prompts in. Say 30 seconds of music followed by "all of our agents are busy. Press 1 for the operator, press 2 for voicemail"
    Audacity works well as a free audio editor for G711.
    Play your wav file in the prompt tab of the menu step.
    I would de-queue the call after it has been transferred. That way your caller will stay in the queue if the transfer fails.
    Calls that transfer away from the queue will be marked as de-queued and will show up in the supervisor screen and historical reports.

  • UCCX 5.0 - 8.0 using pre-upgrade tool

    Hi,
    We're upgrading from 5.0(2) to 8.0. We've used the Pre-Upgrade Tool to create a TAR file on the production UCCX. From the replacement server we've selected "Upgrade from a previous UCCX release". The Pre-Upgrade Tool ran without issue and the log file shows no errors.
    The status message shows: "Enter a valid backup file"
    We know the sftp server is setup correctly and the user credentials are correct.
    Any feedback welcome.Many thanks.

    The Pre-Upgrade Tool also have the option to verify the backup file. Try running the verification and see if it works:

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cust_contact/contact_center/crs/express_8_0/installation/guide/uccx801ig.pdf
    Also what are the exact UCCX versions 5.0(2) SR? and going to 8.0(1) or 8.0(2)? there is one upgrade tool for 8.0(1) and another for 8.0(2), make sure you are running the right one.

  • UCCX 9.0(2) Historical reports

    We recently upgraded to UCCX 9.0(2) and now use the CUIC for historical reports.  So far it seems like a step backwards in terms of ease of use and flexibility in running various reports.
    Our Call Center is open from 7 AM to 7 PM M-F.  I want to run a CSQ activity report that shows the number of inbound calls after 5 PM over the last 60 days.  Seems fairly straight forward, but have not been able to figure out how to capture this information.  I choose the absolute time frame of 4/23/14 to 6/23/14 (60 days) and then choose the starting time as 5 PM and ending time as 11:59 PM.  This gives me results that I know are not correct as the volume is extremely high.  I believe what the report is capturing is from 5 PM on 4/23 and running through 11:59 PM on 6/23.
    Anyone know how to run report to capture the data I am looking for?  Thanks in advance.

    It was working when using together with HRC? By any change it was a customized reporting?
    If not mistaken there was a recent post on how to customize it to only capture calls during office hours and non office hour
    Thanks!

    Does anyone know why this may be happening as it's driving the customer mad. User can usually login after a few attempts.
    The authentication timeout is set to 15 seconds, surely this is more than enough time or should we increase the timer?
    Any advice much appreciated.

    Hi Robert
    Thanks for the response and all very good suggestions which should help Chris narrow down his particular issue.
    It's been about a year since we last looked at this so I'd quite forgotten most of the diagnostics we'd done however we did go through most of the same diagnostics ourselves but the resolution was hampered due to the fact we support the telephony/WAN and another third party supports the desktops and LAN infrastructure so after months of to and fro with the customer and their third party (and many, many man hours) we eventually left the risk with the customer and investigations never progressed any further.
    1.) Upgrade to UCCX 7.0SR5.  This is a very stable release of code with few open bugs or caveats against it.
                - Agreed. We also ran into other bugs which required an upgrade.
    2.) Verify that the active NIC is indeed at the top of the bindings order.  Just having it active isn't enough, there needs to be the further test of moving to the top of the bindings order.
                - We did check this.
    3.) Verify that the hosts file on the UCCX server(s) has the external IP and hostname of the server in it.
                - Did this too.
    4.) Check the remote locations to verify that the network is correctly configured, there are no line errors on the WAN circuits, no misconfiguration on the switch/router ports and that QOS is in place across the network.
                - This part of the investigation stalled due to another 3rd party supporting the onsite network however no WAN issues were found.
    5.) Try to take a test system that is on the same network as the one having HRC errors.  See if it's seeing the issues.  If not, progressively move out to other offices/locations until you replicate the issue and then see what has changed.  Something there should hopefully point to the cause of the error.
                - We did this also, using my laptop I connected from various locations and even when using the same network connection as the end user had no problems, we did note the successful connection attempts used a slightly different network route/DNS/WINS however again got nowhere with the third party supporting this aspect of the network.
    6.) Finally, you may want to consider creating external data warehouse servers so that your UCCX servers aren't serving up the HRC data.
                - Not an option for this customer, again this aspect of the service is a different third party on their own network and customer not willing to pay for additional servers for the telephony estate to provide this functionality when they only have a few CCX users.

  • UCCX 8 Historical Reporting export

    I am currently running UCCX 5 and using the MS SQL data export feature to dump the historical reporting tables to an external MS SQL database nightly.  I am planning an upgrade to UCCX 8, but because 8 now uses the Informix database the historical database export does not seem to be an option anymore.
    Is there an AXL script or some other mechanisim that can be used to run this export?
    Thanks

    Hi Michael,
    I think the AXL interface is provided only for CUCM (CallManager) and not for UCCX at this moment. In case of UCCX8 it would be nice to have such a powerful tool to get and set configuration settings or initiate SQL queries against UCCX database like in case of CUCM.
    Maybe an insider from Cisco knows the answer to the question will be implemented in a later version of UCCX the connectivity trough AXL like for CUCM.
    Regarding your problem you can connect to Informix database of UCCX8 trough ODBC.
    A small target application that connects to both databases could do dump for you needed data.
    I hope this help you...

  • UCCX 9.x Historical reports

    Hi
    I am experiencing installing the Historical Reports Application on a server running Windows 2003.
    Even in compatability mode, the application fails with a message that it is not supported and that it has to be installed on Server 2000, Windows XP or Windows 7.
    UCCX Version 7 worked on this exact server without issues.
    I have tried doing a fresh install of version 9 and even an upgrade from 7 to 9, but both fail.
    thanks              

    Are you referring to Cisco Historical Reporting Client (HRC)?
    a) This is client (supervisor/manager) application and should be installed on their PC/laptop which is most likely running XP / 7
    b) Are you aware of the availability of CUIC in UCCX v9 onwards? That is something to explore and it will automatically elimate any OS dependencies since its web based

  • UCCX Historical Reports

    Do any of you know whether custom reports/queries configured using the Historical Reporting plugin with UCCX can be saved when you upgrade from IPCX 4.x to UCCX 5.x? We are finalizing the SoW for Compass Group and that is one of their questions. The Supervisors want to know if their custom queries will work after the upgrade. I'm assuming they will have to download the new Historical Report plugin after the upgrade?

    You will have to re-install the new version of HR, if they have altered their list
    of standard reports you'll have to save the .xml file and load it back into the new version.
