Unity Connection policy trigger time?

Does anyone know, upon enabling the aging policy, how soon after enabling does it kicks in? Wonder if there is a timer it cycles through in a 24 hr period?
Thanks

Interesting, thanks for the clarification! I played around with it some more, I tested disabling message aging entirely (not having messages go to the deleted items folder) and that one took effect right away, any new messages that were deleted were purged immediately. However, if there were pre-existing messages in the deleted items folder, those didn't get removed and seemed to be using the ;pre-existing policy. +5 for you as well!

Unity Connection Operator Transfer to UCCX Trigger

I have a customer with the following scenario...
A caller calls (either directly or through transfer) to a personal line, and is transferred to voicemail.
The '0' option is set to transfer to Operator on the Unity Connections system.
They want the caller to be transferred to the UCCX queue if they press '0'.
Here is what is configured:
The Operator Call Handler has Transfer Rules set to transfer to Extension (2504) and Release to Switch.
2504-Internal is a Translation Pattern to 5200-IPCC which is the UCCX Trigger.
Here is what happens:
I call the personal line, and get diverted to Voicemail.
I begin hearing the personal greeting, and press '0'.
I hear the 'Please wait while I transfer your call' prompt'.
I hear the initial prompt of the Call Center script.
I begin hearing the in queue hold message while waiting on an agent.
At this point we would think all is fine, and that things are working as desired.
However, some timeout occurs, and the call reverts to the Unity Connection handler.
I hear that 'The Operator is not available' and the call follows the Transfer Rule, and re-transfers me to the UCCX script.
Unless an agent can answer my call quickly enough, I do not remain in queue but bounce back to Unity and then transfer again to UCCX as a fresh call in queue.
Any thoughts on where to look, or a method to troubleshoot this scenario would be appreciated.

Does your AEF script impose a two-second delay prior to the Accept step when the call is coming from CXN? There is a JTAPI race condition that can cause this if the MIVR engine answers the call immediately vs. waiting two seconds or half a ring.

Best Practices for Setting up MailBox Quotas in Unity Connection.

Hi all,
I've just completed migrating from Unity 4.0.5 to Unity Connection 8.0.2c and all seems to be working well at the moment. I am looking into setting up quotas for subscriber mailboxes and I would like to find out what are the rules of thumb when assigning disc space to user mailboxes ? and How much disc space does it take for a one minute message ?
Thanks in advance for any inputs/suggestions !!!
D.

D. Tran,
Here are some things to consider:
–Mailbox Quotas
•Specifies a mailbox size in MB for Warning, Send, and Send/Receive Quotas on mailboxes
•Can be applied system-wide and customized on a per-user basis (maximum mailbox size is 2GB)
•Default Warning Quota = 12 MB (25 min of recording with G711)
•Default Send Quota = 13 MB (27 min of recording with G711)
•Default Send/Receive Quota = 14 MB (29 min of recording with G711)
When you use G711, the space requirements for a message are:
•480Kb/min when using G.711
–Message Aging Policy
•If enabled, it applies system-wide but can be disabled on a per-user basis.
•If disabled, no message aging policies are applied and cannot be enabled on a per-user basis.
Should you need to be more aggressive in your Message Aging Policy, you can optionally choose to move saved messages to the Deleted Items folder within a specified timeframe. This is disabled by default.
I typically recommend giving users access to the deleted items (it allows them to access deleted messages for a period of time after they delete them). This is set in the Class of Service here:
–Class of Service > Message Options > Uncheck “Delete Messages Without Saving to Deleted Items Folder”
Hope this helps.

Unity Connections IMAP Account Creation in Outlook

Does anyone know if there is a way in Microsoft land to push out the IMAP accounts for Unity Connections. Something through group policy maybe where we didn't have to go out to all 1500 users and create a new IMAP account in outlook.
Thank you

That will be interesting. I have yet to see a third party product to do this. Yet... I have not really look either. Its downfall of using IMAP and Exchange at the same time.... there is no way to auto create the IMAP account. Exchange is easy because it prompts the user to enter in their name and boom, its done.

Unity Connection 8.5 message aging

In Unity connection 8.5, if message aging policy "Permanently Delete Messages in the Deleted Items Folder in" is set to N days, does it permanently delete the messages individually exactly N x 24 hours after the message was deleted or does Unity Connection run a purge of all messages past due to be deleted at a specific hour once a day (for example, at midnight).
In other words, if I have it set to 1 day and a message was "deleted" by a user at 1pm today, will Unity Connection purge such message at (1) 1pm tomorrow or (2) some scheduled time tomorrow after 1pm.
Thank you. An answer will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
The Task agent runs every 30 minutes
Hence the message will be deleted as soon as task agent runs after 1 pm Next day.

Unity Connection Voice Mail Only- NO MWI template

I am deploying a site with 8,000 mailboxes. 4,000 of those users are voice mail only without a telephone and will NOT require MWI.
I can manually remove the MWI setting from each mailbox, but I am looking at either a BATCH CSV setting or a TEMPLATE that I can turn OFF mwi when creating the users.
Any ideas?
TIA

Hi there,
This setting change is available via Bulk Edit
Bulk Edit> Messages> Disable MWI functionality for this user
Bulk Edit changed in 8.x from where it was accessed in 7.x.
Here's a clip that speaks to how this is run now. You first search and select all
the users you want to change and then choose Bulk Edit;
To Edit User Account Information in Bulk Edit Mode (some editing from original > this example
is for Caller Input settings but you'll see the point)
Step 1 In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, on the Search Users page, check the applicable user check boxes, and select Bulk Edit.
If the user accounts that you want to edit in bulk do not all appear on one Search page, check all applicable check boxes on the first page, then go to the next page and check all applicable check boxes, and so on, until you have selected all applicable users. Then select Bulk Edit.
Step 2 On the Edit Caller Input page, change settings as applicable.
Note The Status message at the top of the Edit Caller Input page tells you how many user accounts are being edited. Also note that the page is populated only with the fields that you are allowed to edit in bulk mode, and that the fields available for edit also depend on whether all of the user accounts reside on the local server.
Step 3 If applicable, set the Bulk Edit Task Scheduling Fields to schedule the Bulk Edit operation for a later date and/or time.
Step 4 Select Submit.
Step 5 If applicable, continue to change settings for these user accounts on the related pages available from the Edit menu. As you make changes on each page, select Submit before going on to the next page to make additional changes.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/user_mac/guide/8xcucmac090.html#wp1049545
Try a couple of test users first to come up with the exact plan.
If you prefer you can also use Bulk Edit via .csv
As a test here I tried the Bulk Edit and chose;
User with Voicemail > Users referenced in this CSV file > Next
This then allowed me to browse to an existing "basic" .csv that I had
used to create a test user recently when playing with BAT. In this .csv
I had one user named Bob Uncle with DN/ext 5126. So when I used this method
the Bulk Edit tool (smart puppy ) selected only Bob Uncle for my edit choices
and I was able to change the Disable MWI functionality for this user
Again, please try manipulating some test users to perfect
your methodology.
I have attached the test .csv I used
Cheers!
Rob

Unity Connection Voice Mail Issue

Hi,
I have a weird Unity Connection Voice Mail issue and would appriciate any help i can get. Many thanks in advance.
I have Unity connection 7.0 and CUCM 7.0 integrated in a lab enviroment and here is what happens.
When I place a call internally say from 2001 to 2002, things work as expected, 2002 rings and it goes to voicemail where I can leave voicemail and listen to it from 2002.
However, if I place call from the PSTN to the same number 2002 (or any other number in other sites etc) the call again rings in 2002 and goes to voicemail, unity cnx plays the greetings for 2002 and says record your message as usual. Everything up to point is fine, then when the time on the PSTN phone is showing around 14 seconds into the call unity starts playing, "to send this message press one", if I press one nothing happens.
I have rebuilt unity and cucm, even just configured the bare minimum in the lab and still getting the same result. I tried calling from E1 connection and T1 connection but with the same results.
I have run out of ideas...

Sounds like one way audio from PSTN to your Unity Connection, couple of things to check:
1. ensure your protocols are bound properly on the GW, i.e. SIP/H323/MGCP
2. Make sure IP routing is OK between Unity and the voice gateway

Call forward to unity connection call handler

have the following setup:
cucm 8.6
cuc 8.6
a cti route point (DN 1000 )with forward all to unity connection call handler.
phone users who choose to have some quiet time can forward all their calls to the cti rp.
1. i need to allow only specfic DNs the ability to forward to the cti rp.
2. at times that the allowed DNs didnt choose to forward to cti rp then normal behaviour should occur - busy or unanswerd calls should go to DNs personal voice mail.
thanks

You can assign a specific partition to cti-rp and assign it to a CSS and this CSS should be assigned to those users (at call forward settings in line) only to whom you are trying to give this facility and for other users you can
or you can create a TP for it with specific partition and set the called number as per voice mail.

Unity Connection 8.6 call transfer to non-unity extension

I have converted from Unity to Unity Connection and am looking for a solution for transferring an incoming call to a non-unity user extension.
Here is the scenario: An PSTN caller calls in and is directed to a Unity Connection Call Handler or a Subscriber greeting. In the greeting they are advised that if they know the extension they want to call, they can dial it at any time. Here is the rub, if they dial an extension for a user listed in Unity Connection, the call gets transferred to the extension. However, if the extension dialed is to an extension that is not a Unity Connection User, the attendant comes back and say the extension is not understood.
In Unity before conversion, I would make an internet user that did not have a mailbox but was listed with an extension. However, with Unity Connection, I am using LDAP integration with Microsoft AD and I don't see a method of doing the same thing.
Is anyone else doing something like this or know of a method to do it?
Thanks in advance.
Gene Keel

In the greeting check this box:
Allow Transfers to Numbers Not Associated with Users or Call Handlers
also make sure the number entered by the call is allowed in Default System Transfer restriction table.

Unity Connection 8.6.2 report error and issues

Hello,
I found some other hits on this error and tried the workarounds (restarting tomcat, and report data harvester) but am still getting "Unable to find any report data based on parameter(s)" for a certain timeframe on multiple reports when I know activity occurred in that timeframe.
User Phone login report, Outcall Billing Detail Report, others.
CUC version is 8.6.2.20000-2
Problem is during this timeframe someone dialed into system and changed the transfer extensions to various LD numbers throughout an entire day and the reports aren't showing these outcalls. Call Manager CDR data show the calls being placed from Unity VM ports and the Unity Conversation Manager traces I grabbed for the timeframe show the calls to those numbers to. I'm just trying to match up with a report and figure out if there is some other log or trace file I can look to determine for sure the caller logged in to the voicemail box and changed the transfer extension on it. (guessed the voicemaill password). The failed log in report doesn't even show the failed login attempt in output from traces below. The transfer extension dest addr was different on the transfers on this same mailbox. Have locked down the system since but want to get better grip on this with the reports and traces.
I looked over the CUC 8.6.2 SU1 and SU2 release notes and not seeing any resolved bugs for these matters either.
Here are some samples lines from Conversation Manager traces:

Hello ebergquist,
As advised we could try to run a report before an upgrade was performed to verify if it will pull the information, which in the event it does we would be matching the bug, therefore access the CUC CLI and type the following command: file get install *
You will be required to have an SFTP available for the file transfer and port 22 open on the sftp client.
Once you receive the files you would need to check system-history.log, below is an example.
=======================================
Product Name -    Cisco Unity Connection
Product Version - 8.5.1.12900-7
Kernel Image -    2.6.9-89.0.20.EL
=======================================
02/24/2013 13:35:02 | root: Boot 8.5.1.12900-7 Start
02/24/2013 16:03:45 | root: Install 8.5.1.12900-7 Success
Once you check the time stamp and date of the upgrade try to gather a report for a time range before the upgrade was performed, even though they might be overwritten, there still could be a possibility that it succeeds.
If this bug is not the issue then you might want to take into consideration:
1. Make sure that the service ReportDB is [STARTED] in the output of the command: utils service list.
2. If you have Digital Networking on your server make sure there is no stalled replication. Go to RTMT (Real Time Monitoring Tool)> Syslogs> Select on the dropdown your server> Doble click on Application logs> CiscoSyslog. You can then do a manual search or sort with the filter option:
Severity: Error
App ID: CuReplicator
Hit apply. Below is an example:
Date: Feb 19 08:01:15
Machine Name: LAB1111
Severity: Error
App ID: CuReplicator
Message: : 1151681: LAB1111.corpnet2.com: Feb 19 2013 08:01:11.662 UTC : UC_UCEVNT-3-EvtReplicatorStalledReceiveReplication %[ClusterID=][NodeID=LAB1111]: Detected stalled replication receiving from location LAB1111. Waiting for missing USN 2222. This situation may indicate network connectivity problems.
3.Make sure that replication is working properly in the cluster. You can check them via the following commands: showcuc cluster status    and   utils dbreplcation runtimestate
For the TransferEx that you state changed to ceros -> TransferEx=0x00000000=S_OK , this is just a hexadecimal value that is returned stating that the transfer that took place during the call was successful, in this case the actual transfer was to the following destination -> TransferEx destAddr='715551231234', and was during a call to ->calledID='555123' , this does not have to do with the actual change of a transfer number performed by a user.
Those traces won't be enough you will have to additionally set: ConvSub, level 3   and CDE, level 16 so that you may see output in the traces as the example posted in the previous thread.
Traces would be the path to follow in order to verify the user that changed the transfer rule, as this is as i understand the goal your pursuing.
However if it is of any help, another way to get on hold of the numbers that were updated on the Transfer Rule is to use the User Data Dump tool, this information reflects changes regardless of whether it was done via TUI (Telephone User Interface) or GUI (Graphic User Interface). For more information on the tool go to:
http://ciscounitytools.com/Applications/CxN/UserDataDump/Help/UserDataDump.htm
Traces are extensive to be reviewed if done manually, however you can do a text search with a tool as Notepad ++ to look for keywords as "NewTransferNumber =" or "CDE,16,Transfer allowed", once you find this you check the call GUIDwhich is the reference number of the call and that exists during the entire length of the call, whether it is while a person is leaving a voicemail or the user is accessing his/her's inbox. This would speed up your search.
So as explained in the first thread you would then do another text search returning all possible matches with that callGUID.
Now if you get to the very beginning of the call you would see something like:
Line 13712: 18:58:05.156 |24720,CCIE-1-001,0C9C97BDF5F444F0B535D231C32DDCB4,Arbiter,-1,Incoming Call [callerID='2199' callerName='' calledID='6789' redirectingID='' lastRedirectingID='' reason=1=DirectlastReason=1024=Unknown] port=CCIE-1-001 portsInUse=1 ansPortsFree=1callGuid=0C9C97BDF5F444F0B535D231C32DDCB4
In this example you see my test user callerID='2199' calling the Pilot number 6789 which is the voicemail button
calledID='6789, and the what type of call is it whether Forward or Direct, when logging to voicemail you are going to see Direct which is going to match the Direct Routing Rules and send the call to the attempt sign in conversation.
The other approach is a rule out method between the Audit traces and the User Data Dump tool.
So let's say you have a baseline document that states all of the Transfer numbers for all users.
If the User Data Dump reflects a different number and the Audit logs do not show any change, starting from the time the baseline was created and the point of time where the number was changed, then you could deduce the change was done via TUI (Telephone User Interface). Unfortunately you wouldn't be able to tell who did the change in this case.
Nevertheless, remember that a user may have for example an Alternate Extension so the change might not necessarily be done from the office phone: "Alternate extensions can make calling Cisco Unity Connection from an alternate device—such as a mobile phone, a home phone, or a phone at another work site—more convenient. When you specify the phone number for an alternative extension, Connection handles all calls from that number in the same way that it handles calls from a primary extension (assuming that ANI or caller ID is passed along to Connection from the phone system). This means that Connection associates the alternate phone number with the user account, and when a call comes from that number, Connection prompts the user to enter a PIN and sign in."

How to set-up voice mail to email on Unity Connection 8.6

Hi all,
I need to set-up voice mail to email notification on a Unity Connection 8.6 MCS78XX server. I've read several existing threads related to the subject, but have had somewhat of a difficult time finding a posting that provided a simplified approach with either or both of the options listed below. I'm hoping and asking to receive a response (or responses) that will break it down.
The intent is to either:
A) Have new voice mail messages sent to end-user's e-mail inboxes as .wav files.
B) Have notifications be e-mailed to end-user's inboxes whenever there is a new voice mail.
Cisco Unity Single Inbox is not the preferred method at this point.
I thank you all for your input and assistance!

Manish, if I may... I read the 2nd thread and it mentions the addition of the Exchange IP address under the smart host field... and it appears that the Exchange will also need the IP address of the Unity Connection server for relay...
question: under the Unity SMTP config options --> Server --> SMTP Domain --> can/should this be changed over to the Unity's IP address in an environment where the Unity Server's name is not resolvable? The Unity Server in this case is not configured with DNS... please advise
Thank you again!

How to delete multiple messages in the same mailbox all at once? Unity Connection

I just was assigned the task of administrating three Unity Connection servers that are networked. The Operator mailboxes on each system have been taking messages since 2010 and have over 5 thousand messages in them (nearly 3 mega bytes). I've corrected the set up so the mailboxes no longer are taking messages, but would like to delete all the new messages in order free up memory resources, and I don't want to undo all the Call Handler relationships in order to delete the mailboxes and then recreate them, etc. I used the PCA tool to clean up the Operator MBX on a standalone Unity Connection that had nearly 1800 messages, but it took nearly 30 minutes for the PCA tool to load and another 4.5 hours to delete one message at a time (major carpal tunnel afterwards!). For these mailboxes with 5-6K messages, the PCA tool was not loaded after 3 hours!   Is there a faster, more efficient tool for deleting all new messages in a single mailbox? (i.e., Message Hunter?)

Hi There,
+5 to heath for his good notes!
One nice way with Unity Connection is with the use of this excellent tool from the great suite of Unity Tools (use the ** reset" feature **).
Unity Connection Bulk User Delete
For resetting users you have the option of emptying the mailbox, resetting greetings, deleting voice names, resetting passwords, removing private lists and a number of other options you may choose.   For installations where the user base “changes over” frequently such as schools this may be a nicer option. This option is also allowed for CoRes installations since it does not involve the removal of user objects from the Connection database.

ERROR WHILE FORWARDING VOICE MESSAGE FROM NOTES VIEWMAIL TO ANOTHER VOICEMAIL USER IN UNITY CONNECTION

Hello All,
I am facing problem while replying/forwarding or sending a NEW Voice Message from ViewMail integrated with IBM LOTUS Notes 8.5 to the other Voice Mail User Configured in Cisco Unity Connection.The ViewMail Version is 8.0.2 for IBM LOTUS Notes.UC version is 8.x
I have attached the file that displays the error.
From the view mail inbox if i "Right Click" any email and the "Click ON Forward" I am able to forward the Voice Message from the ViewMail to the IBM LOTUS Domino user [ that is forwarding it to EMAIL Account ], but if I try to forward it to unity user is gives "Failure Delivery".
Now when I double click the individual voice mail message in ViewMail account and then click on "Forward/reply/NewMemo" icon available on the individual voice message window that I have opened ,I get an error as stated below
"The remote name could not be resolved error in Notes ViewMail 10.0.0.152e_vmws_gen_property_not_found "
where 10.0.0.152 is the IP-Address of my Unity Connection Server.
Also just for the information I am able to Login into Cisco PCA for alll the users and able to view the Inbox.
I am able to forward the VoiceMessages between Unity Connection users via CISCO PCA without facing any issue.
A Quick Help will be much appreciated .......... :-)

Hello Craig,
After spending sometime on troubleshooting , just for testing purpose I created two new Unity Connection Voice Mail User and configured VMN [VoiceMail for Notes] account on the same lotus Notes.
Interestingly this time I was able to use Reply & Reply to All option to send the Voice Message via VMN. {WORKING JUST FINE,NO PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER ]
But still I am NOT able to use Forward option to send the Voice Messages via VMN.
REPLY WITH HISTORY & REPLY TO ALL WITH HISTORY options are also not working.
This is error that I am getting
"Error in QueryServe in CoreUCClasses 213 at line 336:Vmws:The remote server returned an error:(403) Forbidden
I HAVE CREATED VIDEO RECORDING FOR THIS ERROR & WORKING PART OF THE CONFIG TO GIVE YOU A BETTER IDEA OF THE PROBLEM.
Its 7 MB Recording. I hope you can easily Download.
Also important point is that i don't see any previous error that was accuring during my earlier testing.
Thanks & Regards,
Hasan Jafri

Issue with transferring calls to VM for the correct DN Unity Connection 9.1.2

Hi all
I have been facing an issue with a Unity Connection Server v9.1.2. Every time an internal extension (assigned to VM profile and to Unity as a user) which is configured to be transferred to VM after 20 sec or so NoAN,is called , Unity treats the call as the extension of the calling party and not the called party. Furthermore , I dont know if this has any relation with the problem I am facing but when I check the voicemail port status in RTMT its seems like that regardless it is a direct call to the Unity from an extension (dial the pilot number or press the messages button on the IP phone) or a redirected call from an extension to Unity due to NoAN configuration, the Reason is Direct and the caller party number is always the extension initiated the call and not the one redirected to the Unity (second case).
I have changed the Use Last (Rather than First) Redirecting Number for Routing Incoming Call Unity parameter in the
System Settings > Advanced >Conversations -> checked and
Redirecting Diversion Header Delivery - Outbound CUCM parameter ->checked
in the SIP Trunk configuration used for the integraton of the CUCM with Unity but none of those seem to address this issue. Is there any guidelines you can give me to overcome this issue?
The servers I am using are
CUCM v9.1.2 BE
CUC v9.1.2 BE
Thank You in Advance

Hello again,
The Voice Mail Box Mask was blank before. However I tried XXXX (I use 4-digit extension for the VM pilot) but this did not seem to fix anything to the system....Same situation as before. Any more suggestions?
Thank you

Upgrading Unity Connection from 7.1.5 to 8.5.1 - not working

I am attempting to upgrade our unity connection boxes from 7.1.5 to 8.5.1.
I have legacy MCS 7845H2 - It has 4 disks - 2 mirrors of 72gb disks. 4mb of RAM and 2 X 2.3ghz processors
I have UCS C210 VMWare Hosts.
I have attempted 2 migration methods.
The first method involves - upgrading the existing system and restoring a backup of this to a VM
This fails with a hardware compatablity check.
The second method involves - backup existing systen - build VM at same level (using recommending OVA) - restore data onto VM - upgrade VM
This fails with a restore problem - I have used 'TITAN' ftp, but please note the backup is < 900mb.
The error is
Physical restore failed - could not fork server connection, SQLCODE -25596
Program over.
Restore failed during Unity Connection DB ontape restore operation.
----> BEGIN Standard Error
/opt/cisco/connection/lib/disaster-recovery/database_do_restore.real.py:32: RuntimeWarning: Python C API version mismatch for module iproduct: This Python has API version 1013, module iproduct has version 1012.
import iproduct
gunzip: stdout: Broken pipe
----> END Standard Error
Has anyone out there attempted to upgrade to 8.5.1 - please let me know how you got on.
Any help or ideas appreciated.
