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
Best regards

  • Server Update Wizard for Unity 7

    I can't seem to find any documentation on this, but I'm basically looking for best practices when running the server update wizard.
    For example, should I run the update wizard on the failover server first with the "automatic failover and failback" and "file replication" disabled?
    Any info is appreciated.  Thanks.

    If you have a Unity failover setup with automatic failover configured, then you could safely install updates on the Primary server and allow failover/failback to work as configured.  In this manner, Unity will failover when the server reboots and failover when the server is back online and services are up.  Then when you update the failover server, it just requires install/reboot - i.e., all else is operating normally.  The process can be done in the reverse as well.  Update backup first, then primary.
    As far as best practice is concerned, this is probably flexible since the SUW is usually a pretty benign process.  The best practice would be to perform during off-hours when call volume is low.  You shouldn't need to tweak any failover/failback settings as long as you're operating during an approved window.

  • Unity 5 Software Updates Wizard

    The Untiy SUW download listings for 2010 don't include Untiy 5.0. Does SUW 3.0(3) and 3.0(4) work with Unity 5 also? The latest version listed for Unity 5.0 was 3.0(2), which I have installed.
    Thanks
    Chris

    Yes, the newer versions can be run on Unity 5. See the link below which states:
    The Cisco Unity Server Updates wizard can be run on the following Cisco Unity and
    Cisco Unity–related servers:•
    Cisco Unity 5.x, 7.x, and 8.x servers.

     Some questions:
    Are there any other databases running on this Std Edition SQL service?
    [a] Yes there are, we have Kaspersky enterprise DB, Report Server DB and local application DB.
    Are there any other services running on this WSUS Server?
    [b] Yes there are, we have Active Directory, Kaspersky enterprise, SQL Server 2005, and WSUS all on the same server.
    How many days since your WSUS server was first installed?
    [c] It's been about a year now.
    What is the physical size of the SUSDB.mdf file?
    [d] 9,666,752 KB
    What is the hardware configuration of this machine, including disk drives?
    [e] Intel Xeon 1.86, 2GB Ram, HD C: 39GB - E: 25.2, running Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2.
    How many client systems are you servicing from this WSUS Server?
    [f] Around 40.
    What products/classifications are you synchronizing.
    [g] Windows XP-vista, Windows Server 2003, Office 2003-2007, SQL Server 2005.
    Okay, for starters, you have an underpowered/overextended machine running Active Directory, ASP.NET, and a database server, all on a sub 2GHz CPU with 2GB RAM, and not enough disk spindles. The machine has had WSUS running for about a year and is 9GB in size.
    There's no doubt in my mind that some of your performance issues are directly related to disk and database fragmentation.
    There's also no doubt that some of your performance issues are directly related to memory starvation.
    I'd suggest the following long-term fixes:
    1. Get a second machine. Make it a dedicated database server. Provision it accordingly to support servicing multiple database applications.
    2. Lacking #1, this machine needs more memory. It also needs more disk spindles. At a minimum the databases being serviced should be on a dedicated physical drive; ideally there would be two dedicated drives allocated for supporting database services. The
    For the short-term fixes, do this:
    1. During after-hours time, if you don't already have one, build a temporary machine that can act as a DC/GC, while you take this machine temporarily offline.
    1. Shutdown the Update Services service, SQL Server database engine, and any other services dependent on the SQL Server database engine (Kapersky, and other reporting applications). Disconnect from the network to temporarly eliminate DC traffic. (You could also shutdown the AD services, but disconnecting the network cable is ever-so-much easier.) Defragment ALL drives.
    2. Restart ONLY the SQL Server service. Obtain this SQL script to Reindex the WSUS Databases.
    3. Restart ONLY the Update Services service. Attempt the Server Cleanup Wizard again. Run it in two passes. Pass 1 performing everything except  remove unused updates. Pass 2 running only remove unused updates.
    4. After completion of the Server Cleanup Wizard, reconnect the machine to the network and resume all other services.
    5. If you're able to complete #3, secure the services of a well-qualified DBA to determine if there are any misconfigurations in your SQL Server setup that would account for why your WSUS database is 9GB in size -- such as improperly configured autogrowth parameters. Based on the products you're updating and only forty clients, 9GB is about 3x the maximum size I would expect to see in a WSUS database. It's possible this is simply caused by excess unused updates, it's possible it's caused by fragmentation, it's probable it was caused by unnecessary autogrowth of the database due to insufficient update maintenance. You'll want a DBA to assist you in shrinking that database after you successfully run the Database Maintenance and Server Cleanup Wizard.

  • Simulating the server cleanup wizard from the command line

    We have several servers that run WSUS 3.0 SP2.   Are there command line equivalents (wsusutil, etc.) that perform the same tasks as the server cleanup wizard?  The objective is to set up a scheduled task so that the server cleanup wizard does not have to be run manually.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sergio

    Hi Sergio,
    By default, there is no command line to run server cleanup wizard.
    But you can run this wizard by writing a command-line tool (VB, WSUS SDK)that calls WSUS API.

  • IDE Update Wizard

    Hello
    I'm not able to connect to OTN using the IDE update wizard ("check for updates". Whenever I try, I get the following message:
    "Unable to connect to OTN
    Details: Server returned HTTP response code: 407
    for URL:
    http://profile.oracle.com/jsp/reg.loginHandler.jsp"
    I'm using the correct username and password and my proxy settings are correct.
    Has anyone an idea?

    Hi,
    HTTP status code 407 corresponds to Proxy Authentication Required. You must be behind a proxy server that requires a username / password to connect to the outside world.
    Unfortunately, the HTTP stack inside JDeveloper doesn't support authenticated proxies yet - you'll notice similar problems if trying to use other features in the IDE that need to connect to the outside world (e.g. hosted documentation, web services, UDDI).
    The ER tracking the addition of proxy authentication is 2595331. I've published this so you can track its progress on metalink.oracle.com.

  • Any work on the "Product Update Wizard"?

    Hi,
    As probably the NI engineers are aware, some of us have problems using the “Product Update Wizard” from MAX, if we are on a corporate LAN using secure Internet access.
    More specific, if one is on a corporate LAN that uses a proxi server on a non-standard port (let’s say 3128), that also requires a username / password for Internet access, than the “Product Update Wizard” will fail to connect to the NI webserver.
    Most other application would pop up a window, prompting for user / password, however the “Product Update Wizard” will just say “Unable to communicate with National Instruments web servers – update check failed.”
    Of course, trying to suggest to the IT department to change the Internet access policies for the whole company to get LabVIEW to auto-update would probably get you nowhere. Also, if one has many NI products / toolsets, trying to keep them up to date manually starts to become quite challenging.
    Therefore I was wondering if a solution is available, even if it involves registry editing or any other trick.
    Thanks a lot,
    Sorin

    Hi Sorin,
    When you try to use the update wizard and it fails, it should create a htm file called max.htm or similar (I can't give you the exact filename as when I use the update wizard it works OK and therefore doesn't create this file.
    Try running the update wizard and when it fails, then go off and do a search on your hard drive for max.htm or max.html or anything similar. If you can find it then run the htm file and you should be able to run the update wizard through there.
    If this doesn't work, then please feel free to get back in touch with me and I will investigate other ways we can try and get this working.
    Best regards,
    Peter H.

  • False positive KB2478662 after Server Cleanup Wizard

    This morning WSUS gave me false positives for several clients.  I've seen FPs before, but I've never discovered what causes them.  In fact, I'm finding it hard to even ask a useful question.
    On Friday I ran the WSUS Cleanup Wizard.  On Monday I found that our Server 2008 R2 box and all but two of our Windows 7 boxes report as needing .NET update KB2478662 - a long-superseded update from 2011.
    I ran "wmic qfe list" to learn that neither KB2478662 nor its two superseding patches (KB2633873 and KB2539635) were installed on any of the unhappy clients.  However, KB2972100 supersedes KB2633873 and KB2539635 (but not the earlier KB2478662),
    and is installed on all the clients involved.  KB2972100 is not listed as superseding KB2478662, the earliest in the chain, so it appears this sort of leapfrogging supersession may not be detected well by WSUS.
    However: KB2972100 was installed two months ago, and KB2478662 didn't show before Friday; according to the Microsoft Catalog, none of the update packages has been updated recently; and I'm not finding reports from other admins of the ghost of KB2478662 emerging
    from the shadows.  I can only assume that running the Cleanup Wizard Friday somehow left WSUS in a state where this false positive could result.
    Like I said, I can't decide what question to ask.  Am I likely correct in blaming the Cleanup Wizard?  If so, is there some way of cleaning up after the wizard?  Or of preventing this sort of false positive in the first place?  Or is there
    some other common cause for this sort of FP?
    I seem to get two or three of these FPs a year, and I always end up researching the chain of superseding updates, manually scanning clients until I'm sure the latest update is really in place - and then I decline the false positive.  But I'd love to know
    a better way to handle these, or to avoid them.

    so I don't have a years-long database of approved updates.
    That remains to be seen. It only takes one hour of overambitious update approvals to generate five years of content on a WSUS server. :-)
    KB2478662 has never appeared before
    KB2478662 is an update contained in MS11-039 and has existed since June, 2011. If your WSUS server is only a couple of months old, I'm pretty confident in stating that KB2478662 was part of your original synchronization. KB247862 (MS11-039) is not a superseded
    update.
    It's much more likely that you just did not notice it before.. but it's always been there.
    (as I noted, KB2972100 was broadly installed in October) and has never had any approvals at all.
    I can't speak to the question of approvals, but if it was broadly installed, then I'd guess that  happened before you deployed this WSUS server and those updates were installed as a result of Automatic Updates. Given that it was released on Oct 14th,
    that makes perfect sense.
    I've never had the opportunity to decline it, because it's never appeared as "needed".
    Those two statements are totally noncongruent. You don't decline an update because it is or is not needed, or was or was not ever reported as needed, you decline an update because it will **NEVER** be needed again at all.
    None of the four updates I mention came out since I installed WSUS.
    Correct, but not really relevant.
    KB2478662 (MS11-039, Jun 2011) - already explained. NOT superseded, except for ITANIUM systems, which was superseded by MS11-069.
    KB2539635 (MS11-069, Aug 2011) - SUPERSEDED by KB2633873 (MS12-016, Feb 2012), KB2604115 (MS12-035, May 2012), KB2729452 (MS12-074, Nov 2012), KB2742599 (MS13-004, Jan 2013), and KB2972100 (MS14-057, Oct 2014).
    KB2633873 (MS12-016, Feb 2012) - SUPERSEDED by KB2604115 (MS12-035, May 2012), KB2729452 (MS12-074, Nov 2012), KB2742599 (MS13-004, Jan 2013), and KB2972100 (MS14-057, Oct 2014).
    KB2972100 (MS14-057, Oct 2014) - The *CURRENT* update.
    So since they all came out before you installed WSUS that means that ALL of them were ON your server the day you installed it, and TWO of them were relevant from Day One. The other two should have been immediately declined if KB2972100 was reported as 100%
    NotApplicable.
    If WSUS thinks KB2478662 is superseded, I have no idea why the Cleanup Wizard hasn't already handled it.
    There's no "think" about it. Either the update is superseded, or it is not, and whether it's superseded and what supersedes it and what it supersedes is displayed in the Update Details in the WSUS console. One need only read the screen to get the
    facts. In this case KB2478662 is NOT superseded (unless you have an Itanium server), and nothing "thinks" that it is (except you).
    As for why the Server Cleanup Wizard hasn't dealt with it, one need only understand what the Server Cleanup Wizard DOES do with superseded updates. Superseded updates are declined *IF* (and only IF):
    The update is superseded and has not been approved for at least 30 days.
    The update is superseded and not needed by any client systems or downstream servers.
    The update is superseded and the superseding update is APPROVED.
    So... the ITANIUM instance of KB2478662 will not be handled by the Server Cleanup Wizard, because you have likely not approved any ITANIUM updates that supersede it. And the other instances of KB2478662 will not be handled by the Server Cleanup Wizard because
    they are not superseded.
    So, back to your original message.
    KB2478662 WILL be "Needed" on any system where it is NOT installed, because this update is NOT superseded. Your original premise that this update is superseded is the root of all confusion.
    Furthermore, neither KB2633873 nor KB2539635 superseded that package, but they are superseded by a newer update (KB2972100) which predates the existence of your WSUS server, so the presence of KB2972100 and the absence of BK2633873 and KB2539635 is 100%
    normal and expected.
    You were correct in noting that KB2972100 does not supersede KB2478662, but that's the point at which your logic broke down and asking yourself how 'D' supersedes 'C' and 'B', and 'C' and 'B' supersede 'A', but 'D' does not supersede 'A' might have led to
    a re-evaluation of your conclusions.
    Ergo... there are *NO* false positives. What is reported is FACTUAL.
    HINT: (I've written this over a hundred times in the past five years).... The question you should be asking in such situations is NOT "What's wrong with the update?", but rather "What's wrong with the client?" or "What's wrong with
    my analysis?" The WUA evaluates applicability based on a defined set of rules, and reports the update status to the WSUS server based on the evaluation of those rules. If the update is more than a week old.. I absolutely PROMISE you that there is *NOTHING*
    wrong with the detection logic in that update and you need to focus your investigation on things other than the updates.
    As for how to handle superseded updates and update approvals, you may find some benefit from this article:

  • The Deploy Software Updates Wizard completed with errors - Access is Denied

    Hello, I am trying to download some updates that were synced up to the SCCM's database from another WSUS server. I am not able to get it done because the wizard fails with the access is denied error. I checked patchdownloader.log file and saw Error code
    = 5  which means access denied. I tried to change permissions on the "updateservicespackages" folder within the folder, and I have full NTFS permissions for system, administrators, and read only permissions for everyone. Same thing goes for
    the share permissions. My account is in the administrators group. The only way I can get it to work is by granting full permissions to "everyone", but that cannot be security friendly. Which account is "Deploy Software Updates Wizard" using
    so that I can properly give it the required rights?

    Hi,
    You could have a look at the thread below. Lucas used ProcMon that shows an access denied with the user which he was using.  Permission via group wasn't enough. Give your user full share/security access and everything works fine.

  • 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).

  • OIM 11g Server Configuration Wizard Error - Cannot Connect to Oracle DB

    I appreciate any and all suggestions or thoughts on how to best continue troubleshooting this error that I am describing below.
    I am attempting to install Oracle Identity and Access Management Suite 11g on a Windows 7 machine…in following the installation guides I have successfully installed the following Oracle Components
    - Oracle Database 11.2.0.1.0
    - Created Schemas using RCU 11.1.1.3.3
    - Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.3.0
    - Oracle SOA 11.1.1.2.0
    - Oracle SOA 11.1.1.3.0 (Patch Set)
    - Oracle IAM SUITE 11.1.1.3.0
    Following the above installations, I created a new WebLogic Domain and as the next step am running the OIM Configuration Wizard to configure the OIM Server, however I am unable to setup a connection to the Oracle DB via the OIM Configuration Wizard. I am getting an error message when attempting to setup the connection to the Oracle Database using the OIM 11g Server Configuration Wizard:
    ERROR:*
    INST:6102 Unable to connect to the database with the given credentials.
    *+[DETAILS] Check the values. Make sure the Database is up and running and connect string, user name, and password are correct.+*
    INST:6102 Unable to connect to the database with the given credentials.
    *+[DETAILS] Check the values. Make sure the Database is up and running and connect string, user name, and password are correct.+*
    When installing the Oracle Database 11gR2 I used the following install configuration:
    Oracle base: C:\MyApps\Oracle
    Software location: C:\MyApps\Oracle\DB_HOME\11.2.0\dbhome_1
    Database file location: C:\MyApps\Oracle\DB_HOME\oradata

    When creating my Schemas using RCU 11.1.1.3.3 I used the following Database Connection Details
    DB TYPE: Oracle Database
    HOST NAME: localhost
    PORT: 1521
    SERVICE NAME: orcl.dev.com
    USERNAME: sys
    PASSWORD: Password1
    ROLE: SYSDBA
    I used a Prefix of “DEV” when creating the schemas so Schema Owners DEV_OIM and DEV_MDS where created. Also, I configured to use the same password for all Schemas: “Password1″. So the password for DEV_OIM and DEV_MDS should be the same, “Password1″.
    REPRODUCING THE ERROR
    To reproduce the error, when I launch the Oracle Identity Management 11g Configuration Wizard I am first brought to the “Welcome” Screen. I click the [Next>] button.
    Next, I am on the “Components to Configure” screen where I select OIM Server and OIM Design Console and click the [Next>] button. (NOTE I have also tested by simply selecting only the OIM Server)
    Next, I am on the “Database” screen where I enter the connection information
    Connection String: localhost:1521:orcl.dev.com
    (NOTE I have also tested using localhost:1521:orcl)
    OIM Schema User Name: DEV_OIM
    OIM Schema Password: Password1
    MDS Schema User Name: DEV_MDS
    MDS Schema Password: Password1
    When I click the [Next>] button after entering the Database Connection details I encounter the following two errors (1 error for each logon DEV_OIM and DEV_MDS)
    INST:6102 Unable to connect to the database with the given credentials.

    Whenever installing oracle databases, i install the software only first. Then i setup the listener. Then i create a database instance using the dbca tool. This way all the information is added to the pre-existing listener configurations rather than trying to create the listener afterwards. Also, during the dbca database creation, i supply a full service name such as orcl.hostname and use the service name in future configurations where it asked. This usually solves any issues of the listener or database not being found correctly.

  • Server Admin | Server Updates | updated to 10.5.5 WITHOUT restart?

    A curious thing. I wonder whether anyone else experienced the same, or similar…
    When the update to Mac OS X Server 10.5.5 was released, very soon after its announcement, I used Server Admin | Server Updates to apply the update to my Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 (PowerPC Xserve).
    I expected a restart to be required.
    The update completed, but no restart was required!
    Amazed, I made an Apple Remote Desktop connection to the server and found that it was reporting itself as 10.5.5. Definitely, without a restart.
    I lacked confidence at that point, so I did restart the server, without being asked to.
    I might also try to run the combo updater. Just to be doubly sure that the whole caboodle installed as it should have.
    I wonder how it apparently got from 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 without a restart; and whether anyone else has experienced such oddities.

    I don't know what you've experienced
    1. Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 on G4 PowerPC XServe
    2. Server Admin on my Macbook Pro identified that the remote Xserve should gain an update to 10.5.5
    3. I followed Server Admin's invitation.
    3. An ARD view of the remote server's display (Apple menu | About This Mac) showed:
    * 10.5.5
    — with no invitation to restart, no log in.
    I simply connected via ARD, observed, thought, "What? 10.5.5? That's impossible. I haven't restarted".
    it's factually impossible for a server to go from 10.x.y to 10.x.(y+1) without a restart.
    Hence my bug report to Apple

  • 10.1.3 Can't not launch Update Wizard in Japanese environment.

    I have installed JDeveloper 10g (10.1.3) J2EE Edition Developer Preview on Japanese environment.
    And I wish install ADF Faces components.
    I try the installation according to the document.
    Adding Custom JSF Components to Oracle JDeveloper 10g (10.1.3) Preview
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/collateral/101/adffaces/howto_customcomponents.html
    I select the Help menu and click on the "Check for Updates ..." menu option.
    The Check for Updates Wizard is not launched.
    It was the same also in Windows and Linux.
    I have a workaround in Linux.
    JDeveloper is started in an English environment.
    Examples: % LANG=C /usr/local/JDeveloper/jdev/bin/jdev
    But I have no idea on Windows.
    Then I want to update in a Japanese environment.
    Isn't there method by which update can do in a Japanese environment?
    I get Exception StackTrace in Linux console.
    java.lang.NullPointerException
