Webex node configuration..

Hi all!
I am thinking in implementing a webex node, but I can´t find any documentation about how implementing, what do I need? and cost. And if is supported in Mexico. Help, please!
Best regards!

WebEx node went EOL for quite some time now
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/conferencing/webex-node-mcs/end_of_life_notice_c51-704258.html
If you're asking about CWMS, there's plenty of information on cisco.com about.
All the requirements are outlined in the documentation, if you want to know about costs and availability, get in touch with a local Cisco representative.

Webex Node Multi-Tenant Configuration

Hi,
We are currently deploying webex node on ASR for a client, in the UC 8.x it mentions the ability to multi-tenant the node capabilityes e.g
Page 22-9
"There is also the potential to deploy the WebEx Node for ASR in a multi-tenant capacity, in which two
businesses working closely together with staff working on each other's premises could have the other's
WebEx site defined on their ASR Nodes. This means that, when staff for Enterprise B access their
company's WebEx site through Enterprise A, they can use the local ASR Node to accelerate their
meeting while saving bandwidth for Enterprise A. This feature can also benefit organizations that have
multiple WebEx sites."
This is the only reference in any guide I can find to being able to do this.
Has anyone actually done this? Is it actually possible? and if so does anyone have any documentation that they can point out that may be of use trying to deploy this type of solution.
I know it's a long shot but any help is much appreciated.

Hi A.Zarei,
Based on your description, I recommend to check if the Managed Metadata service application is associated with the web application where your My Site hose site exists.
Please double check if the service account of the My Site host site web application and the user profile service application has read permission on the Managed Metadata service application.
Best regards.
Thanks

Meeting place Webex Node 8.0 Web interface

Hi all,
I just installed Meeting place Webex node , an i want what exactly the URL link to access to this server.
Thanks in advance
Hicham

What I know you can just connect to the servers ip address/DNS name and you will just see a status page like the one attached
There in not much more you can do on the node via web, all configuration is done via the CLI

Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System

Dear guys, ...
Please help,
i want to implement to webex node ASR1000, i have read in "Configuring the Cisco Webex Node for ASR 100.pdf", there is prerequisites to implement it, that is "Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System"
Can someone tell how to "Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System"
Are there any step by step documentation to "Registering with the WebEx Data Center and the Cisco WebEx Node Management System"?
Thank you
BR

You should have received a PAK Key with your order. Go to Cisco licensing and enter the PAK Key as this will start the process. Once the PAK Key is validated a screen will be displayed to enter your request for ASR 100 integration. It normally takes a few days to a couple of weeks to get the information back from WebEx needed to configure your ASR.
If you did not get a PAK Key contact your WebEx rep to get the process started to integrate your ASR to your WebEx site.
Hope this helps

Cisco MeetingPlace 8 EMS with WebEx node for MCS

Hi All,
I am in the process of setting up Meeting Place for the 1st time for my office UC Collaboration suite
Products installed:
Cisco Meeting Place 8.x NFR (8.0.1.3)
Cisco Meeting Place 8.x WebEx Node NFR (8.0.1.8)
I been doing days of reading on the docwiki. Audio conferencing with the MP alone is working fine on my setup
I am trying to configure for Web Deployment: Cisco WebEx Scheduling, Internal Meetings.
Would like to keep everything on-premise
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0_--_Choosing_a_Web_Deployment_for_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0#Components_Used_for_Cisco_WebEx_Scheduling.2C_Internal_Meetings
Doubts/Enquiry
It states that component used:
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Application Server.
Express Media Server.
Cisco WebEx Node on MCS.
Cisco WebEx site.
Required in order for the user to join a meeting.
One Cisco WebEx site handles both internal and external meetings
I believe that i am missing the Cisco WebEx site step. I have key-ed in PAK license for the WebEx Node on go/license website. But i do not receive anything in return for almost a day now.
Am i on the right track; expecting Cisco/WebEx to send me some Site Registration form or etc?
Based on the fact that i am on a NFR kit
Please advise
Regards: Jocelyn

-When Provisioning a WebEx node, it must be able to register to a WebEx site in order to function and for provisioning to complete. Without a WebEx site to communicate to, the node is unable to host internal WebEx meetings. As such, a WebEx site subscription must also be included in any setup of a MeetingPlace/WebEx integration.
-Based on this requirement, MP 8.0 is not able to provide a complete on-premise web conferencing solution. Integration with the WebEx Cloud is needed.
-Unfortunately TAC does not have visibility to the WebEx site or node provisioning process until it is completed. In this situation we must reach out to the Account Team or Point of Sale for the WebEx site in order to determine the status of the initial provisioning process.

Meeting place 8.0 and WebEx Node Integration issue.

Hello All,
We have installed MP 8.x and Webex node on seperate servers. After this we have installed a webserver.exe and sql server on a different server and configured the GatewaySIM and sql. connectivity is fine.
1. Please let us know how to login to MP user portal. (What is the URL)
2. How to integrate Webex with MP?
3. Is there a good document to bring up the webex web interface.
Regards,
Shaijal

Take a look at http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_Release_8.0_--_Integrating_Cisco_Unified_MeetingPlace_with_Cisco_WebEx
That has all the information I used to eventually get the MP WebEx integration to work for us.
If you have problems you may struggle to get a good answer from Cisco on this, unfortunately there is very little knowledge of WebEx within Cisco TAC, something they badly need to address.

R12 Single node to Multi-node Configuration

Hi All!
We have a single node setup (Applications and Database are on the same server). Now, our management decided to setup a Multi-node configuration and i'm the one who will do this.
The plan is to use Oracle ASM and RAC for the database and for the Application is to have a multiple application servers. For the database, we will be using a minimum of 3 servers and another 3 servers for the application. Is this possible? How can this be done. Can someone point or give some link or infos on how to do this. We're going to use the existing data on the single node server.
Thanks and Regards,

Webex Node

Hi all,
Anyone know what is the disadvantage if there is Cisco Meeting Place without any web server or Webex node?
Can i still organize the meeting & share the content?
thank you.

No disadvantage. All the WebEx Node for MCS did was provide a rendezvous point for WebEx clients that were inside the firewall to terminate their session to. This lowered the bandwidth requirement toward the WebEx SaaS cloud. For example: if you had 10 users in a meeting, all behind the firewall, you would have 10 streams to the local node and one from the node to the WebEx cloud instead of all 10 clients connecting to the cloud directly.
In the MeetingPlace 8.5 design you were required to hold a WebEx MeetingCenter contract. The local MeetingPlace server was only an audio/video bridge. It was not a standalone solution. The recently announced WebEx Meetings Server is an entirely standalone product which does not require a WebEx contract.

Nodes in RAC One Node configuration

Dear all,
11.2 on Windows 2008
What is the maximum number of nodes we can have in RAC one node configuration ?
Yoosuf

Thanks Rafi and Sorry for not making it clear.
The whole configuration will be rac one node (With 4 nodes) with out dataguard implementation.
If the primary site goes down(s1,2 and storage) , can the secondary site wil be up automatically (s3,4 and storage). Please note storage is with ASM (normal redundancy ) primary storage at Head office and Secondary ASM storage at DR

Meeting Place 8.0 + Webex Node?

Hello to all,
We have purchased two IBM 7835 servers with the intention of building on as meeting place 8.0 (EMS) and one as a webex node,
The question I have is about the placement of the servers.
I have read the SRND and are still not sure where the webex node (collaboration) server is to be placed, the docs say this should typically be on the
inside network closest to participants
Also where is the best placement for the MP 8.0 server DMZ or Inside the nework,
I guess the collaborative model we are looking at is the
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace with Cisco WebEx Node for Cisco MCS
Any help or docs would be well appreciated.
Thanks
Rich

Hi all,
I encounter the same constraint, so I want to ask you :
We've deployed a Meeting place8.0.0.393 in LAN. Then a Webex Node for MCS will be added.
The concern is that Meeting place is deployed in that LAN, then the WebexNode will be installed there also (on premise).
Thus the DNS that will be used is like "myenterprise.local". ( mpapps1.myenterprise.local and wbxNode1.myenterprise.local)
Its not like .com or .org or any domain reachable from Intenet. the .local is not reachable from Internet.
So my question is : is it possible to use this domain.local in the place of the place of the FQDN of the webex node and Application Node fields?

Antra

Call Library Function (DLL) Node Configuration

This issue was discussed few times on this forum (see for example http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=182911 ), but I still have a problem.
My question is - how to define the call to DLL without to specify its full path in order to be able to change the directory path without to change all calls to DLL functions within VI.
So, I did:
1. I put my DLL and my VI in the same directory.
2. I defined this directory in VI search path. This directory also defined as enviroment variable.
3. I use only one call to DLL in this specific VI (just as example in order to simplify the problem).
4. I define only DLL name without the path in CLF Node.
But, every time when I close CLF Node configution window, the program search for the DLL, find it and put full DLL path inside.
I will be very thankful if anyone can help me to overcome this problem.
Best regards,
Boris

Hello Boris,
To sum up the previous posts, when you specify the DLL when configuring the Call Library Function
node, internally LabVIEW stores in the VI either 1) the name of the
DLL, or 2) a relative path from the VI to the DLL (including the name
of the DLL). What's displayed in the dialog (in 'Library Name or Path'
field) is either 1) the name of the DLL, or 2) an absolute path that is
formed by appending the DLL's relative path to the VI's absolute path.
In
case 1, LabVIEW uses the Windows system search paths to load the DLL.
That is, it looks for the DLL in \windows\system32 folder, then if not
found there, it uses the folders specified in the PATH environment
variable, etc.
In case 2, LabVIEW tries to load the DLL from the
computed absolute path (VIs current path combined with the relative
path to the DLL that LabVIEW stored internally). And if not found
there, LabVIEW uses the VI Search Path (that can be set from Tools »
Options in the category of Paths).
So even though LabVIEW automatically puts an absolute path to the DLL
in the Call Library Function Node, as long as you will specify the
correct folder for the DLL in the VI Search Path, you should be Ok. However, if you want to
have a fixed location for the DLL, then it is best to keep it in the
\windows\system32 folder, and specify just the name of the DLL when
configuring the Load Library Function node (this way LabVIEW will not
automatically turn it into an absolute path).
Also, these knowledge base articles might be helpful:
Why Does My VI Prompt for My DLL Every Time I Open It?
LabVIEW Searching for a DLL Used in the Call Library Function Node
My Stand-Alone Executable Cannot Find My DLL, Even Though I Have Specified the Path for the DLL
Hope this helps and good luck with your application!

Is RAC node configuration when disk array fails on one node .

Hi ,
We recently had all the filesystem of node 1 of RAC cluster , turned into read only mode. Upon further investigation it was revealed that it was due to disks array failure on node 1 . The database instance on node 2 is up and running fine . The OS team are rebuilding the node 1 from scratch and will restore oracle installable from the backup .
My question is once all files are restored :
Do we need to add the node to the RAC configuration ?
Do we need to do relink of oracle binary files ?
Can the node be brought up directly once all the oracle installables are restored properly or will the oRacle team require to perform addition steps to bring the node into RAC configuration .Thanks,
Sachin K

Hi ,
If the restore fails in some way . We will require to first remove and then add the nodes to the node 1 cluster right ? Kindly confirm on the below steps.
In case of such situation below are the steps we plan to follow:
version ; 10.2.0.5
Affected node :prd_node1
Affected instance :PRDB1
Surviving Node :prd_node2
Surviving instance: PRDB2
DB Listener on prd_node1:LISTENER_PRD01
ASM listener on prd_node1:LISTENER_PRDASM01
DB Listener on prd_node2:LISTENER_PRD02
ASM listener on prd_node2:LISTENER_PRDASM02
Login to the surviving node .In our case its prd_node2
Step 1 - Remove ONS information :
Execute as root the following command to find out the remote port number to be used
$cat $CRS_HOME/opmn/conf/ons.config
and remove the information pertaining the node to be deleted using
#$CRS_HOME/bin/racgons remove_config prd_node1:6200
Step 2 - Remove resources :
In this step, the resources that were defined on this node has to be removed. These resources include (a) Database (b) Instance (c) ASM. A list of this can
be acquired by running crs_stat -t command from any node
The srvctl remove listener command used below is only applicable in 10204 and higher releases including 11.1.0.6. The command will report an error if the
clusterware version is less than 10204. If clusterware version is less than 10204, use netca to remove the listener
srvctl remove listener -n prd_node1 -l LISTENER_PRD01
srvctl remove listener -n prd_node1 -l LISTENER_PRDASM01
srvctl remove instance -d PRDB -i PRDB1
srvctl remove asm -n prd_node1 -i +ASM1
Step 3 Execute rootdeletenode.sh :
From the node that you are not deleting execute as root the following command which will help find out the node number of the node that you want to delete
#$CRS_HOME/bin/olsnodes -n
this number can be passed to the rootdeletenode.sh command which is to be executed as root from any node which is going to remain in the cluster.
#$CRS_HOME/install/rootdeletenode.sh prd_node1,1
Step 5 Update the Inventory :
From the node which is going to remain in the cluster run the following command as owner of the CRS_HOME. The argument to be passed to the CLUSTER_NODES is a
comma seperated list of node names of the cluster which are going to remain in the cluster. This step needs to be performed from once per home (Clusterware,
ASM and RDBMS homes).
## Example of running runInstaller to update inventory in Clusterware home
$CRS_HOME/oui/bin/runInstaller -updateNodeList ORACLE_HOME=$ORA_CRS_HOME "CLUSTER_NODES=prd_node2" CRS=TRUE
## Optionally enclose the host names with {}
## Example of running runInstaller to update inventory in ASM home
$CRS_HOME/oui/bin/runInstaller -updateNodeList ORACLE_HOME=$ASM_HOME "CLUSTER_NODES=prd_node2"
## Optionally enclose the host names with {}
## Example of running runInstaller to update inventory in RDBMS home
$CRS_HOME/oui/bin/runInstaller -updateNodeList ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME "CLUSTER_NODES=prd_node2"
## Optionally enclose the host names with {}
We need steps to add the node back into the cluster . Can anyone please help us on this ?
Thanks,
Sachin K

Cache / application node configuration

Hi!
I am doing a Coherense evaluation and yesterday I talked to the UK Tangosol office that suggested I post these questions here to more quickly get answers. I hope you can help.
I would like to configure a number of nodes to ONLY hold data for a distributed cache. Let us call them cache nodes.
A number of other nodes should be configured to participate in the same distributed cache but not hold any data. They will use a "near" cache with the distributed cache as "back cache". This is the nodes were my application logic will go. Let us call them application nodes.
My first question is if I must have the same configuration on the cache nodes as I have on the application nodes (i.e. must I use a "near cache" even though I do not need or want a "front cache" here since nobody will access the data locally? I assume that the invalidation of even an empty front cache has some associated cost and this is another reason to not have one when not needed.
My second question is if I must make som special provisions in my CacheStore (that will use JDBC to sync with a database) to ensure that modified data will either not be written to either the cache or the database or both (for instance in the event of a critical hardware failure of the cache node calling the CacheStore during a call to one of the "store" or "erase" methods) - or is this "automagically" taken care of some how by the layer above the CacheStore? Is the answer the same or different if I use replication of the data in the replicated cache or not? My plan is to NOT use replication and instead take the hit that some cache data is lost (will be reloaded if needed later) in the event of a critical error killing one of the cache nodes. If I must do something special in the CacheStore to ensure that the database and cache is always coherent I would like some example code that i can start from...
My third question is if my proposed configuration is fully coherent or is it theoretically possible that a client can send a request that modify an object to one of the application node and then (assuming my load balancer is NOT sticky) immediately requests the same data from another application node and get the OLD object value back? I.e. is the update/invalidation from/to the near caches synchronous or asynchronous? If this is a "possible" scenario is there anything that can be done to avoid it with this setup (except getting a sticky load balancer)?
Lastly if you happen to sit on some configuration examples that set up exactly this kind of scenario (or something very close to it) I would appreciate having a look at them. I have found some examples on the forum but none that do the same thing...
Best Regards
MagnusE

Thanks for your quick and informative answer Jon! I need to think more about some of your points to make sure i understand the implications. A few quick follow-up questions though:
With a write-through cache, Coherence will call your
CacheStore implementation before updating the cache,
and so the database will always have the most current
version of the data, even in the event of a cache
server failure.But will the cache also get the new verssion of thew data somehow in the event of a failure (that oocur just after the data has been stored in the database but before the storage node managed to put it in the cache) or will this cause non-coherence between database and cache? Will the application node get an exception back from its put operation in this case (so it at least is aware that the data may not have gone into both the cache and the database)?
What happens if the data store fail to put the data in the database (due to a database constraint or a database failure etc) and the store method in the datastore class throws an exception? Will the storage node still put the new (or changed) object in the cache (causing a non-coherence between databse and cache) or not?
Do you have some documentation that explains how the product handles all the known "corner cases" (like failures during or just after the datastore methods are called etc - it would be valuable since they are often the cause of the rare but really nasty problems...
Best Regards
Magnus

Clusterware Nodes configuration

Dear Gurus,
I require some help regarding my RAC.
Recently we added/removed nodes from the cluster,
now when I am configuring the EM control
"emca -config dbcontrol db -cluster -repos create -CLUSTER_NAME racdb -EM_NODE node1,node2 -EM_SID_LIST db1,db2"
I get the following error
PRKC-10164 : invalid node list
the node list shown here contains 2 of the nodes which are now offloaded...
Does anyone know how to make sure that they have been completely removed from the cluster registry/conf?
Thanks
Saad

Hi,
This is expected behaviour as node number is transparent to user.
If node number must be restored, the only way is to deconfig and reconfig the entire cluster, refer for deconfig/reconfig to note 399482.1 for pre-11gR2 and note 1377349.1 for 11.2 for details.
