This chapter provides information to use
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Bulk Administration (BAT) to insert, update,
or delete Extension Mobility Cross Cluster (EMCC) in batches, rather than
performing individual updates through
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
Use BAT EMCC templates to define the common EMCC attributes to
add a group of new EMCC. Prior to creating the template, make sure EMCC
settings have already been configured in
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. You cannot create new settings
in BAT.
Because you might have several EMCC templates,
Cisco Unified Communications Manager lets you locate specific templates on the
basis of specific criteria. Use the following procedure to locate templates.

This creates the template.
What to Do Next
After creating the template, set a default template from the Insert
page. You can access the Insert page through
Bulk
Administration > EMCC > Insert/Update
EMCC.
You can delete EMCC BAT templates when you no longer require
them.
Note
The template that is set as the default EMCC template cannot be
deleted from the system. You can find the default EMCC template from the
Insert/Update EMCC page, or from the Delete EMCC page. You can also find it
from the EMCC Template Find List page. On the Find List page, no check box
displays against the default template.
Procedure
Step 1
Find the EMCC Template that you want to delete.
Step 2
In the
EMCC Template Configuration window, verify
that this is the template that you want to delete and click
Delete.
Note
You can also delete the EMCC template from the
EMCC Template Find and List window. Check
the check box next to the template that you want to delete and click
Delete Selected.
A message displays that asks you to confirm the delete
operation.
Step 3
To delete the template, click
OK. The template name disappears from the list
of EMCC templates list on the
Find and List EMCC Templates window.
Caution
If you submit a job that uses a particulate EMCC template and if
you delete the template, the job also gets deleted.
The following table provides descriptions of all possible
fields that display when you are adding an EMCC template.
Some fields display the values that were configured in
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
In the BAT user interface, field names that have an asterisk
require an entry. Treat fields that do not have an asterisk as optional.
