Important Considerations

Before you proceed with the Cisco CallManager installation or upgrade, consider the following requirements and recommendations:

Cisco CallManager requires a minimum of 1GB of memory on the Cisco CallManager servers. To avoid system problems, such as dropped calls, verify that your servers have a minimum of 1 GB of memory installed. If the installation process detects less than 1GB memory on the publisher server, the installation aborts. The installation process performs a similar check on the Cisco CallManager subscriber server; it allows the installation to continue if it detects less than the minimum requirement.

Install the Cisco CallManager software on the publisher server first and then on the subscriber server(s).

You cannot add a subscriber server to a cluster by installing a previous version of Cisco CallManager and then upgrading the subscriber server to the same version that is running on the publisher server. If you are adding a new subscriber server or replacing a subscriber server on the cluster, you must use the installation CDs with the same Cisco CallManager version that is running on the publisher server.

Make sure that you are logged in as the administrator on the server before starting the Cisco CallManager installation.

Install the Cisco CallManager software on one server at a time to ensure that subscriber servers can receive replicate copies of the database from the publisher database server.

Make sure that the subscriber server that you are installing can connect to the publishing database server during the installation.

Do not choose cancel after you start the installation. If you choose cancel, you will need to reimage your machine by reinstalling the operating system.

Because security settings for the Cisco CallManager server are set up by the installation and upgrade script, do not make any adjustments to these predefined settings, or you may experience a significant impact to the functionality of your server.

When entering passwords for the local Administrator and SA (SQL Server system administrator) accounts, use alphanumeric characters only.

Enter the same administrator password on all servers in the cluster.

Install the Cisco CallManager software during off-peak hours or during a maintenance window to avoid impact from call-processing interruptions.

Do not implement multiple servers in a Cisco CallManager cluster by using a drive that was mirrored or cloned from a single Cisco CallManager server. This results in servers having duplicate Security ID (SID) and impairs Cisco CallManager operations. You must install the Cisco IP telephony operating system and Cisco CallManager software separately on each server by using the Cisco-provided installation disks.

Do not configure any server in the cluster as a Domain Controller.

Place the server in a Workgroup before you install the software.

Configure the server by using static IP addressing to ensure that the server obtains a fixed IP address and that the Cisco IP Phones can register with the application when you plug the phones into the network.

Do not attempt to perform any configuration tasks during the installation.

Do not use terminal services to install the Cisco CallManager software

Do not install any Cisco-verified applications until you complete installing Cisco CallManager on every server in the cluster.

Cisco provides support for a limited set of applications on the servers where Cisco CallManager is installed. If you are uncertain whether a third-party application is supported, do not install it on the server.

You must disable third-party, Cisco-verified applications on your servers before starting the Cisco CallManager installation.

Install a security agent to protect your servers against unauthorized intrusion.

Do not install Cisco Unity on a server where Cisco CallManager is installed.

Installing or using Netscape Navigator on the Cisco MCS or the Cisco-approved, customer-provided server causes severe performance problems.

Carefully read the instructions that follow before you proceed with the installation. See "Performing Preinstallation Tasks" section,"Performing the Cisco CallManager Release 4.1 Installation" section, and "Performing Postinstallation Tasks" section

Frequently Asked Questions About the Cisco CallManager Installation

The following section contains information about commonly asked questions and responses. Review this section carefully before you complete the Cisco CallManager installation.

How long does it take to perform the Cisco CallManager installation?

The entire installation process, excluding pre- and post-installation tasks, takes 45 to 90 minutes per server, depending on your server type. Before you install Cisco CallManager, consider the size of your cluster.

How does the Cisco CallManager installation work?

Review the following information before you install Cisco CallManager.

Verifying the User Name, Organization Name, and Product Key

Cisco supplies you with a Cisco product key when you purchase a Cisco IP telephony product. The product key, based on a file encryption system, allows you to install only the components that you have purchased, and it prevents other supplied software from being installed for general use. The product key comprises alphabetical letters only.

During the operating system installation, you entered the Cisco CallManager product key. The product key allows you to install Cisco CallManager on a server that is designated for Cisco CallManager only.

During the operating system installation, you registered the software product by entering a user and organization name.

During the Cisco CallManager installation, verify that the correct User Name, Organization Name, and product key display. See the latest version of the operating system documentation for more information.

Entering Passwords

During the Cisco CallManager installation, you must enter a valid password for the following accounts:

Windows NT Administrator account

If you plan to install Cisco CallManager on the Cisco Media Convergence Server (MCS), you established this password during the operating system installation. If you left the password blank during the operating system installation, or if you enter the wrong password during the Cisco CallManager installation, you cannot install Cisco CallManager on the server.


Tip Verify that this password is the same on all servers in the cluster. If you change the passwords at any time, you must either log off and log in to the server again, or you must reboot the server and log in to the server.



Caution When entering passwords for the local Administrator and SA (SQL Server system administrator) accounts, enter alphanumeric characters only. The account password must match on every server in the cluster.

SA (SQL Server system administrator) account

Directory Manager (DC Directory) account

Private Password Phrase


Caution The installation prompts you for a Private Password Phrase. The installation uses the string that you enter to create a unique, encrypted password. You must enter the same phrase on all servers in the cluster.

Installing the Publisher Database or Subscriber Server

When you install Cisco CallManager, you must determine whether the server will be configured as a publishing database server or a subscriber database server. In a Cisco CallManager distributed system, one server maintains the master, or publisher, database, and all other servers in the cluster maintain subscriber databases. Subscriber databases provide copies of the master database. During normal operation, all Cisco CallManagers in the cluster read data from and write data to the publisher database. Periodically, Cisco CallManager automatically updates the subscriber databases as needed.

Cisco requires that you first install the publisher database server, so authentication to the database occurs. This decision designates a permanent selection. If you want to reassign the database server type at a later date, you must reinstall Cisco CallManager on the server and choose a different database server type.


Caution If you are configuring a subscriber database server, make sure that the publishing database server for that cluster is installed, connected to the network, and configured properly to work as a distributed system.When configuring a subscriber database server, ensure that the server that you are installing can connect to the publishing database server during the installation. This connection facilitates copying the publisher database from the publisher database server to the local drive on the subscriber server. You must supply the name of the publishing database server and the password for the administrator account on that server. If the publisher server cannot be authenticated during the installation for any reason, the installation will not continue.

You must install one server at a time, or the subscriber servers cannot receive copies of the database from the publisher database server.

Cisco CallManager installs the following software packages:

Sun Microsystem Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

Microsoft SQL Server 2000

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3a (or later)

DC Directory

Cisco CallManager

Installing Cisco CallManager Components and Services

The Cisco CallManager installation automatically installs all services that display in the Service Activation window of Cisco CallManager Serviceability. These services install on every server in the cluster. To review a list of installed services, service definitions, and service considerations, refer to the Cisco CallManager Serviceability Administration Guide and the Cisco CallManager Serviceability System Guide.

The Cisco CallManager installation places services in an inactive state until the installation completes. After the installation completes, you must manually activate the service on each server in which you want the service to run. For information on activating services, refer to the Cisco CallManager Serviceability Administration Guide and the Cisco CallManager Serviceability System Guide.

Which servers does Cisco support for this installation?

Refer to the Cisco CallManager Compatibility Matrix for a list of servers that Cisco CallManager 4.1(3) supports. To obtain the most recent version of this document, go to

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/compat/ccmcompmatr1.pdf

May I install other software besides Cisco CallManager on the server?


Caution Cisco strongly recommends that you do not install any Cisco-verified applications until you complete the installation on every server in the cluster. If you do not know whether the application is approved for installation, do not install it on the server. Installing unsupported software on the server could cause severe performance problems and call-processing interruptions.

Cisco supports a limited list of applications on the Cisco Media Convergence Server (MCS) or Cisco-approved, customer-provided server. Consider the following information before you install Cisco CallManager:

You may install Cisco-verified applications [Cisco AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video and Integrated Data) Partner Applications], but you must disable and stop these applications before the Cisco CallManager installation and then reboot the server. Disable these applications during installation, restoration, and upgrade procedures.

Installing or using Netscape Navigator on the Cisco MCS or a Cisco-approved, customer-provided server causes severe performance problems. Cisco strongly recommends against installing Netscape Navigator or any other application software on the Cisco MCS or Cisco-approved, customer-provided server.

Cisco strongly recommends that you install a security agent to protect your servers against unauthorized intrusion. Cisco offers two security agent options: Cisco Security Agent (CSA) for Cisco CallManager and Management Center for Cisco Security Agent (CSA MC). For more information, see the "Performing Postinstallation Tasks" section.

You can install Cisco CallManager and Cisco Customer Response Solutions (CRS) on the same server. Refer to the CRS installation documentation to obtain the coresident installation product key.

Do not install Cisco Unity on any server where Cisco CallManager is installed.

May I run a web browser on the server?

Cisco strongly recommends that you do not run a web browser on the Cisco MCS or any Cisco-approved, customer-provided server. Running a web browser on the server causes CPU usage to surge.

To access Cisco CallManager Administration, the web-based graphical user interface (GUI) that allows you to perform Cisco CallManager configuration tasks, use a different PC to browse into the Cisco CallManager server that is running Cisco CallManager Administration and log in with administrative privileges.


Tip To browse into the server, enter https://<CM-server-name>/CCMAdmin/main.asp, where <CM-server-name> equals the name of the server, in the Address bar in the web browser.


May I add Cisco CallManager servers as members of a Windows domain?

Cisco does not recommend adding Cisco CallManager servers as members of a Microsoft Windows domain. However if your system architecture depends on servers joining a Windows domain, then you must disable the Network Time Protocol (NTP) software that is installed by Cisco CallManager when you add the server as a member of a domain and use Microsoft time service. You must disable the NTP service on every server in your cluster.


Note You must install the server as a member of a workgroup during installation of Cisco CallManager.



Note Do not make any modifications to the installed NTP configuration file (NTP.CONF). Modifications to the NTP.CONF file may result in synchronization problems with CDRs, Traces, Event Logging, and so on. Cisco does not support these modifications.


To disable the Cisco-installed NTP software on a server:


Step 1 Choose Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.

Step 2 Double-click the Network Time Protocol service.

Step 3 In the Startup type field, choose Disabled.

Step 4 Click Stop.

Step 5 Click OK



Caution Every time that you upgrade your server, you must remove the server from the Windows Domain prior to installing the upgrade software.

When you complete your upgrade and you are adding the server to the Windows domain, you must disable the Cisco-installed NTP services again.

If you are joining the server to a Microsoft Windows 4.0 domain, you must also perform an additional procedure for synchronizing time. Refer to How to Synchronize the Time on a Windows 2000-Based Computer in a Windows NT 4.0 Domain at http://www.microsoft.com.

May I configure a server in the cluster as a Domain Controller?

Cisco strongly recommends that you do not configure any server in the cluster as a Domain Controller. If you configure any server in the cluster as a Domain Controller, you cannot upgrade Cisco CallManager on the server.

May I use Terminal Services, Virtual Network Computing, and Integrated Lights Out to remotely install the application?

Do not use Terminal Services or Integrated Lights Out (ILO) to install Cisco CallManager Release 4.1(3). Cisco installs Terminal Services, so Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) can perform remote administration and troubleshooting tasks. Cisco does not support upgrades through Terminal Services. Cisco supports ILO for remote management and configuration tasks only


Caution Before the upgrade, Cisco strongly recommends that you disable Terminal Services and immediately reboot the server to prevent remote access to the server. Accessing the server via Terminal Services may cause the upgrade to fail.

After you upgrade the server, you must enable Terminal Services.

If you want to use Virtual Network Computing (VNC) to remotely install Cisco CallManager, go to http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/iptel_os/index.htm to obtain the latest version of the VNC document.


Caution If you have installed VNC but do not plan to use it to install Cisco CallManager, disable it to prevent remote access to the server. If you do not disable VNC and a user/administrator accesses the server during the installation, the installation will fail.

What if I encounter problems during the installation?

If you encounter problems during the installation, Cisco recommends that you take the following actions:

1. During the installation if you receive an error message that displays in a dialog box, see the "Analyzing Error Messages" section and perform the recommended corrective action.

2. On the server where the problem occurred, obtain and review the log file, ccminst <data/time stamp>.log, from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Cisco\Logs.

Be aware that not all error messages that display in the log file are catastrophic. MSI generates error messages in the log file for many reasons; for example, attempts to access a service that is not used by Cisco CallManager.

Step
Preinstallation Tasks
Important Notes

Step 1 

Plan your system configuration.

Determine how many Cisco CallManager servers the cluster will contain, which server will house the publisher database, and where backup tasks will be performed.

Determine whether each server will act as a dedicated or coresident server.

See "Planning your System" section

Step 2 

This task applies for reinstallation.

Configure the server to the state of the original configuration.

If you have hot-swappable drives, make sure that you inserted the appropriate drives into the server and ensure that the drives are functional. Remove any additional hard drives that are in the server.

Step 3 

Make sure that you installed the operating system version 2000.2.7 (or later) on all dedicated and coresident servers.

Use the Cisco IP Telephony Server Operating System OS/BIOS Upgrade Disk that came with the software kit and upgrade the operating system to version 2000.2.7 or later.

Refer to Installing the Operating System on the Cisco IP Telephony Applications Server. To obtain the most recent version of this document, go to http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/iptel_os/index.htm.

Before you perform the upgrade, be sure to read the operating system readme information that is posted on the operating system cryptographic software page. You can navigate to the site from the Cisco CallManager software page at http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/sw-voice.shtml.

Step 4 

Download and install the latest Cisco IP Telephony Server Operating System service release (2000-2-7 sr2 or later).

The operating system service releases post on the voice products operating system cryptographic software page. You can navigate to the site from the Cisco CallManager software page.

For installation instructions, refer to the file-specific readme document, Cisco IP Telephony Operating System, SQL Server, Security Updates, and Installing the Operating System on the Cisco IP Telephony Applications Server. To obtain the most recent version of these documents, go to http://www.cisco.com/kobayashi/sw-center/sw-voice.shtml.

Step 5 

Before you install Cisco CallManager, make sure that you removed all servers from a NT or an Active Directory Domain.

See the "Removing the Servers from a Domain and Join a Workgroup" section.

Step 6 

Connect the server(s) to the network.

See the "Installing Cisco CallManager on the Publisher Database Server" section.

Step 7 

If your server supports the Cisco Media Convergence Server Network Teaming Driver, you can install and configure this driver, if you choose to do so.

Refer to the driver documentation by clicking the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/iptel_os/index.htm

Step 8 

This step applies if you need to reinstall Cisco CallManager.

You must disable and stop all third-party, Cisco-verified, and Cisco-provided, coresident applications that are installed on your server.

If you have Cisco-verified applications (Cisco AVVID Partner Applications) or platform agents that are installed on the server, you must disable and stop the services.

Cisco strongly recommends that you do not install any Cisco-verified applications until you have completed the installation on every server in the cluster.

See "Installing Cisco CallManager on the Publisher Database Server" section


Caution Reboot the server after you disable and stop these applications. Do not start the applications until you complete the Cisco CallManager installation on every server in the cluster. Before you start the installation, verify that none of the services is running.

Step 9 

Close all web browser windows.

If you have an open browser window, Cisco CallManager will reboot the server after the Sun Microsystem JRE package has been installed.

Step 10 

Locate specific information that you need to install Cisco CallManager.

See the "Gathering Configuration Information" section.


Planning your System

You can distribute the call-processing load for your system across multiple Cisco CallManagers as a single cluster. A cluster comprises a set of Cisco CallManagers that share the same database.

At a minimum, you should determine how many Cisco CallManager servers the cluster will contain, which server will house the publisher database, and where backup tasks will be performed. Additional planning should include a strategy for distributing the devices (such as phones or gateways) among the Cisco CallManagers in the cluster to achieve the type of distribution that you want.

Determine whether each server will act as a dedicated or coresident server.

In a Cisco CallManager distributed system, one server maintains the master, or publisher, database, and all other servers in the cluster maintain subscriber databases. Subscriber databases provide copies of the master database. During normal operation, all Cisco CallManagers in the cluster read data from and write data to the publisher database. Periodically, Cisco CallManager automatically updates the subscriber copies of the database from the publisher database.

For more information on planning a Cisco CallManager distributed system, refer to the Cisco CallManager System Guide.

If you are installing a dedicated server, locate the Cisco CallManager product key in this document. If you are installing Cisco CallManager on a coresident server, refer to the specific Cisco IP telephony application installation documentation for the coresident product key.

Removing the Servers from a Domain and Join a Workgroup

Perform the following procedure to convert any servers that exist in the NT Domain or Microsoft Active Directory Domain:

Procedure


Step 1 Choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > System.

Step 2 Click the Network Identification tab.

Step 3 Click the Properties button.

Step 4 Click the Workgroup radio button and enter a name, for example, WRKGRP, in the corresponding field.

Step 5 Click OK.

Step 6 When prompted to do so, reboot the server.

Step 7 Log in using the Administrator password.

Step 8 Perform this procedure on every server in the cluster that exists in the NT Domain.

Step 9 Go to the Domain Controller and remove the computer accounts for the Cisco CallManager servers in the cluster.


Connecting the Server to the Network

Before you begin the installation, make sure that you connect your server to the network.

The servers in Table 3 contain two network interface cards (NIC), but the Cisco IP telephony application supports only one NIC. When you connect the server to the network, use the NIC connector that is listed in the table because the other NIC is automatically disabled during the installation.


Note You can implement NIC teaming on servers that support the network teaming driver. For information, refer to the Installing the Cisco Media Convergence Server Network Teaming Driver at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/iptel_os/driver/hp_team.htm.

All servers except the publishing database server maintain subscriber databases, which are copies of the publisher database server. If you are configuring a subscriber database server, make sure that the server that you are installing can connect to the publishing database server before the installation can continue. The installation process necessitates this connection, so the publisher database server can be copied to the local drive on the subscriber server. To make sure that a good connection exists between the servers, issue a ping command from the subscriber server to the publisher database server before you try to authenticate to it. If the ping command is not successful, you must exit the installation program, fix the problem, and begin the installation process again.



Caution When entering passwords for the local Administrator and SA (SQL Server system administrator) accounts, enter alphanumeric characters only. The account password must match on every server in the cluster.

Step 11 In the Administrator password window, enter the local Windows administrator password. Click Next.

Step 12 Enter the Private Password Phrase for the cluster; confirm the private password phrase, and click Next.

The private password phrase contains 1 to 15 characters. This phrase may contain English lower-case letters, English upper-case letters, Westernized Arabic numerals, and the following nonalphanumeric special characters: { } . < > : ? / | \ ` ~ ! @ $ ^ & * ( ) _ - +.

Step 4 Using the readme file as a reference, install the Cisco CallManager service release on every server in the cluster where Cisco CallManager is installed.

Step 5 Perform other post-installation tasks.


Viewing the Component Versions That Are Installed on the Server

The mcsver.exe program reports the current version of all installation components, including the operating system. Be aware that Cisco does not report the actual Cisco CallManager version through this program. Most of these components, run from the installation disks during the initial installation, no longer exist on the system.

The version for OS Image equals your operating system disk version number. The version of OS Image will change only if you do a new installation by using the Cisco IP Telephony Server Operating System Hardware Detection Disk.

Choose Start > Cisco OS Version to view the operating system image version that you have installed on your server

Installing a Cisco CallManager Security Agent

Cisco offers two security agent options. Both of these agents control system operations by using policies that allow or deny specific system actions before system resources are accessed.

Cisco Security Agent (CSA) for Cisco CallManager

CSA for Cisco CallManager provides a standalone agent and security policy that is designed to be used on all servers in the voice cluster. The policy that is included with this agent, which is configured specifically for Cisco CallManager and Customer Response Applications (CRA), cannot be updated or viewed. You can download the agent from CCO at http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cmva-3des.

Management Center for Cisco Security Agent (CSA MC)

If you want to add, change, delete, or view rules and policies that CSA for Cisco CallManager includes, or if you want to add support for non-Cisco approved, third-party applications, you must purchase and install the fully managed console, CSA MC. CSA MC requires a separate, dedicated server to be used as the management center. This management center allows you to create agent kits that are then distributed to agents that are installed on other network systems and servers.

Using the Cisco CallManager Music On Hold Disk or Download

When you install Cisco CallManager on your server, a default music on hold sample automatically installs for customer use. To increase your music on hold (MOH) selection, you may also install the Cisco CallManager Music On Hold Disk that ships with your Cisco IP Telephony Applications Server, or you may download one of the two following files via the web:

ciscocm-MusicOnHold, which is a set of wav files that provides the entire music selection from the disk

ciscocm-MusicOnHoldSampler, which is a small set of files that offers a sample of music that is available on the disk

For information on the MOH feature, refer to the latest version of the Cisco CallManager Features and Services Guide.

As a Cisco CallManager user, you can use any contents of the disk/files with music on hold. Because of licensing restrictions, you must not distribute the Cisco CallManager Music on Hold disk/files to anyone else, and you must not use it for any other purpose.

Reenabling Third-Party Applications, Antivirus Services, and Security Agents

Use the following procedure to reenable third-party applications, antivirus services, or security agents:


Step 1 Choose Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.

Step 2 Locate the third-party application, antivirus service, or security agent that you want to start, right-click the service, and choose Properties.

Step 3 In the Properties window, click the General tab.

Step 4 From the Startup type drop-down list box, choose Automatic.

Step 5 Click OK.

Step 6 In the Services window, right-click the application or service and click Start.


Adding New Subscriber Servers to the Cluster After the Installation

If you need to add servers to the cluster, perform the following tasks:


Caution If you changed any NT Service passwords on the servers in the cluster, you must use the password utility to reset the passwords to the default by using the Admin Utility. The installation fails if you do not to perform this task.

1. Install the operating system on the subscriber server(s) by using the Cisco-provided operating system disks and the operating system documentation.

2. Verify that you configured name resolution, for example, DNS, before you install Cisco CallManager.

3. Install Cisco CallManager on the subscriber server(s) by using the Cisco CallManager Installation, Upgrade, and Recovery Disks 1 and 2.

Make sure that you enter the publisher database server name correctly, so authentication to the publisher database server can occur.

4. Upgrade to the version of Cisco CallManager that currently runs in the cluster.

5. Install the same Cisco CallManager service release and operating system hotfixes/service patch that you have applied to the existing cluster.

6. Reboot all nodes in the cluster.

Replacing the Publisher Database Server After the Installation

To replace an existing or failed server, perform the following steps:

1. Install the operating system and the Cisco CallManager software as if it were a new installation by using the Cisco-provided operating system disks and the operating system documentation.

2. Upgrade to the version of the Cisco CallManager that you want to restore.

3. If necessary, reinstall the Cisco IP telephony applications, plugins, and service releases to the version that is compatible with the restored version of Cisco CallManager.

4. To obtain the locales that were used prior to the restoration, reinstall the Cisco IP Telephony Locale Installer.

5. Restore the backup data to the new server and reboot the server.

To restore the data, you must have backup data stored on tape or on a network directory, not on the local directory of the existing or failed server.

6. Verify that the data was restored to the new server.

7. If you are replacing a server with four drives, Cisco recommends that you set the trace directory path on the server to the default C: drive before you backup your server.

8. If your server has four drives, you can configure the trace drive for trace file collection.

Requirement for Installation of Java Virtual Machine

The Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (MSJVM) technology allows Java applications to run on Microsoft Windows-based computers. Some versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer (a component of the Windows operating systems) included MSJVM, but Microsoft has discontinued distribution of MSJVM in its software and announced end of life support for the product.

MSJVM installed by default in all client workstation versions of the current Windows operating systems, except for the following version:

Windows XP Professional with SP1 slipstreamed into the installation

Windows 2000 Server/Professional with SP4 slipstreamed into the installation


Note Because the Cisco CallManager Administration windows depend on remote scripts, which depend on the JVM for web interaction, Cisco CallManager requires the use of JVM on the client machine to ensure that Cisco CallManager Administration display correctly.


If your client machine runs MSJVM, you can continue to use the existing configuration to browse into the Cisco CallManager Administration windows and perform administration tasks.

If you do not have MSJVM installed on your client machine (or if you receive an error message stating that Cisco CallManager cannot detect JVM on the client machine), and you need to perform Cisco CallManager Administration tasks, you must install and configure the Sun Microsystems' Java Virtual Machine (JVM) on the client machine. (The Sun JVM is part of the Java 2 Runtime Environment—JRE.) In addition, you must configure the browser security to be Java-enabled. See the "JRE Installation" section for information about installing JRE on the client machine.

If you are not sure if MSJVM is installed on the client machine, you can install the Sun J2RE anyway. You would then have two Java Runtime Environments installed and running on your machine.


Tip If you run two separate JVM products (MSJVM and Sun J2RE) on your client machine, be sure to download and install patches and security updates for each JVM from the appropriate software vendor (Microsoft and Sun).


JRE Installation

As part of the Cisco CallManager installation, the system provides the Sun JRE client software in a zip file that is installed on the Cisco CallManager server.


Note Windows XP/XP Professional includes a built-in tool that handles zip files. If you use Windows 2000 as your operating system, you must obtain a separate compression utility (such as WinZip) to store and access zip files.



Tip Be sure you install Cisco IP Telephony operating system version 2000.2.7 with the latest service release 2000.2-7-sr1 (or later) before you install Cisco CallManager release 4.1(3).


To install the JRE software for the client PC, follow these steps:

Procedure


Step 1 From the Cisco CallManager server, navigate to the C:\utils\JRE directory and search for the J2RE_Client_<jre version>.zip file.

The following example shows a zip file name:

J2RE_Client_1.4.2_05.zip

Note Only the Cisco CallManager Administrator can access the JRE software on the Cisco CallManager server; to enable access to other users, copy the J2RE_Client_<jre version>.zip file to a server that all users can share.


Step 2 Right-click the J2RE_Client_<jre version>.zip file and click Copy to copy the file to your client PC.

Step 3 Double-click the J2RE_Client_<jre version>.zip file to unzip the Sun J2RE installation executable.

Step 4 Double-click the installation executable file on the client PC.

The following example shows a installation executable file name:

j2re-1_4_2_04-windows-i586-p.exe

Note The exact file name of the installation executable file changes with each version as the new version number is incorporated into the name.


The JRE software installs in the C:\Program Files\Cisco\Java\JRE directory.


Verifying and Reinitializing Subscriber Connections

If the connections between the publisher database server and the subscribers within a cluster are broken for any reason, you cannot copy the database to the subscribers.

Verifying the Status of the Subscription

To determine whether the connections between the publisher database server and the subscribers within a cluster are broken, wait 35 minutes after you have installed the last subscriber in the cluster. Then, open SQL Server Enterprise Manager. If a red X icon appears next to the subscription, it indicates that the subscription is broken.

Reinitializing the Subscription/Starting the Replication Snapshot Agent

If you determine that one or more subscription connections are broken, as indicated by the red X icon next to the subscriptions, reinitialize the subscriptions and start the replication snapshot agent on the publisher database server.

Procedure

Resolving Name Resolution Failures

Cisco CallManager requires NetBIOS and IP name resolution. An incorrect WINS (NetBIOS) or DNS (IP) configuration could result in a service outage.

To resolve name resolution failures, consult with your network administrator to confirm NetBIOS and IP name resolution within the entire network, which includes local device IP configurations, local device name resolution (LMHOSTS and HOSTS), network-based name resolution systems (WINS and DNS), and DHCP systems.


Note Cisco recommends that you use either local or network-based name resolution and not both at the same time.



Note If you use local name resolution and you change the IP address of any server, you must update the LMHOSTS and HOSTS files of every affected server within the network accordingly. For the changes to take effect, either reboot each affected server or complete the tasks in Step 4.



Note If you use a network-based name resolution and you change the IP address of any server, you must update the WINS and DNS (including RARP) systems. For the changes to take effect, either reboot each affected server or complete the tasks in Step 4.


Procedure


Step 1 Obtain the IP address, hostname, and DNS suffix of each server in the cluster by using the ipconfig /all and hostname commands on each server.

Step 2 Populate the hosts files on each server in the cluster with the names and IP addresses of all servers in the cluster. Find the hosts files in c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc.

The following example illustrates a hosts file where cm1 represents the hostname and mydomain.com represents the default DNS suffix or connection-specific DNS suffix from the ipconfig /all command output.

127.0.0.1 localhost
1.3.5.9 cm1 cm1.mydomain.com
1.2.4.8 cm2 cm2.mydomain.com

Step 3 Populate the lmhosts files on each server in the cluster with the names and IP addresses of all servers in the cluster. Find the lmhosts files in c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc.

The following example illustrates a lmhosts file where cm1 represents the hostname.

1.3.5.9 cm1 #PRE
1.2.4.8 cm2 #PRE

Step 4 For the changes to take effect, issue the following commands on each server:

ipconfig /flushdns
nbtstat -R


Note Be aware that the letter "R" is case sensitive in the command.


Step 5 Confirm the changes were successfully loaded by performing the following procedures:

a. Examine the output of nbtstat -c

The names of all other servers in the cluster should appear with a life of -1. The names appear multiple times.

The following example represents the output of the nbtstat -c command:

Example 1 NetBIOS Remote Cache Name Table

Obtaining Technical Assistance

For all customers, partners, resellers, and distributors who hold valid Cisco service contracts, Cisco Technical Support provides 24-hour-a-day, award-winning technical assistance. The Cisco Technical Support Website on Cisco.com features extensive online support resources. In addition, Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) engineers provide telephone support. If you do not hold a valid Cisco service contract, contact your reseller.

Cisco Technical Support Website

The Cisco Technical Support Website provides online documents and tools for troubleshooting and resolving technical issues with Cisco products and technologies. The website is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport

Access to all tools on the Cisco Technical Support Website requires a Cisco.com user ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a user ID or password, you can register at this URL:

Submitting a Service Request

Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool automatically provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request will be assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553 2447

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is "down," or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
