Preface
Audience
The Cisco Unity Installation Guide is intended for installers of Cisco Unity™ systems. If you are installing Cisco Unity as an e-mail server or on a network with existing Microsoft Exchange servers, you need a working knowledge of Exchange and Microsoft Windows 2000. The Cisco Unity Installation Guide focuses on Cisco Unity. It does not provide extensive information about Exchange or Windows.
Organization and Use
The Cisco Unity Installation Guide contains instructions for installing a Cisco Unity system in four different configurations, and for upgrading an existing Cisco Unity system.
Chapter 1, "Cisco Unity Configuration Overview," defines the Cisco Unity configurations and the two types of systems—baseline and component.
"Installing a Cisco Unity System," provides installation task lists that reference sections containing detailed instructions in the rest of the guide. Use the task list for your system type—component or baseline—to install the Cisco Unity system correctly.
Chapter 3, "Upgrading the Cisco Unity System from Version 2.x to 3.0," provides upgrade task lists that reference sections containing detailed instructions in the rest of the guide. Use the task list for your upgrade method to upgrade the Cisco Unity system correctly.
Chapter 4, "Upgrading a Cisco Unity 3.0 System," contains information for upgrading an existing Cisco Unity 3.0 system.

Technical Assistance Center
The Cisco TAC is available to all customers who need technical assistance with a Cisco product, technology, or solution. Two types of support are available through the Cisco TAC: the Cisco TAC Web Site and the Cisco TAC Escalation Center.
Inquiries to Cisco TAC are categorized according to the urgency of the issue:
•Priority level 4 (P4)—You need information or assistance concerning Cisco product capabilities, product installation, or basic product configuration.
•Priority level 3 (P3)—Your network performance is degraded. Network functionality is noticeably impaired, but most business operations continue.
•Priority level 2 (P2)—Your production network is severely degraded, affecting significant aspects of business operations. No workaround is available.
•Priority level 1 (P1)—Your production network is down, and a critical impact to business operations will occur if service is not restored quickly. No workaround is available.
Which Cisco TAC resource you choose is based on the priority of the problem and the conditions of service contracts, when applicable.
Cisco TAC Web Site
The Cisco TAC Web Site allows you to resolve P3 and P4 issues yourself, saving both cost and time. The site provides around-the-clock access to online tools, knowledge bases, and software. To access the Cisco TAC Web Site, go to the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/tac
All customers, partners, and resellers who have a valid Cisco services contract have complete access to the technical support resources on the Cisco TAC Web Site. The Cisco TAC Web Site requires a Cisco.com login ID and password. If you have a valid service contract but do not have a login ID or password, go to the following URL to register:
http://www.cisco.com/register/
If you cannot resolve your technical issues by using the Cisco TAC Web Site, and you are a Cisco.com registered user, you can open a case online by using the TAC Case Open tool at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/tac/caseopen
If you have Internet access, it is recommended that you open P3 and P4 cases through the Cisco TAC Web Site.
Cisco TAC Escalation Center
The Cisco TAC Escalation Center addresses issues that are classified as priority level 1 or priority level 2; these classifications are assigned when severe network degradation significantly impacts business operations. When you contact the TAC Escalation Center with a P1 or P2 problem, a Cisco TAC engineer will automatically open a case.
To obtain a directory of toll-free Cisco TAC telephone numbers for your country, go to the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml
Before calling, please check with your network operations center to determine the level of Cisco support services to which your company is entitled; for example, SMARTnet, SMARTnet Onsite, or Network Supported Accounts (NSA). In addition, please have available your service agreement number and your product serial number.
