Resetting Security-Monitoring Software After the Installation Programs Have Been Run
You reset the security-monitoring programs you disabled in the "Setting Security-Monitoring Software Before Running the Installation Programs" section now that the programs for preparing the system and installing the Cisco Unity software have been run. If you are re-enabling virus-scanning services, you also need to exclude two directories from scanning.
See the applicable sections:
•Re-enabling Virus-Scanning Services and Excluding Two Directories from Scanning
•Resetting the IDS Host Sensor Agent to Run in On-Protecting Mode
Re-enabling Virus-Scanning Services and Excluding Two Directories from Scanning
When you re-enable virus-scanning services, you need to exclude from scanning the directory in which Cisco Unity is installed so that the Cisco Unity Administrator and the Cisco Unity Assistant will work properly. If the Cisco Unity system is using Cisco IDS Host Sensor, you also need to exclude from scanning the directory in which the Cisco IDS Host Sensor Agent is installed, so that Cisco IDS Host Sensor will work properly.
To re-enable virus-scanning services and exclude two directories from scanning
Step 1 Refer to the virus-scanning software documentation to determine the names of the virus-scanning services.
Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.
Step 3 Re-enable each virus-scanning service:
a. In the right pane, double-click the service.

Step 6 If the Cisco Unity system is using Cisco IDS Host Sensor, exclude from virus scanning the directory in which Cisco IDS Host Sensor Agent is installed.
Resetting the IDS Host Sensor Agent to Run in On-Protecting Mode
You re-enable the IDS Host Sensor Agent on the Cisco Unity server by setting it to run in On-Protecting mode.
To reset the IDS Host Sensor Agent to run in On-Protecting mode
Step 1 On the server where the IDS Host Console is installed, on the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Cisco HIDS > Cisco HIDS Console.
Step 2 In the left pane of the Console, click Agents. The Agents view appears in the right pane.
Step 3 In the right pane, right-click the name of the IDS Host Sensor Agent on the Cisco Unity server, and click Set to Protecting Mode. Note that it may take several minutes for the Current State to match the Requested State.
Moving the Data Store Databases and Transaction Log Files
The Cisco Unity data store includes several databases and their corresponding transaction log files. Because the Cisco Unity and Reports databases and their log files are the fastest-growing data store files, you place them on the system in a way that makes optimum use of system storage capacity.
As you do the following procedure, if applicable, refer to the drive locations you made note of in the "Determining the Drive Locations for Files on the Cisco Unity System" section.
For more information on moving SQL Server or MSDE databases and transaction logs, refer to Microsoft documentation.
To move the SQL or MSDE databases and transaction log files
Step 1 Stop Cisco Unity (right-click the Cisco Unity icon in the system tray, then click Stop Cisco Unity; if the Cisco Unity icon is not available, browse to the CommServer directory and double-click AvCsTrayStatus.exe).
Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Run, then run cmd.
Step 3 Start OSQL by entering OSQL -E on the command line.
Caution OSQL commands are case-sensitive. Enter the instructions exactly as they appear in the procedure.
Step 4 Detach the databases from the data store application by entering the following instructions on the command line:
a. Enter use master, and press Enter.
b. Enter go, and press Enter.
c. Enter EXEC sp_detach_db 'UnityDb', and press Enter.
d. Enter go, and press Enter.
e. Enter EXEC sp_detach_db 'ReportDb', and press Enter.
f. Enter go, and press Enter.
Step 5 In Windows Explorer, create the new database and log destination directories on the drive locations you made note of in the "Determining the Drive Locations for Files on the Cisco Unity System" section. Use directory names that are easy to remember, for example:
UnityDb.mdf and
ReportDb.mdf
|
<Database destination drive>\<Path>\Unity Data
|
UnityDb_log.ldf and
ReportDb_log.ldf
|
<Log file destination drive>\<Path>\Unity Logs
|
Step 6 In Windows Explorer, copy the databases UnityDb.mdf and ReportDb.mdf from Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data to the new database destination(s).
Step 7 In Windows Explorer, copy the transaction log files UnityDb_log.ldf and ReportDb_log.ldf from Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data to the new log file destination(s).
Step 8 In OSQL, reattach the databases and log files to the data store application by entering the following instructions on the command line:
a. Enter use master, and press Enter.
b. Enter go, and press Enter.
c. Enter EXEC sp_attach_db 'UnityDb', '<Database destination drive>\<New database directory path>\UnityDb.mdf', '<Log file destination drive>\<New log file directory path>\UnityDb_log.ldf',
and press Enter.
d. Enter go, and press Enter.
e. Enter EXEC sp_attach_db 'ReportDb', '<Database destination drive>\<New database directory path>\ReportDb.mdf', '<Log file destination drive>\<New log file directory path>\ReportDb_log.ldf',
and press Enter.
f. Enter go, and press Enter.
Step 9 In OSQL, verify the change in the file locations by entering the following instructions on the command line:
a. Enter use UnityDb, and press Enter.
b. Enter go, and press Enter.
c. Enter sp_helpfile, and press Enter.
d. Enter go, and press Enter.
e. The file name column values should reflect the new locations.
Step 10 Enter exit, and press Enter to close OSQL.
Step 11 Optional: In Windows Explorer, rename each of the databases and log files in the old locations <Original file name and extension>.old. (For example, in its original location, rename UnityDb.mdf to UnityDb.mdf.old.)
Step 12 Restart Cisco Unity (right-click the Cisco Unity icon in the system tray, then click Start Cisco Unity; if the Cisco Unity icon is not available, browse to the CommServer directory and double-click AvCsTrayStatus.exe).
