System Requirements

•The Cisco Unity server must be running a version of Cisco Unity from version 2.4(6.135) through 3.1(2).

•An account with Local Administrator privileges must be used to upgrade or install the Cisco Unity-CM TSP. Otherwise, no Cisco Unity ports will be available after the upgrade or installation.

•On a Cisco Unity server running Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 must already be installed. Otherwise, the Cisco Unity-CM TSP cannot be installed.

•If you are changing the number of voice messaging ports on the Cisco Unity system, you must adjust the ports in Cisco CallManager before installing the Cisco Unity-CM TSP. Refer to the "Changing the Number of Voice Mail Ports" section in the "Cisco CallManager 3.x Integration" chapter of the applicable version of the Cisco CallManager integration guide. Because you are replacing the existing TSP, ignore the last procedure ("To change the number of voice mail ports specified for the TSP") in the section. Cisco CallManager integration guides are available on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/index.htm.

•If you are setting up a Cisco CallManager integration for the first time, refer to the applicable version of the Cisco CallManager integration guide, instead of using the instructions in these release notes. Cisco CallManager integration guides are available on Cisco.com at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_unity/index.htm.

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:
