The main Unified CVP window opens.

Step 2

Enter your user ID in the Username field.

Enter Administrator, which is the default user account.

Step 3

In the Password field, enter your password.

If you are logging in to the default Administrator account, enter the password that was set for this account during installation.

If the user ID or password is invalid, the Operations Console Server displays the message, "Invalid Username or password." Enter your user ID and password again and click OK.

The main Cisco Unified Customer Voice Portal window opens.

Step 4

Check your security policy and, if needed, change the settings to a less restrictive level.

Default security settings can prevent users from using the Operations Console.

System-Level Operation States

The Operations Console provides status information of for each device. A device can be in one of the states as listed in the following table.

Table 2. Description of States Displayed in the Status Window

State

Reasons

Success

Indicates that the operation was successful.

Pending

Indicates that the operation has not yet been run.

In Progress

Indicates that the operation is in progress.

Failed

The reasons for a failed deployment state are listed below:

  • Unable to locate IP address in the database

  • General database failure

  • The call server was not deployed

  • Unknown error

  • Notification error: Contact administrator

  • Could not write to properties file

  • The Call Server device is using an unknown version of the Unified CVP software

  • The Call Server device is using an older version of the Unified CVP software

  • Configuration not removed from the database

    This failure has multiple reasons:

    • Could not write to properties file

    • Device has not been deployed

    • General failure

    • Unable to access the Database

The reasons for a failed synchronization state are listed below:

  • Device is inaccessible

  • Authentication failure

  • Web service is not available on the device

  • General database error

  • General error

  • Unknown host address

  • SOAP service error


Note
If you make any configuration changes after your initial deployment of any System-level configuration tasks, deploy the changed configuration again.
