Introduction

Cisco CallManager, a network business communication system, provides high-quality telephony over IP networks. Cisco CallManager enables the conversion of conventional, proprietary, circuit-switched PBXs to multiservice, open LAN systems.

System Requirements

Make sure you install and configure Cisco CallManager Release 3.1 on a Cisco Media Convergence Server.

You may also install Cisco CallManager on a Cisco-approved Compaq server configuration or a Cisco-approved IBM server configuration.


Caution The installation will not complete if you do not follow the exact configuration.

Access the correct Cisco-approved server configuration for IBM server or Compaq server at

http://www.cisco.com/go/swonly

For system hardware component information and system requirements, refer to Installing Cisco CallManager Release 3.1.

IBM xSeries 340 and 330 Server Recommendations

For xSeries 340 servers that have the ServerRAID-4Lx Ultra 160 (part number 06P5740), you must upgrade the RAID controller BIOS/firmware to a minimum level of 4.80.26. Without this BIOS/firmware load, CD 1 will not install.

Cisco recommends that if you are deploying an xSeries 340 server with a 20/40 GB DDS/4 4-mm tape drive (marketing part number for tape drive 00N7991), update your tape drive firmware to the latest version 8.160 with a release date of 2/19/01. This upgrade improves the performance of your tape drive.

Cisco recommends that if you are deploying the IBM xSeries 330 or 340 servers, update your Advanced Systems Management Processor (ASMP) firmware if necessary.

For the xSeries 340, the ASMP firmware load should be v1.15 dated 4/16/2001, and for the xSeries 330, the ASMP firmware load should be v1.04 dated 4/9/2001. The firmware upgrade ensures UM Services compatibility.

Table 3 Open Caveats for Cisco CallManager Release 3.1(2c)

DDTS number
Description

CSCds67777

Blind transfer cannot complete successfully.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCds75317

Redirecting a call to calling party causes problems.

Workaround: Do not redirect the call to the caller.

CSCdt26108

User cannot open two lines on one computer telephony integration (CTI ) port.

The TSP does not support the Cisco CallManager configuration of two more lines per CTI port device.

Workaround: Configure the Cisco CallManager to have only one line per CTI port device.

CSCdt86546

Redirect to busy route point succeeds, but the caller receives a busy tone.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdt95739

Caller ID overwrites call parked number.

In a site where incoming number of calls is high, if a call is placed on park and an incoming call comes in immediately, the call park number gets overwritten, and the user cannot see the number.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu06412

Incorrect interpretation of the disconnect cause occurs.

A route list consists of two route group. One route group uses local gateway (local call), and the other route group uses remote gateway (long distance call). One route group that uses local gateway fails due to User Busy on the called side.

Workaround: Use the route group that chooses local gateway.

CSCdu12232

Multicast functionality fails for music on hold.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu14950

Out call voice-mail ports are locking up after a few hours of reset.

Workaround: Reset gateway.

CSCdu29151

Cisco CallManager upgrade resets directory security on IIS virtual webs.

This happens whenever a user performs a Cisco CallManager upgrade, the directory security for the IIS virtual webs is reset to the default.

Workaround: Go into Internet Services Manager (under Administrative Tools) and set the directory security to the desired settings.

CSCdu31271

User cannot add G.729 call to a software conference bridge.

Workaround: None exists. This works as designed. Software conference bridge only supports G.711.

CSCdu32362

CPU runs at 100 percent with svchost.exe consuming most of the CPU time.

This occurred under a heavy call load. Application was unable to accept calls within 4 seconds.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu34488

User cannot complete call over H.323 gateway when in 729 region.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu38120

Counter does not appear to function properly during a conference call.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu38419

H.245 packet precedence is not getting set properly.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu43682

30VIP second line does not go off hook correctly when VM/SD is pressed.

Workaround: Go on hook and press line button for second line to get dial tone.

CSCdu47183

The delay before dialing timer for groundstart CAS is always set to 80-90 ms.

Workaround: No need exists to set this timer. It is always set to use 80-90 ms in the hardware to meet the EIA464 requirement.

CSCdu47196

A call through a PSTN on Cisco CallManager 3.0(X) cluster will be dropped if Cisco IP phone on Cisco CallManager 3.1(1) puts the call on hold.

The called dropped because of interoperability between Cisco CallManager 3.1(1) and Cisco CallManager 3.0(X) when Music on Hold occurs between clusters. The held call drops immediately when MOH is attached. Cisco CallManager drops the held call due to StartMediaTransmission with zero IP address and port number to the gateway when one-way streaming is established by MOH.

Workaround: Enable MTP check box in the H.323 intercluster trunk configuration page at cluster running Cisco CallManager 3.1(1).

CSCdu48051

Cisco CallManager sends RST for TCP SYN when queue is full.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu53300

The device pool and Cisco CallManager group information in CTI Manager is inconsistent.

If device pool, Cisco CallManager group, or Cisco CallManagers in a Cisco CallManager group are modified when no CTI application is logged on, CTI Manager will not have the recently modified Device Pool and Call Manager Group information.

Workaround: When the CTI application is logged on, reset the devices that are affected by the change in device pool, User hears no distinctive ring on calls that route through H.323 gateway or Cisco CallManagers.

CSCdu54196

For Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), you cannot set cdpInterfaceEnable to true or false.

Workaround: Alternatively, Enable/disable cdp via the Win2k Device Manager as follows:


Step 1 In Windows 2000 Control Panel Menu, double click "System" and choose Hardware > Device Manager.

Step 2 Go to "View" and choose both "Devices by connection" and "Show hidden devices."

Step 3 Double click "Cisco Discovery Protocol;" then, choose "Driver" tab.

Step 4 Choose "stop" to disable the cdp or "start" to enable the cdp.

Make sure CDP is enabled at all times for CiscoWorks2000 to discover the CCM server.

CSCdu56651

Call from Mobile Office Network phone through Cisco Access Digital Trunk Gateway DT24+ fails to establish.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu58609

Modifying route list parameter within existing route pattern fails.

Workaround: Restart the Cisco CallManager service.

CSCdu61559

Cisco CallManager install fails due to integrated install and/or install shield issues.

A combination of factors caused this problem:

The extracted InstallShield setup files from a previous incomplete/aborted install exist in the %TEMP% folder.

InstallShield Engine, C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine\IKernel.exe, version mismatch exists:

Workaround:


Step 1 Delete all the files from the folder pointed to by the environment variable %TEMP%; typically, C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp.

Step 2 Delete the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine.

Step 3 Rerun the install.

CSCdu63020

Stopping the CMI service causes a call to go to open tree for voice-mail number.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu64779

A 1-second delay occurs on request to the OLC with call forward all through an H.323 gateway.

An issue exists in the H.245 negotiation between the IOS gateway and Cisco CallManager: the Cisco CallManager is waiting 1 second (after receiving the H.245 OLC request from GW) before sending the H.245 OLC request.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu65117

No ringback occurs when parked call reverts to parking party.

When a call is parked, the parked user will receive Music on Hold or Tone on Hold. If the parked call is not retrieved within the CallParkReversionTimeout, the phone that parked the call will begin to ring. At this point, the parked party will not receive Music or Tone on Hold any more and will not receive ringback, leading the parked party to think the call has been dropped.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu68370

Completing a transfer call fails when it is set up manually.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu73294

TSP crashes when Cisco IP SoftPhone tries to conference in the Cisco Conference Connection.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu75418

MWI does not light for new partition without restarting Cisco CallManager service.

Workaround: Stop and start the MWI service.

CSCdu77097

The pilot number does not process the order of the hunt group correctly in an intercluster environment.

Workaround: Turn off/on servers or stop/start CTI and TCD services.

CSCdu77512

Cisco CallManager route filter clauses are ignored beyond 1024 character limit.

Workaround: Stop clauses for the first route filter before the 1024 character limit. Create a second route filter that contains the rest of the clauses. Create two duplicate route patterns and assign one route filter to each route pattern.

CSCdu77516

User receives a failure response from lineUnHold when consult call is offering.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu79855

cgpnVoiceMailBox is incorrect when skinny port goes off hook with cgpn.

Workaround: A partial workaround is to blank the PA port Voice Message Box on the Directory Number Configuration page.

CSCdu81246

Speed dial configuration display text field does not reflect real space.

Workaround: None exists. The length of the speed-dial fields shown on the administration pages differs from the amount of space for any device. This works as designed. Different devices can display different lengths of text. For instance, the speed-dial length of a Cisco IP Phone 7960 differs from Cisco IP Phone 7935 length. Because the lengths of devices that are being developed will undoubtedly be different, we chose to support longer lengths that may be used in the future.

CSCdu84212

Modem connections on C6624 FXS are a low speed or unreliable.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu86461

No translation occurs when DN is unregistered (gets wrong mailbox).

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu88835

AST application can be launched by any user in the same domain as the server.

Workaround: After changing AST file security settings to "Administrators" and removing "Everyone," the IIS Web server can block user domain accounts and accepts only Administrator accounts.

CSCdv00313

Backup and restore does not account for new and old oid schema differences.

This can occur if the user upgrades to Cisco CallManager 3.1 and performs an MCS Backup, then reinstalls the server from scratch using CallManager 3.1 software and performs the MCS Restore.

Workaround: Install the DC Directory schema with the "oldoid" structure, compile it, and restart the DC Directory service and IIS Admin service.

To compile DC Directory schema (with oldoid), perform the following instructions:


Step 1 Go to C:\dcdsrvr\bin from command line

Step 2 Run "dcschema <dcd schema with full path> RELOAD -j jview"

CSCdv05069

The DC directory may fail on upgrade from Cisco CallManager 3.0 to Cisco CallManager 3.1.

This failure occurred when an upgrade from Cisco CallManager 3.0 to Cisco CallManager 3.1 is performed and the account lockout policy is set to true. In one instance, the Cisco CallManager server was part of a Windows 2000 Active Directory Domain.

Workaround: Reset the administrator account password to "" (blank). If your current domain password policy does not allow blank passwords, you may have to temporarily remove the server from the domain to be able to set a blank password. Reboot the system. Redo the upgrade once you are successfully able to log in as the administrator.

CSCdv05335

Hold, transfer, and conference drop call when MOH codec is not enabled for MOH region.

Workaround: Enable the MOH server to stream the codec for the configured MOH region. Example: If the MOH server is a g729 region, enable the MOH server to stream g729.

CSCdv07391

An attempt to forward all calls to voice mail does not work for Cisco IP SoftPhone.

Workaround: Open Cisco CallManager administration. Choose Device > Phone to set the Forward All Destination of the Cisco IP Softphone directory number to the Voice Mail Port directory number.

CSCdv07517

Recall of a parked call does not reveal it was a parked call

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv08938

External calls made through a PSTN to a Cisco IP Interactive Voice Response system fail intermittently.

After an upgrade to Cisco CallManager 3.1(1) and Cisco Customer Response Applications 2.2.1, users experience a fast busy during these failed calls. Internally, calls from IP phones to the IVR system work each time.

Workaround: Make sure that both ends of the T1 span are not configured for bottom-up or top-down operation.

CSCdv09251

Garbage characters appear in Cisco CallManager trace.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv09969

Analog ports may not function on Cisco Catalyst 6000 24 Port FXS Analog Interface Module gateway.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv10288

When you try to log in to the Cisco WebAttendant, an error message displays: "Phone device was found. However the device is not read."

Workaround: Check that the DeviceAuthorithzationRequired field is set to false for CtiFw profile in the DCD setting. The flag should be automatically set for CtiFw when you do the DCD install/upgrade in Cisco CallManager Release 3.1.

CSCdv12935

Perfmon and AST report incorrect values for active calls.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv13266

Software conference bridge uses different RTP send/receive port breaks using NAT/PAT.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv15122

The Cisco IP Phone 7960 and 7940 will not request the idle URL after the idle timer, configured in enterprise parameters, expires. This occurs because the idle timer value at the phone level will not accept a null value. It will always update to 0 second. This value overrides the idle timer value at the enterprise parameter level.

Workaround: Configure the desired idle timer value on each phone that needs to request the idle URL.

CSCdv15124

Invalid Media_SilenceSuppression value is sent to phone.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv16837

The name display of the person whose phone is forwarded will not show up on the forwarded-to phone.

This can happen if the line where the call forward is located has no devices registered to a Cisco CallManager that has line appearance.

Workaround: Register a phone to the Cisco CallManager that has the line that is forwarding to the target line, and the name display will show up.

CSCdv17695

Redirect reason code for call forward is set incorrectly from hunt group route points.

Calls forwarding to voice mail from a hunt group route point fail to integrate with the proper voice-mail box.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv17901

XML services take 60 seconds to display after URL redirect occurs.

Workaround: Change the services URL to point to the URL, which is being pointed to by the redirected URL. This skips the redirecting step.

Cisco WebAttendant fails to install in Windows 2000 and Windows 98SE.

Workaround: Install Cisco WebAttendant. After rebooting, run Regsvr32.exe on the dll files in C:\Program Files\Cisco\WebAttendant\dll.

CSCdv19260

A dual-boot from Cisco CallManager 3.1 to a SIP/MGCP image does not work.

Workaround: Use a unix2dos conversion on the OS79XX.TXT file or use a Windows TFTP server. The Linux/Unix TFTP servers add the linefeed when VI is used to edit the file.

CSCdv20147

Route-list fails over to the next route when called party is busy.

Cisco CallManager does not recognize the "User Busy," "Number out of Order," or "Number not Configured" as a valid reason to stop searching for alternative routes. This problem occurred when an extension matching a route-pattern associated with a route-list containing multiple routes to the destination is called.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv20163

A need exists to assign a primary extension from a virtual template.

Workaround: Configure a nonexisting phone and configure the primary extension to be its primary line; then, associate that phone (device) to the mobile user.

CSCdv20206

Call drops when put on hold through H.323 gateway using G729 codec.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv20870

Database Layer Monitor and CTI Manager do not install on upgrade to Cisco CallManager 3.1.

Workaround: If the services are missing, enter the following commands to add the service that is missing:


Caution Only enter the commands for the services that are missing. Entering the commands from the DOS command line for existing services will delete that service.

Enter the following commands into a command prompt window:

If missing the Cisco Database Layer Monitor, enter aupair.exe -service

If missing the CTI Manager, enter ctimanager.exe -service

If missing the Cisco Messaging Interface, enter ciscomessaginginterface.exe -service

If missing the Cisco CallManager service, enter ccm.exe -service

CSCdv21155

An incorrect call forward reason is sent to CMI on a direct call.

This problem occurred when voice mail is called directly using CMI. SMDI message reports a call forward all reason instead of a direct call reason (Cisco CallManager is sending an 'A' reason instead of a 'D' reason.) This affects voice mail users when they call voice mail to retrieve their messages.

Workaround: Two possible workarounds exist:

Option 1: Configure an empty voice-mail profile and assign it a CMI port DN.

Option 2: Configure a route pattern to reach CMI ports.

CSCdv23361

JTAPI throws null pointer exception and fails to deliver.

Workaround: The null pointer is noticed only when the external caller and the agent have the same directory number. To avoid this problem, configure agents with numbers that cannot be part of an external caller set.

CSCdv24095

Performance Monitor and Admin Serviceability Tool displays an incorrect value for TranscoderRsourceActive. These tools may display that resources are being used when, in reality, zero resources are being used.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv24207

SNMP service on IBM330 does not load SnmpCcm and SnmpCdp agent.

Workaround: A problem exists due to loading of a COM DLL if the IBM UMS service is loaded before the SnmpSysApp agent.

To prevent this problem, open the registry using the command regedit.

Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents.

Delete the string value for SOFTWARE\IBM\UMS\SNMP\CurrentVersion

Create a new key "z16" below "SysApp" and assign it value "SOFTWARE\IBM\UMS\SNMP\CurrentVersion"

Restart SNMP service.

CSCdv24332

Installing directory config plugin knocks the CCMLinkLine state to 1.

Workaround: Use the DC Directory.

CSCdv25862

Inconsistent off-hook behavior occurs with multiple shared lines. Holding call can get stranded when a new call is started on same line.

Workaround: Manually select non-busy line appearance before picking up receiver.

CSCdv26206

Channel does not get released when phone disconnects.

Workaround: Reset the Cisco Access Digital Trunk Gateway DE-30+ to release the channel.

CSCdv26305

User cannot use the "Enter" key to complete the call after the consult.

Workaround: Use mouse to click transfer.

CSCdv27480

Setting up Cisco WebAttendant pilot number on the subscriber Cisco CallManager fails.

Workaround: Configure the pilot point number on the primary Cisco CallManager.

CSCdv27650

Phone resets if multicasting is used for hold operation.

This problem occurred when two MOH servers were used for multicasting.

Workaround: Use less than five audio files for multicasting.

CSCdv27760

Upgrade from Cisco CallManager 3.0(11) to 3.1,DCDirectory service will not start.

Workaround: Search for the files "ACSE.TPL" and "ACSE.xv2" on the server and copy to c:\dcdsrvr\run\dcx500 directory and then manually start the DCDirectory service.

CSCdv28088

When Cisco IP Softphone 1.2 connects to Cisco CallManager 3.1(1), lines only appear intermittently.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdv28472

A shared line may become stuck "In Use Remotely" on all but one of the phones with that line appearance.

Workaround: Reset all phones sharing line that are showing false "In Use Remotely."

CSCdv33549

Call forward busy and call forward no answer stop working.

When the subscriber restarts, Cisco CallManager may stop forwarding calls when a line is busy and may also stop forwarding calls when the call goes unanswered.

The problem occurs when the SyncUpDBAfterLinkOOSFlag is set to true.

Workaround: Do not set the SyncUpDBAfterLinkOOSFlag to true. The flag has been set to false under the Cisco CallManager service parameter window for this release.

Firmware

CSCdu45576

First incoming call after power-cycle does not have "Answer" softkey.

After first booting up, a Cisco IP Phone 7960 shows "Redial" and "End Call" instead of "Answer" when it receives a call. All subsequent calls have the correct "Answer" softkey.

Workaround: Make one call to the Cisco IP Phone 7960 after it boots up, and all subsequent calls will be correct.

CSCdu64888

Because a call in progress will be lost, phone upgrades should be buffered.

Workaround: None exists.

CSCdu67286

Ringer resets to Chirp 1 on 3.0(X) to 3.1(X) upgrade.

Workaround: After the phone has been upgraded to CallManager 3.1, manually change the ring to the desired state.

CSCdv03757

Phone will not reconnect to Cisco CallManager if the Cisco CallManager is unreachable for more than 15 minutes.

This can occur if the IP network between the Cisco CallManager and the IP phone is lost for more than 15 minutes. This will only occur when the Cisco CallManager servers are configured by name rather than IP address in the datatbase, and the phone is isolated from the DNS server during the same time.

Workaround: Two possible workarounds exists:

Option 1: Reset the IP phone.

Option 2: Configure the database to use the IP addresses of the Cisco CallManagers instead of server names. To do this, open Cisco CallManager Administration, choose System/Server and change the DNS\IP address field to the IP address of the server.

CSCdv19795

Cisco IP Phone 7910 does not show CallPark destination.

Call park button on Cisco IP Phone 7910 parks call but does not indicate to which extension the call is parked.

This occurs although the CP-7910 IP phone does not have a predefined call park button; however, you can reassign a speed-dial button as call park. When doing so, it becomes possible to use the call park function; however, your display will not show you the call park extension on which your call was placed. This function works on Cisco IP Phone 7940 and 7960.

Workaround: None exists.


Documentation Updates

The following section provides documentation changes that were unavailable when the Cisco CallManager Release 3.1(1) documentation suite was released.

Changes

Getting Started Title Changes

The Cisco CallManager Administration Guide and Cisco CallManager System Guide refer to the Getting Started publications provided with your phones.

Cisco IP Phone Models 7960 and 7940 User Guide replaces the Getting Started with the Cisco IP Phone 7940/7960. This document and the Getting Started with the Cisco IP Phone 7910 do not ship with the phone but are available on CCO and can be ordered.

With Release 3.1(2c), the documentation that appears on CCO corrects this error, but the incorrect titles remain in Online Help.

Cisco IP Phone 7900 Family Administration Guide Title Changes

The Cisco CallManager Administration Guide and Cisco CallManager System Guide also refer to the Cisco IP Phone 7900 Family Administration Guide. This document has been renamed to Cisco IP Phone Administration Guide for Cisco CallManager.

With Release 3.1(2c), the documentation that appears on CCO corrects this error, but the incorrect titles remain in Online Help.

Remote Serviceability and Troubleshooting Information Changes Book

Serviceability Administration Guide includes instructions to configure remote serviceability and to use the Cisco CallManager Trace for diagnostic traces.

Omissions

Maintaining Cisco IP Phone Services List

Using Cisco CallManager Administration, you define and maintain the list of Cisco IP Phone Services to which users can subscribe at their site. You can also create parameters for each service that require users to enter data in the Cisco IP Phone User Options application before subscribing to that service.

In the 3.1(1) release, you can mask entries in the Cisco IP Phone User Options application, so asterisks display rather than the actual user entry. You may want to do this for parameters such as passwords that you do not want others to be able to view. To mask a parameter entry, check the Parameter is a Password (mask contents) field on the Configure Cisco IP Phone Service Parameter window in CallManager Administration.

With Release 3.1(2c), the documentation that appears on CCO incorporates this information, but the information remains absent in Online Help.

Corrections

Cisco CallManager Release 3.1(1) supports Cisco Unity Version 2.4(6.135). The Cisco CallManager System Guide incorrectly states that Cisco CallManager Release 3.1(1) requires Cisco Unity Version 3.0(1).

With Release 3.1(2c), the documentation that appears on CCO corrects this error, but the incorrect information remains in Online Help.
