22. Customize the Cisco Unity system. See the "Customizing the Cisco Unity System" section.

Cisco Unity Activation Code

You must have an activation code for the system key to complete the Cisco Unity installation or upgrade. Cisco sends an e-mail with the code—which activates license settings—once the Cisco Unity software has been registered on Cisco.com.

A registration notice shipped with Cisco Unity contains instructions for registering the software. The resulting e-mail from Cisco instructs the recipient to save the code to a blank disk labeled "Cisco Unity Activation Code" and to store the disk with the Cisco Unity software and documentation.

If the Cisco Unity software has not been registered, do so immediately because it can take up to one business day to receive the activation code for the system key. See the following "Registering Cisco Unity" section for instructions on registering the software or on getting another copy of the activation code, if it has been misplaced.

The Cisco Unity installation instructions later in this chapter explain when to use the activation code.

Registering Cisco Unity

The Cisco Unity system key is shipped with a minimal number of settings. To activate the system key so that it includes the settings purchased by the customer, the Cisco Unity software must be registered on Cisco.com.

Within one business day of registration, you will receive an e-mail with a Cisco Unity activation code.

Registrations are processed only during regular business hours.


Caution You cannot complete the installation without a Cisco Unity activation code.

To register Cisco Unity on Cisco.com


Step 1 Browse to the applicable software registration site (URLs are case sensitive):


Step 2 Enter the requested information and submit the form. Within one business day of registration, you will receive an e-mail with the Cisco Unity activation code.

Step 3 Store this notice with the Cisco Unity software and documentation.

If the Cisco Unity activation code is misplaced or lost, it can take up to one business day to get another copy.


To get another copy of the activation code


Step 1 Call Cisco TAC:

In the U.S.

800 553-2447

Outside the U.S.

For your local TAC phone number, refer to the website

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml


Step 2 You will need to provide information to verify Cisco Unity ownership—for example, the purchase order number, the serial number on the system key, or the product authorization key in the Cisco Unity compact disc wallet.


Installing Voice Cards

Do this section if you are:

Installing a new Cisco Unity system.

Upgrading an existing system from version 2.x to version 3.0 and adding, changing, or removing voice cards.

For information on adding, changing, or removing voice cards in an existing Cisco Unity 3.0 system, see Chapter 4, "Upgrading a Cisco Unity 3.0 System."


Warning Before working on a system that has an on/off switch, turn OFF the power and unplug the power cord.



Warning Before opening the chassis, disconnect the telephone-network cables to avoid contact with telephone-network voltages.



Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.



Warning To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.



Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.



Warning This equipment is to be installed and maintained by service personnel only as defined by AS/NZS 3260 Clause 1.2.14.3 Service Personnel.



Warning The safety cover is an integral part of the product. Do not operate the unit without the safety cover installed. Operating the unit without the cover in place will invalidate the safety approvals and pose a risk of fire and electrical hazards.



Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.


To install voice cards


Step 1 If the server is already on, exit the Cisco Unity software and then shut down the server. For more information, see Appendix B, "Exiting and Starting the Cisco Unity Software and Server."

Step 2 Attach an antistatic wrist strap, and ground yourself to the Cisco Unity server.


Warning During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.


Step 3 Set the switches and jumpers on each card. See Appendix A, "Voice Cards," for information on hardware settings for your cards.

Some cards include hardware settings that indicate which card is first, which is second, and so on. If you are installing more than one card of the same model, keep the cards in order so you can install them in the correct order in Step 4.

If you are installing Dialogic D/120JCT-EURO or D/240PCI-T1 cards, do not do the procedure under "Software Settings" in Appendix A, "Voice Cards," at this time. The Cisco Unity Installation Guide alerts you when to do the procedure later in the installation.

Step 4 Insert each card firmly into its slot, and fasten each card to the computer backplate with a screw.

If you are installing more than one card of the same model, and if the cards include a hardware setting that indicates which card is first, second, and so on, install the cards in the order specified by the hardware settings.

If you are installing cards of different models in the same server, install cards of the same model adjacent to one another.

PCI cards can be put into either 32-bit or 64-bit PCI slots.

All cards with H.100 bus (also known as CT bus) connectors must be installed in the same server. If all the cards do not fit in the Cisco Unity server, then you must install all of them in an expansion chassis.

Step 5 If you are installing multiple voice cards that have H.100 bus connectors, cable the cards together. On each card, connect the cable so the red stripe on the cable corresponds with pin 1 on the card connector. Confirm that the connectors are firmly seated.


Caution If you do not cable cards together as required, the voice card software will not start, and Cisco Unity will not answer calls.

If the cable has more connectors than the server has voice cards, use the first and last connectors, and leave unused connectors in the middle of the cable. If the end of a cable is allowed to dangle loose, it can act as a radio antenna and pick up noise from the bus.

If you are cabling three or more cards together, connect the first connector on the cable to the first card, the second connector to the second card, and so on.


Setting Up the Cisco Unity Server

We recommend that you connect the Cisco Unity server to a dedicated uninterruptible power supply.

The server for a Cisco Unity baseline system is configured for a specific hardware setup. Do not add or change any hardware on the server, except to add voice cards or memory.

To set up the server


Step 1 Place the server near the phone system and a network connection, in a dry, cool area that is free of dust.

Step 2 Attach peripheral devices and the network cable, if applicable, to the server.

If you are setting up a Cisco MCS-7825 server (Compaq DL-320) and connecting it to the network, use only the bottom RJ-45 Ethernet receptacle.

Step 3 If the system key is a parallel key, attach the system key to the server. If you are connecting a printer to the server, plug the printer into the parallel port on the key.

If the system key is a USB key and you are setting up a baseline system, plug the key into any USB port now.

If the system key is a USB key and you are setting up a component system, wait to attach the key until after you have installed the USB key driver, later in this chapter.

Step 4 Connect the phone system to the server as described in the Cisco Unity integration guide for your phone system.

For pinout information, see the section for your voice card in Appendix A, "Voice Cards."

Step 5 If you are installing the Cisco Unity system outside the United States, if the server contains voice cards, and if the cards came with a ferrite clamp, attach the clamp around the analog phone lines as close to the server as possible.

Step 27 Uncheck the Show This Screen at Startup check box.

Step 28 Close the window.


Uninstalling Outlook 2000 (Baseline System Only)

Outlook 2000 is incompatible with Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000, and must be removed from a Cisco Unity baseline system. (Microsoft's announcement that Outlook 2000 was not supported on servers with Exchange 5.5 or Exchange 2000 installed came after the software environment for a Cisco Unity baseline system was created.)

To uninstall Outlook 2000


Step 1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.

Step 2 Remove Outlook 2000.


Installing Windows 2000 Server (Component System Only)

The following three procedures apply to installing Windows 2000 Server. However, the first procedure—making Windows 2000 Setup disks—applies only if the CD-ROM drive in the Cisco Unity server is not bootable. Do the first procedure, if necessary, before you install Windows 2000 Server.

The second and third procedures describe how to install Windows 2000 by using the compact discs that are currently shipping with Cisco Unity. Do the procedures in the order listed.

If you are using different compact discs, the installation process may differ.

For more detailed information on individual steps in the installation process, refer to the Windows 2000 documentation included with the software.

If you want to install the Cisco Unity server into a Windows NT 4.0 domain, the Cisco Unity server must be a member server, and you must use Exchange 5.5 instead of Exchange 2000.

To make Windows 2000 Setup disks


Step 1 Take Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 Disc 1 and four blank, formatted, high-density disks to a computer that has a CD-ROM drive and is running Windows 9x or Windows 2000.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 Disc 1 in the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 Browse to the Bootdisk directory.

Step 4 Double-click Makebt32.exe.

Step 5 Follow the on-screen prompts.


To install Windows 2000 Server


Step 1 If the system key is a USB key and if it is attached to the server, remove it.


Caution If you run the installation program with a USB system key attached to the server, then installing the correct driver for the USB key will not work properly.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 Disc 1 in the CD-ROM drive. If no operating system is installed on the server, change the BIOS so the system attempts to start from the CD-ROM drive before it attempts to start from the hard disk.

or

If the CD-ROM drive in the server is not bootable, insert Windows 2000 Setup Disk 1 in drive A.

Step 3 If you are not installing on a Dell server, restart the server and skip to Step 9.

If you are installing on a Dell server and are not installing a RAID, restart the server and skip to Step 9.

If you are installing on a Dell server and are installing a RAID, continue with Step 4.

Step 4 Restart the server, and press F6 as soon as the following message appears at the bottom of the screen: "Press F6 if you need to install a third-party SCSI or RAID controller."


Caution If you are not certain that you pressed F6 before the message cleared, restart the server and try again. This is the only opportunity you will have to indicate to the installation program that you are installing a RAID driver.

Step 5 When the text "Setup could not determine..." appears, press S to specify an additional device.

Step 6 When prompted, insert Dell PERC 2 RAID Driver Diskette B3070 for Windows 2000 in drive A, and press Enter.

Step 7 In the list, select DELL PERC 2 2, 2/Si, 3/Si, 3/Di Raid Controllers, and press Enter.

Step 8 When the text "Setup will load support..." appears, press Enter.

Step 9 Follow the on-screen prompts until you are prompted to specify the partition on which to install Windows 2000.

Step 10 If no operating system is installed on the server, skip to Step 11.

If you are installing Windows 2000 on the same partition where an operating system is already installed, select and delete that partition.

Step 11 Select the partition (or unpartitioned space) on which to install Windows 2000, and press Enter.

Step 12 If the partition you selected in Step 11 is unformatted, select Format the Partition Using the NTFS File System, and press Enter.

Otherwise, skip to Step 13.

Step 13 Follow the on-screen prompts until you are prompted to enter a product/CD key.

Step 14 Enter the key for Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 from the CD jewel case liner.

Step 15 Click Next.

Step 16 Follow the on-screen prompts until you are prompted to select a licensing mode.

Step 17 Click Per Seat for the licensing mode, then click Next to continue.

Step 18 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.

Step 19 At the end of the installation, click Finish, and the server automatically restarts.

Step 20 Log on to Windows 2000. The Windows 2000 Configure Your Server dialog box appears.

Step 21 Click I Will Configure This Server Later, and click Next.

Step 22 Uncheck the Show This Screen at Startup check box.

Step 23 Close the window.


To install Windows 2000 Service Pack 2


Step 1 Log on to Windows.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 Disc 2, Service Pack 2 in the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 Browse to the root directory, and double-click W2ksp2.exe.

Step 4 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.

Step 5 Remove the compact disc.

Step 6 Restart the server.


Installing Additional Windows 2000 Languages

If you want to view the Windows user interface in languages other than English, install the Windows 2000 Multilanguage User Interface and the applicable languages.

To install Windows 2000 Multilanguage User Interface


Step 1 Log on to Windows.

Step 2 Depending on which language(s) you want to install, insert the applicable Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 disc in the CD-ROM drive:

Cisco Unity
Operating System 2000 Disc 3

For Chinese (simplified), Chinese (traditional), Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, or Swedish.

Cisco Unity
Operating System 2000 Disc 4

For Arabic, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, or Turkish.


If the disc does not run automatically, browse to the root directory, and double-click Muisetup.exe.

Step 3 Check the check boxes for the languages you want to install, and click OK.

Step 4 Click OK.


Assigning a Static IP Address

The Cisco Unity server must have an IP address for network administration of Cisco Unity and for subscriber access to the Cisco Unity ActiveAssistant.

When a baseline system is connected to a network that has a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, the Cisco Unity server is configured to automatically obtain an IP address from the DHCP server. A component system with Windows 2000 installed by using the "Installing Windows 2000 Server (Component System Only)" section is also configured to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.

If the network does not have a DHCP server or if you prefer to manually assign a static IP address, do the following procedure.

To assign a static IP address


Step 1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel > Network and Dial-Up Connections > Local Area Connection.

Step 2 Click Properties.

Step 3 In the Components Checked Are Used by This Connection list, check the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) check box.

Step 4 Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) (do not uncheck the check box), and click Properties.

Step 5 Enter applicable values. For more information, refer to Windows 2000 Help.

Step 6 Click OK.

Step 7 Restart the server.


Verifying the IP Address

To verify the IP address


Step 1 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

Step 2 Find the IP address of a router or some other well-known name server on the same network segment as the Cisco Unity server. In the Command Prompt window, enter ipconfig /all, and press Enter.

Step 3 Ping the router or other server whose IP address you found in Step 2. In the Command Prompt window, enter ping <IP address>, and press Enter.

Step 4 If the router sends a reply, the Cisco Unity server has a valid IP address.

If the router does not reply, either the Cisco Unity server has a problem obtaining an address from the DHCP server, or the assigned static IP address conflicts with the IP address of another computer on the network. Verify the network settings. If needed, troubleshoot any problem as you would a network connectivity problem.


Installing the USB Key Driver and Attaching the USB System Key (Component System Only)

If the system key is a USB key and if you are installing Cisco Unity on a component system, install the driver for the key. (The driver is already installed on a baseline system.)

To install the USB key driver and attach the USB system key


Step 1 If you installed Windows 2000 while the USB key was attached, a default USB driver was installed automatically. Do the next procedure, "To remove the default USB driver" first.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Disc 1 in the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 Browse to the directory SecurityKeySetup, and double-click Setup.exe.

Step 4 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation. Accept all default values.

Step 5 When the installation program finishes, plug the USB system key into any USB port on the Cisco Unity server.


Do the following procedure only if you installed Windows 2000 with the USB key already attached.

To remove the default USB driver


Step 1 On the Windows Start menu, click Settings > Control Panel > System.

Step 2 In the System Properties dialog box, click the Hardware tab.

Step 3 Click Device Manager.

Step 4 In the Device Manager dialog box, expand Other Devices.

Step 4 Restart the server.


Updating the Active Directory Schema (Exchange 2000 only)

With Exchange 2000, several changes need to be made to the Active Directory schema for Cisco Unity to work properly. To see the changes that the schema update program makes, browse to the directory Schema\LdifScripts on Cisco Unity Disc 1, and view the file Avdirmonex2k.ldf.

In addition, if you plan to use either the Voice Gateway or the AMIS Gateway with Exchange 2000, update the schema with changes for the Internet Voice Connector. The gateways provided by the Internet Voice Connector are distinct:

Voice Gateway

Allows two Cisco Unity systems to send and receive SMTP mail while preserving the Cisco Unity-specific attributes in the messages. These attributes allow Cisco Unity to identify messages as voice messages.

AMIS Gateway

Allows Cisco Unity to send and receive voice messages from other voice messaging systems that support the AMIS analog protocol.


To see the changes that the schema update program makes for the Internet Voice Connector, browse to the directory Schema\LdifScripts on Cisco Unity Disc 1, and view the file Voicegateway.ldf. For installation information on the Internet Voice Connector, refer to the "Digital Networking" chapter of the Cisco Unity System Administration Guide.

Changes to the Active Directory schema may take 15 minutes or more to replicate throughout the forest. These changes must finish replicating before you can install Cisco Unity. To determine whether changes have replicated and to force replication if necessary, use Replication Monitor, which is available if you install Support Tools from the Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 compact disc.

To update the schema, use either the following procedure or any tool that applies LDIF scripts (for example, the Microsoft Ldifde utility).

To update the Active Directory schema


Step 1 On the computer that has the schema master role (the Cisco Unity server, unless you joined an existing domain), log on to Windows as a user who is a member of the Schema Admins group.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Disc 1 in the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 Browse to the directory ADSchemaSetup, and double-click ADSchemaSetup.exe.

Step 4 In the Active Directory Schema Setup dialog box, check the Exchange 2000 Directory Monitor check box.

Step 5 If you plan to install the Internet Voice Connector, check the Exchange 2000 Internet Voice Connector check box.

Step 6 Click OK.

Step 7 When the schema update has finished, Ldif.log and Ldif.err files are saved to the desktop. View the contents of these files to confirm that the update completed successfully.


Installing Other Software

Symantec pcAnywhere (Required)

If you are installing a baseline system, Symantec pcAnywhere has already been installed.

You install pcAnywhere because Cisco TAC may use it to perform troubleshooting.

We recommend that you configure the pcAnywhere host software not to start automatically when you restart the server.

To install pcAnywhere and configure it so that it does not start automatically


Step 1 Follow the manufacturer instructions to install pcAnywhere.

Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Symantec pcAnywhere.

Step 3 In the pcAnywhere toolbar, click Hosts.

Step 4 Right-click the Modem icon or the host that is configured for a modem, and click Properties.

Step 5 In the pcAnywhere Host Properties dialog box, click the Settings tab.

Step 6 In the Host Startup section, uncheck the Launch with Windows check box.

Step 7 Click OK to close the pcAnywhere Host Properties dialog box.

Step 8 Exit pcAnywhere.

Caution Do not configure ScanMail to block WAV attachments, or voice messages will be stripped of their recordings.

VERITAS Backup Exec

Follow the manufacturer instructions to install VERITAS Backup Exec.

RSA SecurID

Refer to the "Enhanced Phone Security" chapter of the Cisco Unity System Administration Guide.

Adobe Acrobat Reader

The Cisco Unity documentation is available on the Cisco Unity Documentation compact disc in Adobe Acrobat (PDF) format (as well as in HTML format). To view the PDF files, you need Adobe Acrobat Reader, which you can install from the Cisco Unity Documentation compact disc.

Creating Organizational Units and a Mailbox Store (Exchange 2000 Only)

With Exchange 2000, users and distribution lists are created in a location that you specify. If you want users and distribution lists to be created in custom organizational units (OUs), create the OUs now. Both OUs need to be in the same domain, but they do not need to be in the same domain as the Cisco Unity server. For information on creating OUs, refer to Active Directory Users and Computers Help.

You also have the option to create a custom mailbox store as the default for subscribers that are added through the Cisco Unity Administrator or that are imported from a CSV file. For information on creating a custom mailbox store, refer to Exchange System Manager Help. (You configure Cisco Unity to use the mailbox store during Cisco Unity Setup.)

Choosing the Windows Account Used for Installing Cisco Unity Software

The local system account owns most Cisco Unity services. The Windows account with which you log on to install Cisco Unity software owns the rest. Changing the owner or the password for each of the Cisco Unity services is time consuming, so choose an account that you do not intend to change regularly. You may even want to create an account whose sole purpose is to be the owner of the Cisco Unity services.

The following table lists Cisco Unity services and the account that owns each.

Table 2-2 Cisco Unity Services and Owner Accounts

Service
Owner Account

AvCsMgr

Local system account

AvCsGateway

Local system account

AvDirChangeWriter

Local system account

AvDSAD (Exchange 2000 only)

The account used to install Cisco Unity

AVDSEx55 (Exchange 5.5 only)

The account used to install Cisco Unity

AvDSGlobalCatalog

The account used to install Cisco Unity

AvGaenSvr

Local system account

AvRepDirSvrSvc

Local system account

AvUMRSyncSvr

Local system account


Cisco Unity Setup creates a number of Cisco Unity objects in Active Directory and in Exchange, so the account with which you log on must have proper security access to perform the necessary operations.

You can use the same account to install Cisco Unity software as you use to install Exchange on the Cisco Unity server.

If you are installing more than one Cisco Unity server in a site, you can use the same account to install Cisco Unity software on all of them.

Active Directory Permissions Required

The account with which you log on to Windows must:

Be a member of the Local Administrators group on the Cisco Unity server.

Have read permissions at the domain container level in each domain, if the Cisco Unity server will service more than one domain. (If the account is a member of the Enterprise Admins group, this permission is unnecessary.)

User Rights Required

The account with which you log on to Windows to connect to the directory must:

Have the right to act as part of the operating system.

Have the right to log on as a service.

Exchange Permissions Required If the Organization Contains Only Exchange 2000 Servers

The account must have Full Exchange Administrator rights at the organization level. Delegate control by using the Exchange System Manager.

Add the Cisco Unity server to the Exchange Domain Servers group in the domain in which the Cisco Unity server is being installed. This gives the Cisco Unity server permission to act as an Exchange server.

If you installed Exchange on the Cisco Unity server and used the same account that you used to install Exchange on other servers, the account already has this permission.

Either add the account to the Enterprise Admins group or grant the permissions listed in the "Active Directory Permissions Required If the Account Is Not a Member of the Enterprise Admins Group" section. (Accounts used to administer Cisco Unity do not require this permission.)

Exchange Permissions Required If the Organization Contains Only Exchange 5.5 Servers

If you installed Exchange on the Cisco Unity server by using a different account than you used to install Exchange on other servers, confirm that the account has Services Account Administration permissions for the site and the configuration container into which Cisco Unity is being installed. Add the permissions from an Exchange server in the site that the Cisco Unity server will be joining.

During installation, the account can be a member of the Domain Admins group. Domain Admin rights ensure that Cisco Unity Setup can create default users during installation.

To accommodate customers' security concerns, this permission is no longer strictly required. Without the permission, you cannot use the Cisco Unity Administrator to create Cisco Unity subscribers and, therefore, Exchange mailboxes and Windows accounts. However, you can add Internet subscribers from Cisco Unity (which do not require Exchange mailboxes or Windows accounts), and you can still import subscribers from Exchange.


Caution If the account used to install Cisco Unity software is not a member of the Domain Admins group, you cannot create subscriber accounts by using the Cisco Unity Administrator. Instead, you must import subscribers from Exchange or from a comma-delimited text file.

Exchange Permissions Required If the Organization Contains Both Exchange 2000 and Exchange 5.5 Servers

The account must have Exchange 2000 Full Exchange Administrator rights at the organization level. Delegate control by using the Exchange System Manager.

If the Cisco Unity server will service more than one domain, the account must have read permissions at the domain container level in each domain.

If you want both Exchange 2000 and Exchange 5.5 users to be Cisco Unity subscribers:

Grant Services Account Administration permissions to the Exchange Domain Servers group for the Exchange 5.5 site and configuration containers.

If the Cisco Unity server is not already in the Exchange Domain Servers group in the domain in which the Cisco Unity server is installed, add it to that group. This gives the Cisco Unity server permission to act as an Exchange server.

Either add the account to the Enterprise Admins group or add the rights listed in the "Active Directory Permissions Required If the Account Is Not a Member of the Enterprise Admins Group" section. (Accounts used to administer Cisco Unity do not require this permission.)

Active Directory Permissions Required If the Account Is Not a Member of the Enterprise Admins Group

If you prefer that the account used to connect to the directory have the minimum permissions possible (instead of being a member of the Enterprise Admins group), grant the account the following permissions:

In the domain container that contains the Cisco Unity server, do one of the following:

Grant the account permission to create Container objects. Use ADSI Edit.

Using another account, at the root of the domain, create a container named Unity. Within the Unity container, create a container named Locations. Use ADSI Edit.

If you created Unity and Locations containers manually, in the Locations container, grant the account permissions to create, read, and write the object CiscoECSBUUMLocation. (If this object does not exist, you have not updated the Active Directory schema.) Use Active Directory Users and Computers.

By default, Cisco Unity subscribers and distribution groups (also known as distribution lists) are created in the Active Directory Users container. If you want to use this folder for subscribers and distribution lists, grant the account permissions to create, read, and write the User and Group objects in that container. Use Active Directory Users and Computers.

If you created custom organizational units or you want to choose another location for subscribers, distribution lists, or both, grant the account the same permissions in the custom organizational units.

Installing Cisco Unity Software

There are two parts to installing Cisco Unity: Running the Cisco Unity Setup program, and connecting Cisco Unity to the directory (when you run the Configuration Setup program).

For the Unified Messaging in an Existing Exchange Site configuration:

We recommend that you choose one of the less busy Exchange servers in the site. All voice messages pass through the server you choose here on their way to user mailboxes.

If Exchange is installed on the Cisco Unity server to support Exchange clusters, choose the Cisco Unity server.

Step 9 Click Next.

Step 10 Enter the domain in which you want Cisco Unity to create users and distribution lists.

Step 11 If you created custom organizational units for users or distribution lists, click the corresponding Modify button to specify them here.

Step 12 Click Next.

Step 13 Enter the password for the current account.

Step 14 Click Next.

Step 15 When configuration is complete, click Finish.


If Cisco Unity is servicing mailboxes that reside on Exchange 2000 clusters, you need to change an account password and several Cisco Unity services.

To change the account used by Cisco Unity services (Exchange 2000 clusters only)


Step 1 In Active Directory Users and Computers, change the password on the Unity_<servername> account.

Step 2 In Active Directory Users and Computers, add the Unity_<servername> account to the Exchange Domain Servers group.

Step 3 In Active Directory Users and Computers, add the Unity_<servername> account to the Local Administrators group.

Step 4 In Services, change the following services to log on by using the Unity_<servername> account:

AvCsGateway

AvCsMgr

AvGaenSvr

AvRepDirSvrSvc

AvUMRSyncSvr

Step 5 Restart the Cisco Unity server.


Exchange 5.5

To connect Cisco Unity with the directory


Step 1 Start the Cisco Unity server.

Step 2 Confirm that Exchange is running on the server where you want to create new mailboxes. If Exchange is not running, connecting to the directory will fail.

Step 3 Log on to Windows by using an account that has the necessary rights and permissions. See the "Choosing the Windows Account Used for Installing Cisco Unity Software" section.

Step 4 On the Windows desktop, double-click Configuration Setup.

Step 5 On the Welcome screen, click Next.

Configuring a System That Includes Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000 Servers (Selected Systems Only)

You can skip this section if:

The Active Directory Connector uses a two-way connection agreement between Exchange 5.5 and Windows 2000.

You are using only Exchange 5.5 or only Exchange 2000.

If messages for Cisco Unity subscribers are stored on both Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000 servers, and if the Active Directory Connector uses a one-way connection agreement from Exchange 5.5 to Windows 2000, you need to create a new account in Exchange 5.5, change the account's permissions, and change selected Cisco Unity services to log on with this account. Otherwise, the Cisco Unity subscribers whose messages are stored in Exchange 5.5 will hear the fail-safe conversation when they try to listen to messages over the phone.

To configure a system that includes Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000 servers


Step 1 Using Exchange 5.5 Administrator, create a mailbox in the Exchange 5.5 directory. You do not need to associate the mailbox with a Windows NT account or Active Directory account. Do not use the following names:

Unity_<servername>

Unity Messaging System - <servername>

If there is more than one Cisco Unity server in the Exchange site, create one Exchange 5.5 mailbox for each Cisco Unity server.

The Active Directory Connector replicates the mailbox to Active Directory as a disabled account.

Step 2 After the mailbox replicates to Active Directory, enable the account in Active Directory Users and Computers, change the password, and move it to the Exchange 2000 server that you selected in Step 8 of the "To connect Cisco Unity with the directory" section.

Step 3 Using Active Directory Users and Computers, add the account to the Exchange Domain Servers group.

Step 4 Using Exchange 5.5 Administrator, grant Services Account Administration permissions to the account at the site and configuration levels.

Step 5 Add the account to the Administrators group on the Cisco Unity server.

Step 6 In the Services MMC, change the following Cisco Unity services so they log on by using the account:

AvCsGateway

AvCsMgr

AvGaenSvr

AvUMRSynchSvr

Step 7 Start Regedit.


Caution Changing the wrong registry key or entering an incorrect value can cause the server to malfunction. Before you edit the registry, confirm that you know how to restore it if a problem occurs. Note that a typical backup of the Cisco Unity server does not back up the registry. Refer to the "Restoring the Registry" Help topic in Regedit.exe or the "Restoring a Registry Key" Help topic in Regedt32.exe for additional information. If you have any questions about changing registry key settings, contact Cisco TAC.

Step 8 If you do not have a current backup of the registry, click Registry > Export Registry File, and save the registry settings to a file.

Step 9 Modify the values of the following keys in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Active Voice\MALEx\1.0:

DisplayName

Must be the exact display name of the account that was replicated to Active Directory.

ServerName

Must be the name of the Exchange 2000 server on which the mailbox resides.

MailboxDn

Must be the exact legachExchangeDn (Exchange 5.5 style distinguished name) of the mailbox, for example, /O=<Org>/OU=<Site>/CN=Recipients/CN=<Alias>.


Step 10 Restart the Cisco Unity server.


Reinstalling Windows 2000 Service Pack 2

To reinstall Windows 2000 Service Pack 2


Step 1 Log on to Windows.

Step 2 Insert Cisco Unity Operating System 2000 Disc 2, Service Pack 2 in the CD-ROM drive.

Step 3 Browse to the root directory, and run W2ksp2.exe.

Step 4 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.
