About Cisco ICM (and ICM Engineering Specials)


This ES changes the SADLib Active Directory interface library to allow it to properly receive and process results from Active Directory searches that contain more than 2000 records.

Specifically, in the case of defect CSCvg33401, organizations that had Active Directory schemas with more than 1000 existing Organizational Units (OU) prior to the installation of Unified CCE, or that contained more than 1000 existing OUs and then deleted and recreated the Cisco_ICM root OU, experienced authentication failures in the WebSetup web application and malfunctions in the Domain Manager tool. This resulted in the failure to display an existing Cisco_ICM OU.

The new logic implemented in ES 4 remedies these issues by utilizing paging to allow SADLib to handle these large datasets without error.

As this patch upgrades a core library, stop all ICM services running on a server before proceeding with the patch installation. There should be no need for contact center downtime in systems that are running in a duplexed configuration. For instance, when you install this patch on a duplexed Router server, you can bring one side down, apply the ES, and then restart the Router service, after reboot, to resume duplexed operation. Once duplexed operation resumes, you can patch the other side of the Router. 

Install the ES during a scheduled maintenance window.
