About Cisco Unified CCE (and Unified CCE Engineering Specials)


This Engineering Special provides a solution for defect CSCvm19592. This ES is intended to be installed on both sides of Router that is running on ICM 10.5(3).  No other components are affected. Since this is a cumulative patch for the Router component, the fix for the following defects are also included in this patch - CSCve03977, CSCuu75122, CSCvg68770

Unified CCE Compatibility and Support Specifications


Unified CCE Version Support

·       ICM 10.5(3)

Unified CCE Component Support

This Engineering Special is intended to be installed on both sides of the Router or Rogger node (a virtual machine that hosts both the Router and the Logger components).

This section lists the Unified CCE components on which you can and cannot install this engineering special.

Supported Unified CCE Components

You can install Unified CCE 10.5(3) ES42 on these Unified CCE components:

Unsupported Unified CCE Components

Do not install this engineering special on machines other than the one that host the “Router” component.

Unified CCE Engineering Special Installation Planning


Since this ES is targeted for the Router node, it is recommended to install and uninstall the patch during a maintenance window, when incoming call traffic is expected to be low.

Installing Unified CCE 10.5(3) ES42


·       Stop the Router service, using Unified CCE Service Control.

·       Launch the installer provided for ES42 and follow the on-screen instructions

·       Start the Router service, using Unified CCE Service Control.

Please note: On a duplexed setup, install the ES first on one side of the router (example Side A) and start it only after shutting down the other side (Side B) where ES has to be installed next. After installing the ES on the second side, the router process on that side can be started without shutting down the first side. This will get the system back to duplex mode.

Uninstall Directions for Unified CCE 10.5(3) ES42


  1. Stop the Router service, using Unified CCE Service Control
  2. To uninstall this patch, go to Control Panel.
  3. Select "Add or Remove Programs".
  4. Find the installed patch in the list and select "Remove".

Note: Remove patches in the reverse order of their installation. For example, if you installed patches 3, then 5, then 10 for a product, you must uninstall patches 10, 5, and 3, in that order, to remove the patches from that product.

Please note: On a duplexed setup, remove the ES first on one side of the router (example Side A) and start it only after shutting down the other side (Side B) where ES has to be removed next. After uninstalling the ES on the second side, the router process on that side can be started without shutting down the first side. This will get the system back to duplex mode.

Detailed list of Resolved Caveats in This Engineering Special

Caveats are ordered by severity then defect number.


Defect Number: CSCve03977

Component: router

Severity: 2

Headline: ICM Router is populating non-zero value from previous interval during the mid-night data reset

Symptom: "RouterAnsInterval", "RouterMaxCallsQueued" and "RouterMaxCallWaitTime" in the Skill Group Interval table have incorect values, causing reports based on those field to be incorrect.

Conditions: When performing data reset at mid-night.


Workaround:
None

Further Problem Description:
Likely to show false data at midnight reset on DST. Defect CSCuu75122 reopened, as part of that DST changes will be handled.


Defect Number: CSCvm19592

Component: router

Severity: 2

Headline: Router out of memory due to translation routing with multi instance cce

Symptom: Router process memory grows beyond expected size over multiple weeks, and eventually crashes when it reaches the threshold of 2GB, until such time that both routers exit at the same time which will clear the stale memory.

Conditions:
Occurs in a multi-instance deployment where instances are translation routing calls between each other. The translation route needs to be executed via translation route to VRU to a type 10 or type 2 VRU.

Workaround:
Once a month, bring both router processes down at the same time during a maintenance window. One option is to run the exit_router command from the Rttest tool which will restart processes on Side A and Side B at the same time.

Further Problem Description:
None


Defect Number: CSCuu75122

Component: router

Severity: 3

Headline: DST change causes loss of CallType and Skill Group Historical Data for last hour of the day

Symptom: With day light changes, for the last hour of the day, records for Call Type and Skill Group Historical (15 minute or 30 minutes) weren't available.

Conditions:
Occurs only during the last hour of the day when the day light time changes and when CCE Call Type and Skill Group Historical reports are used.

Workaround:
None

Further Problem Description:
None


Defect Number: CSCvg68770

Component: router

Severity: 3

Headline: 23:30 interval data missing from CallTypeHalfHour and CallTypeSkillGroupHalfHour

Symptom: 23:30 interval data missing in CallTypeHalfHour and CallTypeSkillGroup

Conditions:
Reporting interval being set to 30 min from "System Information" in Configuration Manager and 10.5(3) ES23 (having fix for CSCuu75122) is installed.

Workaround:
Uninstall the ES, if the fix for CSCuu75122 is part of ES

Further Problem Description:
None
