[cisco-voip] Unity UM - installed domain deleted

[Rasim Duric]

I think you'll need to start off with your latest platform DVD, join
domain, install Unity 5 or Unity 7 and then use Cobras to restore your
data. AFAIK Cobras is not TAC supported yet.

We are dealing with a Unity 4.1(1.0) UM server that has been orphaned from
its domain.  The original domain was completely removed and there is no
way to restore at this point.  The customer is completely without VM at
the present.  I was planning on using DiRT to complete a backup before I
started trying any type of migration, but Unity needs to be online for
this and it will not start.   The customer has also requested an upgrade
of Unity.

 

Since DiRT did not work, I used Cobras to perform an export and it seems
to have gathered all the names, prompts, and directory handlers.  Based on
the information above, should I just install with the latest plat DVD,
join their new domain, install Unity 5.0(1) UM and attempt the re-import
with the built in mapping tool, to take into an account any alias changes,
that comes with Cobras?

 

Another thought I had was to extend the schema of their current domain,
join the current server to their new domain, re-establish permissions,
verify integration, and then upgrade to Unity 5.0(1).

 

Thanks!
