[cisco-voip] Setting up a WS-SVC-CMM for use with CCM 4.1

[Voll, Scott]

When we first got it, it had like 12.2 code or something.  When I
upgraded the IOS to the 12.3 code it also upgraded Firmware on the
Cards.  Something when wrong and it killed the PRI card.  RMA was two or
three days... (but that's more of a RMA war story).

 

If you loose the IOS and end up in Rommon you can FTP off the Sup to get
it up and running.  There is a Console port on the top of the blade so
if something were to go wrong you can get on it.

 

First time I upgraded to the 12.4 code it had a Multicast issue so I had
to down grade to 12.3 so MoH worked.  That has since been fixed.

 

I also had to do some testing for a Tac Case which I used a developers
release of 12.4 that didn't do good things either.  Had to down grade to
12.3 at 10am on a business day. 

 

So, with all that said 12.4 mainline should be good, But before I'm
willing to go that direction, I want to see others using it.

 

The CMM has come a long way.

PS.  Let me know how it goes.

No, we actually bought two ACT daughtercards.

 

The main thing I am concerned with is the fact that the card runs its'
own copy of IOS.....which can make switch recovery complicated if the
CMM comes up in ROMMON.  War stories would be nice!

 

Cheers,

Eric

	Upgrade the CMM.  To the latest xy code.  Something like
12.3.8xy6 or later.  It's been very stable for us.

	 

	Sounds like TAC developers would like me to move to 12.4 but
it's hard to upgrade when it's working.

	PS.  Anything else you need?  Did you really buy two ACT cards,
or are you referring to the two DSP on the single ACT card?

	We just bought a Cisco Media Module and wanted to know if anyone
on the list has done this before...and what the "gotchas" are.  The CMM
has two of the ACT dsp cards that we plan on using for Meet-Me
conferences.  The 6509 switch is running CatOS 8.4 and the CMM blade is
running IOS 12.3.8.
