[cisco-voip] More on phones displaying cm down during a call

Hi again,

Today I did a tcp dump on some of the affected switches from the site that is occaisionally getting cm down errors and found that the phone was sending out two skinny keepalives one to each of its primary and secondary call managers.  
Only the primary call manager sent an acknowledgement.  Can anyone confirm if this is normal?   I am now suspicious of a routing issue between the secondary cm and the site with the issues.  
Thanks Matt.

Mystery solution:

The user next to this one got tired of listening to the phone ring off
the hook.  He/she got up, walked to this phone and pressed the CFA and
Messages button and quickly went back to their seat.

I have a little mystery to solve...

A user came back to her desk to find her prime line had been forwarded
to voicemail. Obviously, that is very simple to do by pressing CFwdALL
then Messages. The user did not know about that method. She uses her
CCMUser page to forward other lines on her phone. She pulled that up and
verified that it was forwarded there as well, and unforwarded it at that
time. Shortly after that, she called me to see if we can figure out who
forwarded her phone.

I am confident that she did not accidentally forward it herself. My
question is, how could I see who did forward that extension? My thought
is that someone did it from her phone as a prank.

Any suggestions how I might determine at least whether it was done at
her phone or by a CCMUser page?

Thanks,

Robert

Broadvoice only supports G.711 so those of you that
are on a skimpy line and hoping to handle multiple
calls at once are out of luck.

We don't have traces running except when troubleshooting a specific
issue. I have bigger boxes now, but when I was on 7825's, call handling
suffered when all traces were running, so we typically have only run
traces only when needed for specific problems and then it was procedure
of trace on, make call, trace off, peruse trace files. Maybe I need to
update that policy?

Having tracing enabled certainly takes some system resources so if  
you find it impacts your server then disabling them makes sense.  At  
the same time with disabled traces comes the fact that post mortem on  
an event is quite often nothing more than an educated guess.

It's a trade-off and as long as the decision to turn off tracing is  
made with the negative affects in mind then there's nothing wrong  
with it.

Do you have video Surveillance? :)

no real way to find out who pressed the CFA button.  Finger print kit?

For CCMUser access, you can use IIS logs to see the IP address of 
devices accessing the the CCMUser pages and making update.
IIS logs:
c:\winnt\system32\logfiles\w3svc1\

I had a similar issue and it took a motherboard replacement to get it 
fixed.  The CPU speed at bootup was all over the place, which was tied 
into the BIOS saying that the FSB was wrong (it also varied from boot to 
boot).  TAC had me upgrade the BIOS, then downgrade the BIOS and it 
still wasn't consistent.  (And this was even before getting into the 
application - it was during POST that the BIOS was reporting a 6Ghz CPU.)

Here is an interesting one I have never ran across.
Today I get a call from a customer to let me know their VM is down.
This is Unified messaging with Unity 4.2 and Exchange 2k3.
I log in and see right away in the event viewer that Unity lost contact with
Exchange and to check the user accounts. I check the user accounts they are
all correct, then I check the mail server and that is also functioning. I
asked the customer if they rebooted exchange or unplugged it or something
along those line and they said no. After about 15 minutes everything starts
to work again. Eventually the customer tells me that he did some updates on
his main DC and rebooted that. His DC is also one of his DNS servers.
However he has 3 other DC's and another DNS server. 
The only thing that I can think of is that this DC is his GC server but he
couldn't verify that. Has anyone ran across this before?

Thanks,

Joel P

I've done several UCCX / IPCC Express implementations with the full CallManager, but just sold our first integrated with CME.
I'd enjoy hearing any war stories, warnings, undocumented features, etc. on integrating with CME.
