[cisco-voip] SQL database dips on v7 (how to get list of phones that are not plugged in)

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

Thanks Jason. It doesn't look like there will be an easy way to do this. RIS seems to keep information only about phones that are plugged in. I'd have to some how export data from the phone query off all servers and compare this to data that is available for all phones.

Lelio, 

The registration status is not actually stored in the Informix database that I'm aware of. This means any SQL statement against the database wouldn't yield the information you're looking for. 

The information about registration status is stored in a shared memory space that the RIS process has access to. You can peek at the information RIS has from the command line for each server with the CLI command: 

show risdb query phone 

Where I think you need to go next is looking into another interface to access the registration info. It may be possible to query RIS programatically through the RIS web interface (just like RTMT does), or there may be something in the AXL API for this. I don't know the exact how-to for either of those though.

I'm hoping to get information from the tables using SQL and will read up on the database library in a while, however, just wondering about this one. From what I recall, IP address information is a different characteristic. Is this store in tables at all? If so/not, how can I access this information to produce a snapshot of phones that are not plugged in?
