[cisco-voip] Bulk Admin and Jabber

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I’m good with that. We did something similar with Webex where we exported, then I highlighted the columns that needed data and then we exported to CSV and imported. I’m thinking the same thing will happen. The team was OK with that.

Just thinking though… there are a few steps we do before actually programming the devices, i.e. updating the user’s information to include the correct details.

I’m guessing we still do that manually. We could try bulk importing, but sometimes, a few manual steps is easier.

Thanks.

I’m wondering, can I do an export first as a starting point?

Will try it.

Thx.

You can use Import/Export configuration with all details. No need for template and can import different types of devices at the same time.

We really need to start to minimize the amount of custom scripts / programming that we use, not increase it.

It’s a bit of a long story.

So I need to use the built-in tools.

:(

We might just stick with super copy if bulk admin doesn’t work out.

Why not roll your own build tool in Python?  You can ask questions here, as lots of us have Python and AXL experience, and then more people get to benefit from the collaboration.

Just think how cool it would be to build your very own Jarvis:

It’s been a while since I’ve used Bulk Admin Tool.

Wondering how it might help with our Jabber deployment.

I’m thinking, since our requests will come in one at a time, the best approach would be to create a BAT file that has a line for each device type. We’ve decided to load all types so users can switch devices out/in as they wish.

Can you bulk load _without_ using a template?

What have others done with respect to Jabber bulk loads?
