Fix your licensing problems first. If the License Unit Report web page is reporting negative license units you won't be able to add any phones. The problem is most likely that the licenses are not loaded, that the licenses loaded are incorrect, or that there is a bug in CallManager (in order of the probability I typically see)<br>
<br>If you go to the License File Upload page you should see at least three licenses<br><br>Phone Unit - The DLUs for devices<br>Node - One unit needed for each CCM server in the cluster<br>Software Feature - needed for CCM service to start<br>
<br>The files will have a long random looking name, and have XML data inside of them tell you how many units, and of what type those units are. You can just look at them with a naked eye to verify that you have enough node, phone unit licenses, and a single software feature license.<br>

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Hi
Goose,<br>
i am afraid of deleting the devices and reentering them. Why?<br>
Because all the device licenses in this CUCM were produced by upgrading the
previous 4.1 CCM.<br>
In that way, i have a -XXX device units.<br>
Were the system allow me to delete these devices and then reenter them?<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

request it won’t do what you want to do. If you want to change the external phone
number mask field on every line with an extension that begins with X to
234555XXXX or if you want to change the forward busy internal destination to
4500 on every phone in a certain calling search space then the UPDATE tool is
perfect. But if you want it to change the line text label to something
different on each line of 1000 phones (each line text label has a
different value), then the update tool won’t work. Your description of what you
are trying to achieve is vague – I assume that you want to have a spreadsheet
that has something like:</span></p>

ext. 1000 then it should overwrite the existing line text label with Joe Smith

way than either AXL or deleting and recreating the phones (or updating each

Goose,<br>
you mean what Dana suggested, is not possible? I will have to delete the phones
before reentering them?<br>
There is no way to update the phones?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

“massage” it back into a new BAT file (or files) with required changes, delete
the existing phones, and then re-import the phones from the new BAT file(s). IF
YOU DO THIS BE SURE YOU HAVE AUTO REGISTRATION TURNED OFF otherwise all your
phones will auto register after you do the delete and the new import will fail.
If you have a lot of phones to update, I’ll give you a word of advice from
experience… I would suggest you perform this on a small subset of phones first
before you “shotgun blast” a large number of phones.</span></p>

from their individual extensions to say the company’s main number you can do so
via the UPDATE LINES function (BULK ADMINISTRATION | PHONES |ADD/UPDATE LINES |
UPDATE LINES). You can perform a query that finds the extensions you wish to
change, then in the UPDATE LINES section check the box next to “external phone
number mask” and in the box enter the main phone number of the company. You
cannot, however, do a query that will parse a BAT file full of something like
“current caller id” and “new caller id” fields getting it to do a glorified
“search and replace”. I believe you would need to resort to AXL for something
like that.</span></p>
