After importing the data, and phase 1 completes, the 8.5.1 server logs you off the setup and sends you to appadmin where you are supposed to login and monitor the remainder of the restore using a pre-upgrade username and password; however, you cannot login any more using any appadmin account.<div>
<br></div><div>in fact, it appears all of the accounts disappear... the clean install appadmin account and the old appadmin accounts from the backup:</div><div><br></div><div><div>admin:show uccx appadmin administrators </div>
<div> Command successful.</div><div>admin:</div><div><br></div></div><div>It also says to not reboot until the restore is complete... we are going on 10 hours now, with no signs of life from this thing...</div><div><br></div>
<div><br></div><div>How can you monitor if the restore is working without being able to login to appadmin?</div><div><br></div><div>Creating new accounts via the command line also has no effect:</div><div><br></div><div><div>
</div><div>admin:set uccx appadmin administrator crsadmin</div><div>Successfully set user as AppAdmin Administrator</div><div> Command successful.</div><div>admin:</div></div><div><br></div>
<div>And all attempts to login to appadmin get this error:</div><div><br></div><div><div id="statMsg">AXL Authentication failed.Please try again. </div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I have confirmed the axl provider is the live CCM.</div>
<div><br></div><div><div>admin:show uccx provider ip axl </div><div> Cisco Unified Communications Manager IP is 10.10.33.8</div><div><br></div><div> Command successful.</div><div>admin:</div></div><div><br></div><div>What else can I check before calling TAC?</div>
