<div dir="ltr">Thanks for the responses guys. <div><br></div><div>I'm trying to use the SysLog Viewer in RTMT, and it keeps telling me, "File does not exist". Any idea what might cause that?</div><div><br></div>
<div>If I do a Collect File action, which file(s) am I pulling down exactly?</div><div><br></div><div>For your questions, the configuration when I inherited the system was that all phones had the VPN profile assigned, but all except for a handful are on the local network, and should never need to look for the VPN server (which doesn't resolve while on-site). I guess the thought was that users could take them home if they ever needed to, but I'd prefer to know when they want to do that, so I think I'll create a new Common Phone Profile and remove that option on the HQ phones.</div>
<div><br></div><div>TFTP is turned on for the Publisher, and subscribers 2 (the one the phones failed to register to), and 4 (which is on the DR side). That is odd, because I thought it was only supposed to run on the publisher, or on a dedicated node. As for Option 150, I'll get back to you on that. We've got Dell switches in most of our environment, and we had to co-exist with the legacy system for a long time, so I think we've got some funky configs there. Our Call Center has the same infrastructure, though, and they came back up normally. They register to Subscriber 1.</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hey folks,<div><br></div><div>In short, how can I troubleshoot IP phones failing to register to CallManager over a day after the issue was resolved? Background below. CallManager version is 8.6.</div>
<div>
<br></div><div>I just started following this mailing list last week. I've been learning UCM administration for about a year, and I inherited a 5-node cluster to worry about around six months ago. I'm doing okay with the day-to-day stuff, but there's still a lot of maintenance and administration stuff that really need to learn more about.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Our cluster runs on two ESX clusters (1 publisher and 2 subs on 1; 2 subs on the other for DR), and our engineer asked for my help to bring down the side with the publisher so he could upgrade ESX from 4.1 to 5.0.</div>
<div><br></div><div>ICM and CVP (also my responsibility...whoo...) were on the same cluster, and I was mainly worried about those coming back up, so I didn't pay enough attention to the CM nodes to make sure the phones re-registered. Luckily, the call center, which runs off the first subscriber came up fine.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I didn't find out until Sunday afternoon that all except for a handful of phones at HQ failed to register. A developer who came in to work on the weekend noticed that the phones were displaying, "VPN Authentication Failed". Sure enough, I could see the phones' IP addresses from the publisher, but they were listed as Unregistered. I checked the status messages on one of the phones' web interfaces, and it reported, "All Concentrators Failed." This occurred on all except 2 of about 200 on-site phones. The phones that DO connect via VPN all appeared to be registered by the time I took a look.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I went in to the office on Sunday and manually reset all the phones (**#**) in order to make sure there was no service disruption on Monday morning, but now my manager is asking me to find the root cause as-to why this issue occurred, and I'm not sure where to start. The logs on the individual phones don't appear to go back far enough, and I'm not versed enough with RTMT to know where to look.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Do you guys know where I can look to try and find out what happened here? I suspect that it was the Auto-Network Detect feature in the VPN profile that got me. I turned it off in one of my troubleshooting steps, but I'd like to be able to say for sure when I present it to the company.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What sucks is that the CM groups are configured so that Subscriber 1 on the first cluster should failover to Sub 3 on the second, and Sub 2 (the one that should have registered the HQ phones) should have failed over to Sub 4, also on the second cluster. I do not know why the phones would have failed to register in the first place.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div>Daniel</div></div>
