Monitoring and Recording Service Shows as Inactive

With Cisco Unified Contact Center Express 7.x, supervisors are able to monitor agents, but cannot record. Both CAD and Cisco Secure Desktop (CSD) show in partial service. Also, the Monitoring and recording service shows as inactive.

Solution

Perform these steps in order to resolve this issue:

  1. Go to AppAdmin > Control Center and start the Monitoring and recording service.

  2. Make sure that the TCP port 59005 is opened on the Cisco Desktop Recording Server.

  3. If the UCCX server that runs the VoIP monitor has two NICs installed, the NIC for UCCX traffic must be on the top of the TCP/IP bind order and the NIC for VoIP monitor traffic must be bound to TCP/IP behind the other NIC. If the NIC binding order is not correct, perform the steps mentioned in Silent Monitoring/Recording Issues Using Cisco Agent Desktop Supervisor Desktop.

  4. From the UCCX server, go to the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Spanlink\CAD\Recording and Playback Server\config and change the path to C:\Program Files\Cisco\Desktop_Audio.

  5. Restart these services:

    • Cisco Desktop VoIP Monitor

    • Cisco Desktop Recording

    • Cisco Desktop Recording and Statistics
