Task List for Migrating from Cisco Unity with Domino to Cisco Unity Connection

The Cisco Unity utilities used for exporting and importing data and voice messages are not supported when IBM Lotus Domino is the message store. As a result, when you migrate from a Cisco Unity with Domino system, you must create Connection users with one of the methods documented in the Cisco Unity Connection User Moves, Adds, and Changes Guide. In addition, you cannot transfer Cisco Unity voice messages to Connection.

Note that if you do not have any Connection users who will use Microsoft Exchange for e-mail, calendaring, or contacts, skip any Exchange-specific tasks.

Do the following tasks in the order listed.

1. Verify the following requirements:

a. Requirements for the Cisco Unity Connection system and for the migration. See the "Verifying System Requirements" section.

Verifying System Requirements

Refer to Cisco Unity Connection System Requirements, and Supported Hardware and Software at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/prod_installation_guides_list.html to confirm that the hardware and software that you intend to use for the Cisco Unity Connection system is supported.

Some hardware, software, and configurations that are supported with Cisco Unity are not supported with Cisco Unity Connection. In particular, note the following:

Some servers that were supported for Cisco Unity 4.0(5) and later are not supported with Cisco Unity Connection. If the Cisco Unity server is not supported with Connection, Cisco Unity Connection Setup will fail.

Windows Server 2003 must be installed by using the Cisco Platform Configuration disc. If you install Windows Server 2003 by using any other method, Cisco Unity Connection Setup will fail.

Phone system integrations that require voice cards are not supported.

Obtaining Cisco Unity Connection License Files

For the migration to Cisco Unity Connection, you obtain license files by sending an e-mail request. Cisco e-mails the license files. The e-mail from Cisco contains instructions on how to save and store the files. Later in the migration process, the Cisco Unity Connection Reconfiguration and Upgrade Guide refers you to the Cisco Unity Connection Installation Guide, which provides instructions on installing the license files.

The following information is required during registration:

The MAC address (physical address) for the network interface card (NIC) in the Cisco Unity server.

The MAC address for the NIC in the Cisco Unity Connection server.

The product authorization key (PAK), which appears on the back of the Cisco Unity Connection Application Software Media kit.

This section contains two procedures. Do them in the order listed.

To Get the MAC Address of the Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Connection Servers


Step 1 On the Cisco Unity server, on the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

Step 2 In the Command Prompt window, enter ipconfig /all, and press Enter.

Step 3 Write down the value of Physical Address, excluding the hyphens, or save it to a file that you can access during online registration. (For example, if the physical address is 00-A1-B2-C3-D4-E5, record 00A1B2C3D4E5.)

If the server contains more than one NIC, one value will appear for each NIC. Write down the value for the first NIC. This is the MAC address that will be assigned to both NICs when you configure fault tolerance.

Step 4 Close the Command Prompt window.

Step 5 If you are using a different server for the Cisco Unity Connection server, repeat Step 1 through Step 4 on the Cisco Unity Connection server.


To Register and Obtain the License Files


Step 1 Send an e-mail requesting a license file for the migration to:

connectionmigration@external.cisco.com

Include the following information:

The MAC address for the NIC in the Cisco Unity server.

The MAC address for the NIC in the Cisco Unity Connection server.

The PAK from the Cisco Unity Connection Application Software Media kit.

Step 2 When you receive a reply from licensing@cisco.com, follow the instructions in the e-mail.

If there are questions on your request or if we need to confirm that you accept that you will lose features, we will send a query before we send the license files.

If the license files are lost, it can take up to one business day to get another copy.


If you do not get the licensing files within a day or if you need another copy of the licensing file, forward to licensing@cisco.com the e-mail that you sent to connectionmigration@external.cisco.com.


Note Cisco Unity Connection software comes with a default license file that has a minimal number of settings. The license file allows installation of a Cisco Unity Connection demonstration system. For information and instructions on installing a demonstration system, refer to the "Cisco Unity Connection Demonstration System" appendix of the Cisco Unity Connection Installation Guide at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/prod_installation_guides_list.html.


Duration of the Migration (With Exchange Only)


Note If you are migrating a Cisco Unity with Domino system to Cisco Unity Connection, skip this section.


If you plan to export data and messages from Cisco Unity and import them into Cisco Unity Connection, note the following considerations:

Exporting data takes only a few minutes.

Messages are exported at the rate of about 240 per minute.

Data is imported at the rate of about 40 users per minute.

Messages are imported at the rate of about 150 per minute.

The duration of these tasks will vary depending on the following criteria:

The speed of the processor in the Cisco Unity server.

The amount of RAM in the Cisco Unity server.

The amount of call traffic when you are exporting data.

When Cisco Unity subscriber mailboxes are homed on a separate Exchange server and you are exporting voice messages, the speed of the network.

Gathering Telephony Settings from the Cisco Unity System


Note If you are not integrating Cisco Unity Connection with the same phone system with which Cisco Unity is integrated, skip this section.


To integrate Cisco Unity Connection with the same phone system with which Cisco Unity is integrated, you need telephony settings from Cisco Unity to facilitate creating the integration. Do the following procedure to install the latest version of the Gather Unity System Info utility, and to display and print the telephony settings.

To Gather Telephony Settings from the Cisco Unity System


Step 1 Install the Gather Unity System Info utility that you downloaded from the Cisco Unity Tools website:

a. Run Gather Unity System Info.msi.

b. Follow the on-screen prompts.

Step 2 On the Cisco Unity server, double-click the Cisco Unity Tools Depot icon on the Windows desktop.

Step 3 In the left pane, expand Reporting Tools.

Step 4 Double-click Gather Unity System Info.

Step 5 In the Gather Unity System Info window, select all text.

Step 6 Press Ctrl-C to copy the text to the Windows clipboard.

Step 7 Open Notepad.

Step 8 Press Ctrl-V to paste the text from the Windows clipboard into Notepad.

Step 9 Print the text or save it in a file that you can access while you are creating a phone system integration with Cisco Unity Connection.

Step 10 Exit Notepad.

Step 11 Exit the Gather Unity System Info utility.


Backing Up Cisco Unity Data and Messages

If you are reusing the Cisco Unity server as the Cisco Unity Connection server, back up Cisco Unity data by using the Cisco Unity Disaster Recovery Backup tool in case you need to revert to Cisco Unity 4.0(5).

If Cisco Unity voice messages are stored in an Exchange mailbox store on the Cisco Unity server, back up Exchange messages by using an Exchange-aware backup utility.


Caution We recommend against using the Cisco Unity Disaster Recovery Backup tool to back up voice messages. The Disaster Recovery Backup tool uses ExMerge to back up Exchange messages, and an ExMerge backup and restore of the message database may be much larger than the message database itself because ExMerge backs up each Exchange mailbox separately. If you use ExMerge and then need to restore Exchange messages, there may not be enough room on the hard disk to restore all mailboxes.

Exporting Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages from Cisco Unity (With Exchange Only)


Note If you are migrating a Cisco Unity with Domino system to Cisco Unity Connection, skip this section.


Do the procedures in the following five sections in the order listed:

Stopping Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services

Determining the Account That the AvCsMgr Service Logs On As

Installing the Unity to Connection Migration Export Tool on the Cisco Unity Server

Exporting Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages

Restarting Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services

Stopping Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services


Note If the system is not using antivirus software or Cisco Security Agent for Cisco Unity, skip this section.


You stop virus-scanning and Cisco Security Agent services on the server so that they do not slow down the installation of software or cause the installations to fail, and so they do not interfere with exporting Cisco Unity data.


Caution Do not stop the Cisco Security Agent service by using the net stop command or the Cisco Security Agent icon in the task bar. These methods are not supported.

To Stop Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services


Step 1 Refer to the antivirus software documentation to determine the names of the virus-scanning services.

Step 2 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.

Step 3 For each virus-scanning service and the Cisco Security Agent service, right-click the name of each service, and click Stop.

Step 4 When all services have stopped, close the Services MMC.


Determining the Account That the AvCsMgr Service Logs On As

To install and run the Unity to Connection Migration Export tool, you must log on to Windows by using the account that the Cisco Unity AvCsMgr service logs on as. Do the following procedure to determine that account.

To Determine the Account That the AvCsMgr Service Logs On As


Step 1 On the Cisco Unity server, on the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.

Step 2 In the right pane, double-click AvCsMgr.

Step 3 Click the Log On tab.

Step 4 Write down the name of the account that the service logs on as.

Step 5 Click Cancel.

Step 6 Close the Services MMC.

Step 7 Log out of Windows.


Installing the Unity to Connection Migration Export Tool on the Cisco Unity Server

In this section, you install the Unity to Connection Migration Export tool that you downloaded from the Cisco Unity Tools website in the "Task List for Migrating from Cisco Unity with Exchange to Cisco Unity Connection" section.

To Install the Unity to Connection Migration Export Tool on the Cisco Unity Connection Server


Step 1 Log on to the Cisco Unity server by using the account that you identified in the "To Determine the Account That the AvCsMgr Service Logs On As" procedure.

Step 2 Run CUMigrationExport.msi.

Step 3 Follow the on-screen prompts.


Exporting Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages

We recommend that you run the Unity to Connection Migration Export tool during nonbusiness hours so the report runs faster and so it does not interfere with Cisco Unity performance.

To Export Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages


Step 1 Browse to the directory CUC Migration Export.

Step 2 Run UnityToConnectionMigrationExport.exe.

For information on exporting data and voice messages, including which data can be exported, refer to the Help file UnityToConnectionMigrationExport.htm.


Restarting Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services


Note If the system is not using antivirus software or Cisco Security Agent for Cisco Unity, or if you are reusing the Cisco Unity server as the Cisco Unity Connection server and will be installing Cisco Unity Connection immediately, skip this section.


To Restart Virus-Scanning and Cisco Security Agent Services


Step 1 On the Windows Start menu, click Programs > Administrative Tools > Services.

Step 2 For each virus-scanning service and the Cisco Security Agent service, right-click the name of each service, and click Start.

Step 3 When the services have restarted, close the Services MMC.


Removing Cisco Unity (With Exchange Only)

If Cisco Unity is installed in a Unified Messaging configuration, some Cisco Unity-specific data is stored in the Active Directory database. Removing Cisco Unity removes this data from Active Directory.

To Remove Cisco Unity


Step 1 On the Cisco Unity server, browse to the directory CommServer\Utilities\UninstallUnity3xand4x.

Step 2 Remove Cisco Unity by following the instructions in the Help file UninstallUnity3xand4x.htm.


Importing Data and Messages into Cisco Unity Connection (With Exchange Only)


Note If you are migrating a Cisco Unity with Domino system to Cisco Unity Connection, skip this section.


Do the procedures in the following three sections in the order listed:

Installing the Unity to Connection Migration Import Tool on the Cisco Unity Connection Server

Updating the Export File to Accommodate Limited Licenses for User Features

Importing Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages into Cisco Unity Connection

Installing the Unity to Connection Migration Import Tool on the Cisco Unity Connection Server

In this section you install the Unity to Connection Migration Import tool that you downloaded from the Cisco Unity Tools website in the "Task List for Migrating from Cisco Unity with Exchange to Cisco Unity Connection" section.

To Install the Unity to Connection Migration Import Tool on the Cisco Unity Connection Server


Step 1 Log on to the Cisco Unity Connection server.

Step 2 Run CUMigrationImport.msi.

Step 3 Follow the on-screen prompts.


Updating the Export File to Accommodate Limited Licenses for User Features


Note When you import user data, you are prompted to choose the template with which you want users to be created. If the Cisco Unity Connection license includes enough licenses for all users to have the same features (for example, 500 Advanced User licenses when you have 500 users), and if you want to create all users with one template (and the associated class of service), skip this section.


When the Cisco Unity Connection license includes a limited number of licenses for some user features (for example, 50 Advanced User licenses when you have 500 users), you must use different templates and classes of service for the users who should have access to these features and for the users who should not.

If you use one template and class of service for all users and the features are enabled, then importing users will fail after the last license is used. In the example of 50 Advanced User licenses for 500 users, the import will fail while importing the 51st user.

If you use one template and class of service for all users and the features are disabled, then importing users will succeed, but no one will have access to the features for which you have limited licenses. You will then have to manually change the settings for the users who will use those features.

To use two or more templates, you can update the CSV file that was created when you did the procedures in the "Exporting Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages from Cisco Unity (With Exchange Only)" section. For each user, you add the name of the template with which you want each user to be created. For information on editing the CSV file, see the Help for the Bulk Administration Manager tool, which is available in the Administration Tools section of Tools Depot.

Importing Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages into Cisco Unity Connection

To Import Cisco Unity Subscriber Data and Voice Messages into Cisco Unity Connection


Step 1 On the drive where Cisco Unity Connection is installed, browse to the Connection\Utilities\CUMigrationImport directory.

Step 2 Run UnityToConnectionMigrationImport.exe. For information on using the import utility, refer to the Help file UnityToConnectionMigrationImport.htm.

If you encounter any errors during the import, review the Migration Tool for Going from Cisco Unity to Connection training video at http://ciscounitytools.com/TOI_CUC1.1.htm. (Note that although the page is labeled "Connection 1.1 Training Videos," the video applies to Connection 1.x.)


Reassigning Cisco Personal Assistant Phones to Cisco Unity Connection


Caution If the phones used by Cisco Personal Assistant are not reassigned to Cisco Unity Connection, calls may be routed to the wrong extension.

You can use the Bulk Administration Tool to change the partition on phones in much less time than it takes to make the changes to each phone individually. For instructions on using the tool, refer to the Cisco Unified CallManager documentation, available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_installation_and_configuration_guides_list.html.

If you prefer to make the changes individually on each phone, do the following procedure.

To Individually Reassign Cisco Personal Assistant Phones to Cisco Unity Connection


Step 1 In Cisco Unified CallManager Administration, on the Device menu, click Phone.

Step 2 On the Find and List Phones page, click Find.

Step 3 Click the first phone that you want to assign to the Cisco Unity Connection partition.

Step 4 On the Directory Number Configuration page, in the Partition field, click the partition that gives the Cisco Unity Connection voice messaging ports access to the phone.

Step 5 In the Calling Search Space field, click the calling search space that provides access to the Cisco Unity Connection pilot number and to other extensions that the phone must be able to call.

Step 6 In the Voice Mail Profile field, select the voice mail profile that you created for Cisco Unity Connection when you programmed Cisco Unified CallManager for the integration.

Step 7 Click Update.

Step 8 Repeat Step 3 through Step 7 for all remaining phones that must be reassigned to Cisco Unity Connection.


Deleting Unassigned Directory Numbers

Even after you reassign Cisco Personal Assistant subscriber phones to Cisco Unity Connection, the directory numbers that were used by Cisco Personal Assistant remain in the Cisco Unified CallManager database. To prevent calls to these extensions from being misrouted, delete unassigned directory numbers in the Cisco Unified CallManager database.

To Delete Unassigned Directory Numbers


Step 1 In Cisco Unified CallManager Administration, on the Route Plan menu, click Route Plan Report.

Step 2 On the Route Plan Report page, in the first Search Options list, click Unassigned DN and click Find.

Step 3 Under Search Results, check the check box next to the directory numbers that were used by Cisco Personal Assistant and click Delete Selected.

Step 4 When prompted that the directory number will be deleted, click OK.
