Features
See the following sections for information about feature changes:
“Contact Center portfolio rebranding” on page 27
“Classic Client not available” on page 27
“Updated Contact Manager Administration features” on page 27
“Contact Center Server Utility” on page 28

“Unified reporting and administration” on page 32
“Improved agent interaction” on page 32
“Increase in number of contacts handled” on page 33
“Storage capacity” on page 33
These features are compatible with both Contact Center Manager Server and
Symposium Call Center Server Release 5.0.
The Server Utility maintains the look and feel of the Symposium Call Center
Server Classic Client and can be installed on a stand-alone Windows Server
2003, Windows 2000 Professional or Windows XP Professional PC, or it can
co-reside with the Contact Center Manager Server. In a network, the Contact
Center Server Utility can co-reside with the Network Control Center (NCC)
Server.
ATTENTION
NCC is not supported in a co-resident environment where
Contact Center Manager Administration is installed.
Reporting
Several reporting improvements are outlined:
Virtual network skillset calls offered and calls abandoned statistics are
added to the Skillset view. These statistics provide a consistent view of
activity across a virtual skillset.
New application historical statistics include TalkTime,
PostCallProcessingTime, WaitTime, DNOutExtTalkTime, and
DNOutIntTalkTime.
New skillset historical statistics include PostCallProcessingTime,
TalkTime, WaitTime, DNOutExtTalkTime, and DNOutIntTalkTime.
Application call answer delay and call abandoned delay pegging is more
accurate: statistics are calculated from the time the call enters the primary
application rather than from the Master script.
New AgentByApplication and AgentBySkillset statistics include
CallsOffered, RingTime, CallsReturnToQ, CallsTransferred,
CallsReturnToQDueTimeout, CallsConferenced, DNOutIntTalkTime, and
DNOutExtTalkTime.
Additional network consolidated views are available for the Network
Contact Center, similar to the network consolidated Skillset view. The new
views are Application, Agent Performance, AgentByApplication, and
AgentBySkillset.
Some of the statistics in existing historical reports have a new interpretation
due to the effect of multimedia pegging. For example, CallsAnswered
statistics are updated to include multimedia contacts and are reinterpreted
as Contacts Accepted. Similarly, TalkTime statistics are reinterpreted as
Processing Time. For details about the statistics affected and their new
definitions, see the Contact Center Historical Reporting and Data
Dictionary.
The labels of these statistics as they appear in the reports and the reporting
open interface database views are not changed for Release 6.0.
Configuration improvements
General configuration improvements to the Contact Center Manager
Administration Web-based application include:
show an agent’s personal dialed number (DN) in the title bar of the agent
map
configure the option to exclude logged off agents from the agent map
resize the agent map (upwards)
create threshold alerts (flashing text on the agent map) when a threshold is
exceeded
view threshold timers from billboard properties
place data element names on the y-axis of horizontal bar charts
show a linked display from the agent map
share graphical displays
configure collections with additional flexibility
add % Service Level formulas to graphical displays
change the default background color on billboards
add or delete agents in groups
change skillset assignments for a group of agents all at once
allow users with no assigned partition to create Real-Time Display filters
identify agents logged on within the Contact Center Management
component
apply supervisor changes to multiple agents at once
make skillset assignment changes to agents from skillset tabular Real-Time
Displays
make changes to an agent from agent tabular Real-Time Displays
simplify report writing package for customized reports
perform Default Queue Management
use features from the Classic Client application
Scripting improvements
The requirement for Terminal Services is replaced by the script manager as a
fully integrated Web-based solution. In addition to providing the functionality
previously available, the Web-based scripting manager also provides the ability
to:
search for unused script variables
search and replace within a script
highlight the line in the script with an error
rename inactive scripts
GIVE IVR
Contact Center Manager Server supports GIVE IVR script command with
Communication Server 2x00. GIVE IVR with VXML is supported for
Communication Server 1000/MCS 5100.
Storage capacity
The Contact Center Multimedia database supports 12 months of storage based
on an average contact size of 2 million contacts.

Overview
The License Manager controls the licensing of Contact Center. The License
Manager provides central control and administration of application licensing for
all of the elements of Contact Center Release 6.0.
You can choose Nodal Licensing mode for a single Contact Center installation
or Corporate Licensing mode for a network of Contact Center installations.
You can also maintain a secondary License Manager, which takes over the
licensing if the primary License Manager fails.
This chapter describes the Nodal and Corporate Licensing modes, how to
interpret your license file, how to install and configure the License Manager for
your contact center, and the licensing grace period.
Before installing Contact Center Manager Server, you must know whether you
are going to use Nodal or Corporate Licensing. You must also decide which
server would be least affected by the real-time operation of the License
Manager.
Nodal licensing—The options in the license file apply to a single
installation of Contact Center Manager Server, Contact Center Manager
Administration, Contact Center Multimedia, and Communication Control
Toolkit.
Corporate licensing—The options in the license file apply to a network of
Contact Center Manager Server, Contact Center Manager Administration,
Contact Center Multimedia, and Communication Control Toolkit servers.
Nodal licensing
When you choose Nodal licensing, all licensing options for the applications in
the Contact Center node are in a single license file that is managed by the
License Manager.
Corporate licensing
You can use Corporate Licensing to distribute licenses to multiple servers so
they can share licenses from a single pool.
Example
You have two sites: Galway and Auckland. Both sites have 100 Voice Agents.
The License Manager is installed co-resident with the Galway Contact Center
Manager Server. When the day starts, all of the voice agents in Galway request
licenses from the license server. One hundred licenses are issued in Galway. As
Galway closes, the Auckland day starts. As the Galway agents log off, the
licenses are made available for the agents in Auckland.
In this example, you require only 100 Voice Agent licenses to share across the
two sites.
Each license that the License Manager grants to the Contact Center Manager
Server, Contact Center Manager Administration, Contact Center Multimedia, or
Communication Control Toolkit is refreshed by the respective application. This
ensures that licenses are always returned to the License Manager pool if the
applications fail. The refresh mechanism requires an available network
connection to the License Manager.
For Corporate License applications, Nortel recommends that you install the
primary License Manager software on the NCC.
Install the secondary License Manager on any Contact Center Manager Server
that does not contain the primary License Manager, including the NCC. You
cannot install the primary and secondary License Manager software on the same
server.
The License Manager available in Contact Center Release 6.0 uses a new license
key structure. The License Manager license file replaces all the existing
Symposium keycodes. The License Manager offers flexible licensing options
and supports licensing of features at the node (Nodal License) or network
(Corporate License) level.
The license file provides a single point of administration for licensing and
includes multiple keycodes for Contact Center Manager Server, Contact Center
Manager Administration, Contact Center Multimedia, and Communication
Control Toolkit. This single file reduces the number of separate keycodes that
you must maintain. If you require additional features or if your requirements
change, you can upload a new license file, containing the new licensing
information, to the server and replace the existing licensing file.
You can find the license file in the D:\Nortel\lm\bin folder on the server. The
license file is called plservrc.
ATTENTION
A corporate license file can only be generated from the Nortel
server subnet Network Interface Card (NIC) MAC address.
The nodal license file can be generated from either the Nortel
server subnet NIC MAC address or the CS 1000/Meridian 1
serial ID.
In Corporate Licensing mode you can use a secondary License Manager for
redundancy. Both the primary and secondary License Managers can use the
same license file.
When a secondary License Manager is specified for a feature, two license keys
appear. Each license is keyed against the MAC address of the two License
Manager servers.

Component Description
3 Click OK.
4 Click Cancel to exit the License Manager Configuration dialog box.
Package licensing
The license file includes the following package types:
CCS200—The base package
(The Network-skilled Based Routing feature is not included in the base
package.) You must select this package for SIP installations.
CCS300—The networking package
CCS350—The Network Control Center package
These packages are available in both the Nodal Licensing (N) and Corporate
Licensing (C) modes.
Agent licenses
Agent licenses determine the number of agents that can log on to Contact
Center. Agent licenses are available for both Nodal and Corporate Licensing.
Feature licenses
The following feature licenses are available:
Open Queue (not supported co-resident with SIP)
Universal Networking (not supported co-resident with SIP)
Standby Server
Outbound (not supported co-resident with SIP)
Report Creation Wizard (supported with SIP)
Licensed features
This section describes some of the licensed features in Contact Center.
Open Queue
With Open Queue, you can queue voice and multimedia contacts in Contact
Center Release 6.0 and then route the contacts to agents using the Contact
Center Agent Desktop. Configure Open Queue using the Contact Center
Manager Server Setup Configuration utility.
Universal Networking
Universal Networking is the networking between Communication Server 1000/
Meridian 1 PBX systems and Communication Server 2x00/DMS systems.
Configure the Universal Networking feature using the Contact Center Manager
Server Setup Configuration utility.
Standby Server
Use the Standby Server feature to replicate a primary Contact Center Manager
Server database to a Standby Server.
Configure the Standby Server using the Contact Center Manager Server Setup
Configuration utility.
For more information, see the Nortel Contact Center Manager Server
Installation Guide and Maintenance Guide for the Standby Server.
Outbound
Only licensed users can access the Outbound Campaign Manager Tool using
Contact Center Manager Administration.
The Outbound Campaign Manager Tool is only compatible with Contact Center
Multimedia/Outbound.
For more information about the Outbound feature, see the Contact Center
Manager Administrator’s Guide.
For more information about Report Creation Wizard, see the Contact Center
Manager Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
License identifiers
License identifiers connect a license file to a particular server or to a particular
installation. For example:
pT0z9b4z++unYkFAwIAZlJKQkVElvfG2lTzUsgCOqLtqtsbWmp6cHZ3dzc0=
# plicd 1.2 00:11:25:3e:11:78 (1) 360 secs
The MAC address can be any MAC address of any of the network interface
cards (NIC); however, Nortel recommends that you use the Nortel server subnet
MAC address. If the MAC address does not match the MAC address in the
license file, the Contact Center License Service cannot start.
You can also use the MAC addresses, but the license file is shipped with a serial
ID rather than the MAC address.
You must enter the serial ID correctly during the installation. If the serial ID
does not match the ID used to generate the license file, the Contact Center
License Manager Server cannot start.
ATTENTION
A corporate license file can only be generated from the Nortel
server subnet NIC MAC address. The nodal license file can be
generated from either the Nortel server subnet NIC MAC
address or the CS 1000/Meridian 1 serial ID.
If you are using Communication Control Toolkit as part of the Contact Center
solution, use Contact Center Manager Server for the License Manager software.
The MAC address can be any MAC address of the NICs; however, Nortel
recommends that you use the Nortel server subnet MAC address. If the MAC
address does not match the MAC address in the license file, the Contact Center
License Service cannot start.
SIP server
The only identifier allowed for SIP installations is the MAC address of the
Contact Center Manager Server running License Manager.
The MAC address can be any MAC address of the NICs; however, Nortel
recommends that you use the Nortel server subnet MAC address. If the MAC
address does not match the MAC address in the license file, the Contact Center
License Service cannot start.
The MAC address can be any MAC address of the NICs; however, Nortel
recommends that you use the Nortel server subnet MAC address. If the MAC
address does not match the MAC address in the license file, the Contact Center
License Service cannot start.

You cannot choose a different package after you configure
Contact Center Manager Server. If you choose the wrong
package, you must reinstall Contact Center Manager Server.
You can find the license file in the D:\Nortel\lm\bin folder on the server. The
license file is called plservrc.
The options in the CCMS package list depend on your installation. Only
packages applicable to your installation choice appear in the list.
The options can include the following:
CCS200N
CCS200C
CCS300N

The serial number must match the serial number in the License file and the
switch serial number.
7 In the Primary License Manager IP box, type the IP address of the
Primary License Manager server.
If you selected the Nodal Licensing package in Step 1, the Contact Center
Manager Server Setup Configuration utility automatically populates the
Primary License Manager Server IP address because the License Manager
server and Contact Center Manager Server must be installed on the same
server. If you selected a Corporate Licensing package, you must enter the
IP address manually.
8 In the Port box, type the port number of the Primary License Manager.
The default port number is 3998. You must have 10 ports to configure
licensing on any server. These 10 port numbers are offset from the base
port number that is set during the License Manager configuration. The
range of ports is 3998 to 4007. If, for example, you want to change the port
number to 20000, the port range is 20000 to 20009.
9 If you have a Secondary License Manager, in the Secondary License
Manager IP box, type the IP address of the Secondary License Manager
server.
ATTENTION
The IP addresses for the primary and secondary
License Manager must be on the same Nortel server
subnet and the Nortel server subnet must be at the top
of the binding order on the Contact Center Manager
Server and License Manager.
10 In the Port box, type the port number of the Secondary License Manager.
The default port number is 3998. You must have 10 ports to configure
licensing on any server. These 10 port numbers are offset from the base
port number that is set during the License Manager configuration. The
range of ports is 3998 to 4007.
Each application (Contact Center Manager Administration, Contact Center
Multimedia, and Communication Control Toolkit) requires the range of 10
ports.
11 Click OK.
You can use the License Manager Configuration window to locate (or change)
the license file and to change the default port number.
If you change the name or IP address of any server on which the License
Manager is installed, you must ensure that you update all of the other Contact
Center servers. For more information, see XREF.

The grace period duration is equal to 10 days and is accumulative over the
lifetime of the product. On the first occurrence of a communication problem
between the Contact Center Manager Server and the License Manager, 10 days
are available for the Contact Center Manager Server to continue normal
operation. If the problem is resolved in two days, on the next occurrence of a
communication problem, eight days are available to fix the problem.
If, at any stage, the grace period expires, Contact Center Manager Server shuts
down and locked. You cannot restart Contact Center Manager Server without
resetting the grace period.
You can reset the grace period to 10 days at any time. When a communication
error is detected, an event is fired to the Server Utility detailing that an error
occurred, the time already elapsed in the Grace Period, and a lock code that you
must return to Nortel to reset the grace period.

codes for the CCMS Control Service and the ASM Service. Repeat steps 1
to 6 for both services.
Within the grace period, you have the same capabilities as if you were the only
client of the License Manager. You can request the maximum licenses that are
available from the License Manager. When communication is reestablished, the
licenses are acquired automatically from the License Manager (if they are
available).
When a licensing error is detected, you must check that the License Manager
service is running, and verify the status of the License Manager server and
network communications. During the grace period, alarms are sent every 6 hours
notifying the time elapsed in the grace period.
During the grace period, you can shut down, start up, or restart Contact Center
Manager Server without affecting the operation of Contact Center Manager
Server.
The emergency license file expires after 30 days and is used only to ensure
operation of the Contact Center Manager Server on a temporary basis.
You must install the emergency license file through the License Manager
Configuration tool. If you are using corporate licensing, you may need to change
the Contact Center Manager Server configuration in cases where the License
Manager is installed on a different server than it was previously.
1 From the Start menu, choose All Programs > Nortel Contact Center >
License Manager > Configuration.
2 Click Browse.
The data is written to the database on the server on which you installed the
License Manager for each 15-minute interval. These statistics are consolidated
daily, weekly, and monthly.
The License Manager reports any errors in writing data to the database.
The data is stored on a site-by-site basis where the site identifier is the IP address
of the server.
wLicenseStat—weekly statistics
mLicenseStat—monthly statistics

Overview
In Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 or later, you can install the
following software on the same server:
Contact Center Manager Server
License Manager
Contact Center Manager Administration
Communication Control Toolkit (optional)
Server Utility (you can install the Server Utility with Contact Center
Manager Server or stand-alone)
LinkPlexer (for use with Communication Server 2x00/DMS switch)
You can install only the Communication Control Toolkit on a server on which
you installed Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center Manager
Administration. You cannot install Communication Control Toolkit on the
server if you do not install both Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration.
If you installed Contact Center Manager Server and Server Utility on the same
computer, and then you install Contact Center Manager Administration, you
must uninstall the Server Utility before you install Contact Center Manager
Administration, and then reinstall it after you install Contact Center Manager
Administration.
For migrations and upgrades, you must select the same switch type on the new
server that is associated with the old server. For example, if you have a co-
resident 5.0 configuration with a Communication Server 1000/Meridian 1 PBX
switch, you cannot upgrade to a co-resident 6.0 configuration with a DMS or
SIP switch.
ATTENTION
When you install the latest Service Update, note
the Administrator account that you use to log on
to the server. If you have multiple Administrator
accounts, ensure that you always use the same
account to install or uninstall Service Updates,
Service Update Supplements, and any designer
fixes or patches on the server. If you install an
update with one account, and then try to install
the next update or uninstall the current patch
while logged on as a different account, the
installation or uninstallation fails.

Installation order
When you install co-resident applications, the installation order is important.
You must always install the Contact Center Manager Server software first,
followed by the License Manager, Contact Center Manager Administration,
Communication Control Toolkit (if applicable), and then the Server Utility.
You do not need to install all co-resident software at once. Instead, you can
install one component and then install the next component later if you want to
work with a co-resident server. For example, you can install Contact Center
Manager Server, and then, when the Contact Center Manager Server installation
is finished, choose Cancel in the window that asks if you want to proceed with
the co-resident installation. When you want to install Contact Center Manager
Administration on this server, insert the Contact Center Manager installation
DVD to begin the installation.
During the operating system installation, you can add the server to an existing
Active Directory domain. Do not add the server to the domain during the
operating system installation. Add the server to the domain after you install the
operating system, Contact Center Manager Server, and Contact Center Manager
Administration.
With these restrictions in mind, if your company security policy requires that
servers must always be part of a domain and you chose to install a co-resident
configuration, then you cannot delay installing Contact Center Manager
Administration (and Communication Control Toolkit, if applicable) as this
entails having Contact Center Manager Server running on a server that is not
part of a domain. Instead, you must install Contact Center Manager
Administration (and Communication Control Toolkit, if applicable) directly
after Contact Center Manager Server so that you can add the server to the
domain immediately after the installation.
Installation tips
For more information about the installation and configuration for each software
program:
For information about Contact Center Manager Administration, follow the
installation and configuration procedures listed in the Nortel Contact
Center Manager Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
For information about installing and configuring Communication Control
Toolkit, see the Nortel Communication Control Toolkit Installation and
Maintenance Guide.
When you install the chosen software, first install the Contact Center Manager
Server software from the Contact Center Manager installation DVD. After the
installation is complete, the installation program then asks if you want to install
Contact Center Manager Administration on the server. When you finish
installing Contact Center Manager Administration, and if you are not installing
Communication Control Toolkit, the system prompts you to restart the server.
However, if you are installing Communication Control Toolkit, then the
installation continues.
Timing
The following installation times provide guidance on the time required for
software installation:
Preinstallation (including operating system installation and configuration):
2.5 hours
Installing the server software: 1 hour (including Communication Control
Toolkit) or 30 minutes (without Communication Control Toolkit)
Postinstallation tasks: 7 hours (with Communication Control Toolkit) or
5.5 hours (without Communication Control Toolkit)
These times can vary depending on the server, network infrastructure, and your
confidence level with the software. The preceding installation times were
obtained on servers with the following specifications:
CPU: Intel Xeon 3GHz
Ram: 2.0 GB
Hard Drive: 80 GB 7200 RPM SATA with no RAID configuration.
DVD Drive: Internal IDE 8X DVD-ROM
Nortel recommends that you consult the Capacity Assessment Tool (CapTool)
before using any components on your co-resident server to ensure that the server
meets the requirements of your Contact Center. As of the date of publication, the
CapTool enables you to assess the setup of your co-resident system when
external clients are used.

Apply patches
When you apply a patch or a Service Update to a co-resident server, always see
the Readme file that accompanies the new software for instructions to install the
update and, in particular, guidelines on whether a server restart is required. The
impact of the upgrade for the co-resident system is always documented in the
readme file.
ATTENTION
Do not perform unmanned maintenance on the Contact
Center Manager Server. Nortel recommends the Contact
Center Manager Server administrator supervise all
maintenance activities on the server.
ATTENTION
Do not perform unmanned maintenance on the Contact
Center Manager Server. Nortel recommends the Contact
Center Manager Server administrator supervise all
maintenance activities on the server.
When you perform a full offline backup of the server, the entire server is backed
up, including both the Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center
Manager Administration applications. This backup method ensures that the data
between the two applications is always synchronized. You must perform this
type of backup with the third-party backup tool of your choice, ensuring that it is
compatible with Contact Center Manager Server. Nortel does not recommend a
specific tool for its compatibility with Contact Center Manager Server.
Logging
Contact Center Manager Server provides logging (D:\sysops.log) to track events
associated with any installation, reinstallation, upgrade, or uninstallation
operation. It also tracks fatal errors that interrupt these operations. You can use a
text editor (for example, Notepad) to view the SysOps Event log.
The following checklist contains the software and equipment you need to install
the server software.

Domain support
Do not add the server to the domain until you install Contact Center Manager
Server. If you server is part of a domain, then remove the server, create a new
user account with local admin privileges, and then log on with new user.
Nortel recommends that you install and configure a remote support access tool
prior to installing Contact Center Manager Administration so that you can
access technical support during the installation procedure, if required.
Nortel personnel use pcAnywhere 11.5 as the preferred remote support access
tool. To install and configure pcAnywhere 11.5 Host Only on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server, see “Installing pcAnywhere 11.5 Host Only” on
page 125. If a previous version of pcAnywhere is installed on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server, consult the Symantec Web site
(www.symantec.com) to find out whether you must uninstall this version before
installing pcAnywhere 11.5.
Nortel recommends that you install only one of the supported remote access
tools (pcAnywhere or Remote Desktop Connection for Administration) on the
Contact Center Manager Administration server, not both.
CCT (stand-alone) No
CCMA and CCMS (co-resident) Yes
One licensed copy of pcAnywhere version 11.5 Host Only is provided on the
Contact Center Manager installation DVD. You can use this software license to
configure the server as the host computer in remote control sessions (that is, the
computer to which remote computers connect).

For example, if SU01, SUS0101, SUS0102 are released, SU02 contains SU01,
SUS0101, and SUS0102.
ATTENTION
When you install the latest Service Update, note the
Administrator account with which you log on to the server. If
you have multiple Administrator accounts, ensure that you
always use the same account to install or uninstall Service
Updates, Service Update Supplements, and Designer Patches
on the server. If you install an update with one account, and
then try to install the next update or uninstall the current patch
while logged on as a different account, the installation or
uninstallation fails.
Installation of SU02 and SUS0201 fails if the
ServerSoapName key in the registry is greater than 24
characters. In this scenario, the License Manager Service does
not start, and the Service Update installation fails. The
ServerSoapName value exceeds 24 characters when your site
references the Contact Center Manager Administration fully
qualified domain name in the SOAP files, and you enter a
URL of more than 24 characters in the SOAP Configuration
Parameters window during the Contact Center Manager
Administration installation. For information about
troubleshooting this issue, see the Contact Center Manager
Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
To download and apply the latest Service Update, you must have a program
installed that can open and extract files with the .zip extension (for example,
WinZip).
7 Click Yes to read the file, or No to proceed directly with the installation.
The readme file can contain important information about the update that
you install, such as a list of dependent patches, any pre- or postinstallation
tasks to perform, or the need to stop any services manually. Nortel
recommends that you read the file before installing the patch.
If you install an older version of a Service Update or Service Update
Supplement than that which is currently installed on the server, the
installation is halted and a notification window appears. Click Cancel to exit
the installation. If you require the older Service Update, manually uninstall
the newer patch, and then run the installation for the older patch again.
8 Click Next.
Result: The Ready to Install window appears.
9 Click Install.
Result: The Installing window appears, showing you the progress of the
installation.
To protect your system from unauthorized access, change the passwords for the
Nortel user accounts as soon as you finish the installation.
NGenDist and NGenDesign are Windows remote access accounts that enable
the distributor or Nortel customer support to remotely log on to the server if
requested by the customer. These accounts are created during the server
software installation. To ensure server security, change the NGenDist and
NGenDesign passwords.
ATTENTION
The on-site installer is instructed to change all default
passwords as part of the on-site installation procedures.
You can change all passwords with the procedures in this
section. Nortel recommends that you change all passwords
regularly to maintain system security.
If server software is reinstalled, the default accounts and
passwords are recreated and passwords must be changed.
6 Click Proceed.
Result: The Properties window appears.
7 In the Password box, type the new password.
Note: Ensure that you use a password that contains a combination of
numbers and letters (see “Password guidelines” on page 2492).
8 In the Confirm Password box, type the same password entered in the
Password box.
9 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
10 Click OK
11 Repeat steps 4 to 10 for NGenDesign and NGenSys.
12 Select Exit to save changes.
13 Record these passwords and store them in a secure place away from the
server.
If you changed the NGenSys password, continue with the following
procedure.
ATTENTION
When you are finished changing passwords, remember
to log on as NGenSys. You must be logged on as
NGenSys to monitor and manage the server.
5 Click the Log On tab, and then fill in the Password and Confirm Password
boxes with the current NGenSys password.
Note: Use the same password you assigned to NGenSys in “Changing the
NGenDist, NGenDesign, or NGenSys passwords” on page 262.
6 Click OK.
ATTENTION
When you are finished, remember to log on as NGenSys.
You must be logged on as NGenSys to monitor and
manage the server.
Password security
Write down the new passwords you create, and store them in a safe, secure place
away from the server. Give the passwords only to those who need them.
ATTENTION
If your server computer is on a workgroup, complete this
step. If you intend to add your server to a domain, see Step
19. “Add server to domain (optional)” on page 268 for
information about configuring the NGen user groups for
remote access in a domain environment.
This step shows you how to add your Contact Center Manager Server to an
existing domain, and perform other necessary tasks to make your server work in
a domain. To perform this step, you need domain administrator’s privileges, or
ask the domain administrator to assign you a domain user account for remote
access.
ATTENTION
You must disable Windows Time Service when Contact
Center Manager Server is in a domain.
5 To add the server to an existing domain, select the Domain option, and
then type the name of the domain (you must provide the fully qualified
domain name of the domain, which includes the prefix and suffix).
6 Click OK.
Result: A dialog box appears asking you for a name and password with
permission to join the domain.
8 Click OK.
Result: When the system processes your change successfully, a window
appears welcoming you to the domain that you specified.

12 Click Finish.
Result: The Routing and Remote Access service starts and is successfully
installed on your computer.
Note: Nortel recommends that you use a user name and password that are
different from NGenDist and NGenDesign. The network administrator is
required to carry out this step. Record the user name and password
carefully as they are required to support the Contact Center Manager
Server remotely.
2 On the Contact Center Manager Server, no changes are required to the
operating system, RAS configuration, server software or pcAnywhere
installation.
3 When you dial into the Contact Center Manager Server, the system
prompts the remote user for a domain user account and password. After
the Domain controller authenticates the domain user account and
password, you can start the pcAnywhere session.The pcAnywhere login
can still use the NGenDist or NGenDesign account.
Note: Because no local record of the Domain user account exists, you
must maintain two user accounts the domain user account and the local
pcAnywhere account.
When you create a Platform Recovery Disk, the system saves both server and
database configuration data into a series of text files. You must keep an up-to-
date Platform Recovery Disk available in case you need to recover your server
software, database, or both. You also need this disk for upgrade and migration
procedures. Nortel recommends you create a Platform Recovery disk after any
major modifications to the system.
You can create a Platform Recovery Disk on either a floppy disk or a remote
directory on a network computer.
If you want to use a remote computer, you must first map the directory on the
network computer to a network drive on your server. The name of the remote
directory into which you save the Platform Recovery Disk must not contain any
spaces. Spaces in the remote directory name cause errors.
The Platform Recovery Disk contains the following support files:
dbdvc.txt
dbseg.txt
MigInfo.txt
rbackup.txt
4 In the Create Platform Recovery Disk section, perform one of the following
tasks:
Option 1: Saving the Platform Recovery Disk to a floppy disk
a. Insert a blank floppy disk in drive A.
b. Click Create Disk.
Result: The following message appears.
c. Click OK.
Option 2: Saving the Platform Recovery Disk to a remote directory
e. Click OK.
Note: The system also checks for database segmentation problems. If it
finds any problems, a message indicating the type of problem appears.
If the system finds a database data segmentation overlapping problem,
then it advises you to contact Nortel customer support before
proceeding with the migration procedure. After customer support fixes
the problem, you must create a new Platform Recovery Disk before
proceeding with the migration.
If the system finds a database log segmentation overlapping problem,
then you can still use the Platform Recovery Disk that you just created.
The system prompts you to shut down the Symposium Call Center
Server services so it can fix the problem. Follow the on-screen prompt
to shut down the services.
5 Click OK. If you used a floppy disk, remove it from the drive, and label it
clearly.
6 Close the Contact Center Manager Server Setup Configuration Utility
window so that the server configuration does not run.
7 Store the Platform Recovery Disk in a safe place.
If you installed or upgraded Contact Center Manager Server, you must accept

warning message title and text” on page 304.
5 Click OK.
6 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
The Use Login Warning Message setting is server-specific.
If the Contact Center Manager Server is part of a networked
Contact Center, this setting needs to be set on each Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
The IP multicast address that the server in Contact Center Manager Server uses
to send data must be configured on Contact Center Manager Server. This
address is listed in the IP Multicast Group box.
If you choose, at a later date, to multicast-enable your entire network, you can
do so without upgrading Contact Center Manager Administration.
This type of data transmission enables users to view nodal Real-Time Displays,
network-consolidated Real-Time Displays, Agent Desktop Display, and
Emergency Help notifications on the client PCs.
Real-Time displays viewed on one client PC that use the same data stream share
a single connection to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (for
example, a standard agent display and a private agent display both use the agent
moving window stream and can share a single unicast connection). Therefore,
for n client displays of different statistical types, n separate data streams in
operation, which introduces additional traffic on the network.
If a client opens a collection display (six displays in one screen), several unicast
channels are opened from the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
the client computer, one for each statistic type in the collection.
Agent Desktop Display and Emergency Help notifications are not available on
client PCs that receive only unicast data.
4 In the IP Receive Address and IP Send Address boxes, type the correct
address information.
Note: The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending and
receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and 239.255.255.255 range. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast addresses for
your specific network.
5 Accept the default values in the Output Rate box (5000) and the Transform
Rate box (1000). You can adjust the default values; however, reducing the
Output Rate value and the Transform Rate value increases the workload
on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
Note: The fastest rate at which multicast data from Contact Center
Manager Server reaches the end user in Contact Center Manager
Administration is equal to the highest value among the following settings:
the Multicast Rate at which data is sent from Contact Center Manager
Server to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (For more
information about Multicast Rates, see the Nortel Contact Center
Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.)
the Output Rate at which the Contact Center Manager Administration
server sends data to client PCs
Example
If the Contact Center Manager Server Multicast Rate is set to 2
seconds, the Contact Center Manager Administration server Transform
Rate is set to 1 second, and the Contact Center Manager Administration
server Output Rate is 7 seconds, then the data on the client PC does
not refresh faster than every 7 seconds, regardless of the refresh rate
that the user chose in Real-Time Reporting.
If you want to decrease the length of time required for real-time statistics
to reach client PCs, you can decrease the Output Rate and Transform
Rate values; however, this impacts performance on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Notify users of the Real-Time Reporting
component of these rates so they can adjust the refresh rate
accordingly. For more information about adjusting rates and assessing
performance, see the Capacity Assessment Tool (CapTool) chapter of
the Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
6 Accept the default value in the OAM Timeout box (10000).
7 Nortel recommends that you leave the Compress Realtime Data Packets
check box selected, which is the default setting. If you clear this check
mark, then you disable real-time data packet compression.
8 In the Transmission Options area, click the button beside the transmission
mode that is required for the site. Choose one of:
Multicast only if your network supports multicast traffic (recommended),
and proceed to step 11.
Unicast only if you do not want any multicast traffic on your network, and
proceed to step 9.
Multicast and Unicast if you want to support both transmission types,
and proceed to step 9.
9 If you select either Unicast or Multicast and Unicast, the Maximum Unicast
Sessions area appears at the lower section of the window.
Note: The value that you type in this box is used to limit the number of
client sessions and, as a result, the network bandwidth usage. Because
each open display adds CPU load on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, and adds to the overall bandwidth usage on the
network, you must limit the number of client sessions by typing the number
in this box. After this limit is reached, no further unicast real-time
connections are accepted until one of the existing streams is closed. An
error message is logged on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server to indicate the limit is reached, and a message appears on the client
indicating that the connection is not allowed. For guidance on entering the
appropriate value, see the Contact Center Manager Administration
Technical Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.
11 Click the Restart Real Time Reporting Service check box to select it.
12 Click OK.
Result: The Restart ICERtdService status window appears while the
service is restarting, and closes after the service restarts successfully.
13 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Real-Time
Reporting Configuration settings whenever these settings
are changed (for example, after installing or upgrading
Contact Center Manager Administration). If you need to
restore your Contact Center Manager Administration data,
you must reconfigure these settings manually.
The Emergency Help component functions only if you are using the multicast
communication method from the Contact Center Manager Administration server
to the client PC.
If you are configuring a replicating server, you must ensure that the Emergency
Help Configuration settings on the replicating server match the Emergency Help
Configuration settings on the primary server.

Center Manager Administration server sends Emergency Help information.
This IP Send address can be the same as or different from the IP address
that the Contact Center Manager Administration server uses to send Real-
Time Reporting and Agent Desktop Display data to client PCs. See the
checklist in Step 3. “Install your remote support access tool” on page 123 to
verify the IP Send address that you chose for the Contact Center Manager
Administration server to send Emergency Help data to client PCs (item 16
of the worksheet).
6 Click the Restart Emergency Help Service check box.
7 Click OK.
Result: The system restarts Emergency Help.
8 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Emergency
Help Configuration settings whenever these settings are
changed (for example, after installing or upgrading Contact
Center Manager Administration). If you need to restore
your Contact Center Manager Administration data, you
must reconfigure these settings manually.
After you verify that SMTP is installed, you can configure the SMTP server to

You have three options for configuring printers to print scheduled historical
reports:
Option 1—Configure the CCMA server to point to a network printer
Option 2—Configure a default network printer that uses the Contact
Center Manager Administration server as the print server
Option 3—Configure a network shared printer connected to a print server
other than the Contact Center Manager Administration server
Procedures for each of these options are documented in this section. Choose the
option that is most appropriate for your organization.
You can set up as many printers as your operating system supports. However,
only five scheduled reports are processed simultaneously. The remaining
scheduled reports wait in queue and get processed on a first-in, first-out basis to
provide higher priority to the as needed reports. You can use any of these
printers to print reports and scripts, provided that they are configured according
to one of the following procedures.

Granting change and read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is
iceAdmin or domain account) provides only a higher level of security. However,
granting change and read permissions to the Everyone group provides more
flexibility because Contact Center Manager Administration users can download
exported report output files from the shared folder without special permissions.
Choose the option that is most appropriate for the security policy of your
organization.
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
scheduled report account (that is, iceAdmin or domain account), follow
these steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
store the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is,
iceAdmin or domain account) on the folder
2. To create a shared folder with change and read permissions to Everyone
account on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, follow these
steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
store the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Right-click on the target folder and grant change/read permissions to
Everyone.
For example, to export scheduled report files to the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, in the Output box on the Report Properties window, type
the path to the shared folder where the report is sent. The path must have the
format \\<Contact Center Manager Administration server name>\<shared folder
name>\<file name>, without the file extension. That is, if the Contact Center
Manager Administration server computer name is appsrvr, the shared folder
name is reports, and you decide to call the report agent, you type
\\appsrvr\reports\agent in the Output box.
Scheduled reports use the local administrator account named iceAdmin or the
domain account set up by the administrator in the iceAdmin Password Change
Utility to run, print and export the scheduled report.
The reports are exported locally to the shared folder on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Contact Center Manager Administration users
require read permission on the Contact Center Manager Administration's shared
folder to copy the exported report files to their desktops/client PCs.
To enable users to access the saved report file, you must grant each user
read/delete access rights to this folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server (or alternately, create separate shared folders with read/
delete access for each applicable user). For details about configuring user access
privileges, see the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.

configuration change utility) client PC
You can export only scheduled reports to client PCs that are within the same
domain as the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
To export scheduled reports to the client PC, you must first create a shared
folder on the client PC, and grant change and read permissions to the scheduled
reports account group (that is, iceAdmin or the domain account set up by the
administrator using the iceAdmin Password Change Utility).
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
iceAdmin account, follow these steps:
Click Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users
and Groups > Users.
Create a new user iceAdmin with the same password as on Contact
Center Manager Administration server
Create a folder on the client PC to store the exported scheduled report
file from the Contact Center Manager Administration scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the local iceAdmin account on the
folder
This option does not work when the client PC is outside the domain of the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. In this scenario, you must add
the client PC to the network domain of the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
To export scheduled report files to a client PC, in the Output box on the Report
Properties window, type the path to the shared folder to which the report is sent.
The path must have the format \\<client PC computer name>\<shared folder
name>\<file name>, without the file extension. Alternatively, you can use the
Browse button to select your shared folder for export file.
For example, to export the Agent Performance report to a shared folder on the
client PC where the client PC computer name is clientpc, the shared folder name
is reports, and the report name is agent, in the Output box, type
\\clientpc\reports\agent.
For details about configuring user access privileges, see the Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 documentation. If you require additional information about creating
and mapping folders, see your Microsoft documentation.
However, if you make changes to the original report on the network computer
after you import it into Contact Center Manager Administration, these changes
are not reflected in the imported report unless you select Synchronize report
template from the network drive in the template importing wizard. If you select
this value when importing the report, then, when you subsequently run the
imported report in Contact Center Manager Administration (either as needed or
scheduled), the system checks the network folder in which the original report is
stored to see if any changes exist. If the original report changes, the system
synchronizes these changes with the imported report before running it. This
process is automatic and invisible to the user.
If you changed several original reports after importing them into Contact Center
Manager Administration, you can manually synchronize the changes with the
imported reports all at once by using the Synchronize User Imported Report
Templates window in Contact Center Manager Administration.
In this window, when you click Submit, the system synchronizes the changes
made to all original reports stored in shared folders on a client PC with the
copies stored on the Contact Center Manager Administration server. However,
because this can be a lengthy process (based on the number of reports), to avoid
corrupting any existing reports, Nortel recommends that you click Submit only
when no reports are running.
Before you can use the report synchronization feature, you must set up the
shared folder on the client PC with the appropriate access privileges according
to your organization’s security policy.
ATTENTION
When the Contact Center Manager Administration server
is part of a network domain, the user imported reports
(only when run as scheduled reports) cannot be
synchronized automatically because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server account that is used for
scheduled reports, iceAdmin, cannot have access to the
network directory. In this scenario, to synchronize the
affected user imported reports, follow the procedure “To
manually synchronize changes made to user imported
templates” in the Contact Center Manager Administration
online Help, or run the report as needed whenever the
original report template is modified on the source
network location.
or
You can share the folder with read permissions for the IUSR_SWC and
iceAdmin accounts (these accounts are used by the Contact Center Manager
Administration server). For details, see “Option 2: Sharing the folder with
read permissions for the IUSR_SWC and iceAdmin accounts (these
accounts are used by the Contact Center Manager Administration server)”

Contact Center Manager Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
ATTENTION
When installing and configuring the software on the
Contact Center Manager Administration server, you cannot
install a non-English version of the operating system over
a previously installed English version of the operating
system. Instead, you must ensure that the Contact Center
Manager Administration server is completely clean and
free of all English operating system components before
proceeding with the non-English installation. Failure to
do so results in functionality problems in Contact Center
Manager Administration.
On co-resident servers that contain Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration, the only supported language versions of the
Windows Server 2003 operating system are:
English
Japanese
Traditional Chinese
You must also configure the server in Contact Center Manager Server to handle
Japanese, install the Japanese language pack on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, and configure the browser’s language preferences for
Japanese on both the Contact Center Manager Administration server and client
PCs.
In this scenario, agents in the Contact Center can choose whether they want to
view Contact Center Manager Administration in English or Japanese by
changing the browser settings on their PC.
While you can switch from Japanese to English and from English to Japanese,
you cannot switch from Japanese to Traditional Chinese because these
languages belong to different language families.
You must also configure the server in Contact Center Manager Server to handle
Traditional Chinese, install the Traditional Chinese language pack on the
Contact Center Manager Administration server, and configure the browser’s
language preferences for Traditional Chinese on both the Contact Center
Manager Administration server and client PCs.
In this scenario, agents in the Contact Center can choose whether they want to
view Contact Center Manager Administration in English or Traditional Chinese
by changing the browser settings on their PC.
While you can switch from Traditional Chinese to English and from English to
Traditional Chinese, you cannot switch from Traditional Chinese to Japanese
because these languages belong to different language families.

display all system services and events
This section describes how to use the NCCT 6.0 Console to configure
Communication Control Toolkit resources. You can use the default version of
the NCCT 6.0 Console, or use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC)
snap-in to create custom interfaces for configuring and administering
Communication Control Toolkit resources.
This section assumes that you are using the default configuration for NCCT 6.0
Console. If you are not using the default configuration for NCCT 6.0 Console,
you must add the snap-ins. For more information about adding snap-ins to an
empty Microsoft Management Console (MMC) window, see “Starting
the Communication Control Toolkit console” on page 474.
The custom secure transport layer uses the Microsoft Security Support Provider
Interface (SSPI) to authenticate the user associated with each new connection
made to the Communication Control Toolkit Server.
Any Nortel Communication Control Toolkit client must share the same domain
security as the server. The client must be in the same domain or a trusted domain
with the server.
The Nortel Communication Control Toolkit provides the following three levels
of transport security.
Security Description

Preconfigured resources
You can use the Nortel Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 Console to add
terminals (phonesets) and addresses (DN). Communication Control Toolkit
provides the following preconfigured default resources:
Terminal Types:
Agent: An agent terminal can log on to an ACD queue and answer calls
routed to that queue (if scripted). An Agent terminal can also make
calls.
Knowledge Worker: A knowledge worker terminal cannot log on to an
ACD queue or answer calls routed to a queue. A knowledge worker
terminal can make and answer regular calls.
Address Types:
Basic: A basic address (SCR key) is an address with a terminal
(physical endpoint) associated with it. The basic address is used by
Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 users to answer and make calls.
Route Point: A route point address (CDN) is an address to a terminal
that is not associated with a line. The Route Point address is used by the
Telephony Service Provider to accept incoming contacts or as a point to
which contacts are routed.
Agent: A position ID (ACD key) for the CS 1000/Meridian 1 switch.
CCMM
You can import these resources in NCCT Admin on the NCCT 6.0 Console.
You can use only the Importing Utilities when the Communication Control
Toolkit 6.0 server is offline.
9 Click Browse.
Result: The available terminals and addresses from the Service Provider
appear.
10 Click Apply.
Note: No selection is possible; you must import all available terminals and
addresses. You must ensure that all terminals are imported along with their
associated addresses and vice versa.
Result: The Importing from the telephony service provider confirmation
window appears.
Import users from the Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 server and
local domain
You can import Windows users from the Communication Control Toolkit 6.0
server and from the local domain using the Import Windows Users tool. If you
do not want to import Windows users, skip this step and continue on to “Import
Contact Center users” on page 504.
Notes:
If you want to import users from a domain, the Communication Control
Toolkit user must be logged on to the specified domain.
If you are importing domain users configured using the
domain.companyname.com format, the utility imports the user using the
domainname\username format.
If you want to import users from a domain, the Communication Control
Toolkit administrator must be logged on to the server using a domain user
account that is also a local administrator account on the Communication
Control Toolkit server.
If you want to import workstations from a domain, the Communication
Control Toolkit administrator must be logged on to the Communication
Control Toolkit server using a domain user account that is also a local
administrator account on the Communication Control Toolkit server.
9 Select the users from the current server that you want to import.
Note: You can select multiple users by holding down the CRTL key while
selecting each user.
10 Click Add.
Result: The workstation users are added to the import list (in the lower
portion of the Import Windows Users Properties window).
11 Click OK.

Toolkit database.
If you do not want to import local domain workstations, skip this step and
continue on to “Import Contact Center users” on page 504.
b. Right-click the NCCT Data Access Layer service, and then click
Restart.
Result: The service is restarted.
c. Close the Services window.
5 Click Start > All Programs > Nortel > Communication Control Toolkit >
NCCT 6.0 Console.
Result: The NCCT 6.0 Console appears.
6 Expand NCCT Admin.
7 Click Importing Tools.
Result: The available Importing Tools appear.
8 Double-click Import Workstations.
Note: If the Communication Control Toolkit server is in a workgroup on a
stand-alone server, there are no workstations to import.
Result: The Import Work Stations Properties window appears.
Before importing Contact Center users, you must complete the following:
enable the Open Queue feature (for multimedia)on Contact Center Manager
Server
configure the Communication Control Toolkit server using the NCCT 6.0
Console
enable the Contact Management Framework replication for the
Communication Control Toolkit
configure at least one user (agent or agent supervisor) using Contact Center
Manager Administration
After all of your resources are created, you must map the resources. Mapping
resources assigns users, Contact Center users, addresses, and terminals to groups
of resources, and then associates the individual resources or resource groups to
workstations. Mapping ensures that the contacts (voice or multimedia) are sent
to the correct communications endpoint so that a user on a particular workstation
can handle the contact.
Use the NCCT 6.0 Console to map or associate resources with other resources
for handling contacts.
If you are using a Communication Control Toolkit client that is developed using
the Communication Control Toolkit Software Development Kit (SDK), you
must assign users, terminals, and workstations in the NCCT Console.
Resource types
You can use information in Nortel Communication Control Toolkit Installation
and Maintenance Guide to create the following main Communication Control
Toolkit resources:
User: A Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 user is a Contact Center agent
who is logged on to one or more communications terminals to receive
queued contacts or a knowledge worker.
User Group: The Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 user groups
represent logical groups of users (for example, a sales group or a support
group).
Contact Center User: A Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 contact
centre user represents a user that is configured in Contact Center Manager
Administration and Contact Center Manager Server (agent or supervisor).
Contact Center User Group: The Communication Control Toolkit 6.0
Contact Center user group represents logical groups of Contact Center
Users (for example, agents or supervisors).
Address: A Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 address represents a
logical communications endpoint (for example, an e-mail address, a
telephone number).
Note: Terminal groups, user groups, and address groups must not be used unless
the hotdesking feature is enabled in Communication Control Toolkit.
Map information
Mappings use the following principles:
Mappings are bidirectional. This means that if you map one resource to a
second, the second resource is also mapped to the first.
For example, if you map a user to a user group, the user group is also
mapped to the user.
Mappings are distributed using groups. If you map one resource to a second
resource that is a group, and the second resource to a third, the first resource
is also mapped to the third.
For example, if you map two users to a user group, and then map the user
group to a terminal, the users are considered mapped to the terminal adn the
associated address.
Or, if you map a user to a user group, the user inherits the user group
terminals and addresses.
Mappings are not associative. If you map one resource to a second, and
map the first resource to a third, the second and third resources are not
mapped to each other.
For example, if you map a terminal to an address, and then map that
terminal to a user, the user does not inherit the address. You must also map
the address to the user.
Resources cannot be mapped to resources that are the same type as itself.
For example, you cannot map a user to a user, or a terminal to a terminal.
Grouped resources cannot be mapped to resources that are closely related.
For example, you cannot map a terminal group to an address group because
both resources are types of end points.
Communication Control Toolkit supports the default automatic mapping of
addresses. Automatic mapping of addresses is only supported when you are
mapping terminals. Any mapping of a terminal (or terminal groups) to a
user (or user group) will have the address automatically mapped.
If you add a new terminal to an existing terminal group, any user (or user
group) that are mapped to the terminal group are by default automatically
mapped to the addresses of the new terminal.
If you add a new a user an existing user group , any terminal (or terminal
groups) that are mapped to the user group are by default automatically
mapped to the addresses of the terminal or terminals in the (terminal
groups). The address configured within each terminal should not be in a
Address Group, they are already associated to the terminal. Doing this can
exceed the CTI control capacity. Only route point (CDN) addresses should
be in the address group.
Only terminals are mapped to workstations.
Contact
Contact Center
User Center user Terminal Address
User group user group Terminal group Address group
User X X X X X X X
User group X X X X X X X
Contact X X X
Center user
Contact X X X
Center user
group
Terminal X X X X
Terminal X X X
group
Address X X X X
Address X X X
group
Workstation X
For example, the first column in the table shows that users can be mapped to
user groups, Contact Center users, Contact Center user groups, terminals,
terminal groups, addresses, and address groups, but not to workstations.
Notes:
You must map contact center users to a terminal, and then map the terminal
to a workstation.
When you map a user to a terminal, the addresses are mapped to the user by
default.
Do not map route point addresses to terminals: route point addresses are not
associated with terminals.
Mapping is usually only used when hotdesking is needed because mapping can
effect the control capacity of Communication Control Toolkit if not configured
properly. Nortel recommends that you map one user to one terminal to one
workstation.
Examples
The following sections are examples of mapping.
This section covers the basic resource mapping configuration as part of the
postinstallation configuration. For information about all other mappings, see

Overview
To log on to Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0, you need to install and
configure a client PC at your client workstations. A client PC can be any
computer in your network, including the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
Each client PC must be configured with Internet Explorer 6.0 or later with the
latest supported service pack and be supported by one of the following operating
systems:
Windows 2000 Professional
Windows 2000 Server
Windows 2000 Advanced Server
Windows XP Professional
Windows Server 2003
For information about the service packs validated with Contact Center Manager
Administration, consult the Contact Center Portfolio Service Packs
Compatibility and Security Hotfixes Applicability List located at
www.nortel.com.
see Step 55. “Install the Microsoft SOAP toolkit 3.0 (optional)” on page
591.
If you want agents to launch the Agent Desktop Display, you must install these
components on each applicable client PC.
This chapter provides instructions for installing and configuring the required
software on the client PCs.
On each client PC, you must configure the display settings so that all Contact
Center Manager Administration components are displayed correctly in the
browser window.
To access Contact Center Manager Administration with a client PC, you must
upgrade the browser to Internet Explorer 6.0 or later with the latest supported
service pack on each client workstation. For information about the service packs
validated with Contact Center Manager Administration, consult the Contact
Center Portfolio Service Packs Compatibility and Security Hotfixes
Applicability List located at www.nortel.com.
If your client PCs are already running Internet Explorer 6.0 or later with the
latest supported service pack, proceed directly to Step 54. “Configure Internet
Explorer” on page 575.
Search for downloads for Internet Explorer and select the latest service pack to
install.
To access Contact Center Manager Administration with a client PC, you must
configure the browser (Internet Explorer 6.0 or later with the latest supported
service pack) on each client workstation.
When you configure Internet Explorer 6.0 or later, you configure the Contact
Center Manager Administration server as a Trusted Site, and either disable all
cookies or block cookies to the desired level of security.
The supported operating systems for Internet Explorer 6.0 or later on the client
PC are:
Windows 2000 Professional
Windows 2000 Server
Windows 2000 Advanced Server
Windows XP Professional
Windows Server 2003
For information about security issues and Internet Explorer, see “About ActiveX
control security” on page 575.
Digital signatures
All controls provided with Contact Center Manager Administration are
contained within .cab files that are digitally signed either by Nortel or by the
third-party vendor of origin. Signing the .cab file verifies that the software
originated from a trusted source. The signed .cab file cannot be altered without
invalidating the signature, which validates that the contents of the .cab file
(including the control) also originated from a trusted source.
If the browser’s security settings stipulate that a control must be signed before it
is downloaded, Internet Explorer checks whether the .cab file containing the
control is signed before downloading an ActiveX control to the client PC. If the
signature is valid, the control is downloaded to the client PC.
This type of certificate is valid for a specified period of time (usually one year)
during which time software developers can use it to sign binary files with their
digital signature. The code signing certificate can expire (usually after one year)
without invalidating the signature. Provided the digital signature includes a
timestamp, the only other requirement for the validity of the digital signature is
that the code signing certificate be valid when the code is digitally signed. The
digital signature includes a timestamp taken from a trusted server to prove the
date on which the code is signed.
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates are different in that they are not useful
once they expire.
If these controls are marked as safe for scripting, they are available to all intranet
and Internet zone Web sites; however, because these controls are not marked
safe for scripting, they are available only to trusted sites, a more secure solution.
6 Under the ActiveX Controls and plug-ins heading, ensure that Enable is
selected for the following ActiveX Controls and plug-ins:
Allow Scriptlets (applicable on Internet Explorer 7.0 only)
Initialize and script ActiveX Controls not marked safe for scripting
Run ActiveX Controls and plug-ins
Script ActiveX Controls marked safe for scripting
7 Under the ActiveX Controls and plug-ins heading, ensure that Enable is
selected for Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls.
OR
Ensure that Enable is selected for Download signed ActiveX controls.
Note: All controls required for Contact Center Manager Administration
components are in .cab files that are digitally signed. If you select Enable,
Internet Explorer does not notify you that it is downloading a required
control. The control is automatically downloaded to the client PC the first
time it is required by the Contact Center Manager Administration
component in which you are working. If you select Prompt, the first time
that the control is required by a Contact Center Manager Administration
component a message box appears prompting you to accept the control.
8 Under the Downloads heading, ensure that Enable is selected for the
following:
Automatic prompting for file downloads
File download
9 Under the Miscellaneous heading, ensure that Enable is selected for
Allow Websites to open windows without address or status bars.
(Applicable to Internet Explorer 7.0 only)

example, http://<Contact Center Manager Administration Server Name>.
If you used the fully qualified domain name in the SOAP Configuration
Parameters window when you installed Contact Center Manager
Administration on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, then
you must also add this name as a Trusted Site. Type the fully qualified
domain name in the Add this Web site to the zone box.
19 Click Add.
20 In the Add this Web site to the zone box, type about:blank.
21 Click Add.
This ensures that the about:blank URL is not blocked by Internet Explorer

If you plan to install SU04 or later, this step is not required and you can proceed
to Step 58. “Accept the license agreement in Server Utility” on page 599.
If you run the client browser on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server, SOAP is already installed on the server. Therefore, you can skip this step
and proceed to Step 58. “Accept the license agreement in Server Utility” on
page 599.
If you plan to install a release earlier than SU04, for Contact Center Manager
Administration to function correctly, you must install a software package
containing Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) components. You must
perform this installation on every client PC that accesses the Contact Center
Manager Administration server and that runs any one of the following operating
systems:
Windows Server 2003
Windows XP
Windows 2000 Professional
Some Internet Explorer versions require the Internet Explorer setting Automatic
prompting for file downloads in the Downloads section also to be set to Enable
for the Trusted Sites zone, to allow the SOAP files download prompt to be
displayed.
Only users who log on to the client PC with administrator privileges can install
the software. If a user without administrator privileges logs on to the client PC,
that user can download and save the ClientSOAP.msi file to the client PC hard
drive. An administrator can then install the software later by double-clicking this
file. However, note that you cannot use Contact Center Manager Administration
until the client SOAP software is installed.
You need to perform this installation once only on each client PC, regardless of
the number of Contact Center Manager Administration upgrades you install
afterward.
1 On the client PC, open Internet Explorer.
2 In the Address box, type the server name. For example, http://<Contact
Center Manager Administration Server Name>.
3 Press Enter.
Result: The Contact Center Manager Administration server displays the
Contact Center Manager main logon window, and then a warning message
appears, notifying you that you must install SOAP 3.0 on the client PC.
4 Click OK.
Result: A message box appears, enabling you to download the SOAP
package.
8 Click Install.
Result: The Installing SOAP window appears.
The program installs the required SOAP components. When it finishes, the
InstallShield Wizard Completed window appears.
9 Click Finish.
If you install Windows Vista on the client, users cannot view online help for
Agent Desktop Displays. To view online help, you must download and install
Windows update KB917607 on to each client. This update includes the
WinHlp32.exe file, which is required to view WinHelp help files, such as Agent
Desktop Display online Help.
If you have no plans to install Windows Vista, you can proceed to Step
57. “Install .NET Framework v. 1.1 (optional)” on page 596.
The .NET Framework Version 1.1 and .NET Service Pack 1 must be installed on
the client machines before you can run an application such as the Agent Desktop
application or the Outbound Campaign Management Tool.
You cannot install two different language versions of the .NET Framework on
the same machine. If you want to view .NET Framework applications in a
different language, you must download the appropriate language version of
the .NET Framework language pack.
You also need to add the Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers
that are administered by Contact Center Manager Administration. For details
about installing the Contact Center Multimedia server, see the Contact Center
Multimedia Installation and Maintenance Guide. For details about adding the
Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers administered by Contact
Center Manager Administration using the Configuration component, see the
Contact Center Manager - Administrator’s Guide.
If you are not using the Outbound Campaign Management Tool component, you
can skip this step and proceed directly to Step 58. “Accept the license agreement
in Server Utility” on page 599.
5 Verify that the version is 1.1.4322. If this version is not correct, you must
install the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
6 Click Close.
7 Close the Add and Remove Programs window.
If you install or upgrade Contact Center Manager Server, you must accept the
licence agreement on the Server Utility on the Contact Center Manager Server
before you can log on to the Contact Center Manager Administration server. If
you do not upgrade or perform a new installation of Contact Center Manager
Server, you can skip the procedure and proceed to Step 59. “Log on to CCMA
for the first time,” on page 601.
2 Enter the sysadmin user ID, and password, and the server name or IP
address in the boxes.
3 Click OK.
Result: The End User License Agreement window appears.
After you install and configure the required third-party software on the client PC
(Internet Explorer version 6.0 with the latest supported service pack and SOAP
3.0), log on to Contact Center Manager Administration to test the installation.
To perform the procedures in this chapter, you must be able to log on to the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. If you upgrade or perform a new
installation of Contact Center Manager Server, you must accept the licence
agreement on the Server Utility in Contact Center Manager Server before you
can log on to the Contact Center Manager Administration server. For details
about accepting the license agreement in Server Utility, see Step 58. “Accept
the license agreement in Server Utility,” on page 599.
ATTENTION
When you change the webadmin password, you
must ensure that you do not lose or forget the new
password or you cannot log on to Contact Center
Manager Administration as the webadmin
administrator. In this case, you must uninstall and
reinstall Contact Center Manager Administration to
reinstate the original webadmin user account with
the default password.
Tip: To avoid this scenario, immediately after
installing Contact Center Manager Administration,
log on to the Contact Center Manager Administration
server as webadmin, and create a new administrator
account of your choice (for example, tempadmin),
giving this user account Access and Partition
Management rights. This way, if you lose or forget
your new webadmin password, you can still log on to
the Contact Center Manager Administration server as
tempadmin and change the webadmin password. For
more information about adding Contact Center
Manager Administration users, see the online Help.
Result:
If you do not configure the Contact Center Manager Administration
server name as Trusted Site with the relevant Active X Download values
selected, the Trusted Sites Warning Message window appears. For

Note: If the value Unknown appears in the IP Address box, then the server
name is not registered with either the Domain Name Service (DNS) or the
HOSTS table. In this case, you must update your DNS or host file on the
Contact Center Manager Administration server with the name of the
Contact Center Manager Server. For details, see the Contact Center
Manager Administration Technical Requirements and Operating System
Configuration Guide for the co-resident server.
13 In the Display Name box, type the name of the Contact Center Manager
Server as you want it to appear in the system tree in Contact Center
Manager. You must use the server name, not the IP address of the server,
as using an IP address causes errors in Real-Time Reporting functionality.
Note: The system automatically assigns a display name that is the same as
the server name. If you want to enter a different display name, it must be a
unique name.
14 Enter the sysadmin username and password for the Contact Center
Manager Server.
Note: If you get a log-in sequence error message, check your username
and password by logging on to Server Utility.

For a list of the controls required by each component, see “Controls that are
downloaded to the client PC” on page 609.
Both regular Windows users and domain users who log on to client PCs running
either Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 Professional
must have an ID that is part of the Power Users group on the client PC to
successfully download and install many of the controls required by Contact
Center Manager Administration. A user with administrator privileges must first
install client SOAP on the client PCs.
For information about adding these users to the Power Users group, consult
Microsoft Windows Help in the appropriate operating system. After the required
controls are successfully downloaded to the client PC by a user with
administrator privileges, users who are not members of the Power Users group
or users who do not have administrator privileges can use all Contact Center
Manager Administration components on the client PC to which they are granted
access.
2 On the General tab, under the Temporary Internet files heading, click
Settings.
Result: The Settings window appears.
Controls downloaded using the ActiveX Controls.msi file does not appear in
the Internet Explorer Downloaded Program Files window.
Deleting controls
You can delete any of the controls from the list of installed controls on the client
PC. However, note that if Internet Explorer uses the control, you need to close
the browser and reopen it before the system allows you to delete the control.
A user with administrator privileges can log on to each client PC, connect
to the Contact Center Manager Administration server, and can
automatically download all required controls by opening all applicable
components and windows that require these controls.
For those users who have a central management tool in their network, such
as a Systems Management Server (SMS), Nortel bundled the required
controls into a single file called ActiveX Controls.msi. You can use the
SMS server to run this file and silently install all the required controls on all
the SMS clients, regardless of the level of user who logged on to the PC.
For details, see “Running the ActiveX Controls.msi file from an SMS
server” on page 615.
If you do not have an SMS server, a user with administrator privileges can
launch the ActiveX Controls.msi file on each client PC individually to
install all the required controls at once (without having to log on to Contact
Center Manager Administration). For details, see “Running the ActiveX
Controls.msi file on each client PC” on page 617.
Both regular Windows users and domain users who log on to client PCs running
either Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 Professional
must have an ID that is part of the Power Users group on the client PC to
successfully download and install many of the controls required by Contact
Center Manager Administration. (A user with administrator privileges must first
install client SOAP on the client PCs.) For information about adding these users
to the Power Users group, consult Microsoft Windows Help in the appropriate
operating system.
If you install Windows Vista on the client PCs, to push out the
ActiveX Controls.msi file to client PCs using an SMS server or Group Policy,
you need elevated administrator privileges.
Controls downloaded using the ActiveX Controls.msi file does not appear in the
Internet Explorer Downloaded Program Files window.

The Agent Desktop Display tabular format appears as a window with several
columns. This window can be moved, minimized, resized, closed, or set to
always stay on top of the desktop like any standard Microsoft window.
The application continually verifies that the agent is logged on to the server in
Contact Center Manager Server by checking with the Contact Center Manager
Administration server once every minute. It also checks the list of skillsets that
are assigned to the logged-on agent once every 3 minutes and updates the
display accordingly.
Notes:
If the client operating system is Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or
Windows 2000, then you must be logged on to the PC as a user with
Administrator privileges to install or upgrade Agent Desktop Display. This
also applies if you are installing the client portion of Agent Desktop
Display on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
For information about upgrading Agent Desktop Display from Release 4.0
to 4.5, see the Symposium Web Client Planning, Installation, and
Administration Guide for Release 4.5/SU05.
If you choose not to upgrade your Agent Desktop Display software, you
can continue to use Agent Desktop Display Release 4.5 with Symposium
Web Client 4.5 and Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0. However,
you cannot access any of the new Agent Desktop Display features that are
available only in Release 6.0.
If you are going to use Agent Desktop Display on a client PC that connects to
multiple Contact Center Manager Administration servers, then you must ensure
that each Contact Center Manager Administration server has the same version of
Contact Center Manager Administration installed.
Depending on your network security policy, you can install the setup.exe file
directly to the client PC or download the setup.exe file to a shared network
location and install the setup.exe from the shared network location.
4 From the list, choose the language in which you want to install or upgrade
Agent Desktop Display. You can choose from English, French, German,
Japanese, and Traditional Chinese.
Note: If you are connecting to a co-resident server to use Agent Desktop
Display, then you cannot use French or German. If the server also contains
Communication Control Toolkit, then you can use only English.

Upgrade overview
In this chapter
Overview 636
Supported co-resident configuration 643
Supported co-resident upgrade procedures 645
Overview
This chapter describes the supported upgrade paths to Contact Center Manager
Server and other important information to consider before you perform the
upgrade.
For migrations and upgrades, you must select the same switch type on the new
server that is associated with the old server. For example, if you have a co-
resident 5.0 configuration with a CS 1000/Meridian 1 switch, you cannot
upgrade to a co-resident 6.0 configuration with a DMS or SIP switch.
ATTENTION
Do not uninstall SU or SUS prior to upgrading to a new
version. If you remove the SU or SUS prior to performing
the upgrade, you receive the error message “Failed to
retrieve network card information”. If you receive this
message, click OK and the installation progresses and
completes successfully.
Use the Database Restore utility to restore the database.When the database
restore is complete, the Contact Center Manager Server Database Restore utility
automatically launches the Server Setup Configuration utility. Verify the
configuration information, and then complete the configuration process.
Running the server configuration repopulates the database with Release 6.0 data.
When restoring a more recently backed-up Release 6.0 database, you do not
need to run Server Setup Configuration again.
For more information, see “Recovering a recent backup of the database” on page
2419.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important that all call
statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the
original server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure
that the original server remains offline until you install Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
If you must transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that you complete the following tasks:
1 Stop the HDM service on the live Symposium Call Center Server. The call
statistics files are stored in the file system for use on the migrated Contact
Center Manager Server.
2 Create a new database back up of Symposium Call Center Server.
3 Restore the new database backup onto the Release 6.0 server.
4 Copy the Symposium Call Center Server interval files to Contact Center
Manager Server.
5 Bring the new Release 6.0 server online. The HDM service on Contact
Center Manager Server adds the interval file data to the Contact Center
Manager Server database. The call statistics are restored.
How you actually partition your disks depends on the hardware configuration of
the server on which you are going to run the Contact Center Manager Server.
Use the disk partitioning examples in the next section as a guideline.
F (database) F (database)
G (database) G (database)
The logical disk drive letter assignment of partitioned disks on the new or
reconfigured server depends on the server type. For drive letters, see the
appropriate installation or configuration guide for the type of server to which
you are upgrading.
For example, if your original server has two database partitions (F and G), and
your new server has three database partitions (F, G, and H), you must use the
Database Expansion utility to make use of the additional partition (H). Also, if
any partitions on your new server are larger than those on the original server,
you must use the Database Expansion utility to use the additional space. For
more information, see the “Database Expansion utility” on page 2546.
For these reasons, it is good practice to perform a trial run of the Database
Integrity Check, Platform Recovery Disk creation, and database backup at least
a few days before the upgrade is scheduled. This way, any problems can be
detected and resolved ahead of time. Performing trial runs ahead of the upgrade
date enables you to estimate the time required to complete each step.
Keep in mind that the time required to do a database backup (either to a tape or a
remote directory) can vary between the trial run and the actual backup day due
to several factors. For example, the amount of data to back up and the amount of
customer network traffic can change from day to day.
Contact types
Contact types are the media types by which (inbound) contacts arrive into a
Contact Center and by which a Contact Center sends (outbound) contacts.
Default Skillset
contact type prefix Description Supported on
When you upgrade, the contact types previously assigned to skillsets are
maintained following the upgrade. If you want to modify the skillset name or the
assigned contact type (skillset prefix), you must delete the skillset and recreate
it.
Example
If you have an EM_sales skillset that is for voice only, it remains exactly the
same following the upgrade. If you want to create new EM_ skillsets, the new
skillsets are for e-mail contact types NOT voice.
You can create EM_ skillsets only on an Open Queue enabled server. If your
server is NOT Open Queue enabled, you cannot create new EM_ skillsets.
This section provides matrixes for the co-resident server and for the order in
which you can install the components on the co-resident server.
In Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 or later, you can install the
following software on the same server:
Contact Center Manager Server
License Manager
Contact Center Manager Administration
Communication Control Toolkit (only if Contact Center Manager
Administration is already installed on the server)
Server Utility
LinkPlexer (for use with Communication Server 2x00/DMS switch)
You can install only the Communication Control Toolkit on a server on which
you already installed Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center
Manager Administration. You cannot install Communication Control Toolkit on
the server if you do not have both Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration installed.
ATTENTION
For migrations and upgrades, you must select the same
switch type on the new configuration that is associated with
the old configuration. For example, if you have a co-
resident 5.0 configuration with a Communication Server
1000/Meridian 1 PBX switch, you cannot upgrade to a co-
resident 6.0 configuration with a Communication Server
2x00/DMS or SIP switch.

Overview
In Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 or later, you can install the
following software on the same server:
Contact Center Manager Server
License Manager
Contact Center Manager Administration
Communication Control Toolkit (only if Contact Center Manager
Administration is already installed on the server)
Server Utility
LinkPlexer (for use with Communication Server 2x00/DMS switch)
You can install only the Communication Control Toolkit on a server on which
you already installed Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center
Manager Administration. You cannot install Communication Control Toolkit on
the server if you do not have both Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration installed.
ATTENTION
Do not uninstall SU or SUS prior to upgrading to a new
version. If you remove the SU or SUS prior to performing
the upgrade, you receive the error message “Failed to
retrieve network card information”. If you receive this
message, click OK and the installation progresses and
completes successfully.
Timing
The following installation times provide guidance on the time required for
software installation:
Preinstallation (including operating system installation and configuration):
5 hours
Installing the server software: 1.5 hours
Postinstallation tasks: 4 hour
These times can vary depending on the server, network infrastructure and your
confidence level with the software. The following installation times were
obtained on servers with the following specifications:
CPU: Intel Xeon 3GHz
Ram: 2.0 GB
Hard Drive: 80GB 7200 RPM SATA with no RAID configuration.
DVD Drive: Internal IDE 8X DVD-ROM
How you actually partition your disks depends on the hardware configuration of
the server on which you are going to run the Contact Center Manager Server.
Use the disk partitioning examples in the next section as a guideline.
F (database) F (database)
G (database) G (database)
The logical disk drive letter assignment of partitioned disks on the new or
reconfigured server depends on the server type. For drive letters, see the
appropriate installation or configuration guide for the type of server to which
you are upgrading.
For example, if your original server has two database partitions (F and G), and
your new server has three database partitions (F, G, and H), you must use the
Database Expansion utility to make use of the additional partition (H). Also, if
any partitions on your new server are larger than those on the original server,
you must use the Database Expansion utility to use the additional space. For
more information, see the “Database Expansion utility” on page 2546.

This section describes how to migrate the following Classic Client data to
Contact Center Manager Administration:
Filters
Historical reports
Real-Time displays
Graphical Real-Time Displays
Agent-skillset and agent-supervisor scheduled assignments
User types
This chapter also describes how to remove associated supervisors from Classic
Client.
The procedures in this chapter are required only if you have been using
Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 administered by at least one Classic Client
and plan to upgrade your Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 to Contact Center
Manager Server 6.0.
Because Contact Center Manager Server 6.0 does not support Classic Client, if
you have been using Classic Client to administer your Symposium Call Center
Server, you must migrate your Classic Client data to Contact Center Manager
Administration 6.0.
If you are a new user to Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0 and Contact
Center Manager Server and do not have any Classic Clients in your network,
you do not need to perform the procedures in this chapter.

Migrate Filters
With the filters feature, you can select the sites and resources to be included in a
network-consolidated report. After you create and save a filter, you can apply it
to both standard and private network-consolidated historical reports to view only
the information that you specify in the generated report. When you connect to a
Contact Center Manager Server and open a network-consolidated report, the
Selection Criteria area includes a list of the available network sites and any
available filters that you define and save.
You can use filters migrated from the Classic Client in Contact Center Manager
Administration. While each of the Classic Client filters contains only one type
of data – either skillsets, applications, route numbers, route names, Dialed
Number Identification Service (DNIS) numbers, or DNIS names – you can add
different types of data to these filters after you import them into Contact Center
Manager Administration by using the filters tabs in Historical Reporting.
With the Filter Set Upgrade Tool, you can reuse existing Classic Client filters.
Use the tool to:
retrieve the existing filter information from the Network Control Center
master database (MDB).
reformat and save filters in the Active Directory.
Migrating filters
1 Access the Filter Set Upgrade Tool at \\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\Reporting\Historical\dll\Rptsets.exe.
Note: This tool is used by administrator or webadmin only.
2 Input the path of the Network Control Center filter (database file) or click the
browse button to search for the file.
3 Select the appropriate file.
Result: The Path of NCC Database field is populated.
Classic Client:
Stores all user-defined and user-created reports on supervisors PCs running
Classic Client or on a network PC designated by supervisor.
Stores and controls all schedules on the Symposium Call Center Server.
These schedules trigger the running of reports on the Classic Client.
You must migrate user-created reports and user-defined reports from Classic
Client to Contact Center Manager Administration:
User-created reports are customer report templates created with Crystal
Reports and imported into Classic Client. User-created reports and their
schedules can be migrated from the Classic Client if they were created
using Crystal Reports software (version 9.0 or earlier). You can migrate the
following types of user-created reports: Historical, Configuration, and
Parameterized reports.
User-defined reports are user reports saved from the standard Classic
Client reports, such as the Agent Performance report. Contact Center
Manager Server also provides the same set of standard reports. Migrating
user-defined reports involves re-creating the report manually using the
same standard template that exists on Contact Center Manager
Administration, specifying the same criteria, and saving it.
If your reports are scheduled reports, you must schedule each report in Contact
Center Manager Administration and remove the schedule from the Symposium
Server through the Classic Client. If the schedule is not removed from the
Symposium Call Center Server, the report runs twice if the Classic Client is
installed and the report listener is running.
4. If the report is a scheduled report, delete the scheduled report from Classic
Client after you schedule the report in Contact Center Manager
Administration. For details, see “Deleting a report schedule from Classic
Client” on page 685.
5. Delete the user-defined report from the Symposium Call Center Server. For
details, “Deleting user-defined or user-created reports from Classic Client”
on page 686.
2 Select the Contact Center Manager Server from which you want to run the
report (for example, the Galway server).
Result: The server expands to reveal a choice between public, private, and
any group folders created.
4 Click Next.
5 (Optional) Select the Synchronize report template from the network
drive check box.
Notes:
If this box is selected at the time of import, the Contact Center Manager
Administration server synchronizes the user-created reports from the
source network drive every time you modify the report using Crystal
Reports on the network drive. This means if you modify your source
report template on the network drive/PC, you do not need to import the
report to the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
12 Click Finish.
Result: The report is added to the list in the Reports window.
Notes:
If you select the Configuration option, you do not need to specify an
alias.
To determine the alias of a database, open the report in Crystal Reports
and choose Database > Set Alias.
The Timestamp field is not required for a configuration report.
4 Double-click Scheduler.
Result: All of the reports currently scheduled are displayed. Make note of
the reports and their schedules for migration.
Schedule reports
For more information about scheduling reports, see the Contact Center Manager
Supervisor’s Guide.
ATTENTION
The schedule time that you specify is based on the
time zone that you choose. However, the system
translates the schedule time that you enter to the time
zone in which the Contact Center Manager
Administration server is located. The report is
generated at the time and in the time zone you specify,
but the timestamp at the bottom of the generated
report reflects the Contact Center Manager
Administration server time. For more information about
time zones, see the Supervisor’s Reference Guide for
Symposium Web Client 4.5. This document is posted
on the Web site www.nortel.com.
You can also specify one or more e-mail addresses to which the system can send
notification that the report has been generated successfully, or that there were
problems preventing the report from being generated. If the system cannot
generate the report, the e-mail notification contains possible reasons for the
failure, enabling you to repair the problem and generate the report again.
If you choose to print the report to a file, you must specify a shared folder to
which the Contact Center Manager Administration server sends the output file.
This folder can be on your computer, on another computer in the network, or on
the Contact Center Manager Administration server. If the folder that you specify
is on a computer other than the Contact Center Manager Administration server,
the computer must be within the same domain as the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
If you want to send a scheduled report to a printer, ensure that your
administrator has configured a default printer on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server. If a default printer has not been defined, then you can
send reports only to a file.
1 Select the print check box.
OR
Select output to file check box.
OR
Select both check boxes.
2 To print the report:
from the Printer list, select the printer to which you want to print the
scheduled report.
From the Paper Size list, select the appropriate paper size for the
printed report.
3 To send the report to a file, in the Output box, type the path to the shared
output folder. The path must have the format \\[computer name]\[shared
folder name]\[file name], without the file extension.
For example, to send the Agent Performance report to a shared folder on
the Contact Center Manager Administration server where the server
computer name is appsrvr, the shared folder name is reports, and the
report name is agent, in the Output box, type \\appsrvr\reports\agent.
4 Select the Save file under different name each time check box to save
the report with a different name each time it is generated. If you leave this
check box clear, the system overwrites previously generated reports with
the updated versions every time a report is generated.
5 From the Format list, select the export file format to use.
6 Select the Send notification e-mail to check box to receive notification of
when the report is generated.
7 Enter one or more e-mail addresses in the box. You can type a maximum of
255 characters in the box with each e-mail address separated by a semi-
colon (;).
8 Click Save Report.
Result: The report is saved.
9 Click Activate.
Result: The report schedule is activated.

This section applies only if you are using a tape drive to back up and restore
your database. If you are using a remote directory, you can skip this step.
ATTENTION
When you perform an upgrade, you must create a database
backup of your original server and restore it on the Release
6.0 server. You can use either a tape drive or a remote
directory on a network computer to back up and restore
your database. If you choose the tape option, before
creating the backup, you must ensure that the tape drive and
driver software on your Release 6.0 server can read the data
on the backup tape from the original server. Otherwise, you
cannot restore your database and the migration installation
fails.

You can use Contact Center Manager Administration to administer Symposium
Call Center Server 5.0 SUS0504 (or later) in your network, but you cannot use
Symposium Web Client 4.5 to administer Contact Center Manager Server 6.0.
To administer Contact Center Manager Server 6.0, you must upgrade the
Contact Center Manager Administration server to Release 6.0 of Contact Center
Manager Administration.
Nortel recommends that you perform full backups during periods of low
activity.
For details about creating full backups of the application server, see Microsoft
documentation or the documentation of the third-party backup tool of your
choice.
CAUTION
You must create a backup of the individual Symposium Web Client data files,
including Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)
Nortel recommends that you back up the individual Symposium Web Client
files in addition to performing a full backup of the Symposium Web Client
server because this creates a more manageable backup file containing only the
Symposium Web Client data files that need to be restored in the event of an
upgrade failure in which you must restore the Symposium Web Client data files,
but not the entire operating system.
The Symposium Web Client data files to back up include the following:
Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)
Historical report data
Real-Time display snapshots
Emergency Help snapshots
Schedule data
CAUTION
Choose a tape device if you want to back up files and folders to a tape.
Note: If you have a supported tape backup drive that is detected by
Backup, it appears at the bottom of the Backup destination for the backup
window. If you do not have a tape drive, or your tape drive is not supported
or detected, you can select a floppy disk drive or a location on your hard
disk.
If you want to back up your files to a network drive, you must map a drive
letter to the network destination to which you want to back up your files. If
you map a drive letter to a network drive, Backup displays it in the Backup
destination for the backup window.
7 In Backup media or file name, do one of the following:
If you are backing up files and folders to a file, type a path and file name
for the backup (.bkf) file, or click the Browse button to find a file.
If you are backing up files and folders to a tape, choose the tape you
want to use.

ATTENTION
Before you perform the database integrity check, ensure no
active Symposium Call Center Server client connections to
the server on which you are performing the check. If client
PCs connect to the server while the check is running, errors
can result and you need to perform the check again.
Remember that a database integrity check can take from 1 to 3 hours, and that
the server must be offline during the check. You can perform the check ahead of
time, but make it as close as possible to the time of the database backup.
Follow the next procedure to perform a database integrity check on the original
Release 5.0 server.
Symposium Call Center Server is shut down while the database integrity check
is running.
4 Click OK.
Result: The system displays messages as it checks the status of each
service running on the server.
8 Click OK.
9 Click Close to close the Platform Migration Utility window.
10 Check the database check log (C:\DbChk.log) for database errors. To do
this, use a text editor (such as Notepad).
When you check the log file, search for key words such as ERROR or
MSG. Contact your Nortel customer support representative for any
detected database error. Do not put the server into service if any detected
database errors exist, even though it can seem to operate normally.
Note: If you do not plan to reuse the remote directory backup on your
Release 5.0 server for future backups (if you plan to use tape backups),
delete the user account you created for this purpose after you complete the
upgrade. Unshare the directory on the network computer.
11 Restart the server. From the Start menu, choose All Programs >
Symposium Call Center Server > Startup.
Create a backup of the database of the original server so you can restore it on the
Release 6.0 server. The original server remains online while the database is
backed up. However, consider the following information before you proceed
with the backup:
An online backup adds an additional load to the server and reduces overall
Contact Center performance. Nortel recommends that you perform backups
during non-peak traffic hours. Do not change any Contact Center
configuration or user setup information during the database backup
operation.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call
statistics and data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important
that all call statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0
server, take the original server offline immediately following the
database backup. Ensure that the original server remains offline until
you install Release 6.0 and successfully migrate the database back to
the same server.
rbackup.txt This file contains details about the user name, password, and path
used when you perform a database backup to a remote directory.
dbseg.txt This file contains information about the data and log segments in
your database.
dbdvc.txt This file contains information about the size and location of your
database files.
To help you calculate space requirements before you back up the database, see
details about the DBSpace utility in the section “Calculating the capacity
requirements for database backups” on page 2361.
The following section explains the requirements for the remote computer and
network.
Network requirements
The remote computer must be on the same network as the server in Contact
Center Manager Server.
The network connection can be through the Nortel server subnet. Ensure
that the Nortel server subnet has low traffic during the scheduled time for
the database backup. If you run the backup when Nortel server subnet
traffic is high, the database backup can take longer than planned.
User name
You must create a name and assign it to two user
accounts—one on the network computer and the
other on your Release 6.0 server. The names must be
identical on both computers.
The following procedures do not provide detailed steps, since they differ
depending on the operating system on your network computer.
3 Right-click on the Users folder, and then select New User from the
resulting menu.
Result: The New User dialog box appears.

can also unshare the directory on the network computer.
14 Check whether any events are recorded in the event log on the client PC
from which you scheduled the backup. If there are any errors, check the
database backup log files on the server. These files are located at the
following paths: C:\Winnt\System32\backup.log and
D:\Sybase\ASE-12_0\install\backup.log.
To see sample time measurements for tape backup and restore, see
“Requirements for backups” on page 2353.

As hot fixes for known issues with third-party software (for example, Sybase,
Crystal, and Windows) become available, Nortel provides them in a folder
located on the Contact Center Manager installation DVD.
After you install Contact Center Manager Administration, you must install all
required hot fixes in the Contact Center Manager Administration Hot Fix folder
to ensure that Contact Center Manager Administration functions correctly.
Install the required applicable updates for Contact Center Manager Server,
Server Utility and License Manager. You can obtain Service Updates and
Service Update Supplements as follows:
All SU packs and SUSs are available on the Enterprise Solutions PEP
Library Web sites located at www.nortel.com/espl. To register for this Web
site, follow the instructions provided at www.nortel.com/register.
Any SU packs and SUSs that are available at the time of shipping are
included on the DVD with your software.
You must read the readme file associated with each Service Update that you
plan to install.
6 If you receive a prompt to view the Readme file, click Yes. Review the
readme file and then continue with the installation of the SU.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
7 Click Yes.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
8 Click Next.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
9 Click Install.
Result: The system installs the patch on the server, and then the following
dialog box appears.
10 Click Finish.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
11 Click Yes.
Result: The SU is installed.
It is available from the Nortel Web site (www.nortel.com/espl) or you can obtain
it from your Nortel customer support representative.
You must read the readme file associated with each Service Update that you
plan to install. Follow the instructions in the Readme file to install this patch.
This step includes procedures for downloading and applying the latest Service
Update and Service Update Supplements for Contact Center Manager Server
from www.nortel.com/espl.
For example, if SU01, SUS0101, SUS0102 are released, SU02 contains SU01,
SUS0101, and SUS0102.
ATTENTION
When you install the latest Service Update, note the
Administrator account with which you log on to the server.
If you have multiple Administrator accounts, ensure that
you always use the same account to install or uninstall
Service Updates, Service Update Supplements, and
Designer Patches on the server. If you install an update
with one account, and then try to install the next update or
uninstall the current patch while logged on as a different
account, the installation or uninstall fails.
Installation of SU02 and SUS0201 fails if the
ServerSoapName key in the registry is greater than 24
characters. In this scenario, the License Manager Service does
not start, and the Service Update installation fails. The
ServerSoapName value exceeds 24 characters when your site
references the Contact Center Manager Administration fully
qualified domain name in the SOAP files, and you enter a
URL of more than 24 characters in the SOAP Configuration
Parameters window during the Contact Center Manager
Administration installation. For information about
troubleshooting this issue, see the Contact Center Manager
Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
Before you install the Service Update or Service Update Supplement, Nortel
recommends that you verify the patch level currently installed on the server by
launching the Patch Viewer utility. On the server, click Start > All Programs >
Nortel Contact Center > Manager Administration > Patch Viewer. You cannot
install a patch that is older than an update that is already installed. Likewise, you
cannot install a Service Update Supplement unless the applicable Service
Update is installed.
To download and apply the latest Service Update, you must have a program
installed that can open and extract files with the .zip extension (for example,
WinZip).
7 Click Yes to read the file, or No to proceed directly with the installation.
Note:
The readme file can contain important information about the update that
you install, such as a list of dependent patches, any pre- or
postinstallation tasks that you need to perform, or the need to stop any
services manually. Nortel recommends that you read the file before
installing the patch.
If you attempt to install an older version of a Service Update or Service
Update Supplement than that which is currently installed on the server,
the installation is halted, and a notification window appears. Click
Cancel to exit the installation. If you require the older Service Update,
you must manually uninstall the newer patch, and then run the
installation for the older patch again.
8 Click Next.
Result: The Ready to Install window appears.
Note:
If you are installing a new Service Update on a server that contains an
existing Service Update and perhaps some Service Update
Supplements, the system removes these patches before installing the
new one. The Installed patches found window appears, listing the
current installed patches.
Click Next to remove the patches. When the system finishes removing
the patches, the installation of the new patch proceeds. See step 9.
The Files in Use window appears if files are open that the installation
program needs to update. You must close the files shown in the
window, and then click Retry to continue with the upgrade.

5 Click OK.
6 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
The Use Login Warning Message setting is server-specific.
If the Contact Center Manager Server is part of a networked
Contact Center, this setting needs to be set on each Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
The IP multicast address that the server in Contact Center Manager Server uses
to send data must be configured on Contact Center Manager Server. This
address is listed in the IP Multicast Group box.
The unicast communication option applies only between the Contact Center
Manager Administration server and the client PCs. Because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server receives all the raw data from each server in
Contact Center Manager Server through multicast channels, this network
segment must always be multicast-enabled.
If you choose, at a later date, to multicast-enable your entire network, you can
do so without upgrading Contact Center Manager Administration.
This type of data transmission enables users to view nodal Real-Time Displays,
network-consolidated Real-Time Displays, Agent Desktop Display, and
Emergency Help notifications on the client PCs.
Real-Time displays viewed on one client PC that use the same data stream share
a single connection to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (for
example, a standard agent display and a private agent display both use the agent
moving window stream and can share a single unicast connection). Therefore,
for n client displays of different statistical types, n separate data streams in
operation, which introduces additional traffic on the network.
If a client opens a collection display (six displays in one screen), several unicast
channels are opened from the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
the client computer, one for each statistic type in the collection.
Agent Desktop Display and Emergency Help notifications are not available on
client PCs that receive only unicast data.
4 In the IP Receive Address and IP Send Address boxes, type the correct
address information.
Note: The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending and
receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and 239.255.255.255 range. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast addresses for
your specific network.
5 Accept the default values in the Output Rate box (5000) and the Transform
Rate box (1000). You can adjust the default values; however, reducing the
Output Rate value and the Transform Rate value increases the workload
on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
Note: The fastest rate at which multicast data from Contact Center
Manager Server reaches the end user in Contact Center Manager
Administration is equal to the highest value among the following settings:
the Multicast Rate at which data is sent from Contact Center Manager
Server to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (For more
information about Multicast Rates, see the Nortel Contact Center
Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.)
the Output Rate at which the Contact Center Manager Administration
server sends data to client PCs
Example
If the Contact Center Manager Server Multicast Rate is set to 2
seconds, the Contact Center Manager Administration server Transform
Rate is set to 1 second, and the Contact Center Manager Administration
server Output Rate is 7 seconds, then the data on the client PC cannot
refresh faster than every 7 seconds, regardless of the refresh rate that
the user chose in Real-Time Reporting.
If you want to decrease the length of time required for real-time statistics
to reach client PCs, you can decrease the Output Rate and Transform
Rate values; however, this impacts performance on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Notify users of the Real-Time Reporting
component of these rates so they can adjust the refresh rate
accordingly. For more information about adjusting rates and assessing
performance, see the Capacity Assessment Tool (CapTool) chapter of
the Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
6 Accept the default value in the OAM Timeout box (10000).
7 Nortel recommends that you leave the Compress Realtime Data Packets
check box selected, which is the default setting. If you clear this check
mark, then you disable real-time data packet compression.
8 In the Transmission Options area, click the button beside the transmission
mode that is required for the site. Choose one of the following:
Multicast only if your network supports multicast traffic (recommended),
and proceed to step 11.
Unicast only if you do not want any multicast traffic on your network,
and proceed to step 9.
Multicast and Unicast if you want to support both transmission types,
and proceed to step 9.
Result: If you select either Unicast or Multicast and Unicast, the Maximum
Unicast Sessions area appears at the lower section of the window.
Note: The value that you type in this box is used to limit the number of
client sessions and, as a result, the network bandwidth usage. Since each
open display adds CPU load on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, and adds to the overall bandwidth usage on the
network, you must limit the number of client sessions by typing the number
in this box. After this limit is reached, no further unicast real-time
connections are accepted until one of the existing streams is closed. An
error message is logged on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server to indicate the limit is reached, and a message appears on the client
indicating that the connection is not allowed. For guidance on entering the
appropriate value, see the Contact Center Manager Administration
Technical Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.
10 Click the Restart Real Time Reporting Service check box to select it.
11 Click OK.
Result: The Restart ICERtdService status window appears while the
service is restarting, and closes after the service restarts successfully.
12 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Real-Time
Reporting Configuration settings whenever these settings
are changed (for example, after installing or upgrading
Contact Center Manager Administration). If you need to
restore your Contact Center Manager Administration data,
you must reconfigure these settings manually.
The Emergency Help component only functions if you are using the multicast
communication method from the Contact Center Manager Administration server
to the client PC.
If you are configuring a replicating server, you must ensure that the Emergency
Help Configuration settings on the replicating server match the Emergency Help
Configuration settings on the primary server.

that the Contact Center Manager Administration server uses to send Real-
Time Reporting and Agent Desktop Display data to client PCs.
6 Click the Restart Emergency Help Service check box.
7 Click OK.
Result: The system restarts Emergency Help.
8 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Emergency
Help Configuration settings whenever these settings are

your Contact Center Manager Administration data, you
must reconfigure these settings manually.
Option 1—You can create a shared folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server for exporting scheduled reports.
Option 2—You can create a shared folder on the client PC for exporting
scheduled reports.
Granting change and read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is
iceAdmin or domain account) provides only a higher level of security. However,
granting change and read permissions to the Everyone group provides more
flexibility because Contact Center Manager Administration users can download
exported report output files from the shared folder without special permissions.
Choose the option that is most appropriate for the security policy of your
organization.
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
scheduled report account (that is, iceAdmin or domain account), follow
these steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server
that stores the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is,
iceAdmin or domain account) on the folder
2. To create a shared folder with change and read permissions to Everyone
account on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, follow these
steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server
that stores the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Right-click on the target folder and grant change/read permissions to
Everyone.
For example, to export scheduled report files to the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, in the Output box on the Report Properties window, type
the path to the shared folder where the report is sent. The path must have the
format \\<Contact Center Manager Administration server name>\<shared
folder name>\<file name>, without the file extension. That is, if the Contact
Center Manager Administration server computer name is appsrvr, the shared
folder name is reports, and you decide to call the report agent, type
\\appsrvr\reports\agent in the Output box.
Scheduled reports use the local administrator account named iceAdmin or the
domain account set up by the administrator in the iceAdmin Password Change
Utility to run, print and export the scheduled report.
The reports are exported locally to the shared folder on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Contact Center Manager Administration users
require read permission on the Contact Center Manager Administration's shared
folder to copy the exported report files to their desktops/client PCs.
To enable users to access the saved report file, you must grant each user
read/delete access rights to this folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server (or alternately, create separate shared folders with read/
delete access for each applicable user). For details about configuring user access
privileges, see the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.
Scheduled Report
Contact Center Manager Account (using Steps required to export
Administration Server iceAdmin Password scheduled report to
Configuration Change Utility) client PC
Scheduled Report
Contact Center Manager Account (using Steps required to export
Administration Server iceAdmin Password scheduled report to
Configuration Change Utility) client PC
You can export only scheduled reports to client PCs that are within the same
domain as the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
To export scheduled reports to the client PC, you must first create a shared
folder on the client PC, and grant change and read permissions to the scheduled
reports account group (that is, iceAdmin or the domain account set up by the
administrator using the iceAdmin Password Change Utility).
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
iceAdmin account, follow these steps:
Click Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users
and Groups > Users.
Create a new user iceAdmin with the same password as on Contact
Center Manager Administration server
Create a folder on the client PC to store the exported scheduled report
file from the Contact Center Manager Administration scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the local iceAdmin account on the
folder
This option cannot work when the client PC is outside the domain of the Contact
Center Manager Administration server. In this scenario, you must add the client
PC to the network domain of the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
To export scheduled report files to a client PC, in the Output box on the Report
Properties window, type the path to the shared folder to which the report is sent.
The path must have the format \\<client PC computer name>\<shared folder
name>\<file name>, without the file extension. Alternatively, you can use the
Browse button to select your shared folder for export file.
For example, to export the Agent Performance report to a shared folder on the
client PC where the client PC computer name is clientpc, the shared folder name
is reports, and the report name is agent, type \\clientpc\reports\agent in the
Output box.
For details about configuring user access privileges, see the Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 documentation. If you require additional information about creating
and mapping folders, see your Microsoft documentation.
However, if you make changes to the original report on the network computer
after you import it into Contact Center Manager Administration, these changes
are not reflected in the imported report unless you select Synchronize report
template from the network drive in the template importing wizard. If you select
this value when importing the report, then, when you subsequently run the
imported report in Contact Center Manager Administration (either as needed or
scheduled), the system checks the network folder in which the original report is
stored to see if any changes are made to it. If the original report changed, the
system synchronizes these changes with the imported report before running it.
This process is automatic and invisible to the user.
If you made changes to several original reports after importing them into
Contact Center Manager Administration, you can manually synchronize the
changes with the imported reports all at once by using the Synchronize User
Imported Report Templates window in Contact Center Manager Administration.
In this window, when you click Submit, the system synchronizes the changes
that you made to all original reports stored in shared folders on a client PC with
the copies stored on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
However, because this can be a lengthy process (based on the number of
reports), and to avoid corrupting any existing reports, Nortel recommends that
you do so only when no reports are running (either as needed or scheduled).
Before you can use the report synchronization feature, you must set up the
shared folder on the client PC with the appropriate access privileges according
to the security policy for your organization.
ATTENTION
When the Contact Center Manager Administration server
is part of a network domain, the user imported reports
(only when run as scheduled reports) cannot be
synchronized automatically because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server account that is used for
scheduled reports, iceAdmin, cannot have access to the
network directory. In this scenario, to synchronize the
affected user imported reports, follow the procedure “To
manually synchronize changes made to user imported
templates” in the Contact Center Manager Administration
online Help, or run the report as needed whenever the
original report template is modified on the source
network location.

database when your new Release 6.0 server is ready to go live. For example, if
you upgrade from Contact Center Manager Server Release 4.2 to Release 6.0,
but keep the original Release 4.2 server active, then when your Release 6.0
server goes live, you can restore a more recently backed-up database. You do
not need to perform another migration.
Before you restore a more recently backed-up database, ensure that you note the
sysadmin password you used during the original database restore. If you made a
change to this password you must edit the properties page on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server to reflect the new sysadmin password.
Use the Database Restore utility to perform the database restore.When the
database restore is complete, the Contact Center Manager Server Database
Restore utility automatically launches the Server Setup Configuration utility.
Verify the configuration information, and then complete the configuration
process. Running the server configuration repopulates the database with Release
6.0 data.
When restoring a more recently backed-up Release 6.0 database, you do not
need to run Server Setup Configuration again.
For more information, see “Recovering a recent backup of the database” on page
2419.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important that all call
statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the
original server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure
that the original server remains offline until you install Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
If you need to transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that you complete the following tasks.
1. Stop the HDM service on the live Symposium Call Center Server. The call
statistics files are stored in the file system for use on the migrated Contact
Center Manager Server.
2. Create a new database back up of Symposium Call Center Server.
3. Restore the new database backup onto the Release 6.0 server.
4. Copy the Symposium Call Center Server interval files to Contact Center
Manager Server.
5. Bring the new Release 6.0 server online. The HDM service on Contact
Center Manager Server adds the interval file data to the Contact Center
Manager Server database. The call statistics are restored.
If you are adding LinkPlexer to your configuration, see the following section for
installation procedures. For LinkPlexer server requirements, see the Nortel
Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.

Step 71. Log on to Contact Center Manager Administration 1121
Step 72. Download controls to the client 1127
Step 73. Upgrade Agent Desktop Display on agent workstations 1138
Step 74. Configure active and standby servers for ADD (optional) 1142
Before you upgrade the client PCs to Release 6.0 of the Agent Desktop Display
software, ensure that all client PCs meet the minimum requirements for this
Release. For details, see the Contact Center Manager Administration Technical
Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.
If you install Windows Vista on the client, users cannot view online help for
Agent Desktop Displays. To view online help, you must download and install
Windows update KB917607 on to each client. This update includes the
WinHlp32.exe file, which is required to view WinHelp help files, such as Agent
Desktop Display online Help.
If you have no plans to install Windows Vista, you can proceed to Step
70. “Install .NET Framework v. 1.1 (optional)” on page 1118.
The .NET Framework version 1.1 and .NET service pack 1 must be installed on
the client machines before you can run an application such as the Agent Desktop
application or the Outbound Campaign Management Tool.
You cannot install two different language versions of the .NET Framework on
the same machine. If you want to view .NET Framework applications in a
different language, you must download the appropriate language version of
the .NET Framework language pack.
You also need to add the Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers
that are administered by Contact Center Manager Administration. For details
about installing the Contact Center Multimedia server, see the Nortel Contact
Center Multimedia Installation and Maintenance Guide. For details about
adding the Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers administered
by Contact Center Manager Administration using the Configuration component,
see the Nortel Contact Center Manager Administrator’s Guide.
If you cannot use the Outbound Campaign Management Tool component, you
can skip this step and proceed directly to Step 71. “Log on to Contact Center
Manager Administration” on page 1121.
5 Verify that the version is 1.1.4322. If this version is not correct, you must
install the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
6 Click Close.
7 Close the Add and Remove Programs window.
After you install and configure the required third-party software on the client PC
(Internet Explorer version 6.0 with the latest supported Service Pack and SOAP
3.0), log on to Contact Center Manager Administration to test the installation.
To perform the procedures in this chapter, you must be able to log onto the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. To be able to log onto the
Contact Center Manager Administration server, you must accept the licence
agreement on the server utility.
If you upgraded your Contact Center Manager Server at the same time, you must
upgrade the license agreement in Server Utility. For details, see Step
72. “Download controls to the client” on page 1127.
You must also refresh your servers after an upgrade. For details, see Step
46. “Refresh your servers” on page 951.
ATTENTION
When you change the webadmin password, you
must ensure that you do not lose or forget the new
password or you cannot log on to Contact Center
Manager Administration as the webadmin
administrator. In this case, you must uninstall and
reinstall Contact Center Manager Administration to
reinstate the original webadmin user account with
the default password.
Tip: To avoid this scenario, immediately after
installing Contact Center Manager Administration,
log on to the Contact Center Manager Administration
server as webadmin, and create a new administrator
account of your choice (for example, tempadmin),
giving this user account Access and Partition
Management rights. This way, if you lose or forget
your new webadmin password, you can still log on to
the Contact Center Manager Administration server as
tempadmin and change the webadmin password. For
more information about adding Contact Center
Manager Administration users, see the online Help.

control is required by Contact Center Manager Administration. This dialog box
displays the name of the control, the company of origin, and prompts you to
accept the control before it is downloaded. When this dialog box is displayed,
you must choose to accept the control before the system downloads the control
to the client PC. You are only prompted to accept the control the first time that
the control is required by the Contact Center Manager Administration
component in which you are working.
For a list of the controls required by each component, see “Controls that are
downloaded to the client PC” on page 1128.
Both regular Windows users and domain users who log on to client PCs running
either Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 Professional
must have an ID that is part of the Power Users group on the client PC to

procedure involves automatically upgrading the Agent Desktop Display 4.5
client PCs to Release 6.0.
6 From the list, choose the language in which you want to upgrade Agent
Desktop Display. You can choose from English, French, German,
Japanese, and Traditional Chinese.
Note: On co-resident servers that contain Contact Center Manager Server,
Contact Center Manager Administration, and Communication Control
Toolkit, the only supported language version of the Windows Server 2003
operating system is English. If the co-resident server contains only Contact
Center Manager Server and Contact Center Manager Administration, then
it only supports English, Japanese, and Traditional Chinese.
Note: For more information about Agent Desktop Display and multiple
language support, see “Configure multiple language support in Agent
Desktop Display” on page 632.
7 Click OK.
Result: The system prepares for setup and displays the Welcome to the
InstallShield Wizard for Agent Desktop Display window.
8 Click Next.
Note: If an application is running on the client whose files must be updated
by the InstallShield, a Files in Use window appears. You must close any
applications listed in this window, and then click Retry.
Result: The system copies the necessary files, and then installation
begins. When you are upgrading from a previous version of Agent Desktop
Display, you cannot change the server IP addresses during the upgrade.
Instead, the program uses the IP addresses that you originally chose. To
change these addresses, after the client software is installed, use the
Server IP Addresses window in the application. When the upgrade is
complete, the InstallShield Wizard Completed window appears.
9 Click Finish.
Result: The system prompts you to restart your system.
10 If required by your network security policy, turn your proxy settings back on
after upgrading Agent Desktop Display.
If you have standby servers installed in your network, Agent Desktop Display
6.0 includes a new feature that lets you configure the IP address or hostname of
active and standby servers for Contact Center Manager Administration and
Contact Center Manager Server.
This feature lets agents easily switch between active and standby servers as
required by their network administrator. This simplifies the recovery procedures
in the event of a failure on the active server requiring a switchover to a standby
server.

Overview
In Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 or later, you can install the
following software on the same server:
Contact Center Manager Server
License Manager
Contact Center Manager Administration
Communication Control Toolkit (only if Contact Center Manager
Administration is already installed on the server)
Server Utility
LinkPlexer (for use with Communication Server 2x00/DMS switch)
You can install the Communication Control Toolkit only on a server on which
you already installed Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center
Manager Administration. You cannot install Communication Control Toolkit on
the server if you do not have both Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration installed.
ATTENTION
Do not uninstall SU or SUS prior to upgrading to a new
version. If you remove the SU or SUS prior to performing
the upgrade, you receive the error message “Failed to
retrieve network card information”. If you receive this
message, click OK and the installation progresses and
completes successfully.
Timing
The following installation times provide guidance on the time required for
software installation:
Preinstallation (including operating system installation and configuration):
5 hours
Installing the server software: 1.5 hours
Post-installation tasks: 4 hour
These times can vary depending on the server, network infrastructure and your
confidence level with the software. The following installation times were
obtained on servers with the following specifications:
CPU: Intel Xeon 3GHz
Ram: 1.0 GB
Hard Drive: 80GB 7200 RPM SATA with no RAID configuration.
DVD Drive: Internal IDE 8X DVD-ROM
How you actually partition your disks depends on the hardware configuration of
the server on which you are going to run the Contact Center Manager Server.
Use the disk partitioning examples in the next section as a guideline.
F (database) F (database)
G (database) G (database)
The logical disk drive letter assignment of partitioned disks on the new or
reconfigured server depends on the server type. For drive letters, see the
appropriate installation or configuration guide for the type of server to which
you are upgrading.
For example, if your original server has two database partitions (F and G), and
your new server has three database partitions (F, G, and H), you must use the
Database Expansion utility to make use of the additional partition (H). Also, if
any partitions on your new server are larger than those on the original server,
you must use the Database Expansion utility to use the additional space. For
more information, see the “Database Expansion utility” on page 2546.

Overview
When the base configuration of your new server is ready, you can perform all
the steps to upgrade to Contact Center Release 6.0.
Before you install the server software, ensure that you complete the
preinstallation tasks. For more information, see Section A:“Prepare the original
server” on page 1151.
For migrations and upgrades, you must select the same switch type on the
new configuration that is associated with the old configuration. For example,
if you have a co-resident 5.0 configuration with a Communication Server
1000/Meridian 1 PBX switch, you cannot upgrade to a co-resident 6.0
configuration with a Communication Server 2x00/DMS or SIP switch.
Use the following checklist to record information required for your Contact
Center Manager Server installation. Ensure that you refer to this checklist for

To perform a database integrity check, see Step 9. “Perform a SCCS Server 5.0
database integrity check” on page 1171.
Remember that a database integrity check can take from 1 to 3 hours, and that
the server must be offline during the check. You can perform the check ahead of
time, but make it as close as possible to the time of the database backup.
Follow the next procedure to perform a database integrity check on the original
Release 5.0 server.
ATTENTION
Before you perform the database integrity check, ensure
there are no active Symposium Call Center Server client
connections to the server on which you perform the check.
If client PCs connect to the server while the check is
running, errors can result and you need to perform the
check again.
Symposium Call Center Server is shut down while the database integrity check
is running.
4 Click OK.
Result: The system displays messages as it checks the status of each
service running on the server, and then the following dialog box appears.
7 Click OK.
8 Click Close to close the Platform Migration Utility window.
9 Use a text editor, such as Notepad, to check the database check log
(C:\DbChk.log) for database errors.
When you check the log file, search for key words such as ERROR or
MSG. Contact your Nortel customer support representative for any
detected database error. Do not put the server into service if any detected
database errors exist, even though it can seem to operate normally.
If you do not plan to reuse the remote directory backup on your Release 5.0
server for future backups (for example, if you plan to use tape backups),
delete the user account you created for this purpose after you complete the
upgrade. Unshare the directory on the network computer.
10 Restart the server. From the Start menu, choose All Programs >
Symposium Call Center Server > Server Startup.
What is next?
Proceed to Step 10. “Back up the SCCS 5.0 database on the original server” on
page 1174
Create a backup of the database of the original server so you can restore it on the
target server. The original server remains online while the database is backed up.
However, consider the following information before you proceed with the
backup:
An online backup adds an additional load to the server and reduces overall
contact center performance. Nortel recommends that you perform backups
during non-peak traffic hours. Do not change any contact center
configuration or user setup information during the database backup
operation.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call
statistics and data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important
that all call statistic and data pegging be migrated to your target server,
take the original server offline immediately following the database
backup. Ensure that the target server remains offline until you upgrade
Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 to Contact Center Manager Server
6.0 and successfully migrate the database back to the new server.
dbseg.txt This file contains information about the data and log segments in
your database.
dbdvc.txt This file contains information about the size and location of your
database files.
The following section explains the requirements for the remote computer and
network.
Network requirements
The remote computer must be on the same network as the Contact Center
Manager Server.
The network connection can be through the Nortel server subnet. Ensure that the
Nortel server subnet has low traffic during the scheduled time for the database
backup. If you run the backup when Nortel server subnet traffic is high, the
database backup can take longer than planned.
User name
You must create a name and assign it to two user
accounts—one on the network computer and the
other on your target server. The names must be
identical on both computers.
The following procedures do not provide detailed steps, since they differ
depending on the operating system on your network computer.
3 Right-click on the Users folder, and then select New User from the
resulting menu.
Result: The New User dialog box appears.
4 For the shared directory permissions, grant Full Control access rights to the
user account that you created in the previous procedure.
Result: The network computer is now set up for remote directory backups.
You must now prepare the server in Symposium Call Center Server using
the following procedures.
5 Ensure you record the computer name of the network computer in the
worksheet.
4 Click Next.
Result: The Database Backup Utility window appears.
5 In the Account box, type the account name for the remote backup location.
6 In the Password box, type the Password for the remote backup location.
7 In the Network Path box, type the Network Path of the remote backup
location.
8 Click Next.
Result: The Database Backup Utility progress window appears.
12 Click Exit.
Result: The Remember to schedule regular backups window appears.
13 Click OK
Note: If you plan to use tape backups for all future backups, and you do not
plan to reuse the remote directory for future backups, delete the user
account you created for this purpose after you complete the upgrade. You
can also unshare the directory on the network computer.
14 Check whether any events are recorded in the event log on the client PC
from which you scheduled the backup. If there are any errors, check the
database backup log files on the server. These files are located at the
following paths: C:\Winnt\System32\backup.log and
D:\Sybase\ASE-12_0\install\backup.log.
To view sample time measurements for tape backup and restore, see
“Requirements for backups” on page 2353.
To calculate the capacity requirements for tape or remote directory backups, see
“Calculating the capacity requirements for database backups” on page 2361.
5 Click Next.
Result: The Database Backup Utility progress window appears.
9 Click Exit.
Result: The Remember to schedule regular backups window appears.
10 Click OK
11 After the database backup is complete, remove the backup tape and save
it.
If you plan to use tape backups for all future backups, and you do not plan
to reuse the remote directory for future backups, delete the user account
you created for this purpose after you complete the upgrade. You can also
unshare the directory on the network computer.
12 Check whether any events are recorded in the event log on the client PC
from which you scheduled the backup. If any errors occur, check the
database backup log files on the server. These files are located at the
following paths: C:\Winnt\System32\backup.log and
D:\Sybase\ASE-12_0\install\backup.log.
What is next?
Proceed to Step 11. “Create a SCCS 5.0 Platform Recovery Disk” on page 1187.
Even if you have an existing Platform Recovery Disk available, ensure you
create a new one after installing the latest SUs, SUS, and PEPs.
7 Click OK.
Result: The system exports files containing the server setup record and
database configuration to the disk or remote directory. When the process is
complete, the following window appears.
4 Ensure you map a network drive to the remote directory in which you want
to save the Platform Recovery Disk.
The name of the remote directory into which you save the Platform
Recovery Disk must not contain any spaces. Spaces in the remote
directory name cause errors.
5 Click Browse and navigate to the mapped drive.
6 Select the directory, and then click OK.
Result: The drive you selected appears to the left of the Browse button.
What is next?
If TAPI 3.0 is installed on the original server, proceed to Step 12. “Back up the
TAPI 3.0 database” on page 1193. If Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 is
installed on the original server, proceed to Step 13. “Back up the
Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 database” on page 1194. If neither TAPI 3.0
nor Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 is installed on the original server,
proceed to Step 15. “Check the disk partitions configuration” on page 1208.
What is next?
See Section B: “Prepare the new server,” on page 1205.
You can perform database backups on an ad hoc or scheduled basis while the
system is running.
You can back up the Communication Control Toolkit database in the following
two ways:
1. Use the NCCT 5.0 Console Database Maintenance snap-in.
2. Use the DBComd.exe file to schedule backups and restores. The
DBComd.exe file is located in the Nortel Communication Control Toolkit
root install directory.
4 Click Browse.
Result: The Save As dialog box appears.
5 Browse to the path where you want to save the backup file.
Note: To back up to a network path, use the UNC path to perform the
backup (for example, \\55.555.555.2\sharefolder\5.0.10.2.bak). You cannot
use a mapped network path to perform a database backup.
6 Type the file name of the backup file, and then click Save.
Result: The NCCT Database Admin Properties dialog box appears,
displaying the selected backup file name.
7 Click Backup.
Result: The backup is complete, the following message appears.

Overview
This sections describes the steps you must complete to prepare the new server to
install and upgrade the following components:
Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 Contact Center Manager Server 6.0
Before you upgrade your co-resident 5.0 server to a co-resident 6.0 server,
ensure that the application server meets all the minimum hardware and software
requirements. For details about hardware and software requirements, see the
following:
Nortel Contact Center Manager Server Technical Requirements and
Operating System Configuration Guide
Nortel Contact Center Manager Server Technical Requirements and
Operating System Configuration Guide for the co-resident server

Record the disk partition configuration of the original server so you can use it to
determine how to partition your new server.
Disk drive
letter Disk partition size Disk partition size
Disk number assignment (Stand-alone) (Co-resident)
Disk 0 C 16 GB 32 GB
RAM size
You must complete the base configuration of your new server before you can
migrate Symposium 5.0, Symposium Web Client 4.5, and TAPI 3.0 or
Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 to the new server.
CAUTION
If you move the original platform tape drive to the new platform, ensure
that the database backup of the original platform is complete before you
remove the drive.
2. If the new server will keep the same Nortel server subnet IP address, ensure
that the new platform is disconnected from the network of the original
platform (both ELAN Subnet and Nortel server subnet). The new platform
can remain disconnected until the upgrade procedure is completed.
Nortel recommends that you test your network connection before you
prepare your new server for full service. Disconnect the original server
network (both Nortel server subnet and ELAN subnet) connections, to
ensure that there is no conflict between the IP address and the computer
name of the original server and the new server, test the network drivers and
TCP/IP stack. For more information, see the tip about checking your TCP/
IP stack in “Resolving the failed ping” on page 3009.
Use the following checklist to record information required for your Windows
Server 2003 and Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 migration. You must refer
to this checklist for specific information during the migration. Some information
is in the Platform Recovery Disk you created. However, it is still a good idea to
record the information for reference.

installation.
You must perform a fresh install of Windows Server 2003 on the new server.
Use the following checklist to perform a new installation of Windows Server
2003.
When you install Windows Server 2003, you must:
delete all existing partitions on the primary drives (do not alter the disabled
drives) and format the drives
create a new drive C partition on which to install the Windows Server 2003
operating system
configure the LAN network cards with the same network IP configuration
(for example, IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and so on) as on
the original server. See the TCP/IP parameter information in the
MigInfo.txt file on the Platform Recovery Disk.
On the new server, you can use a different computer name and different IP
addresses than on the original server. However, if you install the server in a
networked environment, Nortel recommends that you use the computer
name and IP addresses (Nortel server subnet and ELAN Subnet) of the
original server on your new server. See the information in the MigInfo.txt
file on the Platform Recovery Disk.
check that the Virtual Memory allocation (swap file) on the new server is
RAM size times 1.5. Set both the initial and maximum size to this value.
partition the disks to at least the minimum recommended size (for more
information, see the Nortel Contact Center Manager Planning and
Engineering Guide)
check that the new server is installed with tape driver software that is
compatible with Windows Server 2003. If it is not compatible, you cannot
restore your database.
ensure that the new drives are installed with the correct RAID
administration utility (if your server is equipped with RAID). The RAID
software is platform-specific and is installed differently for each platform.
Because Windows 2000 domain controllers do not have the additional Windows
Server 2003 security policies, when the application server is running Windows
Server 2003 and you add the server to a Windows 2000 domain controller, you
can only apply the Windows 2000 group security policies that are common to
Windows Server 2003. All new Windows Server 2003 security policies that are
not available in the Windows 2000 domain controller must be controlled by the
Windows Server 2003 local security policy.
If the application server is running Windows Server 2003 and you add the server
to a Windows Server 2003 domain controller, then you can define the security
policies in the Organizational Unit (OU) of the application server and combine
this with the local server security policies for an effective security setting.
You may need to adjust your group policies for Symposium Web Client or
exclude the application server from a specific group policy if conflicts are
identified. For more information about group policies and Symposium Web
Client, see the Nortel Symposium Call Center Web Client 4.5 Security Guide for
Windows Server 2003. This guide is available to distributors and channel
partners who have access to the Partner Information Center web site (within

You must ensure your server computer name and DNS host name match exactly,
including uppercase and lowercase letters. If these names do not match, you
cannot install the Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 database software.
A mismatch in these names can occur, for example, if you perform a new
installation of the operating system and enter the computer name in uppercase
letters. In Windows, your entry is used to set both the computer name and the
DNS host name. However, after the operating system is installed, you can find
that Windows set the DNS host name in uppercase letters as you entered it, but
that the computer name is set in all lowercase letters. Use the following
procedures to check the names and, if necessary, change them.
4 Write down the full computer name exactly as it appears, including case.

Before migrating the Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 software, complete the
following tasks:
Copy the latest Service Update (SU) pack to drive D on your server. Do not
install the Service Update pack. The installation program installs it
automatically at the appropriate time when you install the server software.
Copy the Platform Recovery Disk from the Release 5.0 Symposium Call
Center Server to drive D:\OldPrd of the reconfigured server
Copying the latest Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 Service Update
and Service Update Supplement pack and Platform Recovery Disk to
the server
1 Insert the Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 CD into the CD-ROM drive.
Note: To install from a network shared drive, map the CD-ROM drive to a
drive letter on the server.
2 Navigate to the Supplementary SU folder on the CD or the shared drive
and copy the Service Update (for example, NN_SCCS_5.0_SU_03_S.msi)
to the root of the drive D.
3 Create a directory called OldPrd in drive D:\.
4 Insert the Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 Platform Recovery Disk you
created previously into drive A.
5 Copy the contents of the Platform Recovery Disk to drive D:\OldPrd.
This step is required only if you backed up the server database to a remote
directory. If you backed up the server database to a tape, you can proceed to Step
22. “Install pcAnywhere” on page 1241.
On the target server, you must create a local Windows user account that is
identical to the one you created on the network computer containing the
database backup. You then add the account to the policy “Log on as a service.”
During the server software installation, if the user name and password matches
with the network computer, the system restores the database on your new
Release 6.0 server.
If the user name on the network computer is NGenSys, you need not set up the
user account on the target server. The Release 6.0 Contact Center Manager
Server installation automatically creates the NGenSys user account.

You must install the Symposium Web Client application on drive C on your
computer.
You must install and configure Windows Server 2003 and Symposium Web
Client 4.5 SUS0601 v1 on the target server.
For further details about installing and configuring Symposium Web Client 4.5,
see the Symposium Web Client Planning, Installation, and Administration
Guide.
2. Decide if you will install Symposium Web Client as the default web site on
the application server, or if you will install it as a virtual directory on an
existing web site.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you install Symposium Web
Client as the default web site, reserving the application
server solely for the use of Symposium Web Client.
3. Verify that IIS is completely installed before you install Symposium Web
Client. Click Start > All Programs > Administrative Tools. If Internet
Services Manager is listed, it means that IIS was successfully installed. If it
does not appear, then you must ensure that it is correctly installed before
you proceed with the Symposium Web Client installation.
4. Verify that you have not changed the default settings in Windows 2003 to
disable the capability to generate 8.3 style short filename. Disabling the
capability to generate 8.3 style short filenames causes the installation of
Symposium Web Client to fail. For details, see “Windows Script Host error
when you install SWC on Windows 2003” on page 2999.

Result: The Customer Information window appears.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you click Anyone who uses
this computer (all users). Failure to do so can prevent
users who have authorization to use Symposium Web
Client from using the application server when they need
to.
Only for me (<username>) lets only a user with your username and
password log on to Symposium Web Client.
11 Click Next.
Result: The SOAP Configuration Parameters window appears.
In this window, you must type the URL that you use to access Symposium
Web Client on the application server (without the http:// prefix) so that
certain SOAP WSDL files are installed and function properly. If the
Symposium Web Client default URL is the same as the application server
computer name, then you can accept the default value shown, and then
click Next. If, however, the Symposium Web Client default URL is the
application server fully qualified host name (for example,
<computername>.<domain name>.com), then you must type this name.
If you are installing Symposium Web Client as a virtual directory on an
existing web site, then you still type either the computer name or the fully
qualified host name as usual; you do not type a value that includes the
virtual directory name.
Note: If you change the computer name after you install Symposium Web
Client on Windows Server 2003, then some SOAP processes do not
function properly (because they still refer to the old computer name), and
you cannot work with the components that require SOAP functionality, such
as Configuration. To reset the SOAP files to reflect the new computer
name, an administrator or support technician must run the
ChangeSOAPSrv utility. Additionally, you must perform a procedure to
reset the name in IIS and update the DNS or HOSTS table to reflect the
new computer name.
ATTENTION
If you are not sure of the Symposium Web Client default
URL, then you can accept the default value shown.
However, if the client PCs that are used to access the
application server are located outside the server domain,
then you must type the fully qualified domain name here.
To view the fully qualified domain name of the server,
ping the server computer name. The results of a
successful ping include the fully qualified domain name.
Note: If you use the fully qualified domain name in this window, and if you
add the application server as a Trusted Site when configuring Internet
Explorer on the client PC, then you must also add the fully qualified domain
name as a Trusted Site on each client PC that accesses the application
server.
Result: The Port Configuration for ADAM window appears.
12 Based on the server configuration, the default values in this window vary,
as follows:
Port 389 for LDAP and port 636 for SSL appear in this window. Before
accepting these default values, check with your administrator to ensure
that these ports are not used by any other application. If these ports are
already being used, then ask your administrator to recommend new port
numbers and type them in the boxes provided.
Port 50000 for LDAP and port 50001 for SSL appear in this window.
Before accepting these default values, check with your administrator to
ensure that these ports are not used by any other application. If these
ports are already being used, then ask your administrator to recommend
new port numbers and type them in the boxes provided.
13 Click Next.
Result: The Web Site Type window appears.
You can install Symposium Web Client as the default web site on the
application server, or install it as a virtual directory on an existing web site.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you click Default, reserving the
application server solely for the use of Symposium Web
Client for optimum performance.
15 Select Complete.
16 Click Next.
Result: The Ready to Install the Program window appears.
17 Click Next.
ATTENTION
Installation ends if you did not install the required third-
party applications prior to installing Symposium Web
Client.
An error dialog box appears listing the missing software,
and the setup wizard closes. You cannot complete the
Symposium Web Client installation until you install all
required software.
Note: Sometimes the Files in Use window appears, notifying you of files
that you are using or windows that you have open that are preventing the
Symposium Web Client installation from proceeding. To continue with the
installation, close the files or windows listed, and then click Retry.
Occasionally, the window notifies you that you must close the Add or
Remove Programs window. In this case, click Retry. If the installation
does not proceed, then click Ignore. The installation proceeds.
18 After the program has installed the first series of files, the iceAdmin
Password Change window appears, prompting you to type a custom
password for the iceAdmin user account. This user account has full
19 In the New Password box, type the new password for the iceAdmin user
account.
Note: After you install Symposium Web Client, you can change this custom
password.
20 In the Confirm Password box, type the password again, and then click
OK.
Result: The system ensures that you typed the same password both times,
registers the new password, and then the installation proceeds. It continues
with installing the Crystal Reports templates.
Then the system installs Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM).
Note: Sometimes the window does not appear; instead, the system
automatically starts installing the SOAP files. In this case, proceed to the
next step.
22 The program searches for installed components, and then installs the
required Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) files.
Result: After the system has installed the required SOAP components, the
ADAMSchema window appears.
You must have the same Service Update on the source server and the target
server to successfully migrate from the source server to the target server. At
minimum, the patch level must be Symposium Web Client 4.5 (SUS0601 v1) to
support a direct upgrade to Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0.
What is next?
Proceed to Step 27. “Restore Symposium Web Client 4.5 client data files” on
page 1286.
Perform this procedure to restore the files that you back up from the source
server to the target server.
ATTENTION
When you restore Symposium Web Client data, you must
restore data that was backed up from the same release and
version of the software as that which is currently installed
on the application server. For example, if your
application server currently contains Symposium Web
Client Release 4.5 SU03, you can only restore a backup
of Release 4.5 SU03 data onto this server. You cannot
restore data from previous Service Updates. If you restore
data backed up on previous versions, you corrupt your
server.
You can use the Windows Backup Tool or a similar tool to restore the
Symposium Web Client data. The procedure in this section is based on the
Windows Backup Tool method of restoring data.
Prerequisites
Before you perform this procedure, you must ensure that the target server has the
following software installed and configured correctly:
Windows Server 2003
Nortel recommends that you install all software in the same directories as those
used on your original application server.
1. On your target server Symposium Web Client installed, shut down the
SymposiumWC service.
2. Perform a restore using the appropriate backup and restore utility.
3. Manually restart the SymposiumWC service.
4. Restore the corresponding registry data.
At this point your Symposium Web Client is operational except for
scheduled information.
5. Reactivate scheduled assignments.
ATTENTION
You must shut down the SymposiumWC service before
starting the restoration procedure.
You must also retain the permission properties of the
ADAM data directory and ADAM files if you restore these
files (for example, you must retain permissions such as
“NETWORK SERVICE”). If you do not maintain
permission properties, the SymposiumWC service does not
start.
You must manually restart the SymposiumWC service after
you complete the restoration.
Restoring data files using the Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 tool
ATTENTION
Do not install the Veritas Backup 9.1 software on
co-resident systems containing Symposium Call Center
Server and Symposium Web Client as it prevents the
NBNM service from starting up. In addition to this
problem, if you use Veritas Backup 9.1 to restore
Symposium Web Client data on a co-resident system, it has
an adverse effect on the operation of the system and may
require a complete system rebuild.
Nortel tested the Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 tool (build 4691), which you can use
instead of the Microsoft Windows Backup Tool to back up and restore the
Symposium Web Client data. There are several other third-party tools that can
perform a similar function; choose the tool that best suits your organization.
If you use Veritas to restore Symposium Web Client data, note the following:
You must stop the SymposiumWC service prior to restoring from a Veritas
backup file. You must also ensure that Restore over existing files is
selected in the general properties for the restore job. For more information,
consult the Veritas application online Help.
The default installation of Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 uses the TCP port
10 000, which is also the default port used by the Symposium Web Client
Toolkit NameService. This conflict results in Symposium Web Client
malfunctioning (administrative changes, such as agent and skillset name
changes, are not updated in real time, requiring you to restart the
ICERTDService to refresh the cache).
To avoid this conflict, before you use Veritas, you must change the default
port that it uses to another port number of your choice (at this time, you
cannot change the Symposium Web Client Toolkit NameService port
number). When you change the port number, you must first investigate the
ports that are currently being used by all the products in your network (both
Nortel and third-party products). Then choose a port that does not cause a
conflict between any of these products.
To avoid potential problems with Veritas Backup Exec 9.1, check
www.seer.support.veritas.com for recommended service packs and consult
www.nortel.com for the latest supported Veritas hotfix and/or service pack
with Contact Center Manager Administration.
Ensure that your version of the Veritas software supports the backup and
restore of the Windows Server 2003 ADAM data files. Nortel tested build
4691 of the Backup Exec software.
Ensure that your version of Backup Exec has the Microsoft Volume
Shadow Copy Service installed. When restoring files, you must select
Shadow Copy Components, as well as any hard drive components
(Symposium Web Client folders).
When restoring data, you must ensure that Restore over existing files is
selected in the general properties for the restore job.
When you restore the Symposium Web Client ADAM files (Shadow Copy
Components), the SymposiumWC service is stopped automatically. You
must manually restart the service after the restoration is complete.
Whenever you perform a partial backup of Symposium Call Center Server, you
must ensure that you also perform a backup of Symposium Web Client.
Furthermore, you must store both backups in the same location.

6 Proceed to the next step, Step 31. “Restore the Communication Control
Toolkit 5.0 database” on page 1307.
This step is required only if you installed Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 on
the new server.
Restoring data
The restore procedure for the Communication Control Toolkit server allows you
to restore a database that was previously backed up using the Communication
Control Toolkit server Administration Backup utility. The backup of the
database is a complete backup of the Communication Control Toolkit server
database schema and data.
Therefore, only restore a backup if you did not upgrade your Communication
Control Toolkit install since it was backed up. Nortel recommends that you label
your backup files with the Communication Control Toolkit install number so
you are aware of the database schema version (for example,
NCCT_backup_5080.bak).
Each installation supplies an empty database file. This empty database file has
the same database schema version as the installed database. If the system is
upgraded with a new Communication Control Toolkit install that updates the
database structure, then performing a restore using the previous Communication
Control Toolkit install empty database backup file restores the previous install
database schema.
Before you can restore the Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 database, you
must:
Restore the TAPI SP database
Ensure that Communication Control Toolkit services are stopped.
You can restore a Communication Control Toolkit 5.0 database in the following
two ways:
1. Use the Communication Control Toolkit Database Maintenance snap-in
from the NCCT 5.0 Console, which is available from a shortcut on the Start
> All Programs > Nortel > Communication Control Toolkit > NCCT 5.0
Console.

Step 35. Migrate graphical real-time displays (GRTD) 1344
Step 36. Migrate scheduled assignments 1353
Step 37. Migrate user types 1358
Step 38. Removing associated supervisors 1360
Overview
The procedures in this chapter are required only if you use Symposium Call
Center Server 5.0 administered by at least one Classic Client and plan to
upgrade your Symposium Call Center Server 5.0 to Contact Center Manager
Server 6.0; otherwise, see Section E: “Upgrade the product software on the new
server,” on page 1361.
Because Contact Center Manager Server 6.0 does not support Classic Client, if
you use Classic Client to administer your Symposium Call Center Server, you
must migrate your Classic Client data to Contact Center Manager
Administration 6.0.
If you are a new user to Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0 and Contact
Center Manager Server and do not have any Classic Clients in your network,
you need not perform the procedures in this chapter.
This section describes how to migrate the following Classic Client data to
Contact Center Manager Administration:
Filters
Historical reports
Real-time displays
Graphical real-time displays
Agent-skillset and agent-supervisor scheduled assignments
User types
This chapter also describes how to remove associated supervisors from Classic
Client.
Migration Checklist
Filters
Migrate filters ❏
Historical reports
Real-time displays
Migrate real-time displays ❏
With the filters feature, you can select the sites and resources to be included in a
network-consolidated report. After you create and save a filter, you can apply it
to both standard and private network-consolidated historical reports to view only
the information that you specify in the generated report. When you connect to a
Contact Center Manager Server and open a network-consolidated report, the
Selection Criteria area includes a list of the available network sites and any
available filters that you define and save.
You can use filters migrated from the Classic Client in Contact Center Manager
Administration. While each of the Classic Client filters contains only one type
of data – either skillsets, applications, route numbers, route names, Dialed
Number Identification Service (DNIS) numbers, or DNIS names – you can add
different types of data to these filters after you import them into Contact Center
Manager Administration by using the filters tabs in Historical Reporting.
With the Filter Set Upgrade Tool, you can reuse existing Classic Client filters.
Use the tool to:
retrieve the existing filter information from the Network Control Center
master database (MDB).
reformat and save filters in the Active Directory.
Migrating filters
1 Access the Filter Set Upgrade Tool at \\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\Reporting\Historical\dll\Rptsets.exe.
Note: This tool is used by administrator or webadmin only.
2 Input the path of the Network Control Center filter (database file) or click the
browse button to search for the file.
Classic Client:
Stores all user-defined and user-created reports on supervisor PCs running
Classic Client or on a network PC designated by supervisor.
Stores and controls all schedules on the Symposium Call Center Server.
These schedules trigger the running of reports on the Classic Client.
You must migrate user-created reports and user-defined reports from Classic
Client to Contact Center Manager Administration:
User-created reports are customer report templates created with Crystal
Reports and imported into Classic Client. User-created reports and their
schedules can be migrated from the Classic Client if they were created
using Crystal Reports software (version 9.0 or earlier). You can migrate the
following types of user-created reports: Historical, Configuration, and
Parameterized reports.
User-defined reports are user reports saved from the standard Classic
Client reports, such as the Agent Performance report. Contact Center
Manager Server also provides the same set of standard reports. Migrating
user-defined reports involves re-creating the report manually using the
same standard template that exists on Contact Center Manager
Administration, specifying the same criteria, and saving it.
Notes:
User-created reports cannot be migrated if they were created with any other
ODBC or Structured Query Language (SQL) compliant writer. These
reports must be recreated in Contact Center Manager Server.
If your reports are scheduled reports, you must schedule each report in Contact
Center Manager Administration and remove the schedule from the Symposium
Server through the Classic Client. If the schedule is not removed from the
Symposium Call Center Server, the report runs twice if the Classic Client is
installed and the report listener is running.
7. Delete the user-created report from the Symposium Call Center Server. For
details, see“Deleting user-defined or user-created reports from Classic
Client” on page 1337.
5 Right-click on each user-created report and note the path to the location
where the file is stored.
2 Select the Contact Center Manager Server from which you want to run the
report (for example, the Galway server).
Result: The server expands to reveal a choice between public, private, and
any group folders created.
12 Click Finish.
Result: The report is added to the list in the Reports window.
Notes:
If you select the Configuration option, you do not need to specify an
alias.
To determine the alias of a database, open the report in Crystal Reports
and choose Database > Set Alias.
The Timestamp field is not required for a configuration report.
4 Double-click Scheduler.
Result: All of the reports currently scheduled are displayed. Make note of
the reports and their schedules for migration.
Schedule reports
For more information about scheduling reports, see the Contact Center Manager
Supervisor’s Guide.
ATTENTION
The schedule time that you specify is based on the
time zone that you choose. However, the system
translates the schedule time that you enter to the time
zone in which the Contact Center Manager
Administration server is located. The report is
generated at the time and in the time zone you specify,
but the timestamp at the bottom of the generated
report reflects the Contact Center Manager
Administration server time. For more information about
time zones, see the Supervisor’s Reference Guide for
Symposium Web Client 4.5. This document is posted
on the web site www.nortel.com.
You can also specify one or more e-mail addresses to which the system can send
notification that the report has been generated successfully, or that there were
problems preventing the report from being generated. If the system cannot

located on the Contact Center Manager installation DVD.
After you install Contact Center Manager Administration, you must install all
required hot fixes in the Contact Center Manager Administration Hot Fix folder
to ensure that Contact Center Manager Administration functions correctly.
Install the required applicable updates for Contact Center Manager Server,
Server Utility and License Manager. You can obtain Service Updates and
Service Update Supplements as follows:
All SU packs and SUSs are available on the Enterprise Solutions PEP
Library Web sites located at www.nortel.com/espl. To register for this Web
site, follow the instructions provided at www.nortel.com/register.
Any SU packs and SUSs that are available at the time of shipping are
included on the DVD with your software.
You must read the readme file associated with each Service Update that you
plan to install.
6 If you receive a prompt to view the Readme file, click Yes. Review the
readme file and then continue with the installation of the SU.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
7 Click Yes.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
8 Click Next.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
9 Click Install.
Result: The system installs the patch on the server, and then the following
dialog box appears.
10 Click Finish.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
11 Click Yes.
Result: The SU is installed.
It is available from the Nortel Web site (www.nortel.com/espl) or you can obtain
it from your Nortel customer support representative.
You must read the readme file associated with each Service Update that you
plan to install. Follow the instructions in the Readme file to install this patch.
This step includes procedures for downloading and applying the latest Service
Update and Service Update Supplements for Contact Center Manager
Administration from www.nortel.com/espl.
Note: The numbers of the Service Updates, Service Update Supplements, and
Designer Patches shown in the previous list are examples only.
For example, if SU01, SUS0101, SUS0102 are released, SU02 contains SU01,
SUS0101, and SUS0102.
Note: Designer Patches (DP) address critical issues for specific customers. A
DP is usually posted to a secure location, and installed on the recommendation
of a Nortel support technician.
ATTENTION
When you install the latest Service Update, note the
Administrator account with which you log on to the server. If
you have multiple Administrator accounts, ensure that you
always use the same account to install or uninstall Service
Updates, Service Update Supplements, and Designer Patches
on the server. If you install an update with one account, and
then try to install the next update or uninstall the current patch
while logged on as a different account, the installation or
uninstall fails.
Installation of SU02 and SUS0201 fails if the
ServerSoapName key in the registry is greater than 24
characters. In this scenario, the License Manager Service does
not start, and the Service Update installation fails. The
ServerSoapName value exceeds 24 characters when your site
references the Contact Center Manager Administration fully
qualified domain name in the SOAP files, and you enter a
URL of more than 24 characters in the SOAP Configuration
Parameters window during the Contact Center Manager
Administration installation. For information about
troubleshooting this issue, see the Contact Center Manager
Administration Installation and Maintenance Guide.
To download and apply the latest Service Update, you must have a program
installed that can open and extract files with the .zip extension (for example,
WinZip).
7 Click Yes to read the file, or No to proceed directly with the installation.
Note:
The readme file can contain important information about the update that
you are installing, such as a list of dependent patches, any pre- or post-
installation tasks that you need to perform, or the need to stop any
services manually. Nortel recommends that you read the file before
installing the patch.
If you are attempting to install an older version of a Service Update or
Service Update Supplement than that which is currently installed on the
server, the installation is halted, and a notification window appears.
Click Cancel to exit the installation. If you require the older Service
Update, you must manually uninstall the newer patch, and then run the
installation for the older patch again.
8 Click Next.
Result: The Ready to Install window appears.
Note:
If you install a new Service Update on a server that contains an existing
Service Update and perhaps some Service Update Supplements, the
system removes these patches before installing the new one. The
Installed patches found window appears, listing the current installed
patches.
Click Next to remove the patches. When the system finishes removing
the patches, the installation of the new patch proceeds. See step 9.
The Files in Use window appears if files are open that the installation
program needs to update. You must close the files shown in the
window, and then click Retry to continue with the upgrade.
9 Click Install.
Result: The Installing window appears, showing you the progress of the
installation.
To change the name of the new server and the IP address back to the original
name and IP address, see “Change the co-resident server name” on page 2872
and “Change the co-resident server IP address” on page 2895.
To protect your system from unauthorized access, change the passwords for the
Nortel user accounts as soon as you finish the upgrade.
NGenDist and NGenDesign are Windows remote access accounts that enable
the distributor or Nortel customer support to remotely log on to the server if
requested by the customer. These accounts are created during the server
software installation. To ensure server security, change the NGenDist and
NGenDesign passwords.
ATTENTION
The on-site installer is instructed to change all default
passwords as part of the on-site installation procedures.
You can change all passwords with the procedures in this
section. Nortel recommends that you change all passwords
regularly to maintain system security.
If server software is reinstalled, the default accounts and
passwords are recreated and passwords must be changed.
6 Click Proceed.
Result: The Properties window appears.
7 In the Password box, type the new password.
Note: Ensure that you use a password that contains a combination of
numbers and letters (see “Password guidelines” on page 2492).

Password box.
9 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
10 Click OK
11 Repeat steps 4 to 10 for NGenDesign and NGenSys.
12 Select Exit to save changes.
13 Record these passwords and store them in a secure place away from the
server.
If you changed the NGenSys password, continue with the following
procedure.
ATTENTION
After you change the passwords, remember to log on as
NGenSys. You must log on as NGenSys to monitor and
manage the server.
5 Click the Log On tab, and then fill in the Password and Confirm Password
boxes with the current NGenSys password.
Note: Use the same password you assigned to NGenSys in “Changing the
NGenDist, NGenDesign, or NGenSys passwords” on page 1471.
6 Click OK.
ATTENTION
When you are finished, remember to log on as NGenSys.
You must be logged on as NGenSys to monitor and

Password security
Write down the new passwords you create, and store them in a safe, secure place
away from the server. Give the passwords only to those who need them.
ATTENTION
If your server computer is on a workgroup, complete this
step. To add your server to a domain, see Step 86. “Add
server to domain (optional)” on page 1695 for information
about configuring the NGen user groups for remote access
in a domain environment.
You must complete a series of steps before you put Release 6.0 of Contact
Center Manager Server into full service.

5 Click OK.
6 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
The Use Login Warning Message setting is server-specific.
If the Contact Center Manager Server is part of a networked
contact center, this setting needs to be set on each Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
Note: The IP multicast address that the server in Contact Center Manager Server
uses to send data must be configured on Contact Center Manager Server. This
address is listed in the IP Multicast Group box.
Note: The unicast communication option applies only between the Contact
Center Manager Administration server and the client PCs. Because the Contact
Center Manager Administration server receives all the raw data from each server
in Contact Center Manager Server through multicast channels, this network
segment must always be multicast-enabled.
Note: If you choose, at a later date, to multicast-enable your entire network, you
can do so without upgrading Contact Center Manager Administration.
This type of data transmission enables users to view nodal real-time displays,
network-consolidated real-time displays, Agent Desktop Display, and
Emergency Help notifications on the client PCs.
Real-time displays viewed on one client PC that use the same data stream share
a single connection to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (for
example, a standard agent display and a private agent display both use the agent
moving window stream and can share a single unicast connection). Therefore,
for n client displays of different statistical types, there are n separate data
streams in operation, which introduces additional traffic on the network.
If a client opens a collection display (six displays in one screen), several unicast
channels are opened from the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
the client computer, one for each statistic type in the collection.
Note: Agent Desktop Display and Emergency Help notifications are not
available on client PCs that only receive unicast data.
4 In the IP Receive Address and IP Send Address boxes, type the correct
address information.
ATTENTION
If the server in Contact Center Manager Server is part of
a networked contact center, all servers in Contact Center
Manager Server within the network must have the same
multicast IP address. The IP Receive address for Contact
Center Manager Administration must match the common
multicast IP addresses of the servers in Contact Center
Manager Server (the address used to send multicast
data).
Note: The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending and
receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and 239.255.255.255 range. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast addresses for
your specific network.
5 Accept the default values in the Output Rate box (5000) and the Transform
Rate box (1000). You can adjust the default values; however, reducing the
Output Rate value and the Transform Rate value increases the workload
on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
Note: The fastest rate at which multicast data from Contact Center
Manager Server reaches the end user in Contact Center Manager
Administration is equal to the highest value among the following settings:
the Multicast Rate at which data is sent from Contact Center Manager
Server to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (For more
information about Multicast Rates, see the Nortel Contact Center
Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.)
the Output Rate at which the Contact Center Manager Administration
server sends data to client PCs
Example
If the Contact Center Manager Server Multicast Rate is set to 2
seconds, the Contact Center Manager Administration server Transform
Rate is set to 1 second, and the Contact Center Manager Administration
server Output Rate is 7 seconds, then the data on the client PC cannot
refresh faster than every 7 seconds, regardless of the refresh rate that
the user chose in Real-Time Reporting.
If you want to decrease the length of time required for real-time statistics
to reach client PCs, you can decrease the Output Rate and Transform
Rate values; however, this impacts performance on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Notify users of the Real-Time Reporting
component of these rates so they can adjust the refresh rate
accordingly. For more information about adjusting rates and assessing
performance, see the Capacity Assessment Tool (CapTool) chapter of
the Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
6 Accept the default value in the OAM Timeout box (10000).
ATTENTION
You need to increase the OAM Timeout value if the
following situations occur:
You cannot see any partition elements in the right
pane when creating or viewing a partition in Access
and Partition Management. This can occur when there
is a large amount of data stored on Contact Center
Manager Server and the network is slow.
Your contact center has a large numbers of agents or
skillsets. In this case, it is not be possible to return a
large list of agents or skillsets when viewing a report
using the Historical Reporting component.
If you increase the OAM Timeout value, this provides
more time for the partition elements to be collected on a
per-server basis. Nortel recommends that you increase
this value in increments of 10,000 (milliseconds).
7 Nortel recommends that you leave the Compress Realtime Data Packets
check box selected, which is the default setting. If you clear this check
mark, then you disable real-time data packet compression.
8 In the Transmission Options area, click the button beside the transmission
mode that is required for the site. Choose one of the following:
Multicast only if your network supports multicast traffic (recommended),
and proceed to step 11.
Unicast only if you do not want any multicast traffic on your network,
and proceed to step 9.
Multicast and Unicast if you want to support both transmission types,
and proceed to step 9.
Result: If you select either Unicast or Multicast and Unicast, the Maximum
Unicast Sessions area appears at the lower section of the window.
Note: The value that you type in this box is used to limit the number of
client sessions and, as a result, the network bandwidth usage. Since each
open display adds CPU load on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, and adds to the overall bandwidth usage on the
network, you must limit the number of client sessions by typing the number
in this box. After this limit is reached, no further unicast real-time
connections are accepted until one of the existing streams is closed. An
error message is logged on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server to indicate the limit is reached, and a message appears on the client
indicating that the connection is not allowed. For information about entering
the appropriate value, see the Contact Center Manager Administration
Technical Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.
10 Click the Restart Real Time Reporting Service check box to select it.
11 Click OK.
Result: The Restart ICERtdService status window appears while the
service is restarting, and closes after the service restarts successfully.
12 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Real-Time
Reporting Configuration settings whenever these settings
are changed (for example, after installing or upgrading
Contact Center Manager Administration). If you need to
restore your Contact Center Manager Administration data,
you must reconfigure these settings manually.
The Emergency Help component only functions if you are using the multicast
communication method from the Contact Center Manager Administration server
to the client PC.
Note: If you are configuring a replicating server, you must ensure that the
Emergency Help Configuration settings on the replicating server match the
Emergency Help Configuration settings on the primary server.
2 In the left pane, navigate to the Emergency Help folder by clicking the (+)
sign next to the Nortel Networks folder and the (+) sign next to the
Applications folder.
3 In the left pane, click the Emergency Help folder.
Result: The Emergency Help Configuration window appears.
5 In the IP Send Address box, type the IP address to which the Contact
Center Manager Administration server sends Emergency Help information.
This IP Send address can be the same as or different from the IP address
that the Contact Center Manager Administration server uses to send Real-
Time Reporting and Agent Desktop Display data to client PCs.
6 Click the Restart Emergency Help Service check box.
7 Click OK.
Result: The system restarts Emergency Help.
8 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Emergency
Help Configuration settings whenever these settings are
changed (for example, after installing or upgrading Contact
Center Manager Administration). If you need to restore
your Contact Center Manager Administration data, you
must reconfigure these settings manually.
Option 1—You can create a shared folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server for exporting scheduled reports.
Option 2—You can create a shared folder on the client PC for exporting
scheduled reports.
Note: Granting change and read permissions to the scheduled report account
(that is iceAdmin or domain account) only provides a higher level of security.
However, granting change and read permissions to the Everyone group provides
more flexibility because Contact Center Manager Administration users can
download exported report output files from the shared folder without special
permissions. Choose the option that is most appropriate for the security policy of
your organization.
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
scheduled report account (that is, iceAdmin or domain account), follow
these steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server
that stores the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is,
iceAdmin or domain account) on the folder
2. To create a shared folder with change and read permissions to Everyone
account on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, follow these
steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server
that stores the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Right-click on the target folder and grant change/read permissions to
Everyone.
Note: Scheduled reports use the local administrator account named iceAdmin or
the domain account set up by the administrator in the iceAdmin Password
Change Utility to run, print and export the scheduled report.
The reports are exported locally to the shared folder on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Contact Center Manager Administration users
require read permission on the Contact Center Manager Administration's shared
folder to copy the exported report files to their desktops/client PCs.
To enable users to access the saved report file, you must grant each user
read/delete access rights to this folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server (or alternately, create separate shared folders with read/
delete access for each applicable user). For details about configuring user access
privileges, see the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.

Contact Center Manager Account (using Steps required to export
Administration Server iceAdmin Password scheduled report to
Configuration Change Utility) client PC
Scheduled Report
Contact Center Manager Account (using Steps required to export
Administration Server iceAdmin Password scheduled report to
Configuration Change Utility) client PC
You can only export scheduled reports to client PCs that are within the same
domain as the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
To export scheduled reports to the client PC, you must first create a shared
folder on the client PC, and grant change and read permissions to the scheduled
reports account group (that is, iceAdmin or the domain account set up by the
administrator using the iceAdmin Password Change Utility).
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
iceAdmin account, follow these steps:
Click Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users
and Groups > Users.
Create a new user iceAdmin with the same password as on Contact
Center Manager Administration server
Create a folder on the client PC to store the exported scheduled report
file from the Contact Center Manager Administration scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the local iceAdmin account on the
folder
Note: This option cannot work when the client PC is outside the domain of the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. In this scenario, you must add
the client PC to the network domain of the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
To export scheduled report files to a client PC, in the Output box on the Report
Properties window, type the path to the shared folder to which the report is sent.
The path must have the format \\<client PC computer name>\<shared folder
name>\<file name>, without the file extension. Alternatively, you can use the
Browse button to select your shared folder for export file.
For example, to export the Agent Performance report to a shared folder on the
client PC where the client PC computer name is clientpc, the shared folder name
is reports, and the report name is agent, type \\clientpc\reports\agent in the
Output box.
For details about configuring user access privileges, see the Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 documentation. If you require additional information about creating
and mapping folders, see your Microsoft documentation.
However, if you make changes to the original report on the network computer
after you import it into Contact Center Manager Administration, these changes
are not reflected in the imported report unless you select Synchronize report
template from the network drive in the template importing wizard. If you select
this value when importing the report, then, when you subsequently run the
imported report in Contact Center Manager Administration (either ad hoc or
scheduled), the system checks the network folder in which the original report is
stored to see if any changes are made to it. If the original report changed, the
system synchronizes these changes with the imported report before running it.
This process is automatic and invisible to the user.
If you made changes to several original reports after importing them into
Contact Center Manager Administration, you can manually synchronize the
changes with the imported reports all at once by using the Synchronize User
Imported Report Templates window in Contact Center Manager Administration.
In this window, when you click Submit, the system synchronizes the changes
that you made to all original reports stored in shared folders on a client PC with
the copies stored on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
However, because this can be a lengthy process (based on the number of
reports), and to avoid corrupting any existing reports, Nortel recommends that
you do so only when no reports are running (either ad hoc or scheduled).
Before you can use the report synchronization feature, you must set up the
shared folder on the client PC with the appropriate access privileges according
to the security policy of your organization.
ATTENTION
When the Contact Center Manager Administration server
is part of a network domain, the user imported reports
(only when run as scheduled reports) cannot be
synchronized automatically because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server account that is used for
scheduled reports, iceAdmin, cannot have access to the
network directory. In this scenario, to synchronize the
affected user imported reports, follow the procedure “To
manually synchronize changes made to user imported
templates” in the Contact Center Manager Administration
online Help, or run the report ad hoc whenever the
original report template is modified on the source
network location.

and enable Guest account on the client PC. For details, see “Option 1:
Sharing the folder with read permissions for the Everyone account and
enable Guest account on the client PC” on page 1537.
or
You can share the network folder with Read permissions for the domain/
directory security account used for Contact Center Manager Administration
server. For details, see “Option 2: Sharing the network folder with Read
permissions for the domain/directory security account used for Contact
Center Manager Administration server” on page 1541.
Choose the option that best suits your company security policy.
Option 1: Sharing the folder with read permissions for the Everyone
account and enable Guest account on the client PC
To perform this procedure, your server and the client PC must be members of
the same network domain. Additionally, the directory security account of the
server's default web site must be set to the network domain account. If you are
using the IUSR_SWC account, you must replace it with the network domain
account for the IIS directory security. Therefore, you must complete the steps in
the procedure“Setting the directory security account of the server default web
site to the network domain account” on page 1531, before you begin this
procedure.

and then click OK.
16 Close the Computer Management window.
Option 2: Sharing the network folder with Read permissions for the
domain/directory security account used for Contact Center
Manager Administration server
In this procedure, your server and the client PC must be members of the same
network domain. Additionally, the directory security account of the server's
default web site must be set to the network domain account. If you are using the
IUSR_SWC account, you must replace it with the network domain account for
the IIS directory security. Therefore, you must complete the steps in the
procedure“Setting the directory security account of the server default web site to
the network domain account” on page 1531, before you begin this procedure.
Before you perform this procedure, ask your network administrator which
domain account is used on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server for IIS directory security. The domain account is the account that
you need to use in this procedure.
If you choose this option, you must manually synchronize any changes
made to the original report with the local copy of the report by using the

different from NGenDist and NGenDesign. The network administrator can
be required to carry out this step. Record the user name and password
carefully as they are required to remotely support the Contact Center
Manager Server Release 6.0 server.
2 On the Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 server, no changes
are required to the operating system, RAS configuration, server software,
or pcAnywhere installation.
3 When you dial in to the Release 6.0 server of Contact Center Manager
Server, the system prompts the remote user for a domain user account and
password. After the Domain controller authenticates the domain user
account and password, you can start the pcAnywhere session.The
pcAnywhere logon can still use the NGenDist or NGenDesign account.
Note: Since there is no local record of the Domain user account, you must
maintain two user accounts, one is the domain user account, and the other
is the local pcAnywhere account.
Nortel recommends that the time difference between the Communication Server
1000/Meridian 1 PBX and the Domain controller time be kept within a few
seconds (+/- 10 seconds). The maximum difference can be up to 5 minutes
before Kerberos authentication problems can arise. Once a month, check the
times on the CS 1000/Meridian 1and the domain to ensure that the 5-minute
tolerance is not exceeded.
ATTENTION
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit,
and delete servers in Contact Center Manager Server. When
you delete a server, you delete all customized Contact
Center Manager data associated with that server, such as
custom report groups, private real-time displays, and
private report templates. All contact center data stored on
the server, such as skillsets, users, and CDNs remains on
the server.
You can restore a more recently backed-up database (5.0) than the database
when your new Release 6.0 server is ready to go live. For example, if you
upgrade from Symposium Call Center Server Release 5.0 to Release 6.0, but
keep the original Release 5.0 server active, then when your Release 6.0 server
goes live, you can restore a more recently backed-up database. You do not need
to perform another migration.
Before you restore a more recently backed-up database, ensure that you note the
sysadmin password you used during the original database restore. If you made a
change to this password you must edit the properties page on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server to reflect the new sysadmin password.
Use the Database Restore utility to perform the database restore.When the
database restore is complete, the Contact Center Manager Server Database
Restore utility automatically launches the Server Setup Configuration utility.
Verify the configuration information, and then complete the configuration
process. Running the server configuration repopulates the database with Release
6.0 data.
When restoring a more recently backed-up Release 6.0 database, you do not
need to run Server Setup Configuration again.
For more information, see “Recovering a recent backup of the database” on page
2419.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important that all call
statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the
original server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure
that the original server remains offline until you install Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
If you need to transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that you complete the following tasks.
1 Stop the HDM service on the live Symposium Call Center Server. The call
statistics files are stored in the file system for use on the migrated Contact
Center Manager Server.
2 Create a new database back up of Symposium Call Center Server.
3 Restore the new database backup onto the Release 6.0 server.
4 Copy the Symposium Call Center Server interval files to Contact Center
Manager Server.
5 Bring the new Release 6.0 server online. The HDM service on Contact
Center Manager Server adds the interval file data to the Contact Center
Manager Server database. The call statistics are restored.
If you add LinkPlexer to your configuration, see the following section for
installation procedures. For LinkPlexer server requirements, see the Nortel
Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
When you install LinkPlexer co-resident with Contact Center Manager Server,
the switch IP address must be the same as the Contact Center Manager Server IP
address.
If you install LinkPlexer as a stand-alone server, the switch address must be the
same as the LinkPlexer IP address.

94. “Install .NET Framework v. 1.1 (optional)” on page 1734.
The .NET Framework version 1.1 and .NET service pack 1 must be installed on
the client machines before you can run an application such as the Agent Desktop
application or the Outbound Campaign Management Tool.
You cannot install two different language versions of the .NET Framework on
the same machine. To view .NET Framework applications in a different
language, you must download the appropriate language version of the .NET
Framework language pack.
You also need to add the Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers
that are administered by Contact Center Manager Administration. For details
about installing the Contact Center Multimedia server, see the Nortel Contact
Center Multimedia Installation and Maintenance Guide. For details about
adding the Contact Center Multimedia server to the list of servers administered
by Contact Center Manager Administration using the Configuration component,
see the Nortel Contact Center Manager Administrator’s Guide.
5 Verify that the version is 1.1.4322. If this version is not correct, you must
install the latest version of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
6 Click Close.
7 Close the Add and Remove Programs window.
After you install and configure the required third-party software on the client PC
(Internet Explorer version 6.0 with the latest supported Service Pack and SOAP
3.0), log on to Contact Center Manager Server to test the installation. Note that
SOAP is not required if you install SU04 or later.
To perform the procedures in this chapter, you log on to the Contact Center
Manager Administration Server. To log on to the Contact Center Manager
Administration Server, you must accept the licence agreement on the Server
Utility.
If you upgrade your Contact Center Manager Server at the same time, you must
upgrade the license agreement in Server Utility. For information, see Step
96. “Download controls to the client” on page 1743.
You must also refresh your servers after an upgrade. For information, see Step
70. “Refresh your servers” on page 1561.
ATTENTION
When you change the webadmin password, if you lose or
forget the new password or you cannot log on to Contact
Center Manager Administration as the webadmin user. In
this case, you must uninstall and reinstall Contact Center
Manager Administration to reinstate the original webadmin
user account with the default password.
To avoid this scenario, immediately after installing Contact
Center Manager Administration, log on to the Contact Center
Manager Administration server as the webadmin user, and
create a new administrator account of your choice (for
example, tempadmin), giving this user account Access and
Partition Management rights. This way, if you lose or forget
your new webadmin password, you can still log on to the
Contact Center Manager Administration server as tempadmin
and change the webadmin password. For more information
about adding Contact Center Manager Administration users,
see the online Help.
If you installed a release earlier than SU04 and did not install the client
version of SOAP 3.0 on the PC, a warning message appears, notifying you
that you must install this software. For details about installing it, see Step
55. “Install the Microsoft SOAP toolkit 3.0 (optional)” on page 591.
If you installed SU04 or later and configured the Contact Center Manager
Administration server name as a Trusted Site or if you installed a release
earlier than SU04 and configured the Contact Center Manager
Administration server name as a Trusted Site and installed the client
version of SOAP 3.0 on the PC, the Contact Center Manager Server main
logon window appears.
ATTENTION
If you lose or forget the new webadmin password, you
cannot log on to Contact Center Manager Administration
as the webadmin user. In this case, you must uninstall
and reinstall Contact Center Manager Administration to
reinstate the original webadmin user account with the
default password. To avoid this scenario, as a safety
precaution, you can now open Access and Partition
Management and create a new user account with
administrator rights, such as tempadmin. If you forget or
lose the new webadmin password that you entered, you
can log on to the Contact Center Manager Administration
server as tempadmin and change the webadmin
password.
9 Click Submit.
Result: The default password is changed and the main logon window
reappears.
12 Click Login.
Result: If you configured a logon warning message, this message appears;
otherwise, the Contact Center Manager Administration main window
appears.

When the browser is configured to prompt, a dialog box appears the first time
the control is required by Contact Center Manager Administration. This dialog
box displays the name of the control, the company of origin, and prompts you to
accept the control before it is downloaded. When this dialog box is displayed,
you must choose to accept the control before the system downloads the control
to the client PC. You are only prompted to accept the control the first time that
the control is required by the Contact Center Manager Administration
component in which you are working.
For a list of the controls required by each component, see “Controls that are
downloaded to the client PC” on page 1744.
Both regular Windows users and domain users who log on to client PCs running
either Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 Professional
must have an ID that is part of the Power Users group on the client PC to
successfully download and install many of the controls required by Contact
Center Manager Administration. (If you install a release earlier than SU04, a
user with administrator privileges must first install client SOAP on the client
PCs.) For information about adding these users to the Power Users group,
consult Microsoft Windows Help in the appropriate operating system. Once a
user with administrator privileges successfully downloads the required controls
to the client PC, users who are not members of the Power Users group or users
who do not have administrator privileges can use all Contact Center Manager
Administration components on the client PC to which they have access.
To verify which controls are installed on the client PC and their version
numbers, you can use the Tools menu in Internet Explorer.
1 In Internet Explorer, click Tools > Internet Options.
Result: The Internet Options window appears.

Overview
ATTENTION
If you have a Contact Center Multimedia Server, if you do not
complete the migration as outlined in this section, you will
have to reinstall Contact Center Multimedia Server.
You can also use the procedures in this chapter to reinstall Contact Center
Manager Server on the same server computer, but keep the original database
(For example, convert a stand-alone installation to a co-resident installation).
For migrations and upgrades, you must select the same switch type on the new
server that is associated with the old server. For example, if you have a
co-resident 5.0 configuration with a CS 1000/Meridian 1 switch, you cannot
upgrade to a co-resident 6.0 configuration with a DMS or SIP switch.
In Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 or later, you can install the
following software on the same server:
Contact Center Manager Server
License Manager
Contact Center Manager Administration
Communication Control Toolkit (only if Contact Center Manager
Administration is already installed on the server)
Server Utility
LinkPlexer (for use with Communication Server 2x00/DMS switch)
You can install only the Communication Control Toolkit on a server on which
you already installed Contact Center Manager Server and Contact Center
Manager Administration. You cannot install Communication Control Toolkit on
the server if you do not have both Contact Center Manager Server and Contact
Center Manager Administration installed.
ATTENTION
Do not uninstall SU or SUS prior to upgrading to a new
version. If you remove the SU or SUS prior to performing
the upgrade, you receive the error message “Failed to
retrieve network card information”. If you receive this
message, click OK and the installation progresses and
completes successfully.
Timing
The following installation times provide guidance on the time required for
software installation:
Preinstallation (including operating system installation and configuration):
5 hours
Installing the server software: 1.5 hours
Postinstallation tasks: 4 hour
These times can vary depending on the server, network infrastructure and your
confidence level with the software. The following installation times were
obtained on servers with the following specifications:
CPU: Intel Xeon 3GHz
Ram: 1.0 GB
Hard Drive: 80GB 7200 RPM SATA with no RAID configuration.
DVD Drive: Internal IDE 8X DVD-ROM
How you actually partition your disks depends on the hardware configuration of
the server on which you are going to run the Contact Center Manager Server.
Use the disk partitioning examples in the next section as a guideline.
F (database) F (database)
G (database) G (database)
The logical disk drive letter assignment of partitioned disks on the new or
reconfigured server depends on the server type. For drive letters, see the
appropriate installation or configuration guide for the type of server to which
you are upgrading.
For example, if your original server has two database partitions (F and G), and
your new server has three database partitions (F, G, and H), you must use the
Database Expansion utility to make use of the additional partition (H). Also, if
any partitions on your new server are larger than those on the original server,
you must use the Database Expansion utility to use the additional space. For
more information, see the “Database Expansion utility” on page 2546.

Ensure that the latest Service Update and any required patches are applied to the
original server. These include enhancements that are required to perform an
upgrade.
Use the following procedure to identify which Service Update pack and patches
are installed on the original server. Go to Enterprise Solutions PEP Library to
Web site (www.nortel.com/espl) to check if a more recent Service Update pack
is available or any required patches for the release of Contact Center Manager
Server that you are running on your original server are available. If a more

To ensure the integrity of the databases on the server, Nortel recommends that
you perform a database integrity check before creating a backup of your
database. This step is highly recommended to capture any database consistency
problems.
Remember that a database integrity check can take from 1 to 3 hours, and that
the server must be offline during the check. You can perform the check ahead of
time, but make it as close as possible to the time of the database backup.
Follow the next procedure to perform a database integrity check on the server.
4 Click OK.
Result: The system messages appear as the status of each service
running on the server is checked. All of Contact Center Manager Server
services are shut down.
5 Wait until the following window appears.
7 Click OK.
Result: A DOS window appears.
8 Do not close this window. The database integrity check takes from 1 to 3
hours to complete. You cannot see any activity on the screen, but notice
continuous disk activity.
9 Wait until the following window appears.
Record the disk partition configuration of the original server so you can use it to
determine how to partition your new server.
Disk drive

Disk number assignment (Stand-alone) (Co-resident)
Disk 0 C 16 GB 32 GB
RAM size
Create a backup of the database of the server. You can use the backup to recreate
the Contact Center Manager Server if the upgrade fails. The server can remain
online while the database is backed up. However, consider the following
information before you proceed with the backup:
An online backup adds an additional load to the server and reduces overall
Contact Center performance. Nortel recommends that you perform backups
during non-peak traffic hours. Do not change any Contact Center
configuration or user setup information during the database backup
operation.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call
statistics and data pegging is missing from the backup. If it is important
that all call statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Contact Center
Manager Server server, take the original server offline immediately
following the database backup. Ensure that the server remains offline
until you install Contact Center Manager Server.
To see sample time measurements for tape backup and restore, see
“Requirements for backups” on page 2353.
To calculate the capacity requirements for tape or remote directory backups, see
“Calculating the capacity requirements for database backups” on page 2361.

Note: If you plan to use tape backups for all future backups, and you do not
plan to reuse the remote directory for future backups, delete the user
account you created for this purpose after you complete the upgrade. You
can also unshare the directory on the network computer.
13 Check whether any events are recorded in the event log on the client PC
from which you scheduled the backup. If any errors occur, check the
database backup log files on the server. These files are located at the
following paths: C:\Winnt\System32\backup.log and
D:\Sybase\ASE-12_0\install\backup.log.
ATTENTION
Before backing up your database to a remote directory,
check your remote folder configuration by following the
guidelines listed in the section “Test the remote directory
backup and restore configuration” on page 2384.
To help you calculate space requirements before you back up the database, see
details about the DBSpace utility in the section “Calculating the capacity
requirements for database backups” on page 2361.
The following section explains the requirements for the remote computer and
network.
Network requirements
The remote computer must be on the same network as the server.
The network connection can be through the Nortel server subnet. Ensure
that the Nortel server subnet has low traffic during the scheduled time for
the database backup. If you run the backup when Nortel server subnet
traffic is high, the database backup can take longer than planned.

Nortel recommends that you back up the individual Contact Center Manager
Administration files in addition to performing a full backup of the source server
as this creates a more manageable backup file containing only the data files that
need to be restored to the target server.
The data files that you must back up before performing the full platform
migration procedure include the following:
Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)
Historical report data
Real-Time display snapshots
Emergency Help snapshots
Schedule data
These files must be restored on to the target server to complete the migration
between servers.
Choose the backup method that is most appropriate for your organization.

ATTENTION
Do not install the Veritas Backup 9.1 software on co-
resident systems containing Contact Center Manager
Server and Contact Center Manager Administration as it
prevents the NBNM service from starting up. In addition
to this problem, if you use Veritas Backup 9.1 to restore
Contact Center Manager Administration data on a co-
resident system, it has an adverse effect on the operation
of the system and can require a complete system rebuild.
If you use Veritas to back up Contact Center Manager Administration data, you
must note the following:
The default installation of Veritas Backup Exec uses the TCP port 10000,
which is also the default port used by the Contact Center Manager
Administration Toolkit NameService. This conflict results in Contact
Center Manager Administration malfunctioning (administrative changes,
such as agent and skillset name changes, are not updated in real time,
requiring you to restart the ICERTDService to refresh the cache).
To avoid this conflict, before you use Veritas, you must change the default
port that it uses to another port number of your choice (the Contact Center
Manager Administration Toolkit NameService port number cannot be
changed at this time). When changing the port number, you must first
investigate the ports that are currently used by all the products in your
network (both Nortel and third-party products). Then, choose a port that
does not cause a conflict between any of these products. For a list of ports
used by Contact Center Manager Administration, see the Contact Center
Manager Administration Technical Requirements and Operating System
Configuration Guide. For instructions for changing the Veritas Backup
Exec default port number, see the Veritas support article located at
www.seer.support.veritas.com.
When using the Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 tool to back up Contact Center
Manager Administration data files, you must first stop the SymposiumWC
service. Failure to do so results in errors in the Veritas backup, in which
case you are not able to use the backup to restore Contact Center Manager
Administration data. When the backup is complete, restart the
SymposiumWC service.
To avoid potential problems with Veritas Backup Exec 9.1, check
www.seer.support.veritas.com for recommended service packs and consult
www.nortel.com for the latest supported Veritas hotfix and/or service pack
with Contact Center Manager Administration.
Ensure that your version of the Veritas software supports the backup and
restore of the Windows Server 2003 ADAM data files. Nortel tested build
4691 of the Backup Exec software.
Ensure that your version of Backup Exec has the Microsoft Volume
Shadow Copy Service installed.
To back up the Contact Center Manager Administration ADAM
information with the Veritas Backup Exec tool, select the following:
Shadow Copy Components > User Data > Active Directory Application
Mode > C:\Program Files\Microsoft ADAM\instance1\data
where C:\Program Files\Microsoft ADAM\instance1\data is the
instance used by Symposium Web Client data.
You must also back up all other directories detailed in the section
“Option 2: Backing up data files using the Microsoft Windows Backup
Tool” on page 1809.
For more detailed information, consult the online Help on the Veritas Web site
at www.veritas.com.
In addition to the files listed in these folders, you must also back up any files that
you saved on the server for Contact Center Manager Administration operations,
such as custom report templates, Historical Reporting output files, or snapshots
of Real-Time Displays and Emergency Help panels. The locations of these files
are decided by the user. The default paths are:
Real-Time display snapshots are stored as HTML files in the following
default path:
<x>:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\WClient\Apps\Reporting\Realtime\
Exports
Emergency Help snapshots are stored as HTML files in the following
default path:
<x>:\Program Files\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\EmergencyHelp\Exports
Finally, to manually back up ADAM instance files, take a copy of the following
directory and its contents:
Create a Platform Recovery Disk to gather required information from the server,
such as its setup record and database configuration. The Platform Recovery Disk
contains the file MigInfo.txt, which includes important details about how the
server is configured.
Even if a Platform Recovery Disk is available, ensure you create a new one to
include the latest PEPs and SUs.
3 In the Create Platform Recovery Disk section, perform one of the following
tasks:
To save the Platform Recovery Disk to a floppy disk:
a. Insert a blank floppy disk in drive A.
b. Click Create Disk.
Result: The following message appears.
c. Click OK.
To save the Platform Recovery Disk to a remote directory:
a. Map a network drive to the remote directory.
Note: The name of the remote directory into which you save the Platform
Recovery Disk must not contain any spaces. Spaces in the remote
directory name cause errors.
b. Click Browse, and then navigate to the mapped network drive.
c. Select the drive, and then click OK.
d. Click Create Disk.
Result: The system creates the Platform Recovery Disk. The following
window appears.
e. Click OK.
4 Click OK. If you used a floppy disk, remove it from the drive, and ensure it
is labeled clearly.
5 Close the Contact Center Manager Server Setup Configuration Utility
window.
6 Store the Platform Recovery Disk in a safe place.
Because these settings do not change often and cannot be backed up using
backup procedures, Nortel recommends that you take note of the Real Time
Reporting Configuration settings (IP Send and IP Receive Addresses) and the
Emergency Help Configuration settings whenever these settings change (for
example, after installing or upgrading Contact Center Manager Administration).
These settings must be manually reconfigured during a restoration process.
You can back up the Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 database in the
following two ways:
1. Use the NCCT 6.0 Console Database Admin snap-in. See “Backing up the
CCT database using the NCCT 6.0 Console NCCT Maintenance” on page
1821.
2. Use the DBComd.exe file to schedule backups and restores. The
DBComd.exe file is in the Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 root

that the DBComd.exe file creates. This log file is in the folder where you
installed Communication Control Toolkit 6.0 (for example, C:\Program
Files\Nortel\Communication Control Toolkit/NCCT_DBMaintenance.log).
You must complete the base configuration of your new server before you can
install Release 6.0 of Contact Center Manager Server and restore your
database.
Reviewing the Release 6.0 server requirements and set up the tape
drive on the new server
1 Review the list of requirements for a Release 6.0 server, and ensure that
your server meets each requirement.
2 If the new platform is equipped with a tape drive and driver software that is
not compatible with that of the original server, then remove the tape drive
and install a compatible drive and its driver software on the new platform.
For more information, see the maintenance guide for your hardware
platform.
CAUTION
If you move the original platform tape drive to the new platform, ensure that
the database backup of the original platform is complete before you remove
the drive.
3 Ensure that the new platform is disconnected from the network of the
original platform (both ELAN Subnet and Nortel server subnet). The new
platform can remain disconnected until the upgrade procedure is
completed.
Note: Nortel recommends that you test your network connection before you
prepare your new server for full service. Disconnect the original server
network (both Nortel server subnet and ELAN subnet) connections, to
ensure that no conflict between the IP address and the computer name of
the original server and the new server exist, test the network drivers and
TCP/IP stack. For more information, see the tip on checking your TCP/IP
stack in “Resolving the failed ping” on page 3009.
You must perform a fresh install of Windows Server 2003 on the new server.
Use the following checklist to perform a new installation of Windows Server
2003.
When you install Windows Server 2003, remember to:
delete all existing partitions on the primary drives (do not alter the disabled
drives) and format the drives
create a new drive C partition on which to install the Windows Server 2003
operating system
configure the LAN network cards with the same network IP configuration
(for example, IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and so on) as on
the original server. See the TCP/IP parameter information in the
MigInfo.txt file on the Platform Recovery Disk.
On the new server, you can use a different computer name and different
IP addresses than on the original server. However if you are installing
the server in a networked environment, Nortel recommends that you use
the original computer name and IP addresses (Nortel server subnet and
ELAN Subnet) on your new server. See the information in the
MigInfo.txt file on the Platform Recovery Disk.
check that the Virtual Memory allocation (swap file) on the new server is
RAM size times 1.5. Set both the initial and maximum size to this value.
partition the disks to at least the minimum recommended size (for more
information, see the Nortel Contact Center Manager Planning and
Engineering Guide)
check that the new server is installed with tape driver software that is
compatible with Windows Server 2003. If it is not compatible, you cannot
restore your database.

ATTENTION
Incorrectly modifying a host table on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server can cause extensive network
problems. Before you modify host tables, you must review
the detailed information about HOSTS in the supporting
documentation for Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
1 Access the sample HOSTS tables provided with the Windows Server 2003
installation in the following directory:
<x>:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc
2 Double-click the HOSTS file and open the file with a text editor (for
example, Notepad) to modify the host tables.
ATTENTION You do not have to use host tables for name resolution if
the names of the Contact Center Manager Servers are
registered on a DNS server.
Result: The text editor displays the HOSTS table. The HOSTS table
consists of a list of IP addresses followed by a computer name. A sample
HOSTS table is provided in the following image as a guideline, but is not
intended to indicate exactly how the HOSTS tables can be configured on
the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
3 At the end of the file, type the IP address and computer name of:
each Contact Center Manager Server
each Network Control Center Server (NCCs)
Note: Separate the two values by using the space or the tab key. HOSTS
tables are case-sensitive.
To help create such a process, you can follow a series of best practices
guidelines, as documented in the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) Special Bulletin 800-40, Procedures for Handling Security Patches.
This bulletin suggests that if an organization does not have a centralized group
to coordinate the storage, evaluation, and chronicling of security patches into a
library, system administrators or the contact centre administrator must fulfil this
role.
Nortel recommends that you follow the security guidelines for Contact Center
Manager Administration, and see the latest Contact Center Portfolio Service
Packs Compatibility and Security Hotfixes Applicability List available at
www.nortel.com.
If Contact Center Manager Administration does not function properly after you
apply a Microsoft security patch, you must remove the patch and revert to the
previous version of Contact Center Manager Administration (from the backup
you made before applying the patch). For added security, always check to see if
Nortel verified the Microsoft patch for its compatibility with Contact Center
Manager Administration.
In order for the Report Creation Wizard component of Contact Center Manager
Administration to function, IIS must be configured to support ASP.NET
applications.
If you installed and configured IIS with Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
and ASP.NET on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, proceed to
Step 16. “Ensure the computer name and DNS host name match” on page 1854.
If you do not perform this task, the following error message appears when you
attempt to launch Report Creation Wizard:

You must ensure your server computer name and DNS host name match exactly,
including uppercase and lowercase letters. If these names do not match, you
cannot install the Contact Center Manager Server database software.
A mismatch in these names can occur, for example, if you perform a new
installation of the operating system and enter the computer name in uppercase
letters. In Windows, your entry is used to set both the computer name and the
DNS host name. However, after the operating system is installed, you find that
Windows set the DNS host name in uppercase letters as you entered it, but that
the computer name is set in all lowercase letters. Use the following procedures
to check the names and, if necessary, change them.
4 Write down the Full computer name exactly as it appears, including case.
Note: Ignore the period at the end of the Full computer name.
5 Click Change.

folder located on the Contact Center Manager installation DVD.
After you install Contact Center Manager Administration, you must install all
required hot fixes in the Contact Center Manager Administration Hot Fix folder
to ensure that Contact Center Manager Administration functions correctly.
ATTENTION
When you are installing the Service Update,
take note of the Administrator account with
which you are currently logged on to the server.
If you have multiple Administrator accounts,
you must ensure that you always use the same
account to install or uninstall Service Updates,
Service Update Supplements, and any designer
fixes or patches on the server. If you install an
update with one account, and then try to install
the next update or uninstall the current patch
while logged on as a different account, the
installation or uninstallation fails.
3 Download the same Service Update as is on the source server. Save the
file on the Contact Center Manager Administration server. Service Updates
are packaged as self extracting executable files.
4 Extract the contents of the executable file to the location of your choice by
running the executable file.
5 Double-click the Service Update .msi file to start the installation. An
example of a Service Update file name is CCMA_6.0_SU_02.msi.

Note:
The readme file contains important information about the update that
you are installing, such as a list of dependent patches, any pre- or
postinstallation tasks that you need to perform, or the need to stop any
services manually. Nortel recommends that you read the file before
installing the patch.
Note:
If you are installing a new Service Update on a server that contains an
existing Service Update and perhaps some Service Update
Supplements, the system removes these patches before installing the
new one. The Installed patches found window appears, listing the
current installed patches.
Click Next to remove the patches. When the system finishes removing
the patches, the installation of the new patch proceeds. See step 7 on
page 2003.
The Files in Use window appears if files are open that the installation
program needs to update. You must close the files shown in the
window, and then click Retry to continue with the upgrade.
8 Click Install.
Result: The Installing window appears, showing you the progress of the
installation.
To protect your system from unauthorized access, change the passwords for the
Nortel user accounts as soon as you finish the installation.
NGenDist and NGenDesign are Windows remote access accounts that enable
the distributor or Nortel customer support to remotely log on to the server if
requested by the customer. These accounts are created during the server
software installation. To ensure server security, change the NGenDist and
NGenDesign passwords.
ATTENTION
The on-site installer is instructed to change all default
passwords as part of the on-site installation procedures.
You can change all passwords with the procedures in this
section. Nortel recommends that you change all passwords
regularly to maintain system security.
If server software is reinstalled, the default accounts and
passwords are recreated and passwords must be changed.
6 Click Proceed.
Result: The Properties window appears.
7 In the Password box, type the new password.
Note: Ensure that you use a password that contains a combination of
numbers and letters (see “Password guidelines” on page 2492).

Password box.
9 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
10 Click OK
11 Repeat steps 4 to 10 for NGenDesign and NGenSys.
12 Select Exit to save changes.
13 Record these passwords and store them in a secure place away from the
server.
If you changed the NGenSys password, continue with the following
procedure.
ATTENTION
When you are finished changing passwords, remember
to log on as NGenSys. You must be logged on as
NGenSys to monitor and manage the server.
5 Click the Log On tab, and then fill in the Password and Confirm Password
boxes with the current NGenSys password.
Note: Use the same password you assigned to NGenSys in “Changing the
NGenDist, NGenDesign, or NGenSys passwords” on page 2005.
6 Click OK.
ATTENTION
When you are finished, remember to log on as NGenSys.
You must be logged on as NGenSys to monitor and
manage the server.
Password security
Write down the new passwords you create, and store them in a safe, secure place
away from the server. Give the passwords only to those who need them.
ATTENTION
If your server computer is on a workgroup, complete this
step. If you intend to add your server to a domain, see Step
32. “Change the NGenDist, NGenDesign, or NGenSys
passwords” on page 2004 for information about configuring
the NGen user groups for remote access in a domain
environment.
When you create a Platform Recovery Disk, the system saves both server and
database configuration data into a series of text files. You must keep an up-to-
date Platform Recovery Disk available in case you need to recover your server
software, database, or both. You also need this disk for upgrade and migration
procedures. Nortel recommends you create a Platform Recovery disk after any
major modifications to the system.
You can create a Platform Recovery Disk on either a floppy disk or a remote
directory on a network computer.
If you want to use a remote computer, you must first map the directory on the
network computer to a network drive on your server. The name of the remote
directory into which you save the Platform Recovery Disk must not contain any
spaces. Spaces in the remote directory name cause errors.
The Platform Recovery Disk contains the following support files:
dbdvc.txt
dbseg.txt
MigInfo.txt
rbackup.txt
4 In the Create Platform Recovery Disk section, perform one of the following
tasks:
To save the Platform Recovery Disk to a floppy disk:
a. Insert a blank floppy disk in drive A.
b. Click Create Disk.
Result: The following message appears.
c. Click OK.
To save the Platform Recovery Disk to a remote directory:
e. Click OK.
Note: The system also checks for database segmentation problems. If it
finds any, a message indicating the type of problem appears.
If the system finds a database data segmentation overlapping problem,
then it advises you to contact Nortel customer support before you
proceed with the migration procedure. After customer support fixes the
problem, you must create a new Platform Recovery Disk before you
proceed with the migration.
If the system finds a database log segmentation overlapping problem,
then you can still use the Platform Recovery Disk that you just created.
The system prompts you to shut down the Symposium Call Center
Server services so it can fix the problem. Follow the on-screen prompt
to shut down the services.
5 Click OK. If you used a floppy disk, remove it from the drive, and ensure it
is labeled clearly.

5 Click OK.
6 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
The Use Login Warning Message setting is server-specific.
If the Contact Center Manager Server is part of a networked
Contact Center, this setting needs to be set on each Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
The IP multicast address that the server in Contact Center Manager Server uses
to send data must be configured on Contact Center Manager Server. This
address is listed in the IP Multicast Group box.
The unicast communication option applies only between the Contact Center
Manager Administration server and the client PCs. Because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server receives all the raw data from each server in
Contact Center Manager Server through multicast channels, this network
segment must always be multicast-enabled.
If you choose, at a later date, to multicast-enable your entire network, you can
do so without upgrading Contact Center Manager Administration.
This type of data transmission enables users to view nodal Real-Time Displays,
network-consolidated Real-Time Displays, Agent Desktop Display, and
Emergency Help notifications on the client PCs.
Real-Time displays viewed on one client PC that use the same data stream share
a single connection to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (for
example, a standard agent display and a private agent display both use the agent
moving window stream and can share a single unicast connection). Therefore,
for n client displays of different statistical types, n separate data streams in
operation, which introduces additional traffic on the network.
If a client opens a collection display (six displays in one screen), several unicast
channels are opened from the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
the client computer, one for each statistic type in the collection.
Agent Desktop Display and Emergency Help notifications are not available on
client PCs that receive only unicast data.
4 In the IP Receive Address and IP Send Address boxes, type the correct
address information.
Note: The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending and
receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and 239.255.255.255 range. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast addresses for
your specific network.
5 Accept the default values in the Output Rate box (5000) and the Transform
Rate box (1000). You can adjust the default values; however, reducing the
Output Rate value and the Transform Rate value increases the workload
on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
Note: The fastest rate at which multicast data from Contact Center
Manager Server reaches the end user in Contact Center Manager
Administration is equal to the highest value among the following settings:
the Multicast Rate at which data is sent from Contact Center Manager
Server to the Contact Center Manager Administration server (For more
information about Multicast Rates, see the Contact Center Manager
Planning and Engineering Guide.)
the Output Rate at which the Contact Center Manager Administration
server sends data to client PCs
Example
If the Contact Center Manager Server Multicast Rate is set to 2
seconds, the Contact Center Manager Administration server Transform
Rate is set to 1 second, and the Contact Center Manager Administration
server Output Rate is 7 seconds, then the data on the client PC is not
refreshed faster than every 7 seconds, regardless of the refresh rate
that the user chose in Real-Time Reporting.
If you want to decrease the length of time required for real-time statistics
to reach client PCs, you can decrease the Output Rate and Transform
Rate values; however, this impacts performance on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Notify users of the Real-Time Reporting
component of these rates so they can adjust the refresh rate
accordingly. For more information about adjusting rates and assessing
performance, see the Capacity Assessment Tool (CapTool) chapter of
the Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
6 Accept the default value in the OAM Timeout box (10000).
7 Nortel recommends that you leave the Compress Realtime Data Packets
check box selected, which is the default setting. If you clear this check
mark, then you disable real-time data packet compression.
8 In the Transmission Options area, click the button beside the transmission
mode that is required for the site. Choose one of:
Multicast only if your network supports multicast traffic (recommended),
and proceed to step 11.
Unicast only if you do not want any multicast traffic on your network,
and proceed to step 9.
Multicast and Unicast if you want to support both transmission types,
and proceed to step 9.
9 If you select either Unicast or Multicast and Unicast, the Maximum Unicast
Sessions area appears at the lower section of the window.
Note: The value that you type in this box is used to limit the number of
client sessions and, as a result, the network bandwidth usage. Since each
open display adds CPU load on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server, and adds to the overall bandwidth usage on the
network, you must limit the number of client sessions by typing the number
in this box. After this limit is reached, no further unicast real-time
connections are accepted until one of the existing streams is closed. An
error message is logged on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server to indicate the limit is reached, and a message appears on the client
indicating that the connection is not allowed. For guidance on entering the
appropriate value, see the Contact Center Manager Administration
Technical Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.
11 Click the Restart Real Time Reporting Service check box to select it.
12 Click OK.
Result: The Restart ICERtdService status window appears while the
service is restarting, and closes after the service restarts successfully.
13 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
ATTENTION
Nortel recommends that you take note of your Real-Time
Reporting Configuration settings whenever these settings
are changed (for example, after installing or upgrading
Contact Center Manager Administration). If you need to
restore your Contact Center Manager Administration data,
you must reconfigure these settings manually.
The Emergency Help component functions only if you are using the multicast
communication method from the Contact Center Manager Administration server
to the client PC.
If you are configuring a replicating server, you must ensure that the Emergency
Help Configuration settings on the replicating server match the Emergency Help
Configuration settings on the primary server.

Option 1—You can create a shared folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server for exporting scheduled reports.
Option 2—You can create a shared folder on the client PC for exporting
scheduled reports.
Granting change and read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is
iceAdmin or domain account) provides only a higher level of security. However,
granting change and read permissions to the Everyone group provides more
flexibility because Contact Center Manager Administration users can download
exported report output files from the shared folder without special permissions.
Choose the option that is most appropriate for the security policy of your
organization.

scheduled report account (that is, iceAdmin or domain account), follow
these steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
store the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the scheduled report account (that is,
iceAdmin or domain account) on the folder
2. To create a shared folder with change and read permissions to Everyone
account on the Contact Center Manager Administration server, follow these
steps:
Create a folder on the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
store the exported scheduled report file from scheduled reports.
Right-click on the target folder and grant change/read permissions to
Everyone.
Scheduled reports use the local administrator account named iceAdmin or the
domain account set up by the administrator in the iceAdmin Password Change
Utility to run, print and export the scheduled report.
The reports are exported locally to the shared folder on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server. Contact Center Manager Administration users
require read permission on the Contact Center Manager Administration's shared
folder to copy the exported report files to their desktops/client PCs.
To enable users to access the saved report file, you must grant each user
read/delete access rights to this folder on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server (or alternately, create separate shared folders with read/
delete access for each applicable user). For details about configuring user access
privileges, see the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.

Administration server iceAdmin Password scheduled report to
configuration Change Utility) client PC
You can export only scheduled reports to client PCs that are within the same
domain as the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
To export scheduled reports to the client PC, you must first create a shared
folder on the client PC, and grant change and read permissions to the scheduled
reports account group (that is, iceAdmin or the domain account set up by the
administrator using the iceAdmin Password Change Utility).
1. To create a shared target folder with change and read permissions to the
iceAdmin account, follow these steps:
Click Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users
and Groups > Users.
Create a new user iceAdmin with the same password as on Contact
Center Manager Administration server
Create a folder on the client PC to store the exported scheduled report
file from the Contact Center Manager Administration scheduled reports.
Grant change/read permissions to the local iceAdmin account on the
folder
This option does not work when the client PC is outside the domain of the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. In this scenario, you must add
the client PC to the network domain of the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
To export scheduled report files to a client PC, in the Output box on the Report
Properties window, type the path to the shared folder to which the report is sent.
The path must have the format \\<client PC computer name>\<shared folder
name>\<file name>, without the file extension. Alternatively, you can use the
Browse button to select your shared folder for export file.
For example, to export the Agent Performance report to a shared folder on the
client PC where the client PC computer name is clientpc, the shared folder name
is reports, and the report name is agent, type \\clientpc\reports\agent in the
Output box.
For details about configuring user access privileges, see the Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 documentation. If you require additional information about creating
and mapping folders, see your Microsoft documentation.
However, if you make changes to the original report on the network computer
after you import it into Contact Center Manager Administration, these changes
are not reflected in the imported report unless you select Synchronize report
template from the network drive in the template importing wizard. If you select
this value when importing the report, then, when you subsequently run the
imported report in Contact Center Manager Administration (either as needed or
scheduled), the system checks the network folder in which the original report is
stored to see if any changes are made to it. If the original report changed, then
the system synchronizes these changes with the imported report before running
it. This process is automatic and invisible to the user.
If you made changes to several original reports after importing them into
Contact Center Manager Administration, you can manually synchronize the
changes with the imported reports all at once by using the Synchronize User
Imported Report Templates window in Contact Center Manager Administration.
In this window, when you click Submit, the system synchronizes the changes
that you made to all original reports stored in shared folders on a client PC with
the copies stored on the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
However, because this can be a lengthy process (based on the number of
reports), and to avoid corrupting any existing reports, Nortel recommends that
you do so only when no reports are running (either as needed or scheduled).
Before you can use the report synchronization feature, you must set up the
shared folder on the client PC with the appropriate access privileges according
to the security policy for your organization.
ATTENTION
When the Contact Center Manager Administration server
is part of a network domain, the user imported reports
(only when run as scheduled reports) cannot be
synchronized automatically because the Contact Center
Manager Administration server account that is used for
scheduled reports, iceAdmin, cannot have access to the
network directory. In this scenario, to synchronize the
affected user imported reports, follow the procedure “To
manually synchronize changes made to user imported
templates” in the Contact Center Manager Administration
online Help, or run the report as needed whenever the
original report template is modified on the source
network location.

server. For details, see “Option 2: Sharing the network folder with Read
permissions for the domain/directory security account used for Contact
Center Manager Administration server” on page 2089.
Choose the option that best suits your company security policy.
Option 1: Sharing the folder with read permissions for the Everyone
account and enable Guest account on the client PC
To perform this procedure, your server and the client PC must be members of
the same network domain. Additionally, the directory security account of the
server's default Web site must be set to the network domain account. If you are
using the IUSR_SWC account, you must replace it with the network domain
account for the IIS directory security. Therefore, you must complete the steps in
the procedure“Setting the directory security account of the server default Web
site to the network domain account” on page 2079, before you begin this
procedure.

You have four options for restoring data if a server fails or if you need to revert
to a previous snapshot of Contact Center Manager Administration data:
Option 1—Restoring data using the Nortel Backup and Restore utility
For details, see “Option 1: Restoring Contact Center Manager
Administration data with the Nortel Backup and Restore utility” on page
2122.
Option 2—Restoring data using the Windows Backup Tool
For details, see “Option 2: Restoring data files using the Windows Backup
tool” on page 2127.
Option 3—Restoring data by manually restoring files
For details, see “Option 3: Restoring files by manually restoring files” on
page 2130.
Option 4—Restoring data using a third-party tool such as Veritas
Backup 9.1
For details, see “Option 4: Restoring files using the Veritas Backup Exec
9.1 tool” on page 2131.
ATTENTION
When restoring Contact Center Manager Administration
data, you must restore data that was backed up from the
same release and version of the software as that which is
currently installed on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server. For example, if your Contact Center
Manager Administration server currently contains Contact
Center Manager Administration Release 6.0, then you can
restore only a backup of Release 6.0 data onto this server.
You cannot restore data from previous Service Updates. If
you restore data backed up on previous versions, you can
corrupt your server.
You can use the instructions in this section to restore Contact Center Manager
Administration data from a primary server and restore the same data to a new
Contact Center Manager Administration server. You can use this procedures
in this section to:
recover from a system failure if your Contact Center Manager
Administration server fails completely (for example, due to serious
hardware failure)
restore data to the replicating server if you have a failure on your primary
server
restore Contact Center Manager Administration data onto the same server
from which it was backed up (for example, if you want to roll back
erroneous data or you are recovering from a data loss issue)
restore Contact Center Manager Administration data to a new server if
you are performing a data migration from an existing server to a new server
ATTENTION
If you are restoring data on a server that does not have
replication enabled, you must shut down the
SymposiumWC service before starting the restoration
procedure.
You must also retain the permission properties of the
ADAM data directory and ADAM files if you restore these
files (for example, you must retain permissions such as
NETWORK SERVICE). If you do not maintain permission
properties, the SymposiumWC service do not start.
You must manually restart the SymposiumWC service after
you complete the restoration.
1 On the Contact Center Manager Administration server, click Start > All
Programs > Nortel Contact Center > Manager Administration >
Configuration.
Result: The Nortel Configuration window appears.
2 In the left pane, click Nortel Networks.
Result: The Nortel Networks Applications Configuration window appears.
7 In the left pane, select the most recent backup file (or the file containing the
data that you want to restore, if not the most recent file).
8 Expand this file fully by clicking the plus sign (+) beside it. The file name
expands to reveal a series of files.
9 Place a check mark beside the files that you want to restore. To select all
the files, place a check mark beside the parent file name.
Note: When restoring data on a server on which ADAM replication is
enabled, you must not restore any ADAM-specific data, or you overwrite
the replicated data. If you did not clear the two locations C:\Program
Files\Microsoft ADAM\SymposiumWC\ and C:\WINDOWS\ADAM when
you performed a backup, you must clear these files from the list of files to
be restored so that they are not restored to the replicating server. When
you clear these files, a gray check mark remains beside them, indicating
that they are not going to be restored, as shown in the figure Restore and
Manage Media.
10 Ensure that the option to always replace the files on the computer is
selected.
11 Ensure that Original location appears in the Restore files to list.
You must manually restart the SymposiumWC service after you complete the
restoration.

ATTENTION
If you are restoring data on a server that does not have
replication enabled, you must shut down the
SymposiumWC service before starting the restoration
procedure.
You must also retain the permission properties of the
ADAM data directory and ADAM files if you restore these
files (for example, you must retain permissions such as
NETWORK SERVICE). If you do not maintain permission
properties, the SymposiumWC service do not start.
You must manually restart the SymposiumWC service after
you complete the restoration.
Option 4: Restoring files using the Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 tool
ATTENTION
Do not install the Veritas Backup 9.1 software on co-
resident systems containing Contact Center Manager
Server and Contact Center Manager Administration as it
prevents the NBNM service from starting up. In addition
to this problem, if you use Veritas Backup 9.1 to restore
Contact Center Manager Server data on a co-resident
system, it has an adverse effect on the operation of the
system and can require a complete system rebuild.
Nortel also tested the Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 tool (build 4691), which can be
used instead of the Microsoft Windows Backup Tool to back up and restore the
Contact Center Manager Server data. Several other third-party tools are
available that can perform a similar function; choose the tool that best suits your
organization.
If you use Veritas to restore Contact Center Manager Server data, you must note
the following:
You must stop the SymposiumWC service prior to restoring from a Veritas
backup file. You must also ensure that “Restore over existing files” is
selected in the general properties for the restore job. For more information,
consult the Veritas application online Help.
The default installation of Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 uses the TCP port
10000, which is also the default port used by the Contact Center Manager
Server Toolkit NameService. This conflict results in Contact Center
Manager Server malfunctioning (administrative changes, such as agent and
skillset name changes, are not updated in real time, requiring you to restart
the ICERTDService to refresh the cache).
To avoid this conflict, before you use Veritas, you must change the default
port that it uses to another port number of your choice (the Contact Center
Manager Server Toolkit NameService port number cannot be changed at
this time). When changing the port number, you must first investigate the
ports that are currently used by all the products in your network (both
Nortel and third-party products). Then choose a port that does not cause a
conflict between any of these products.
For a list of ports used by Contact Center Manager Server, see the Contact
Center Manager Administration Technical Requirements and Operating
System Configuration Guide. For instructions on changing the Veritas
Backup Exec default port number, see the Veritas support article located at
www.seer.support.veritas.com.
To avoid potential problems with Veritas Backup Exec 9.1, check
www.seer.support.veritas.com for recommended service packs and consult
www.nortel.com for the latest supported Veritas hotfix and/or service pack
with Contact Center Manager Server.
Ensure that your version of the Veritas software supports the backup and
restore of the Windows Server 2003 ADAM data files. Nortel tested build
4691 of the Backup Exec software.
Ensure that your version of Backup Exec has the Microsoft Volume
Shadow Copy Service installed. When restoring files, you must select
Shadow Copy Components, as well as any hard drive components
(Contact Center Manager Server folders).
When restoring data, you must ensure that “Restore over existing files” is
selected in the general properties for the restore job.
When you restore the Contact Center Manager Server ADAM files
(Shadow Copy Components), the SymposiumWC service is stopped
automatically. You must manually restart the service after the restoration is
complete.
After restoring your data, you must perform the following tasks:
Manually reconfigure your Real-Time Reporting and Emergency Help
configuration settings. These settings must the same as they were prior to
the data restoration.
Reactivate scheduled assignments.
Launch the Historical Reporting component in Contact Center Manager
Server. In the scheduled events window, select all scheduled
assignments and click Activate.
Launch the Contact Center Management component in Contact Center
Manager Server. Open each scheduled assignment and reactivate.
For more detailed information, consult the online Help on the Veritas
Web site at www.veritas.com.
ATTENTION
You must complete this step. If you do not manually
refresh all Contact Center Manager Servers after upgrading
to Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0, your
Contact Center Manager Administration cannot function
correctly.
If one of the following situations occurs, use the Refresh All Servers function to
refresh all servers at the same time:
You upgraded from Symposium Web Client 4.5 SUS0601 v1 or later, or
upgraded from a previous version of Contact Center Manager Server.
The Contact Center Manager Server Server is changed to connect to a
standby Contact Center Manager Server.
You upgraded the Symposium Call Center Server or Contact Center
Manager Server.
You installed or uninstalled a Service Update (SU) on the Contact Center
Manager Server.
A new license file is issued and accepted by Contact Center Manager
Server, or you connect to a different License Manager Server (that is, a new
or standby License Manager server).
If you changed the password of sysadmin in the Server Utility, you must change
the password in that server.
ATTENTION
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit,
delete and refresh servers in Contact Center Manager
Server. When you refresh a server, you refresh Contact
Center Manager Server data associated with that server in
ADAM, such as release number, feature list, and
networking information.
4 Click Yes.
5 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes all servers in the system tree. A message is
displayed in the information bar at the bottom of the screen which lists the
servers that are successfully refreshed and the servers that did not refresh.
An entry specifying the servers that successfully refreshed also appear in
the Audit Trail.
The latest versions of the user guides associated with the Contact Center 6.0
suite of products are available on Helmsman, the Nortel documentation
collection Web site (www.nortel.com/helmsman).
This step is required only if you want to change the computer name after
installation. For example, after installing the application on the target server, you
may want to revert to the computer name of source server. If you do not want to
change the computer name after installation, you can skip this step and proceed
directly to Step 53. “Ensure the CCMA computer name is correct on client PCs”
on page 2148.
If you change the computer name of the Contact Center Manager Administration
server after installation, you need perform post-change tasks to successfully
connect to a Contact Center Manager Administration server with a new name.
The tips for changing the computer name and suggested post-change tasks vary
based on whether the server is co-resident with Contact Center Manager Server
or stand-alone. See the appropriate following scenario for a list of the required
tasks.
ATTENTION
You must update your Domain Name Server (DNS) or
HOSTS table to reflect the new name of the Contact Center
Manager Administration server for your Contact Center
Manager Administration to function correctly. For
information about updating the DNS or the HOSTS table,
see the Contact Center Manager Administration Technical
Requirements and Operating System Configuration Guide.

Toolkit designed for the Communication Server 1000/Meridian 1 switch on
your server.
5 If you find error messages in this file, you must reinstall the Communication
Control Toolkit server.
You must restore the TAPI database for either the CS 1000/M1 switch or the CS
2X00/DMS switch from the backup location where the TAPI files were copied.
You must restore the TAPI SP database before you restore the Communication
Control Toolkit database.
If you are working with a CS 2X00/DMS switch, do not complete this step.
Instead, proceed to Step 59. “Configure TAPI for CCT 6.0 with a CS 2X00/
DMS switch” on page 2187.
Confirm that any legacy TAPI Service Provider clients are still working on the
new server.
ATTENTION
Do not install or run the tcmsetup utility on your
Communication Control Toolkit server. If you run the
tcmsetup utility on the Communication Control Toolkit
server at any time, type the following command in a
command prompt window to disable the utility:
tcmsetup /c /d.
This step describes how to configure the elements of the TAPI environment:
1. Ensure that the telephony service starts.
2. Configure the Symposium TAPI Service Provider using the configuration
application.
3. Prepare the TAPI environment (required for legacy TAPI clients).
4. Add lines to TAPI clients.
1 From the Start menu, choose All Programs > Administrative Tools >
Services.
Result: The Services window appears.
2 If the Telephony service is not enabled, right-click Telephony, and then
click Start.
You can use the About tab to identify the current version of the TAPI service
provider.
2 In the Application Name box, type the MLSM application name (if a name
other than the default is required).
Note: You can enter up to 19 ASCII characters to identify the provider
application. If you enter more than 19 characters, Meridian Link Services
cannot operate. You must enter a different name for each TAPI server
connecting to Contact Center Manager Server.
3 Enter the following timeout values:
Tip: The default values are sufficient for 50 users, but you must increase
these values if you add more than 50 users:
Initialization—The length of time that Symposium TAPI SP waits to
establish communication with the switch before generating an error. The
default and minimum value is 32 seconds. If you use a large number of
lines, you must increase this value accordingly.
Shutdown—The length of time that Symposium TAPI SP waits for
shutdown to complete before generating an error. The default value and
minimum value is 32 seconds.
Command—The length of time that Symposium TAPI SP waits for a
command response before generating an error. The default and
minimum value is 5 seconds.
4 In the Size box, enter the maximum number of bytes stored as call data.
Note: The default size is 512 bytes, but Nortel recommends that you
change this size to 4096 bytes, the maximum size. The TAPI call data
setting limits only the size of the call data within the TAPI component.
The TAPI call data setting in CONFIG.exe limits the size of call data within
the TAPI component only. Limiting the size of call data impacts call data
sent to legacy TAPI clients, such as Symposium Agent or Contact Center
Multimedia agents, and impacts call data sent using TAPI networking.
While call data attached by Communication Control Toolkit clients and
Communication Control Toolkit sent to Communication Control Toolkit
clients do not have this limitation, exceeding the TAPI call data impacts the
call data sent between nodes using TAPI networking and the call data that
appears on consult calls. Nortel recommends that the size of call data
always remains within the TAPI call data limit to avoid inconsistencies in
the call data associated with the contact.
5 In the Life Span box, enter the length of time that call data must be stored.
The default is 10 minutes. This value must be less than the time it takes to
recycle the CS 1000/Meridian 1 Call IDs.
6 Select the Disable copy of call data to consultative call check box
(optional).
You can still copy call data when calls are transferred or conferenced.
7 From the Log Style list, select an alternative log style, if required, to use for
troubleshooting.
The default style is 0. You can create new log styles in the Log Styles
page as required.
8 Click OK to save the information in the provider table.
Result: The timeout values are added.
3 Enter the customer number for the switch, and then click Add.
Result: The following window appears.
In the Host Name box, Nortel recommends that you keep the default host
name. This box contains the Contact Center Manager Server or CS 1000/
Meridian 1 host name.
Note: Nortel recommends that you do not change the default setting. The
host name is case-sensitive, containing a maximum of 20 characters that
represent the host name.
4 In the Host Address box, enter one of the following values:
In a Contact Center environment, enter the host address, which is the IP
address of the Contact Center Manager Server.
In a direct-connect environment, enter the host address, which is the IP
address of the ELAN port on the CS 1000/Meridian 1 switch.
5 In the Meridian Link Release list, select the correct release of Meridian
Link.
ATTENTION
This port number must match the port number configured
in the Meridian Link Services. In a Contact Center
Manager Server configuration, accept the default (3000).
For a direct-connect configuration, change the entry to
8888.
9 In the Customer Number box, enter the Customer number. Your customer
number is configured on your switch.
Note: If multiple customers are configured, you can specify a particular one
in this field.
10 Leave the Registration Password box blank. This box is not required for
Communication Control Toolkit.
11 In the Polling Interval box, enter the Polling interval.

Note: Nortel recommends using a user name and password that are
different from NGenDist and NGenDesign. The network administrator can
be required to carry out this step. Record the user name and password
carefully as they are required to remotely support the Contact Center
Manager Server Release 6.0 server.
2 On the Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0 server, no changes
are required to the operating system, RAS configuration, server software,
or pcAnywhere installation.
3 When you dial in to the Release 6.0 server of Contact Center Manager
Server, the system prompts the remote user for a domain user account and
password. After the Domain controller authenticates the domain user
account and password, you can start the pcAnywhere session.The
pcAnywhere logon can still use the NGenDist or NGenDesign account.
Note: Since there is no local record of the Domain user account, you must
maintain two user accounts, one is the domain user account, and the other
is the local pcAnywhere account.
Nortel recommends that the time difference between the Communication Server
1000/Meridian 1 PBX and the Domain controller time be kept within a few
seconds (+/- 10 seconds). The maximum difference can be up to 5 minutes
before Kerberos authentication problems can arise. Once a month, check the
times on the CS 1000/Meridian 1and the domain to ensure that the 5-minute
tolerance is not exceeded.
ATTENTION
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit,
and delete servers in Contact Center Manager Server. When
you delete a server, you delete all customized Contact
Center Manager data associated with that server, such as
custom report groups, private Real-Time Displays, and
private report templates. All Contact Center data stored on
the server, such as skillsets, users, and CDNs remains on
the server.
1 On the system tree, select the server that you want to delete.
2 On the menu bar, click Server > Delete Server.
Result: The system asks if you are sure you want to delete the selected
server.
3 Click OK.
Result: The system deletes the server from the system tree.
You can restore a more recently backed-up database (4.2 or 5.0) than the
database when your new Release 6.0 server is ready to go live. For example, if
you upgrade from Contact Center Manager Server Release 4.2 to Release 6.0,
but keep the original Release 4.2 server active, then when your Release 6.0
server goes live, you can restore a more recently backed-up database. You do
not have to perform another migration.
Before you restore a more recently backed-up database, ensure that you note the
sysadmin password you used during the original database restore. If you made a
change to this password you must edit the properties page on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server to reflect the new sysadmin password.
Use the Database Restore utility to perform the database restore.When the
database restore is complete, the Contact Center Manager Server Database
Restore utility automatically launches the Server Setup Configuration utility.
Verify the configuration information, and then complete the configuration
process. Running the server configuration repopulates the database with Release
6.0 data.
When restoring a more recently backed-up Release 6.0 database, you do not
need to run Server Setup Configuration again.
For more information, see “Recovering a recent backup of the database” on page
2419.
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important that all call
statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the
original server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure
that the original server remains offline until you install Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
If you need to transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that you complete the following tasks:
1 Stop the HDM service on the live Symposium Call Center Server. The call
statistics files are stored in the file system for use on the migrated Contact
Center Manager Server.
2 Create a new database back up of Symposium Call Center Server.
3 Restore the new database backup onto the Release 6.0 server.
4 Copy the Symposium Call Center Server interval files to Contact Center
Manager Server.
5 Bring the new Release 6.0 server online. The HDM service on Contact
Center Manager Server adds the interval file data to the Contact Center
Manager Server database. The call statistics are restored.
If you plan to add LinkPlexer to your configuration, see the following section
for installation procedures. For LinkPlexer server requirements, see the Nortel
Contact Center Manager Planning and Engineering Guide.
When you install LinkPlexer co-resident with Contact Center Manager Server,
Nortel recommends that the switch IP address be the same as the Contact Center
Manager Server IP address.

service, the Startup type for the Windows Time service is set to Automatic.
Configure RSM
You must configure the RSM service to provide moving window and interval-
to-date statistics for multicast Real-Time Displays. For instructions to configure
RSM, see Chapter 15, “Install and configure Real-Time Statistics Multicast.”
You must also ensure that the new computer name and DNS host name match,
and that all third-party applications that require a computer name, use the new
Contact Center Manager Server name.
The DialPlan identifies the number of digits of the CDN value that Contact
Center Manager Server uses when the call is routed to the idle agent. The
DialPlan is used when a call currently receiving voice treatment is interrupted
because an idle agent becomes available. The number of digits to dial is the
number of digits a used when dialing the CDN directly from a telephone set.

A full backup is performed while the server is offline. You can create a full
backup
after the installation and configuration of a new server
before and after a major server upgrade (for example, from Release 4.2 to
Release 6.0)
before and after any major hardware upgrades (such as a disk expansion,
BIOS upgrade, or platform migration)
ATTENTION
To create a full backup, you must use a third-party backup
utility. For information about preparing for a third-party
backup, see Section C:“Use a third-party backup utility to
create full backups” on page 2399.
The Contact Center Manager Server backup utility backs up the server database.
You need a database backup to recover from database corruption, or to perform
an upgrade or migration on your server. The backup utility is not intended to
restore individual pieces of information or files that are deleted by accident.

of the backup time is
shorter if less data is in
the database.
If you are using a remote directory to back up your database, read this section to
understand requirements for the remote computer and network.
Network requirements
The remote computer must be on the same network as the server in Contact
Center Manager Server.
The network connection must be through the Nortel server subnet. Ensure
that the Nortel server subnet has low traffic during the scheduled time for
the database backup. If you run the backup when Nortel server subnet
traffic is high, the database backup can take longer than planned.
Tape drives
Use a SCSI tape drive listed on the Microsoft Compatibility List for Windows
Server 2003 or Windows 2000 on the Microsoft Web site. Ensure that the SCSI
ID for the tape drive does not conflict with existing SCSI IDs configured for
other server devices.
You can use 1/4-inch cartridge and 4-mm and 8-mm digital audio (DAT)
formats drives.
Head-cleaning kit
Nortel recommends that you purchase a head-cleaning kit to prolong the life of
your tape heads and ensure the quality of your backups. You must clean tape
drives based on how often they are used.
Tape 1 2 3 4 or more
cartridges
used per day
CAUTION
Ensure that you eject the tape after each backup to prevent
the next backup from overwriting the data.
Tape size
Ensure that the backup tape is large enough to store the data you are backing up.
You cannot use multiple backup tapes for a single backup. For more information
about calculating tape capacity requirements, see “Calculating the capacity
requirements for database backups” on page 2361.
Tape rotation
Rotate tapes daily and store them at an off-site location. Do not keep a tape in
the tape drive for more than one or two days for the following reasons:
The next backup can overwrite existing data on the tape. If you are using
the same tape for several consecutive nightly backups and the tape becomes
damaged, no other backup is available to restore lost data.
Consistent reuse of the same tape accelerates wear on the tape. Tapes need
replacement earlier than their normal life span.
Nortel recommends that you store backup tapes off-site for as long as possible
before reusing them. Store tapes for at least two weeks.
Step ✔
If you are backing up to a tape, ensure that you have the following:
enough backup tapes to rotate them. See page 2354.
a head-cleaning kit. Also ensure that you clean the tape drive
regularly. See page 2354.
Schedule a daily database backup from the Server Utility. See page
2389.
You may also want to plan an offline full backup using a third-party
backup utility.
CAUTION
When you create a Platform Recovery Disk, the system saves both server and
database configuration data into a series of text files. You must keep an up-to-
date Platform Recovery Disk available in case you need to recover your server
software, database, or both. You also need this disk for upgrade and migration
procedures. Nortel recommends you create a Platform Recovery disk after any
major modifications to the system.
You can create a Platform Recovery Disk on either a floppy disk or a remote
directory on a network computer.
If you want to use a remote computer, you must first map the directory on the
network computer to a network drive on your server. The name of the remote
directory into which you save the Platform Recovery Disk must not contain any
spaces. Spaces in the remote directory name cause errors.
4 In the Create Platform Recovery Disk section, perform one of the following
tasks:
If you want to create a Platform Recovery Disk on a floppy disk:
a. Make sure the path shows A:\.
b. Insert a blank floppy disk in drive A.
c. Click Create Disk.
Result: The following message appears.
d. Click OK.
Before you back up the database, you must ensure that the tape or remote
directory used for a database backup has enough capacity to hold the backup
files. To calculate the amount of space required in the tape or remote directory,
you have two options, based on the version of the Contact Center Manager
Server software installed on the computer on which you are performing the
backup.
You can use the DBSpace utility included on the Release 6.0 Server DVD-
ROM. For more information, see “Calculating the capacity requirements for
database backups using the DBSpace utility” on page 2361.
Since the amount of data stored can change between the time when you run this
utility and the time when you back up your database, as an extra precaution, it is
a good idea to add a 15 to 30 percent buffer to the amount shown in the Total
row of the UsedDBSpace column in the utility window.
1 In Windows, open a MS-DOS window.
2 Navigate to D:\Nortel\iccm\bin\dbspace.exe
4 In the window, note the values in the UsedDBSpace column. These values
show the amount of data stored in each database (blue, CBC, and master).
Use the scroll bar to view the bottom portion of the pane where the total
amount is listed. The total value shown in the UsedDBSpace column is the
amount of space that you need available in a tape or remote directory
before you back up the database (plus the 15 to 30 percent buffer to safely
perform the database backups without any space constraints).
5 Click OK to close the window.
Tip: For your reference, the system creates a replica of the utility results
and stores it in a text file called dbspace.txt.

Set up tape backups 2368
Set up remote directory backups 2372
Overview
Before you schedule your database backups, you must determine which backup
option you want to use and set it up on Contact Center Manager Server. Your
options are:
backing up to a remote directory on a network computer
backing up to a tape in a local tape drive
If required, you can switch between these methods; however, you cannot use
both methods simultaneously.
You set your database backup option on Contact Center Manager Server using
the procedures in this section. Then you schedule the backup from the Server
Utility as described in Section B: “Schedule backups,” on page 2387.
Tape backups
Pros Cons
Pros Cons
You can back up your database to a tape in a local tape drive on your Contact
Center Manager Server. You choose the tape backup option through a window
in the server software.
When you do a new installation of the Contact Center Manager Server software,
the default setting is tape backup. If you want to confirm that your server is set
to tape backup, or if you want to change from remote directory backup to tape
backup, use the following procedure.
After you complete these steps, the next scheduled backup goes to the tape
drive.
4 Verify that the backup tape is in the tape drive, and then click Start Backup.
To back up the database now, skip to 5 of this procedure for instructions.
To schedule your backup at a later time, click Cancel, and then see
Section B:“Schedule backups” on page 2387 for instructions to schedule
the backup.
If you want to schedule a backup, see Section B:“Schedule backups” on

Notepad). This file can indicate the source of the problem. Retry the
backup and check the backup log again. If messages or errors still
occur, contact Nortel product support.
To set up a remote directory backup, you must complete the following tasks:
1. Prepare the network computer:
Create a local Windows user account with administrator privileges.
Create a shared directory to contain the remote database backup files.
2. Prepare Contact Center Manager Server:
Create an identical local Windows user account with administrator
privileges.
Add the account to the policy “Log on as a service.”
Enter the account and path information through a window in Contact
Center Manager Server, and deactivate the tape backup option.
After you complete these steps, the next scheduled backup goes to the remote
directory. See the following detailed procedures.
ATTENTION
After you configure the remote directory for backup and
restore, check your configuration before backing up or
restoring the database by following the guidelines listed in
the section “Test the remote directory backup and restore

Overview 2388
Schedule a backup 2389
Monitor backups 2395
Other procedures for backups 2397
Overview
Use the Backup Scheduler on the Server Utility to schedule backups for the
server. No predefined backup schedules are available.
Schedule a backup
To ensure that your system information can be restored after a hardware failure
or data corruption, schedule regular backups. For scheduling suggestions, see
“When to use a database backup” on page 2344.
You can back up your database either to a local tape drive or to a remote
directory on a network computer. You must configure one option on your
Contact Center Manager Server before you schedule a backup. For more
information, see Section A:“Set up backup options” on page 2365.
ATTENTION
In the following procedure, you must select
PrimaryServerTape as the backup device for both tape
backups and remote directory backups.
To recover your system, you must have a Platform Recovery Disk. See
“Creating a Platform Recovery Disk” on page 2357.
Overwrite data
Tape backups
When you schedule a backup to tape, the overwrite option is selected
automatically. This option overwrites any data on the tape. To avoid overwriting
the data after a scheduled backup, remove and replace the tape, labeled it
appropriately, and store it in a safe place.
CAUTION
system.
3 From the Server Utility window, choose System Administration > Server
Backup > Backup Scheduler.
Result: The Backup Scheduler window appears.
Note: This time is required in case a scheduling conflict with other tasks
forces the backup to wait. If the wait time expires before the backup can
start, then the backup is skipped. For example, you can schedule a backup
for a non-peak period, but in 3 hours the morning shift arrives. In this case,
you can enter 03:00 as the interval time. This ensures that the backup does
not take place when the morning shift arrives.
13 Click the Others tab.
Result: The Others property page appears.
14 In the Description box, type the description or the purpose of the backup.
15 Click Save.
Result: The backup is scheduled and a message box appears reminding
you to also schedule a backup for the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
Monitor backups
You can monitor the status of a running backup with the Backup Status window
from the Server Utility. To view the Backup Status window, from the Backup
Scheduler window, select View > View backup status.
If any files are not copied successfully, a minor alarm is generated. Obtain the
Event ID from the alarm in the Alarms Monitor for more information.
D:\Nortel\data\backup\backuplogs
The file name for a backup log is SCCS_Database yymmdd hhmm.LOG, where
yymmdd hhmm is the date and time of the backup (for example, 051117 1415
represents 2:15 p.m. on November 17, 2005).
The contents of the backup log are the same whether you back up to tape or to a
remote directory.
If a database backup is successful, the backup log contains all of the following
messages:
ATTENTION
The text Starting backup of 'SCCS_Database' to
device 'PrimaryServerTape'appears for both tape
backups and remote database backups.
Ensure no error messages appear in the log file. The following example shows a
log file with errors:
You can change any detail of a scheduled backup using the Server Utility
window. You can also delete backups from this window.
If you cancel the backup, you cannot use any data that is written to the backup
device.

Overview 2400
Guidelines for third-party backup software 2401
Prepare for third-party backups 2403
Overview
You can create a full backup so that you can restore Contact Center Manager
Server to its state at the time of the backup. This type of backup is useful for
recovery from situations such as a catastrophic failure in the disk subsystem.
To perform a full backup in Contact Center Manager Server Release 6.0, you
must use a third-party backup utility, such as the Windows backup utility. This
section provides guidelines for selecting the third-party backup software you
want to use, and describes the procedures you must complete before performing
the third-party backup.
The third-party backup software must meet the requirements listed in this
section.
ATTENTION
Services associated with the third-party backup must
not run while Contact Center Manager Server is
running.
If you are using a tape drive for your backups, the third-party backup
system can use a dedicated tape drive, or it can share the tape drive used for
Contact Center Manager Server database backups.
The customer must define a backup and restore process based on the third-party
utility used (for example, Windows backup). This section describes procedures
that must be completed before beginning a full backup using a third-party utility.
See your third-party documentation for information about the full backup
procedure.
When you perform a full backup, you must perform the following steps in the
order listed. Each step is detailed in the following pages:
1. Shut down the Contact Center Manager Server services using the Shutdown
utility.
2. Stop the database services from running by using the Stop Sybase Services
utility.
3. Perform the full backup using the third-party utility of your choice.
4. Start the database services using the Start Sybase Services utility.
5. Start the Contact Center Manager Server services using the Startup utility.
ATTENTION You must shut down the Contact Center Manager Server
Services as outlined in step 1 before shutting down the
database services. Failure to do so can result in
database corruption.
a. From the Start menu, choose Programs > Sybase > Stop Sybase
Services.
Result: The Contact Center Manager Server Shutdown window
appears.
b. Click OK.
Result: The utility shuts down the Sybase backup server, monitor
server, and the Sybase server. When all services are shut down, the
Service Status Log appears.
c. Verify that all services successfully shut down. If you cannot shut down
any services, contact Nortel support personnel.
d. After you shut down the services, click Accept to exit the shutdown
utility, and then proceed with the full backup.
3 Based on the type of backup you want to perform, you have the following
choices:
To perform a full backup of only the database files, proceed to step 7.
To perform a full backup of the database files and the operating system
files, continue with the following step.
4 To back up the entire system (for example, if you want to back up all of the
operating system files in addition to the database files), then, depending on
the backup utility you are using, you need to use the Services window in the
Control Panel to ensure the following services listed are shut down.
Note: Some third-party backup utilities require that you manually shut down
the following services. If you do not shut them down as follows, then some
Windows files are not backed up.
Click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools >
Services.
Result: The following services are shown:
Telephony
TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service
SNMP Service
Simple TCP/IP Services
Server
Protected Storage
Messenger
License Logging Service
5 To shut down the services, select the service, and then click Stop.
6 After complete, click Close on the Services control panel.
7 Back up the server. You must select the following options before starting
the full backup:
verify backup—This ensures that the backup is made successfully.
back up local registry—A required option to back up all the server
configuration details. The third-party backup utility must support registry
backups.
Note: You may want to use the compression option (if available) to ensure
all the data on the server can be backed up.
The following drives must be backed up:
C:\—Windows operating system, pcAnywhere
D:\—Contact Center Manager Server, SysOps.log file, Sybase
executables
all drives greater than and including F:\ - Database drives
ATTENTION
Do not attempt to restart the database services if the
Contact Center Manager Server services are running.
The Contact Center Manager Server services must be
shut down before you start the database services. After
you start the database services, then start the Contact
Center Manager Server services.
a. From the Start menu, choose Programs > Sybase > Start Sybase
Services.
Result: The Contact Center Manager Server Startup window appears.
b. Click OK to start the Sybase services.
Result: The services start up. When all services successfully start, the
Startup Complete window appears.
c. Click OK to exit this window.
4 Start the Contact Center Manager Server services.
a. From the Start menu, choose All Programs > Nortel Contact Center
Manager Server > Startup.
Result: The Contact Center Manager Server Startup window appears.
b. Click OK.
Result: After all services start, the Startup Complete window appears.
c. Click OK to exit the window.

Section B: Recovery using a third-party backup 2443
Overview
A number of recovery methods are available for your system (Contact Center
Manager Server or Network Control Center). The method you choose depends
on the problem you encounter and the backup data and media available to you.
Before using these recovery procedures, check your regional Contact Center
Manager Server technical Web site for updated customer documentation.
ATTENTION
Do not perform unmanned maintenance on the Contact
Center Manager Server. Nortel recommends the Contact
Center Manager Server administrator supervise all
maintenance activities on the server.

Nortel does not recommend this method for recovery. If you are in this situation,
contact Nortel customer support for detailed information. An overview is
provided next.
During the upgrade procedure, you must create a backup of your original server
database. The database backup is an online operation, so the server remains in
service during the backup. However, if the Contact Center continues to respond
to calls after the database backup, then call statistics recorded after the database
backup of the original server is missing from the restored database of the new or
reconfigured server.
If you need to transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that:
you take the original server out of service as soon as you complete the
database backup, and keep it out of service during the entire upgrade
procedure
you collect all of the needed call statistics from the original server database
before taking the server out of service
If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging is missing from the backup. If it is important that all call statistic
and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the original
server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure that the
original server remains offline until you installed Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
While statistics stored at the different servers within the network are retained,
they are no longer useful, since site IDs can be changed during reinstallation of
the Network Control Center. Therefore, after the installation, statistics can be
attributed to the incorrect server.

Recovery (reinstallation) of Sybase ASE 12.5 and database software 2421
Common recovery procedures used in this guide 2427
Overview
ATTENTION
If your recovery procedure involves restoring the database,
ensure the database backup you use is created from the
same system running the same software release of Contact
Center Manager Server. If you attempt to restore a database
backup created from a system running a different software
release, the database restore finishes, but the system does
not work properly. Make sure you label each database
backup properly, including the software release of Contact
Center Manager Server.
The full system recovery procedure provides instructions for recovering from
system failure, such as:
file corruption that affects more than the Contact Center Manager Server or
Network Control Center database
a hardware failure (for example, a hard drive failure)
If you have a current Platform Recovery Disk and recent database backup, you
can use this recovery method.
When you are satisfied with the proper operation of the restored system, create a
database backup. For instructions, see “Back up data” on page 2343. You can
perform a third-party backup, if available.
If you suspect corruption in your server setup configuration, you can recover an
earlier version if you have an up-to-date copy of your system configuration data
file, MigInfo.txt. This file is created when you create a Platform Recovery Disk
or when you use the Export Configuration Data utility in the Server Setup
Configuration Utility.
5 In the Import Configuration Data from file section, ensure that the path is
the correct location of your file MigInfo.txt. If the path is not correct, use
Browse to navigate to the location of the file.
6 When the path shown is correct, click Import.
Result: The system imports your configuration data.
7 Complete steps 9 through 20 in the procedure “Configuring your server
software and database by importing configuration data from the Platform
Recovery Disk” on page 2436. Then continue to the following procedure.
Result: The SMonW window appears and Contact Center Manager Server
services begin the startup process. For more information about the services and
their statuses, see Section B:“Contact Center Manager Server problems” on
page 3001.
If you suspect that data in your Contact Center Manager Server or Network
Control Center database is corrupt or if you recently migrated your server, you
can restore an existing database backup to the system using the Database
Restore utility.
The restore process causes the connection between the Server Utility and server
to be lost, and the services on the server to be shut down. After the restore
process is finished, restart the system, and reconnect the Server Utility.
Use the Database Restore utility to restore the database.When the database is
restored, the Contact Center Manager Server Database Restore utility
automatically launches the Server Setup Configuration utility. Verify the
configuration information, and then complete the configuration process.
Running the server configuration repopulates the database with Release 6.0 data.
When restoring a more recently backed-up Release 6.0 database, you do not
need to run Server Setup Configuration again.
For more information, see “Recovering a recent backup of the database” on page

If your server continues to receive calls after the backup, some call statistics and
data pegging are missing from the backup. If it is important that all call
statistic and data pegging be migrated to your Release 6.0 server, take the
original server offline immediately following the database backup. Ensure
that the original server remains offline until you install Release 6.0 and
successfully migrate the database back to the same server.
If you need to transfer all of your call statistics to the new server, Nortel
recommends that you complete the following tasks:
1 Stop the HDM service on the live server. The call statistics files are stored
in the file system for use on the migrated Contact Center Manager Server.
2 Create a new database back up of the original server.
3 Restore the new database backup onto the Release 6.0 server.
4 Copy the original server interval files to Contact Center Manager Server.
5 Bring the new Release 6.0 server online. The HDM service on Contact
Center Manager Server adds the interval file data to the Contact Center
Manager Server database. The call statistics are restored.
If you suspect that the Sybase ASE 12.5 server configuration or software is
unstable, you can uninstall the database software and configuration, and then
reinstall it while leaving the system software and configuration intact. You need
a database backup and a Platform Recovery Disk to perform this procedure.

Install Real-Time Statistics Multicast 2477
Modify Real-Time Statistics Multicast settings 2479
Test the Real-Time Statistics Multicast service 2488
Overview
You can begin using the RSM service with the default RSM settings, or you can
modify RSM settings to conform to the requirements of your RSM-dependent
applications.
ATTENTION
RSM compression is supported on Contact Center Manager
Server, but it is not supported with Contact Center Manager
Administration. If RSM compression is configured on
Contact Center Manager Server, Contact Center Manager
Administration Real-Time Displays do not work.
RSM is installed during the Contact Center Manager Server installation. The
installation process checks to ensure you have the correct license file for RSM,
and then installs the required RSM files on the server. When you install RSM,
you must provide the IP multicasting address that you want to use to transmit
RSM data. The default port numbers and multicast rates for real-time statistics
are set automatically.
Installation
During the installation, you are prompted to enter the IP multicast address that
you want RSM to use to send real-time statistical data.
The RSM IP Address window appears whenever RSM is detected during any
one of the following scenarios:
an initial installation of Contact Center Manager Server
ATTENTION
The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending
and receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and
239.255.255.255 range. The default is 230.0.0.1. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast
addresses for your specific network.
For more information about installing the RSM feature in Contact Center
Manager Server, see “Installing the server software” on page 118.
After completing the installation, you can perform the following tasks:
Use the mRcv.exe utility to verify that the RSM service is sending data to
the appropriate ports. See “Starting the mRcv application” on page 2490 for
more information.
Accept the default RSM settings provided by the Contact Center Manager
Server installation, and begin using the RSM service.
Modify the default settings to values recommended by your RSM-
dependent applications. See “Modify the Real-Time Statistics Multicast
service” on page 2480 for more information.
After installing the optional Real-Time Statistics Multicast (RSM) feature, you
can modify the RSM component default settings on each Contact Center
Manager Server to reflect the requirements of your organization. You can
modify the following settings:
the IP multicast address to which each server in Contact Center Manager
Server sends real-time statistics
the ports at which real-time statistics are received
the multicast Time To Live (TTL) value for RSM
the default multicast rate for each port at which real-time statistics are
received
ATTENTION
The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending
and receiving must be within the 224.0.1.0 and
239.255.255.255 range. The default is 230.0.0.1. Check
with your network administrator for acceptable IP multicast
addresses for your specific network.
The TTL value in the ICMP protocol is measured in seconds or hops. For
Contact Center Manager Server, it is measured in hops (for example, the number
of routers).
This section describes how to modify and then enable changes to the RSM
service on a server in Contact Center Manager Server.
The RSM service consists of the configuration and the data propagation
components. RSM settings are configured through the RSM configuration and
multicast control utilities. The RSM statistics are transmitted through the
Statistical Data Propagator (SDP).
When you complete your modifications, you must stop and restart the SDP
service on Contact Center Manager Server. This service must be aware of IP
multicast changes to send the appropriate data.
When you modify multicast rates in the Multicast Configuration utility, you
must open the Multicast Controller utility and click Apply to activate your
changes. See “Modify IP multicast settings on Contact Center Manager Server”
on page 2482 for more information.
The real-time statistics groups that you need to turn on or off vary depending
upon the applications that receive data from the RSM service. Nortel highly
recommends that you review the documentation for each RSM-dependent
application in Contact Center Manager Server before modifying the RSM
settings.
RTD Multicast Configuration Utility (RSMConfg.exe)—Use this utility to
change
the IP multicast address
the multicast rates for the IP ports that send the real-time statistics
1 From the windows Start menu, choose All Programs > Nortel Contact
Center > Manager Server > Multicast Stream Control.
Result: The RTD Multicast Controller window appears.
2 Click the Moving Window or Interval To Date check boxes, or both, for
each real-time statistics group.
The Communication Server 1000/Meridian 1 PBX switch real-time statistics
groups are:
Skillset
Application
Agent
Nodal
IVR
Route
Compression
The Communication Server 2x00/DMS real-time statistics groups are:
Skillset
Application
Agent
Nodal
Compression
3 Click Apply.
Tip: Click Apply to activate changes to multicast rates made in the
configuration utility. See “Activate modifications to the RSM service in
Contact Center Manager Server” on page 2486 for more information.
4 Click Close.
5 To activate new RSM settings on Contact Center Manager Server (except
the multicast rates), stop and start the Statistical Data Propagator (SDP)
service.
ATTENTION
Nortel highly recommends that you review the
documentation for each RSM-dependent application that
use the RSM service in Contact Center Manager Server
before modifying the RSM IP multicast settings.
3 In the IP Port boxes, type the IP port for each statistics group.
ATTENTION If you change the IP port settings, this can cause some
applications that are dependent upon the RSM service to
malfunction.
4 Change the Multicast time to live (TTL) value to a value that is appropriate
for your network.
ATTENTION
If packets are traveling through more than one router to
reach their destination, it is important to change the
Multicast time to live (TTL) value to a value that is
appropriate for your network and the number of routers that
you use. If the TTL value is set too low and the packets go
through many routers, the real-time multicast statistics
cannot reach your application.
ATTENTION
If you change the Multicast Rate for any display in RTD
Multicast Configuration, it cannot produce the refresh rate
changes that you anticipate. Refresh rates depend on the
settings in other applications, as well as those set in the
configuration window. The minimum refresh rate for RSM is
5000 ms (5 seconds). In addition, certain applications
require a specific multicast rate. Before changing a multicast
rate, check the documentation for each application to verify
that all applications that receive RSM data are not affected
by the change.
Note: If you enter 0 in the Multicast Rate box, you disable the statistic.
Tip: If you made an error in modifying the multicast IP group, TTL, IP ports,
or the multicast rates for each port, you can restore the original values by
clicking Registry Value or Default Value. Note that if you modify any of
these values and click OK or Apply, the appropriate registries are updated
with your changes. If you click Registry Value after the modifications are
saved to the registry, it has no effect.
Click Registry Value before you click Apply to retrieve the values stored
in the registries. Use this option if you want to cancel a change without
having to remember and retype the original values.
Click Default Value to restore the values that are set when Contact
Center Manager Server is installed. Use this option if you save changes
to the registry that caused RSM-dependent applications to malfunction,
and you want to begin again with the default RSM configuration.
6 Click OK.
7 To activate new multicast rate settings on Contact Center Manager Server,
you must open the configuration utility and click Apply. See “Activate
modifications to the RSM service in Contact Center Manager Server” for
more information.
D:\Nortel\iccm\bin
3 Double-click MulticastCtrl.exe.
Result: The RTD Multicast Controller window appears.
4 Click Apply.
5 Click Close.
6 To activate new RSM settings on Contact Center Manager Server except
multicast rates), stop and start the Statistical Data Propagator (SDP)
service.
Result: The new multicast rates are retrieved from the appropriate registry,
and RSM begins transmitting at the new rate.
After you install RSM on a Contact Center Manager Server or modified RSM
and restarted SDP_Service, you can use the Multicast Receive utility
(mRcv.exe) to test the RSM service. mRcv.exe displays statistical information
according to the settings specified in a configuration file called mRcv.ini.
<drive>:\Nortel\iccm\bin
ATTENTION
The IP= value must match your IP multicast address.
5 Save the mRcv.ini file. After setting the parameters for your test, you can
start mRcv.exe to begin the test. See “Starting the mRcv application” on
page 2490 for more information.
The list of port numbers in the mRcv.ini file is for reference only, and each line
is “commented out” with the pound (#) symbol. You can use these port numbers
as an easy-to-access list of valid ports that are used in the system to display data.

Result: The following window appears.
4 Click OK.
5 Restart the server.
6 Log on to Contact Center Manager Server as Administrator.
7 From the Start menu, choose All Programs > Nortel Contact Center >
Manager Server > Computer Name Sync.
Result: The utility compares the computer name with the database server
name. If the names do not match, then the following message appears.
8 Click OK.
Result: The utility shuts down the Contact Center Manager Server services
and then synchronizes the computer name with the database server name.
When the process is finished, the following message appears.
9 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
10 Click OK.
11 Restart the server.
Use the Database Expansion utility to expand the size of your Contact Center
Manager Server database by:
expanding it into a new partition
expanding it into additional space on an enlarged partition following an
upgrade or platform migration
You can also use the Database Expansion utility to reserve new partitions for
non-database use.
For more information about creating a Platform Recovery Disk and a database
backup, see Chapter 11, “Back up data.”
In the following example, a new partition for the server database is created and
labeled G. This procedure explains how to use the Database Expansion utility to
expand the database into the new G partition.
3 Click OK.
Result: The Database Expansion utility closes.
Tip: If you want to confirm that your database expanded into your new
partition, restart the Database Expansion utility to check that the new
partition now shows the value IN-USE. In this example, you can see the
following.
4 Restart the Contact Center Manager Server services by choosing Start >
All Programs > Nortel Contact Center > Manager Server > Startup.
5 Create another Platform Recovery Disk. For instructions, see “Create a
Platform Recovery Disk,” on page 2357.
6 Back up the database. For instructions, see Chapter 11, “Back up data.”
For example, you complete a platform migration from your original server to a
new server. Your original server has database partitions F, G, and H. Your new
server also has database partitions F, G, and H. However, the H partition on your
new server is 8 GB and the H partition on the original server is only 4 GB. To
use the additional 4 GB on the new server H partition, you must use the
Database Expansion utility to expand the H partition.
The following procedure explains how to expand the H partition in this example.
2 Click the check box beside Custom select drives for the database
expansion.
3 From the list, select the drive you want to expand (in this case, H).
4 Click Expand Database.
Result: The Usage field for the selected drive changes to EXPAND.
6 Click OK.
Result: The Database Expansion utility closes.
Tip: If you want to confirm that your database expanded to use the larger
partition, restart the Database Expansion utility to check that the new
partition shows the value IN-USE, and that the amount of free space
reduced accordingly. In this example, you can see the following.
7 Restart the Contact Center Manager Server services by choosing Start >
All Programs > Nortel Contact Center > Manager Server > Startup.
8 Create another Platform Recovery Disk. For instructions, see “Create a
Platform Recovery Disk,” on page 2357.
9 Back up the database. For instructions, see Chapter 11, “Back up data.”
EXPAND The drive is currently in use, but you indicate that you want to
expand the database to take advantage of more disk space.
This entry is necessary only when performing an upgrade or a
platform migration, and one or more database partitions on the
new server is larger than the original database partition.
During an upgrade or a platform migration, database
expansion is not automatic. If you want to expand the database
to take advantage of extra space, do it manually using this
utility.
ADD The drive is currently not in use, but you want to use it. When
you add a new partition to the server, the system automatically
assigns it the value ADD.
--- The drive is currently not in use because you reserved it for
something other than database use. This drive is not selected
for database expansion, but you can select it if it:
contains at least 2.1 GB of free space
is formatted as NTFS
Database Restore
You must back up your database to the same location from which you want to
restore it.
For detailed instructions to set up both options, see “Set up remote directory
backups” on page 2372, and “Set up tape backups” on page 2368.
2 Perform one of the following tasks based on which method you are using to
restore your backed up files:
Option 1
If you chose Network Disk, the following window appears.
a. Verify the details of the network location, and then click Next.
Note: If you performed a database integrity check on the Active Server and
you know that your database is working properly, you can choose to skip
the database verification during the restore. The database verification takes
about 30 minutes. If you want to skip the database verification, check the
Do not verify the restored database check box.
Attention: If you change the configuration of the Active Server at any time,
you must rerun the Server Configuration utility on the Standby Server to
ensure the configurations match.
c. Click Start Restore.
Result: The following window appears.
Stage 1
Stage 2
Option 2
If you choose Local Tape Drive, the following window appears.
Stage 1
Stage 2
Migration
4 Click OK.
Result: The system displays messages as it checks the status of each
service running on the server.
5 Wait until the following window appears.
8 Click OK.
9 Click Close to close the Platform Migration Utility window.
10 Check the database check log (C:\DbChk.log) for database errors. To do
this, use a text editor (such as Notepad).
When you check the log file, search for key words such as ERROR or
MSG. Contact your Nortel customer support representative if you detect
any database errors. Do not put the server into service if any detected
database errors exist, even though the server seems to operate normally.
Database backup
You can use the Network DB (database) Backup Path utility to select whether to
back up your database to a remote directory on a network computer, or to a tape.
If you choose to back up to a remote directory, use this utility to enter the
account information and the path of the remote directory in Contact Center
Manager Server. If you choose to back up to a tape, use this utility to select the
tape option.
If you choose the remote directory option, you must set up the remote directory
and user accounts on the server in Contact Center Manager Server and the
remote computer before using this utility. For more information, see “Set up
remote directory backups” on page 2372.
5 In the Path box, type the network path for the shared directory that you
created on the network computer. Use the following format:
computername\sharename
6 Click Next.
Result: The Start Backup window appears.
7 To start your backup, click Start Backup; otherwise, click Cancel to save
your settings and exit.
Result: Contact Center Manager Server is now set to restore the database
from the remote directory on the network computer.
If you want to schedule a backup, see Section B:“Schedule backups” on
page 2387.
If your backup is already scheduled, the system automatically sends the
database backup files to the remote directory.
Registry Maintenance
Use this utility to compare registries between two remote machines, a remote
and a local machine, or two subkeys on the local machine. This utility also has
backup and restore capabilities.
The comparison picks up any difference between the two registry entries, such
as values with the same name but different data, and values or subkeys that exist
in one registry but not on the other. Filtering options are available.
Result: The regexam window appears. From this window, you can perform the
following tasks:
Compare the registry on the server PC with the registry on a different
PC.
Compare the structure of the registry with the structure in an input file.
Any differences between the two are noted, including different data and
missing/extra keys/values. The input file is editable, and you can
customize it to have a set or range of accepted values for certain keys
instead of a fixed value.
Write (dump) the structure of the registry starting from a given subkey.
This option is an easy method for generating an initial input file for the
detection option.
Restore an earlier version of the registry.
Note: You can also use the Computer Name Sync utility to perform the
same verification and synchronization. For more information about this
utility, see “Computer name change,” on page 2542.

Overview 2606
Change the Windows EventLog size 2608
Windows Event Viewer 2610
Configure SNMP on the server 2611
Overview
You can use two tools to view events that occur on your Contact Center
Manager Server:
the Event Browser on the client (supplied with Contact Center Manager
Server)
the Event Viewer on the server (supplied with the Windows operating
system)
This chapter provides guidelines for viewing events with the Windows Event
Viewer on the server, and describes recommended sizes for the event logs. It
also explains how to configure the Windows Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) on the server.
For details about viewing events through the Event Browser on the client, see
the Contact Center Manager Administrator’s Guide.
Events
Events are log entries that record activities on Contact Center Manager Server,
such as
sending or receiving messages
opening or closing applications
errors
Some events are for information purposes only, while others can indicate
problems. Events are categorized by severity.
Event severity
Events are assigned a default severity of Information, Minor, Major, or Critical.
The Alarm Monitor does not report Information-level events.
Information
These events indicate that something noteworthy happened on the system, but
do not mean that there is a problem. For example, an information-level event can
indicate that a service started or stopped. These events appear in the Event
Browser but not in the Alarm Monitor.
Minor
These events indicate that a non-service-affecting fault condition exists and that
you must take corrective action to prevent a more serious fault. For example, a
minor event is generated when the file system is 90 percent full.
Major
These events indicate that a service-affecting condition developed and an urgent
corrective action is required. The event condition can cause severe degradation
in server performance, and you must restore full capacity. For example, a major
event is generated when the file system is 100 percent full.
Critical
These events indicate that a service-affecting condition occurred and an
immediate corrective action is required. Critical events are reported when a
component is completely out of service and you must take immediate action to
restore it. For example, a critical event is generated when the file system crashes.
The Windows EventLog resides on the server and stores a record of all events
that occur on the server. When you install Contact Center Manager Server, the
installation program sets certain default sizes for the various Windows log files.
If you change the size settings, the results affect the entire server.
CAUTION
settings.
Event wraparound
The EventLog size is fixed. It does not increase in size as new events are added
to the log. When the log is full and a new event is generated, the server removes
the oldest event report in the log and replaces that report with the newest one.
Nortel recommends the following size settings for the Application Log:
For a small Contact Center, set the log size to 512 KB.
For a medium-sized Contact Center, set the log size to 6015 KB or greater,
depending on the number of days you want to keep the events.
For a large Contact Center, set the value at 10 048 KB or greater, depending
on the number of days you want to keep events.
For information about how to adjust the size of Windows event logs, see the
documentation supplied with the Windows operating system.
Most information provided by the Windows Event Viewer on the server is also
accessible through the Event Browser on the server. The following type of
information is not available on the client:
database events (from the Application Log)
MAS debug events (from the Application Log)
When to use
Use the Windows Event Viewer on the server to view information that you
cannot view through the Event Browser on the client. For more information
about the Event Viewer, see the documentation supplied with the Windows
operating system.
3 In the Level of Filtering box, select the types of events that you want to
forward to the NMS. All event types that appear and the type that you select
are also forwarded. For example, if you select Major, then all Unknown,
Critical, and Major events are forwarded.
4 Click OK.
The following MIB files describe the format of the traps generated by the server:
nt-ref.mib (MIB-II)
nbflt.mib (NGen MIB)
You can use these files on the NMS system. They are SNMP v1 MIB files.
For more information about configuring your NMS, see your NMS
documentation.

Overview
Contact Center 6.0 includes many server software applications that control the
routing, handling, and reporting of contacts. This chapter describes the
procedures required to change the computer name or IP address on each server
in the Contact Center 6.0 suite.
If you change the name or IP address of one server software application, you
must update the other server applications in your contact center with the new
information.
ATTENTION
If your servers are all on a network, you can use a Domain
Name Service (DNS) server to resolve name and IP address
translations for your servers. If you do not use a DNS in your
network, you must manually update the HOSTS file on every
server in your network. This chapter provides the instructions
for both a DNS and a non-DNS network. Ensure you follow
the instructions appropriate for your network configuration.
Your contact center can include the following set of server software applications,
depending on your licensed features:
Contact Center Manager Server
Contact Center License Manager server
Contact Center Manager Standby Server (and Replication Server)
Contact Center Manager Administration server
Communication Control Toolkit server
Contact Center Multimedia server
Contact Center Multimedia Standby server
You can install one or more server software applications on the same server.
You can change the Contact Center Manager Server name if the new server
name meets the following requirements:
The name cannot be the same as any other computer or domain name in the
network.
The name must contain 6 to 15 characters (A through Z, 0 through 9).
The first character of the name must be alphabetical.
No other characters are allowed. For example, the name cannot include any
underscores (_).
Hyphens (-) are not permitted in the Contact Center Manager Server name.
After you change the Contact Center Manager Server name, you must update the
other servers in the Contact Center suite to ensure the servers work together.
To verify that the new IP address is up to date on the DNS, use the ping <server
name> DOS command with the new server name to confirm that the system
responds with the corresponding IP address.
3 Click OK.
Result: The utility compares the server name with the database server
name. If the names match, continue with step 5. If the names do not match,
the following message appears.
4 Click OK.
Result: The utility shuts down the Contact Center Manager Server services
and then synchronizes the server name with the database server name.
When the process is complete, the following message appears.

in the pop-up message):
ChangeSOAPSrv C:\Program Files\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\Common\SOAP;<server name>
where <server name> is the name of the server, or the fully qualified
domain name, if this is what you use as the Contact Center Manager
Administration default URL (for example, <server name>.<domain
name>.com).

Upgrade problems
ATTENTION
Do not uninstall SU or SUS prior to upgrading to a new
version. If you remove the SU or SUS prior to performing
the upgrade, you receive the error message “Failed to
retrieve network card information”. If you receive this
message, click OK and the installation progresses and
completes successfully.
If the upgrade needs to be canceled for any reason, remove the Sybase database
manually, and then perform the upgrade by following the existing migration
procedure.
Solution
Ensure that you refreshed your Contact Center Manager Servers. Although
Contact Center Manager Administration automatically refreshes all servers
every 12 hours, Nortel recommends that you manually refresh servers in the
following scenarios to ensure that Contact Center Manager Administration
functions correctly.
If any of the following situations occur, refresh the Contact Center Manager
Server that incurred a change:
You upgrade the Symposium Call Center Server or Contact Center
Manager Server.
You install or uninstall a Service Update (SU) on the Contact Center
Manager Server.
A new license file is issued and accepted by Contact Center Manager
Server, or you connect to a different License Manager server (that is, a new
or standby License Manager server).
If you change the password of sysadmin in the Server Utility, you must change
the password in that server.
Note that only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit, delete and
refresh servers in Contact Center Manager Server. When you refresh a server,
you refresh Contact Center Manager Server data associated with that server in
ADAM, such as release number, feature list, and networking information.
4 Click Yes.
5 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes all servers in the system tree. A message
appears in the information bar at the bottom of the screen that lists the
servers that successfully refreshed and the servers that did not refresh. An
entry specifying the servers that were successfully refreshed also appears
in the Audit Trail.
5 Click Yes.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
6 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes the server in the system tree. A message is
displayed in the information bar at the bottom of the screen to indicate that
the server was successfully refreshed.
After you uninstall Contact Center Manager Administration and Service Pack 1
on a Windows 2003 server and reinstall Contact Center Manager
Administration, when you log on to Contact Center Manager Administration,
you receive the error message: “Page cannot be displayed.”
This problem occurs because the asp.dll version number changes when you
uninstall SP1. Therefore, you cannot launch ASP pages.
Solution
Complete the following procedure to reset the asp.dll version number.
1 Uninstall Contact Center Manager Administration from the application
server.
2 Uninstall IIS (Internet Information Services) and ASP.net components on
the application server.
3 Reinstall IIS (Internet Information Services) and ASP.net components on
the application server.
4 Reinstall Contact Center Manager Administration on the application
server.
The following error messages appear when attempting to install Contact Center
Manager Administration:
The server is not operational,
Error 0X80072J3A on GetObject method
Run-time error ‘-2147463168 (80005000)’
ADSI error; an invalid directory pathname was passed.
Problem
Contact Center Manager Administration is supported on Windows Server 2003
Release 2; however, Nortel does not support the following new optional features
provided on CD 2 of the Windows Server 2003 Release 2 installation CDs:
Active Directory Services
Distributed File System
Management and Monitoring Tools
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Beta 2
Other Network File and Print Services
Subsystem for UNIX-based
Windows Share Point Services
Solution
If you install Contact Center Manager Administration on a Windows Server
2003 Release 2 operating system with the optional features installed, you must
reinstall Windows Server 2003 Release 2 without installing the new optional
features. Then proceed with the installation of Contact Center Manager
Administration.
To install Windows Server 2003 Release 2 without the optional features, do not
install or configure CD 2 of the Windows Server 2003 Release 2 installation
CDs. When you receive a prompt to install CD2, click Cancel and then click
OK.
For further details about installing the Windows Server 2003 Release 2
operating system without the optional features, consult the Contact Center
Manager Administration Technical Requirements and Operating System
Configuration Guide.
When you install SU02 or SUS0201, you receive the following error message:
“Error 1920. Service CCMA LMService (CCMALMService) failed to start.
Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.”
Problem
An installation of SU02 or SUS0201 fails because the License Manage service
does not start if the ServerSoapName key in the registry is greater than 24
characters. The ServerSoapName value exceeds 24 characters when your site
references the Contact Center Manager Administration fully qualified domain
name in the SOAP files, and you enter a URL of more than 24 characters in the
SOAP Configuration Parameters window during the Contact Center Manager
Administration installation.
Solution
To resolve this problem, you must temporarily change the ServerSOAPName
value in the registry to be less than 24 characters. After the installation is
complete, you can revert to the original ServerSOAPName containing more than
24 characters.
If the preceding solution does not correct the problem, complete the following
procedure to register the wclientaudittrail.dll.
After you input the password information for the iceAdmin account during
Contact Center Manager Administration installation, you receive the following
Windows Script Host error message: “There is no file extension in
"C:\PROGA~1\Nortel".”
The Contact Center Manager Administration installation does not install the
ADAM application even though the installer acknowledges the error and
attempts to continue with the Contact Center Manager Administration
installation.
This problem occurs when the capability to generate 8.3 style short filenames
has been disabled in your Windows operating system either as part of its
operating system image or through your security policy.
Solution
You must change the value of the following registry key from 1 to 0 to enable
the generation of 8.3 style short filenames:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Filesystem\ntf
sdisable8dot3namecreation
After you restore your backup file of Contact Center Manager Administration
data, your Access and Partition Management data is missing. This occurs when
you use the Windows Backup Utility to create your backup file and two of the
ADAM files do not successfully back up.
Solution
You must ensure that the following ADAM files are included for all users in the
Windows Backup Utility, and then backup and restore your Contact Center
Manager Administration data again:
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/adamntds.dit
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/ebd*.log
6 If the two ADAM files in step 5 do not appear in the expanded list, select
Tools > Options in the Windows Backup Utility.
Result: The Options window appears.
7 Select the Exclude Files tab.
Result: The Exclude Files window appears.
8 Under Files excluded for all users:, select the following ADAM files and
click Remove:
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/adamntds.dit
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/ebd*.log
9 Click OK.
10 Close all windows to exit the Windows Backup Utility.
11 Create a new backup file of your Contact Center Manager Administration
data files, and restore the backup file again. For details, see Chapter 12,
“Restore data”.
Note: When creating the new backup file of the Contact Center Manager
Administration data files, ensure that the following ADAM files are selected
when you perform the backup:
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/adamntds.dit
<x>://Program Files/Microsoft ADAM/InstanceName/data/ebd*.log
If you install an update with one account and then try to install the next update or
uninstall the current patch while logged on as a different account, the installation
or uninstallation fails, and you receive the following Windows Installer error
toward the end of the procedure: “This action is only valid for products that are
currently installed.”
Solution
Verify the user account that installed the software, SU, SUS, or DP. Use Add/
Remove Programs to verify the user account that installed the software, Service
Updates, Service Update Supplements, or Designer Patches. If you tried to
install the next update or uninstall the current patch while logged on as a
different user account, complete the following procedures:
When you install Crystal Reports 10.0 Hotfix, you receive the following error:
“Failed to create Backup folder -110.”
Solution
Click OK when the error message appears. The installation proceeds and there is
no impact to the Crystal Reports 10.0 Hotfix or the Contact Center Manager
Administration software.
Solution
1 Click OK.
Result: The upgrade completes with no impact to the software.
2 Contact Nortel Technical Support for information about applying the
required patch to resolve the issue.
Solution
This problem occurs only when you reinstall Contact Center Manager
Administration on a server that is running Windows Server 2003, and you try
install the software in a directory different than that in which it was originally
installed. You must install the software in the same directory in which it was
originally installed, or this error occurs.
In this case, you must first completely uninstall, and then reinstall the Contact
Center Manager Administration software, choosing the same directory in which
it was originally installed.
When you log on to the Server Utility, a nbclt_translator.mdb error occurs. This
occurs on co-resident systems if Server Utility was installed before the Contact
Center Manager Administration software.
Solution
1 Click Start > Administrative Tools > Data Sources (ODBC).
Result: The ODBC Data Source Administrator window appears.
2 Click on the System DSN tab.
3 Under System Data Sources, click Translator_EN and click Configure.
4 Under Database, select c:\program files\Nortel\Contact Center\Server
Utility\client\en\data\nbclt_translator.mdb.
5 Click OK.
6 Click OK.
7 Relaunch Server Utility.
These types of errors indicate that the IIS worker process crashed. These errors
may be in the past. The server stores the errors and the IIS worker reports them
when a user logs on after a reboot.
Solution
1 Click Don’t Send. There is no impact to the Contact Center Manager
Administration installation or application.
2 If not previously reported, report the IIS Lockups specified in the error
dialog box to Nortel Technical Support.
After you input the password information for the iceAdmin account during
Symposium Web Client installation, you receive the following Windows Script
Host error message: “There is no file extension in C:\PROGA~1\Nortel.” The
Symposium Web Client installation does not install the ADAM application even
though the installer acknowledges the error and attempts to continue with the
installation.
This problem occurs when the capability to generate 8.3 style short filenames is
disabled in your Windows operating system either as part of its operating system
image or through your security policy.
Symposium Web Client installation fails if the Windows Server 2003 has 8.3
type filename disabled. Specifically the Microsoft ADAM (Active Directory
Application Mode) component fails to install.
Solution
Enable the generation of 8.3 style short filenames.
1 Click Start > Run.
2 In the text box, type regedit.
3 Click OK.
Result: The Registry Editor appears.
4 In the Registry Editor, browse to the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Filesyst
em\ntfsdisable8dot3namecreation.
5 Change the value of the registry key from 1 to 0 by double clicking on the
registry ntfsdisable8dot3namecreation value, and changing the value in
the Value Data field of the Edit dialog Windows from 1 to 0.
6 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
After you upgrade a co-resident server and then uninstall Contact Center
Manager Administration, you receive the following error:
Crystal Report Application Server failed to start
Scenario
1. Install the following applications on a a co-resident server:
Symposium Call Center Server 5.0
Symposium Web Client 4.5 with SU07
2. Upgrade the co-resident server to:
Contact Center Manager Server 6.0 with SU05
License Manager with SU04
Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0 with SU05
Contact Center Manager Server Utility with SU04
3. Uninstall all PEPs
4. Uninstall Contact Center Manager Server Utility
5. Uninstall Contact Center Manager Administration
You receive an error message indicating that the Crystal Report application
server failed to start and the system crashes.
Solution
To avoid the above error, you must manually register the keycode.dll
(C:\Program Files\Common Files\Crystal Decisions\2.5\bin\keycode.dll) after
you install Server Utility and again after you uninstall Server Utility.

Overview 3002
Contact Center Manager Server services 3003
TFE does not start after an upgrade 3005
TSM does not start on a Network Control Center server 3006
Other services do not start 3007
System log warns that database disks are at or near capacity 3008
Overview
For CS2x00 (DMS) systems, the NDLOAM, NCCOAM, and ES services appear
as UNKNOWN.
Service Monitor
You can use Service Monitor to monitor more than one Contact Center server.
You can use Service Monitor to monitor and troubleshoot the status of services
on another node without having to log on to that node. For more information, see
the Nortel Contact Center Manager Administrator’s Guide.
All of the Contact Center Manager Server functions are Windows services. Each
service, as described in the following table, is started automatically by the
Services manager when the server starts up. If networking is enabled, then the
NDLOAM appears in the UP state. NCCOAM appears in the UP state only if
your server is configured as an Network Control Center.
If the services are shut down, you must restart Smonw to refresh the status of the
services.
If the Task Flow Executor (TFE) does not appear in the UP state after an
upgrade, then you must validate all scripts to correct the problem. For more
information about validating scripts, see the Contact Center Manager Scripting
Guide for Communication Server 1000/Meridian 1 PBX for your switch type.
This is normal. The Network Control Center, if present, performs only network
administrative functions and does not perform any call processing. The
Telephony Services Manager (TSM), therefore, is not required. The only
services that must be running are:
OAM
AUDIT
NCCOAM
HDM
This problem can occur if you have more than one System Monitor window
open.
The server System Log in the Windows Event Viewer can display warning
messages with the following text:
The <disk letter> disk is at or near capacity. You need to delete some files.
If this message appears for any of the database drives (F drive through Y drive),
you can ignore the message.
These warning messages are generated by the Windows Server 2003 operating
system whenever the percentage of free disk space in a drive drops to or below
10 percent. However, due to the way the Contact Center Manager Server
database drives are installed, 90 percent of each database drive is automatically
reserved for the database, leaving the percentage of free disk space at 10 percent,
even before the database begins filling up. This means that the warning message
can appear on a newly installed server that does not yet contain any data in the
databases.
The database files created when you install Contact Center Manager Server are
of fixed size (90 percent of the database drive size) and, therefore, do not grow
in size.
If you stored additional files on the database drives (such as log files or trace
files), this can push the used space on the database drives beyond 90 percent and
possibly result in additional warning messages. You must avoid storing these
files on the database drives.
If you test the Nortel server subnet and ELAN subnet connection using the ping
command and the test fails, follow these steps to verify that the server ELAN
subnet and Nortel server subnet cards are configured and identified correctly.
Requirements
The following items are required to troubleshoot the network connection.
A laptop or PC that is near the server and can be connected directly to the
server. In this procedure, the laptop or PC is referred to as the Client PC.
A direct connect (crossover) network cable that allows two PCs to be
directly connected without a hub in between them.
7 From the server, repeat the steps described in the following procedure,
“Testing the ELAN subnet and Nortel server subnet network connection.” If
the test fails, then verify that the network is set up correctly.
Tip: In addition to the previous steps, you can also check your TCP/IP
stack as follows:
Ping the loopback IP address (ping 127.0.0.1).
If you are using two different network card drivers for the Nortel server
subnet and ELAN subnet, then ping the Nortel server subnet IP
address, and the ELAN subnet IP address of the Release 6.0 server.
You should receive a response, even if your platform is not physically
connected to the network. If you do not get a response, there can be a
driver problem or Operating System corruption.
Test your network driver in the Windows Server 2003 Device Manager.
For detailed instructions, consult your network card manufacturer and
the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.

Using log files 3012
When the Replication Server shuts down 3013
Issuing maintenance commands to the Replication Server 3014
Failed connection to the Standby Server 3015
Failed DSI connection 3016
The system creates installation and configuration logs, and the Replication
Server maintains an ongoing log of its activities.
The SysOps Event log (D:\sysops.log) tracks events associated with any
installation, reinstallation, upgrade, or uninstall operation. It also tracks any fatal
errors that interrupt these operations. Use any text editor (for example, Notepad)
to view the SysOps log.
The Replication Server Configuration utility writes progress and error messages
to D:\Nortel\SCCS\WS\Logs\wsinstall.log. During the configuration process,
Sybase also creates the following log files:
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\init\logs\rs_install.log
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\init\logs\rs_encrypt.log
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\init\logs\add_blue_active.log
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\init\logs\add_cbc_active.log
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\init\logs\add_blue_standby.log
D:\SybaseRS\REP-12_6\inti\logs\add_cbc_standby.log
The Replication Server Management utility writes progress and error messages
to D:\Nortel\SCCS\WS\Logs\wsswitch.log.
The Stable Queues Expansion utility writes progress and error messages to
D:\Nortel\SCCS\WS\Logs\wsexpand.log.
The Replication Server does not send errors to the Windows Event Log, only to
its log file.
To issue maintenance commands to the Replication Server, log on using the isql
command from a command window on the server:
CAUTION
Risk of failure
The preceding logon command allows access to low-level
.
The Replication Server can lose connectivity to the Standby Contact Center
Manager Server. This happens when the network connection to the Standby
Server fails or when the Sybase server fails on the Standby Server. The result is
that the Replication Server cannot execute transactions in the Standby Server
database.
The Replication Server attempts to connect using its Data Server Interface
connections to the Standby Server every few minutes.
The Replication Server Monitor displays the status of the DSI and ESI EXEC
threads as “Connecting” during this time. The failure is also recorded in the
Replication Server log file.
The Active Server continues sending transactions to the Replication Server and
stores them in the Stable Queues. If the connection is not restored, the Stable
Queues can fill up.
After you restore the connection to the Standby Server, the Replication Server
resumes executing transactions in the Standby Server database.
The Replication Server uses the Data Server Interface (DSI) to connect to the
Standby Contact Center Manager Server database. The Replication Server uses
this connection to execute transactions in the Standby Contact Center Manager
Server database.
2 Check the Replication Server log file in the following location for more
detail: D:\Sybase\REP-12_6\install\<computer name>_RS.log.
Result: The log file displays the error that caused the connection to be
suspended, similar to the following example. The description can include a
description of the transaction that provoked the error.
The following table describes the resume connection commands and options in
more detail.
Command Description
Server Name of server holding the database that you want to resume
connection.
skip transaction If the Standby Server database does not require the failed
transaction, use the skip transaction option. The failed
transaction is not executed, and the Replication Server
processes the next available transaction.
For example, if your server is called SBYSERVER and your
database is BLUE, the command you enter is:
1> resume connection to SBYSERVER.blue skip transaction
2> go
execute transaction If the failed transaction is required, use the execute transaction
option. The Replication Server attempts to execute the
transaction again.
For example, if your server is called SBYSERVER and your
database is BLUE, the command you enter is:
1> resume connection to SBYSERVER.blue execute transaction
2> go

Overview
The Grace Period duration is equal to 10 days and the Grace Period is
accumulative over the lifetime of the product. On the first occurrence of a
communication problem between the Contact Center Manager Server and the
License Manager, there are 10 days available for the Contact Center Manager
Server to continue normal operation. If the problem is resolved in 2 days, then
on the next occurrence of a communication problem, then there are 8 days
available to fix the problem.
If, at any stage, the Grace Period expires, Contact Center Manager Server shuts
down and Contact Center Manager Server is locked. You cannot restart Contact
Center Manager Server without resetting the Grace Period.
The Grace Period can be reset back to 10 days at any time. When a
communication error is detected, an event is fired to the Server Utility detailing
that there is an error, the time already elapsed in the Grace Period, and a lock
code that you must return to Nortel to get the Grace Period reset.
2 Nortel Support provides you with another code that you must apply to the
Contact Center Manager Server. Launch the Nortel Contact Center License
Grace Period Reset application to apply the new unlock code.
5 Click Exit.
6 Restart the Contact Center Manager Server application.
For Contact Center Manager Server, you must apply separate unlocking
codes for CCMS Control Service and ASM Service both. Repeat the
preceding procedure for both services.
Within the grace period, you have the same capabilities as if you are the only
client of the License Manager. You can request the maximum licenses that are
available from the License Manager. When communication is re-established, the
licenses are acquired automatically from the License Manager (if they are
available).
When a licensing error is detected, you must check that the License Manager
service is running, and verify the status of the License Manager server and
network communications. During the grace period, alarms are sent every 6 hours
notifying the time elapsed in the grace period.
During the grace period, you can shut down, start up, or restart Contact Center
Manager Server without affecting the operation of Contact Center Manager
Server.
The emergency license file expires after 30 days and is used only to ensure
operation of the Contact Center Manager Server on a temporary basis.
You can restart Contact Center Manager Server at any point during the grace
period.
You must install the emergency license file through the License Manager
Configuration tool. If you are using corporate licensing, you need to change the
Contact Center Manager Server Configuration in cases where the License
Manager is installed on a different server than it was previously.
If you upgrade your Contact Center Manager Server, you must update your
license file.
2 Click Browse.
Result: The Open dialog box appears.
3 Navigate the file system and locate the new license file.
4 Click Open.
Result: The path for the license file can populate the box.
5 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
The License Manager uses Port 3998 as the default port number. You can
change the default port number. For example, if the default port number is used
by another application or if a specific port number is used because of firewall
restrictions.
6 Click Yes.
7 Click OK.
Result: The following window appears.
If a new license file is issued and accepted by Contact Center Manager Server,
or you connect to a different License Manager Server (that is, a new or standby
License Manager server), you must refresh your servers.
If you changed the password of sysadmin in the Server Utility, you must change
the password in that server.
ATTENTION
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit,
delete and refresh servers in Contact Center Manager
Server. When you refresh a server, you refresh Contact
Center Manager Server data associated with that server in
ADAM, such as release number, feature list, and
networking information.
8 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes all servers in the system tree. A message
appears in the information bar at the bottom of the screen which lists the
refreshed servers and the servers that did not refresh. An entry specifying
the servers that are refreshed also appears in the Audit Trail.
When you startup the License Manager, it sends a message to the Secondary
License Manager to check to see if the License Manager is operational. If it does
not receive a response, the Secondary License Manager starts up in Active mode
so that it can issue licenses.
If the Secondary License Manager receives a response from the Primary License
Manager indicating that the Primary License Manager started, the Secondary
License Manager starts in Standby mode. While in Standby mode, it
continuously pings the Active server and remains in Standby until the Active
does not respond.
You can use the plicmon utility to check if the server is in Active or Standby
mode.
If you cannot ping the server names of the Active and Standby servers from each
server, you must ensure that there is a DNS server entry made for these servers
or edit the hosts file to add the server and the IP address to use.
You can use the plicmon utility to monitor the License Manager. You can run
this utility from the server or remotely. The utility is located on the
D:\nortel\lm\bin directory on each Contact Center Manager Server.

Cannot communicate with Contact Center Manager Server 3047
Changing the Contact Center Manager Server computer name 3048
Cannot connect to the CCMA server after migrating to a new application server
or changing the application server computer name 3049
You made a change to the Contact Center Manager Server (for example,
performed an upgrade, installed or uninstalled an SU, changed to a standby
Contact Center Manager server, or a new license file has been issued), and the
Contact Center Manager Administration no longer functions correctly. For
example, pages and tabs do not load correctly, new components and features are
unavailable, scripting errors occur, and so on.
Solution
Ensure that you refreshed your Contact Center Manager Servers. Although
Contact Center Manager Administration automatically refreshes all servers
every 12 hours, Nortel recommends that you manually refresh servers in the
following scenarios to ensure that Contact Center Manager Administration
functions correctly.
If any of the following situations occur, refresh only the Contact Center
Manager Server that incurred a change:
You upgrade the Symposium Call Center Server or Contact Center
Manager Server.
You install or uninstall a Service Update (SU) on the Contact Center
Manager Server.
A new license file is issued and accepted by Contact Center Manager
Server, or you connect to a different License Manager server (that is, a new
or standby License Manager server).
If you change the password of sysadmin in the Server Utility, you must change
the password in that server.
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit, delete and refresh
servers in Contact Center Manager Server. When you refresh a server, you
refresh Contact Center Manager Server data associated with that server in
ADAM, such as release number, feature list, and networking information.
4 Click Yes.
5 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes all servers in the system tree. A message
appears in the information bar at the bottom of the screen that lists the
servers that successfully refreshed and the servers that did not refresh. An
entry specifying the servers that were successfully refreshed also appears
in the Audit Trail.
5 Click Yes.
Note: You can also right-click the server that you want to refresh. Then
select Refresh Server from the menu. The system asks if you are sure you
want to refresh the selected server.
Result: The following dialog box appears.
6 Click Yes.
Result: The system refreshes the server in the system tree. A message is
displayed in the information bar at the bottom of the screen to indicate that
the server has been successfully refreshed.
A number of issues can cause communication issues with the Contact Center
Manager Server.
Verify that the Contact Center Manager Server IP address that you are using is
valid.
Solution
After you have performed your testing, take appropriate action as required.
If you change the computer name of the Contact Center Manager Server or if
you switch to a standby Contact Center Manager Server with a new name, you
must change the name of the Contact Center Manager Server on the Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
Solution
With a new feature in Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0, you can
easily reconfigure the Contact Center Manager Administration server to connect
to a secondary Contact Center Manager Server (different computer name/IP
address). This lets Contact Center Manager Administration continue to
communicate with a new standby Contact Center Manager Server; that is,
retrieve all the data stored in the application server for that server even though it
now has a different name.
When a Contact Center Manager Server is changed to a different computer name
and/or IP address, the following procedure must be performed on the Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
If you change the computer name of the Contact Center Manager Administration
server, you must perform postchange tasks to successfully connect to a Contact
Center Manager Administration server with a new name.
Solution
See “Change the co-resident server name” on page 2872.

Solution
Extract SSPNG2.dll from c:\Program Files\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\Common\Controls\ccTree.cab into
c:\windows\system32.
A number of issues can cause communication problems between client PCs and
the Contact Center Manager Administration server. You must identify the
source of your problem before determining the solution.
Solution
Verify that the Contact Center Manager Administration user name and password
are valid.
If you confirmed that the user name and password are valid, you must check the
following issues to identify your specific problem:
Test the communication from the client to the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
Verify that Web users have permissions on all directories in the Contact
Center Manager Administration Web site. When Contact Center Manager
Administration is installed, it uses the default settings stored in IIS. If Web
users do not have permissions, contact your site administrator for details
about changing the settings in IIS.
If you configured a Domain Name Server (DNS), verify that the computer
name of the Contact Center Manager Administration server is registered on
the DNS. If the computer name is not registered on your DNS, Contact
Center Manager Administration does not function properly.
If you did not configure a DNS server, verify that you added the computer
name of the Contact Center Manager Administration server to the HOSTS
table on each client PC that accesses Contact Center Manager
Administration.
Check if Internet Explorer uses a proxy server.
Ensure that the IIS service is running on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
Ensure that Active Directory Application Mode is installed on the Contact
Center Manager Administration server.
Confirm that the event viewer logs are configured correctly on the Contact
Center Manager Administration server. For more information, see
“Configuring the event viewer logs on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server” on page 3057.
Add the computer name of the CCMA server to the HOSTS table on
each client PC (if you did not configure a DNS)
Nortel recommends that the Contact Center Manager Administration server host
name be resolved by the corporate DNS. However, if you did not configure a
name resolution server during the operating system installation, then the client
PCs that connect to Contact Center Manager Server cannot find the Contact
Center Manager Administration server. In this case, your next step is to
manually update the HOSTS table on each client PC with the name and Nortel
Server subnet network interface IP address of the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
Based on the operating system installed on the client PC, sample host tables are
located in varying directories. With the Windows 2003 installation, for example,
sample HOSTS tables are provided in the following directory:
[x]:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
On each client PC, use a text editor to modify the HOSTS tables by entering the
computer name and IP address of the Contact Center Manager Administration
server.
ATTENTION
You do not have to use HOSTS tables for name resolution
if the name of the Contact Center Manager Administration
server is registered on a DNS server.
The following sample HOSTS tables are provided as a guideline, but are not
intended to indicate exactly how the HOSTS tables are configured on the client
PC.
ATTENTION
Incorrectly modifying a HOSTS table on the client PC can
cause extensive network problems. Before you modify any
of the HOSTS tables on the client PC, you must carefully
review the detailed information about HOSTS in the
supporting Microsoft documentation.
At the end of the file, type the IP address and computer name of the Contact
Center Manager Administration server. Separate the two values by using the
space or tab key.
After you edit and save the HOSTS file, the system automatically reads your
new settings. If you edit the sample HOSTS file, save the file with no extension
to enable the system to recognize your changes.
To avoid this problem, after you install Windows Server 2003, configure each of
the event viewer logs on the Contact Center Manager Administration server to
overwrite events as needed.
1 On the Contact Center Manager Administration server, click Start > All
Programs > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer.
Result: The Event Viewer window appears, listing the log files on the Tree
tab.
2 On the Tree tab, right-click the first log file, Application Log, and from the
menu, click Properties.
Result: The corresponding Properties window appears.
3 In the Log size area of the window, ensure the Overwrite events as
needed option is selected.
4 Click OK to save your changes and close the Properties window.
5 Perform this procedure for each of the log files in the tree.
Solution
If you receive error messages from Internet Explorer indicating that your Web
site cannot run Out of Process components, you must enable Out of Process
components.
Your client PC has Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed. When you open
a browser and log on to Contact Center Manager Administration, you receive
messages regarding the running of .msi files (for example, the ClientSoap.msi
file). The following message appears: “The publisher could not be verified. Are
you sure you want to run this software?”
Additionally, an error message appears, notifying you that connections are being
blocked by firewall errors. Your options are Keep blocking, Unblock, or Ask
later.
Solution
These messages appear only when the client PC is running Windows XP with
Service Pack 2. With this operating system and service pack, Microsoft has
changed the installer version, preventing certain .msi files from being
automatically downloaded and installed.
The first part of the solution involves the installation of the client portion of
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). Because Contact Center Manager
Administration requires that you download and install the ClientSoap.msi file,
you must manually accept the download and installation of this file.
1 When the message “The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you
want to run this software?” appears, click Yes.
Result: The system installs the client portion of SOAP.
The second part of the solution involves opening the ports required for
downloading the ActiveX controls needed by Real-Time Reporting and
Emergency Help. When these ports are open, the firewall errors Keep
blocking, Unblock, or Ask later do not appear and you can automatically
download these controls when you launch these components.
2 Consult the Microsoft documentation for instructions for opening ports.
Then open the following ports individually:
Emergency Help, UDP
8200
After you uninstall Contact Center Manager Administration and Service Pack 1
on a Windows 2003 server and reinstall Contact Center Manager
Administration, when you log on to Contact Center Manager Administration,
you receive the error message: “Page cannot be displayed.”
This problem occurs because the asp.dll version number changes when you
uninstall Service Pack 1. Therefore, you cannot launch ASP pages.
Solution
Complete the following procedure to reset the asp.dll version number.
1 Uninstall Contact Center Manager Administration from the application
server.
2 Uninstall IIS (Internet Information Services) and ASP.net components on
the application server.
3 Reinstall IIS (Internet Information Services) and ASP.net components on
the application server.
4 Reinstall Contact Center Manager Administration on the application
server.
This can occur if your display settings are not optimized for the Contact Center
Manager Administration Web interface.
Solution
Check the display settings on your computer and, if applicable, resize the font.
When you attempt to launch Contact Center Manager Administration the logon
screen displays ERROR: UNKNOWN!
Solution
Ensure that display settings for Internet Explorer are configured for Western
European (ISO).
Solution
Because the procedures to disable pop-up blockers vary depending on the type
of pop-up blocker, the procedure to disable your pop-up blocker may differ from
the procedures listed here. For more information about how to disable pop-up
blockers that are not listed here, contact the pop-up blocker provider.
Problem
The IUSR_SWC password configured in IIS does not match the password
specified for that user account in Computer Management.
Solution
Reset the IUSR_SWC password in IIS to match the IUSR_SWC password in
Computer Management. If you cannot remember the original IUSR_SWC
password, reset the password in Computer Management and IIS by following
the steps in Step 25. “Add the IUSR_SWC account as the anonymous user
account” on page 293.
When you try to log on to Contact Center Manager Administration, you receive
the following JET Database Engine error:
“Microsoft JET Database Engine error ‘80004005’
Unspecified error
/SWCCommon/includes/internationalization.inc, line 21”
Solution
1. Add the IUSR_SWC User to the Administrator group on the server.
2. Open to command prompt, and type %temp% to navigate to the Local
Settings Temp Directory.
3. Add the Administrator group and the Authenticated Users group to the
security settings for the Temp Directory with Read/Write permissions.
4. Reset IIS.
Agent Desktop Display fails to upgrade from Symposium Web Client 4.5 to
Contact Center Manager Administration 6.0 on client PCs.
This can occur if you have proxy settings turned on when you attempt to
upgrade Agent Desktop Display.
Solution
Ensure that proxy settings are turned off before you upgrade Agent Desktop
Display.
If your network security policy requires it, you must turn proxy settings back on
after you complete the Agent Desktop Display upgrade.
When you launch Agent Desktop Displays, the data returned is either negative
values or long data strings.
Solution
On the Contact Center Manager Server, ensure that the RSM Compression
check box is clear in the RTD Multicast Controller window. If you select the
RSM Compression check box when you configure Contact Center Manager
Server, Real-Time displays and Agent Desktop Displays do not function in
Contact Center Manager Administration.
Problem
The Internet Explorer security setting Automatic prompting for ActiveX
controls is set to Disable.
Solution
Complete the following procedure to set the security setting Automatic
prompting for ActiveX controls to enable. Alternatively, you can set the security
setting Download signed ActiveX controls to enable. For more information, see
“Configuring Internet Explorer 6.0 or later on the client PC” on page 578.
1 Open Internet Explorer
2 From the menu, select Tools > Internet Options.
3 Select the Security tab.

Simple Object Access Protocol errors 3076
You forgot the iceAdmin password 3083
CCMA is not functioning correctly 3089
CCMA LMService license grant/release events are not logged 3092
When you investigate Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) errors, you must
check the settings and configuration on both the Contact Center Manager
Administration server and the client PCs. This section is separated into the
actions that you perform on each type of computer.
This message and the procedure that follows are applicable only to Symposium
Web Client 4.5 SU05 or later; the message does not appear if you have a
previous release of the software installed.
This message appears when you launch a component that requires SOAP (for
example, the Configuration component), but SOAP has not been configured
correctly. When you launch the utility, it reconfigures the server name settings
in the .WSDL files, enabling SOAP to function properly.
This message usually appears because the incorrect server name was entered in
the SOAP Configuration Parameters window during the Contact Center
Manager Administration installation. If the Contact Center Manager
Administration default URL is the Contact Center Manager Administration
server fully qualified host name (for example, <computername>.<domain
name>.com), then you must type this name during the installation. Likewise, if
the client PCs that are used to access the Contact Center Manager
Administration server are located outside the server domain, then you must type
the fully qualified domain name in the SOAP Configuration Parameters
window. However, if the server computer name was entered in this window
instead, then SOAP malfunctions, and the ChangeSOAPSrv message appears.
3 At the prompt, type the following text (which includes the path that appears
in the message): ChangeSOAPSrv C:\Program Files\Nortel
Networks\WClient\Apps\Common\SOAP;<computer name> where
<computer name> is the name of the server, or the fully qualified domain
name, if this is what you use as the Contact Center Manager Administration
default URL (for example, <computername>.<domain name>.com).
4 Press Enter.
Result: A window appears, showing the updated SOAP files.
5 Try launching and working with the same Contact Center Manager
Administration component again (for example, Configuration).
If you forget or misplace the iceAdmin password, you can use the procedure in
this section to reset it.
You can also use the first part of this procedure (steps 1 to 7) if you forget or
misplace the password when you upgrade from Contact Center Manager
Administration to a later release. During the upgrade process, the system asks
you to type the old iceAdmin password. At this point in the installation—and
without halting the installation process—you can perform steps 1 to 7 in the
following procedure, and then return directly to the upgrade installation, typing
the iceAdmin password that you supply in step 6 in the following procedure as
the old iceAdmin password in the upgrade installation.
Manually resetting the password involves the following two main steps:
1. Reset the password in Windows.
2. Reset the password by using the iceAdmin Password Change utility that is
provided with Contact Center Manager Administration.
1 On the Contact Center Manager Administration server, click Click Start >
Administrative Tools > Computer Management.
Result: The Computer Management window appears.
2 In the left pane, click the plus sign (+) beside Local Users and Groups.
Result: The folder expands.
4 In the Old Password box, type the same password that you used in step 6.
5 In the New Password box, type a new password for the iceAdmin user
account.
6 In the Confirm Password box, type the new password again.
If your Contact Center Manager Administration server is a member of an
active domain, the Domain Account option is enabled on the iceAdmin
Password Change window.
7 If you do not want to export scheduled reports to a domain account, or if the
domain account button is disabled, proceed to step 8.
OR
To export scheduled reports to a domain account, click Domain Account.
Result: The Optional Domain Account Setup dialog box appears.
8 In the Select Domain Name field, select the name of the domain that you
want to add from the drop-down menu.
9 In the Enter Domain Account field, enter the domain account.
Note: Obtain the domain account name and password from your network
administrator.
10 In the Enter Domain Account Password field, enter the domain account
password.
Note: You must enter the correct domain account password. If the
password is incorrect, the system does not proceed.
11 In the Confirm Domain Account Password field, reenter the domain
account password.
12 Click OK.
Result: The iceAdmin Password Change window reappears and activates
all scheduled reports using the domain account instead of the local
iceAdmin account.
13 Click OK.
Result: The system ensures that you typed the same password both times,
and then registers the new password in all required components.
Solution
Check for the following possible sources of the problem:
1. Ensure that you removed or disabled all Blocking Popups software.
2. Ensure that you refreshed your servers.
If you change the password of sysadmin in the Server Utility, you must change
the password in that server.
Only the default administrator, webadmin, can add, edit, delete and refresh
servers in Contact Center Manager Server. When you refresh a server, you
refresh Contact Center Manager Server data associated with that server in
ADAM, such as release number, feature list, and networking information.
1 Log on to Contact Center Manager Administration.
2 Select Configuration.
3 On the menu bar, click Server > Refresh All Servers.
Result: The system asks if you want to continue to refresh all servers.
4 Click Yes.

The ICERtdTrace tool test shows that the server is not sending multicast 3102
Troubleshoot Real-Time Statistics Multicast from the CCMS 3103
No data is multicasted out 3106
Overview
Various issues can affect your Real-Time Statistics Multicast (RSM). The
source of your problem can originate in the following network components:
the client PC
the Contact Center Manager Administration server
the Contact Center Manager Server
This section provides information about how to investigate the source of your
issue by analyzing symptoms and using tools provided by Nortel in each of the
network components.
The IP multicast addresses that you select for RSM sending and receiving must
be within the 224.0.1.0 and 239.255.255.255 range. Check with your network
administrator for acceptable IP multicast addresses for your specific network.
The following figure shows a display in which both icons are shown, indicating
that the Contact Center Manager Administration server supports both multicast
and unicast. In cases where only one transmission method is enabled, the
corresponding icon appears on the display alone.
After the display is launched, the icon indicates that the transmission mode that
is actually being used to launch the display. The following figure shows a
display that is receiving data through a unicast connection, a dedicated
connection between the Contact Center Manager Administration server and
client PC:
If this display were receiving multicast data, there would be a multicast icon at
the top and there would be no direct connection to the Contact Center Manager
Administration server. Instead, the client would be “listening” to a shared
multicast data stream.
This section describes how to interpret RSM error messages on the client PC.
In this case, close the display and try to launch it again later. If the problem
persists, you may need to increase the number of unicast connections that the
Contact Center Manager Administration server allows (subject to prior
engineering analysis).
No relevant data
This window appears on a client computer when it is receiving data, but the data
is not relevant for the current display (for example, when the information is not
available within the user’s partitions or the current filter blocks the data from the
display). The presence of the unicast icon indicates that a unicast connection was
successfully established and the client PC is receiving data packets.
This window appears on a client PC when it is not receiving any data. There is
no icon at the top of the window, indicating that the display is not receiving any
data. The Transmit Mode = Multicast note implies that the server only supports
multicast, but, in this case, the client PC is not receiving multicast data. This
may be the result of a network problem, or it may mean that the server can
support unicast, but it has not been enabled.
Report the problem to your administrator so that the administrator can check the
Contact Center Manager Administration server settings and enable unicast, if
necessary. The administrator may also check the network settings to determine
why the client PCs cannot receive multicast data.
Occasionally, the statistics in a Real-Time Display may stop updating and the
characters * and 0 appear instead of the variable fields. In a unicast environment,
this indicates that the server has stopped sending data to this client.
You must close and reopen the display. In a multicast environment, this
indicates that the server may have stopped sending the multicast stream. Run a
trace on the Contact Center Manager Administration server if the problem
persists.
where [x] is the drive letter for the hard drive on which the operating system
is installed.
2 Enter the following command to trace data sent from Contact Center
Manager Server to the Contact Center Manager Administration server:
icertdtrace -r IPreceive <IP Multicast receive address> -s <CCMS
server name> -t <statistic type>
Note the following:
<statistic type> must agent, application, skillset, ivr, nodal, or route
The multicast address must be specified if the -s or -t options are used.
The -s or -t options can be used individually.
Result: The output log file is printed to the screen at run time to a text file to
the following location: <drive>:\Program Files\Nortel Networks\
WClient\Server\IPRcvLog.txt.
where [x] is the drive letter for the hard drive on which the operating system
is installed.
2 Enter the following command:
icertdtrace -r IPSend <IP Multicast send address> -s <CCMS server
name> -t <statistic type>
Note the following:
<statistic type> must be agent, application, skillset, ivr, nodal, or route
Check the application event log in the Windows Event viewer. If the event log
contains errors relating to machine names or IP addresses, verify that all the
configured Contact Center Manager Servers can be reached by their specified
names (that is, ping the individual names and verify that the IP address that the
system uses in the ping is the same one that appears in the Contact Center
Manager Administration Configuration screen).
If you experience problems with Real-Time Displays, you can use the Multicast
Receive utility (mRcv.exe) on the Contact Center Manager Server to test the
RSM service.
d. Modify the IP address or the port number, or both. The IP address field
must be the multicast IP address of the Contact Center Manager
Server. The port number corresponds to the port number of the statistic
that you want to test.
Note: The port numbers listed within the section bordered by the number
(#) symbols in the mRcv.ini file are for reference only and list all of the
acceptable port numbers that you can use in your test. You can use these
port numbers as an easy-to-access list of valid ports that are being used in
the system to display data. The only portion of the mRcv.ini file that can be
modified is the [MCast] section at the bottom of the file.
For example, if you want to test receipt of Skillset - Interval to date data
using mRcv.exe, check the port number for Skillset - Interval to date in the
mRcv.ini file, and then change the port number for Skillset - Interval to date
in the mRcv.ini file, and then change the Port=setting in the [Mcast] section
to that port number. If Skillset - Interval to date = 6040 in the mRcv.ini file,
the [Mcast] section of the mRcv.ini file must be modified as follows:
[MCast]
IP=234.5.6.7
Port=6040
Attention: The IP address must match your IP multicast address.
e. Save the mRcv.ini file.
Note: The mRcv.exe utility displays all data being received on the selected
port, including data that is not recognizable by RSM. All non-RSM data is
identified as “Not recognized by RSM.”
5 Save the mRcv.exe utility data.
a. Run mRcv.exe from the command prompt (that is,
<drive>:\Nortel\iccm\bin\mrcv>log.txt).
Result: The log file with the name log.txt is saved in the same folder as

Solution
On the Contact Center Manager Administration server, verify the following:
that the Contact Center Manager Server IP address can be correctly
resolved to the server name
that the Contact Center Manager Server name can be correctly resolved to
the expected IP address
On the Contact Center Manager Server, ensure that the RSM Compression
option has not been selected in the RTD Multicast Controller window. If you
select the RSM Compression option when you configure Contact Center
Manager Server, Real-Time Displays and Agent Desktop Displays do not
function in Contact Center Manager Administration.
7 Press Enter.
Result: The Contact Center Manager Server name and the packets sent
and received are displayed.
8 If unexpected results are returned, check your DNS setting and the local
host file on the server for incorrect entries.
Solution
If you cannot launch Real-Time Displays on a client PC, it can be because you
have enforced user policies that deny access to the registry on the PC, and,
therefore, prevent the system from downloading and registering the new
RTDControl.
Some Real-time Displays cannot launch and the other displays that can launch
display negative values and long data strings.
Solution
On the Contact Center Manager Server, ensure that the RSM Compression
check box is clear in the RTD Multicast Controller window. If you select the
RSM Compression check box when you configure Contact Center Manager
Server, Real-Time displays and Agent Desktop Displays do not function in
Contact Center Manager Administration.

Ensuring the anonymous user account has been assigned the correct
permissions
If your anonymous user account is modified, this may cause *unknown* to
appear in Standard Agent Display. If the user specified is not the default, then
the new user must have access to all of the files under the Program Files\Nortel

Displays do not display data for a Contact Center Manager Server site
configured on the Contact Center Manager Administration server with a fully
qualified hostname (for example, CCMS_test1.enterprise.europe.nortel.com).
Skillsets from a server configured in this way do not display.
Solution
You must use the non-fully qualified hostname (for example, CCMS1_test1).
The nodal displays for the site function correctly when added by IP address.
Solution
Modify the server configuration so that the server is entered by name.
When launching an agent map saved in SWC 4.5 SU06, you receive the
following error:
“Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'
Type Mismatch”
Solution
Resubmit the agent map and launch the agent map again.
When you change the first and last name of an agent that is logged out on the
agent details page in Contact Center Manager Administration, and then log on
the same agent and relaunch the Standard Agent Display, the agent name
appears unchanged.
Solution
Restart the Contact Center Manager Administration IceRTDService and
relaunch the Standard Agent Display.

configure Agent Desktop Display” on page 620.
You try to run historical reports, but when you connect to the server in Contact
Center Manager Server, the following error message occurs: “There is a problem
connecting to the data source.”
Solution
This problem can occur if:
The bindings order of the ELAN subnet network card and the Nortel server
subnet network card on the Contact Center Manager Server is not set up
correctly. You must configure the bindings order of the network interface
cards so that the Nortel server subnet card comes first, then the ELAN
subnet card, and then the virtual adapters for remote access. For details, see
the solution listed in the entry, ““No Supervisors Defined” error messages
appear in Contact Center Management” on page 3153.
You did not refresh your server. In the Configuration component of Contact
Center Manager Administration refresh the server to validate the
configured server details. For information about refreshing servers, see
“Refreshing a single server,” on page 2981.

want to refresh the selected server.
d. Click Yes.
9 On the Launchpad, select Logout.
10 Log back on to Contact Center Manager Administration.
You cannot print scheduled reports from the Historical Reporting component.
Solution
To print scheduled reports from the Historical Reporting component, you must
add and configure a local printer on the Contact Center Manager Administration
server while logged on as the administrator. To ensure the printer is configured
correctly, see “Option 1: Configuring a network printer on the CCMA server” on
page 325.
This problem can occur if the Contact Center Manager Administration IIS
directory security account (that is, IUSR_SWC) cannot read the report template
on the network drive.
Solution
1. Verify the network access.
2. Make sure this report is not running.
3. Change the attributes of this report template on the network drive and
resave this report in Crystal software.
4. On Contact Center Manager Administration server, run the Synchronize
User Imported Report Templates again.
Alternatively, you can use the net use command to verify whether you can map
to the report folder on the network drive from the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
1 On the Contact Center Manager Administration server, go to MS DOS
prompt and run the net use command as follows:
NET USE \\<computername>\<sharename> password of IUSR_SWC /
USER:IUSR_SWC
2 If the network drive cannot be mapped, check the permission on the report
folder on the network drive.
3 If the network drive can be mapped but synchronization status shows
Access denied on the network drive, contact Nortel support.
Alternatively, you can use the net use command to verify whether you can map
to the report folder on the network drive from the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
1 On Contact Center Manager Administration server, go to MS DOS prompt
and run the net use command as follows:
NET USE \\<computername>\<sharename> password of IIS domain
account /USER:domain name\IIS Domain Account Name.
2 If the network drive cannot be mapped, check the permission on the report
folder on the network drive.
3 If the network drive can be mapped but synchronization status shows
Access denied on the network drive, contact Nortel support.
Solution
Resave report templates that cannot be imported and that run on Crystal Reports
8.5 or earlier versions of Crystal Reports into Crystal Reports 9 or Crystal
Reports 10. After you resave the report templates into Crystal Reports 9 or
Crystal Reports 10, you can import the report templates into Contact Center
Manager Administration.
This is not always a problem; therefore, Nortel recommends that only customers
experiencing this issue perform this procedure.
3 Copy all custom report templates created in Crystal 8.5 or earlier versions
into the directory OldVersionTemplates.
4 On the PC on which you have installed Crystal Reports 10, create a new
directory named Crystal10Templates.
5 Open the Crystal Reports 10 software.
6 Click File > Open.
7 Go to the OldVersionTemplates directory to select one of the templates.
8 Click Open.
9 Click File > Save As to save the report template into a Crystal 10 version
template.
10 Browse to the Crystal10Templates directory and click Save.
Result: The report template is saved into a Crystal 10 version template in
the Crystal10Templates directory.
11 Repeat steps 6 - 10 for each of the report templates in the
OldVersionTemplates directory.
12 After you save all the required templates into a Crystal Reports 10 version
template, copy the Crystal Reports 10 templates to the desired PC that you
want to use for Contact Center Manager Administration browser to import
these report templates.
When you access the Historical Reporting component and attempt to retrieve a
large list of agents in the selection criteria, a blank list is returned.
Solution
Increase the OAM Timeout value in the Real-Time Reporting settings to retrieve
the agent details. For example, set the OAM Timeout value to 40000 for 4000
configured agents.
When a historical report is run, the Column Names text and the data runs over
the line, making the report unreadable.
Solution
The issue is caused by the printer driver on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server. The generic text printer installed on the Contact Center
Manager Administration server conflicts with the report formats. The resolution
is to remove the generic text printer from the Contact Center Manager
Administration server and install the printer driver that a Crystal Web process
can see (for example, HP LaserJet 4000 Series).
Solution
If the Nortel server subnet address and the ELAN subnet address are both listed,
remove the ELAN subnet address.
Solution
Use the iceAdmin Password Change Utility to reset the scheduled report account
or account password. This resets all the scheduled reports to use the correct
account name and password to export reports.
To verify the network access from Contact Center Manager Administration, use
scheduled report account name (iceAdmin or the domain account) and password
for this account to map the network drive to which the report is to be exported.
Alternatively, you can use the net use command to verify whether you can map
to the directory folder on the network drive from the Contact Center Manager
Administration server.
1 On Contact Center Manager Administration server, go to MS DOS prompt
and run the net use command as follows:
If you use iceAdmin as your scheduled report folder, type NET USE
\\<computername>\<sharename> password of iceAdmin /
USER:iceAdmin
or
If you use the domain account as your scheduled report folder, type NET
USE \\<computername>\<sharename> password of iceAdmin /
USER:<domain account name>
2 If the network drive cannot be mapped, check the permission on the report
folder on the network drive.
3 If the network drive can be mapped, try creating a file on the network folder.
If you cannot create a file on the network folder, check the share
permissions on the network folder from the network PC. It must be set to
Read/Change for the account you have set up on the network PC.
4 If you can create a file on the network folder but the scheduled report export
still fails, contact Nortel support.
Solution
To solve this issue, complete the following tasks:
Ensure that the IIS default security account under anonymous access is a
member of the backup operators group.
Reset scheduled report account or account password using the iceAdmin
Password Change utility.
10 In the Enter Domain Account Password box, type the domain account
password.
Tip: You must enter the correct domain account password. If the password
is incorrect, the system does not proceed.
11 In the Confirm Domain Account Password box, retype the domain
account password.
12 Click OK.
Result: The iceAdmin Password Change dialog box reappears and
activates all scheduled reports using the domain account instead of the
local iceAdmin account.
13 Click OK.
Result: The system ensures that you typed the same password both
times, and then resets the password in all required components.
14 Close all windows to complete the procedure.
Your historical reports always display and print in portrait orientation even if the
report template is designed for landscape mode, thereby truncating part of the
report data columns.
Solution
This issue is caused by the printer driver on the Contact Center Manager
Administration server. Remove the “Microsoft Office Document Image Writer”
printer from the Contact Center Manager Administration server.
When exporting a large report to PDF, the following error message appears:
“The report was not exported. The selected export format may be disabled on the
server.”
The error message appears if you attempt to export a report to PDF that has more
than 360 pages.
Solution
To export a report to PDF with more than 360 pages, you must use the page
selection fields to export reports in batches of 360 pages or less. For example,
export page 1 to page 360 to PDF. Then for the remaining pages, select these
pages using ranges of 360 pages or less.
There are fonts missing from the font list on the Configuration Settings page and
the Report Layout page in Report Creation Wizard.
Solution
The available fonts in Report Creation Wizard are the fonts installed on the
Contact Center Manager Administration server. Verify with the administrator
that the installed fonts meet the following requirements:
The font must be a TrueType font.
The font must support the following styles: Regular, Bold, Italic,
Underlined, and Strikethrough.
The font must support ANSI or Symbol character sets. The font can also
support other character sets, such as ShiftJIS or ChineseBig5.
Fonts installed on the Contact Center Manager Administration server that do not
meet these requirements are not available in Report Creation Wizard.

Cannot view agents or skillsets in User Defined Partitions view 3152
Cannot create Report Groups due to failure of XML counter upgrade 3155
When in the User Defined Partitions view of Access and Partition Management,
you cannot view agents or skillsets on a selected user-defined partition.
Solution
Ensure that all servers configured in Contact Center Manager Administration are
fully operational. If a server that is not fully operational is listed for the user-
defined partition, a failure to display agent and skillset information for the
remaining servers can result.
You added supervisors through Contact Center Management and exited the
component. When you return to the component and select the same server in
Contact Center Manager Server on which you defined the supervisors, you find
that the supervisors are not there, and an error message appears stating “No
Supervisors Defined.”
Solution
1. This problem can occur when the bindings order of the ELAN subnet
network card and Nortel server subnet network card on the server in
Contact Center Manager Server is not set up correctly. You must configure
the bindings order of the network interface cards so that the Nortel server
subnet card comes first, then the ELAN subnet card, and then the virtual
adapters for remote access.
2. Ensure that you have all Contact Center Manager Administration-specific
stored procedures on the Contact Center Manager Server.
When a user with the correct permissions, for example the webadmin user, tries
to create report groups, the user encounters the following error: “Unable to read
ADAM system parameters – Failed to add report group”

run correctly during the SU02 upgrade.
The log file created when you run the upgrade utility is in the Nortel Logs
folder. To confirm the error, confirm that the log file on the affected machine is
similar to the following example:
RemoveCounterXML.log
CCMA6.0: Adding Counter.xml value to ADAM as System

the Submit button remains disabled when you click individual agents,
skillsets, or access classes.
any selected options do not get updated correctly.
In Access and Partition Management, when you are viewing a partition and you
select a user from the Members area, you cannot see the selected user’s details.
Solution
This problem occurs only on PCs that are running Windows Server 2003 and
that are used to connect to Contact Center Manager Administration. When
Internet Explorer is used on a Windows Server 2003 platform, it includes the
new Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration, which is enabled by
default. This configuration is designed to decrease the exposure of the server to
potential attacks that can occur through Web content and application scripts.
One of the features of this configuration is to automatically block Web sites that
are not listed in the Trusted Sites zone. In Contact Center Manager
Administration, certain pages in Contact Center Management, Historical
Reporting, and Access and Partition Management that contain lists of agents,
skillsets, and access classes make use of a behind-the-scenes URL called
“about:blank” to display the information correctly. Even after you add the
Contact Center Manager Administration server URL as a Trusted Site (for
example, http://swcservername), you still need to add the “about:blank” URL as
a Trusted Site as well. This ensures that the “about:blank” URL is not blocked
by Internet Explorer, and that the Select All and Submit buttons function
properly.
For the solution to this problem, see “Problems with Select All in CCMA
components” on page 3158.
The amount of configuration data you can upload using the Contact Center
Manager Administration Configuration component is restricted by the limits you
have set in the Parameters tab of the Historical Statistics window in Contact
Center Manager Server. For example, if you have a limit of 240 configured
CDNs in the Historical Statistics on Contact Center Manager Server, you cannot
upload more than 240 CDNs using the Contact Center Manager Configuration
Tool spreadsheet. Always verify the Contact Center Manager Server limits
before beginning the upload process.
Solution
Check the following:
Ensure that the Security level is set to Medium, and Macros are enabled in
Tools > Macro > Security.
If you use a client PC to upload or download configuration data, ensure that
the Contact Center Manager Administration application can be accessed
from the client with the Contact Center Manager Administration Server
Name.
The number of agent-to-skillset and agent-to-supervisor assignments that
you can upload from the Contact Center Manager Configuration Tool
spreadsheets is restricted to the number of worksheet columns that your
version of Microsoft Excel supports.
