TASK 1: UCCX 8.0 Install

There are several stages to the installation of UCCX. The first requires the administrator to answer a series of questions. The second involves the actual install. During the install there are again four notable stages that the install process will go through. The first of these is the install of the base OS. The second is the install of the Informix database and the third is the install of UCCX and the fourth and final stage is the Post-Installation steps. All of these steps will require several hours to complete. During the install for the lab it was noted that the install took approximately 2.5 hours.
Installation Information Gathering

The following steps out line the information gathering before the installation completes. If the participant is already familiar with the appliance version of CUCM then this will be very familiar territory. Before installing Cisco Unified Contact Center Express gather information for each server being installed in the cluster and obtain a print out of the data. Before You Begin Use Table 1 to record the information about your Cisco Unified Contact Center Express server. The information in the BLUE Bold type is what will be used in the lab. The last column in the table shows whether a field can be changed after installation, and if so, whether you can change it through Operating System Administration or through the Command Line Interface (CLI). You cannot change some of the fields after installation without reinstalling the software, so ensure that you enter the values you require. Because some fields are optional, they may not be relevant to your configuration. For example, you may choose not to set up an SMTP host.

How to License Your New UCCX 8.0 Platform

A UCCX Node Locked license will need to be obtained before proceeding with the Initial Configuration Wizard. With the release of UC System 8.0 a change is being made to the MAC address information that is used to obtain a license file. In place of using the hardware MAC address, a License MAC is generated during the installation process. This License MAC along with your PAK (which you will receive with your media kit) will be requested at http://www.cisco.com/go/license to generate your license file. More information can be obtained by reviewing the Cisco Unified Contact Center Install Guide. There are several pieces of information that are used to generate License MAC such as: Time zone NTP server 1 (or 'none') NIC speed (or 'auto') Hostname IP Address (or 'dhcp') , IP Mask (or 'dhcp') , Gateway Address (or 'dhcp') Primary DNS (or 'dhcp') SMTP server (or 'none') Certificate Information (Organization, Unit , Location , State , Country) The licensing MAC can be obtained via Command Line Interface (CLI) or via the GUI interface.
A few words about licensing

A further look at Licensing

License files can be added to the system in two different ways. The first is via the Initial Configuration Wizard and the second is via the System Menu. Via the System menu License Information can either be viewed to see what is currently configured on the system or to make any license changes. Please be sure to read the information about Node Locked licenses at the beginning of this guide. Remember ANY changes made to the underlying system information will require a new license file. If a change is required there will be a 30 day grace period applied to the system. This should be sufficient time to obtain a new license file. If one is not applied within the 30 days, the UCCX system will cease to function. Every time an AppAdminitrator logs into the system a pop up box will indicate that the system is running on a system where a new license file is required. In fact will show how many days are remaining on the temp license. Step 9: Step 10: Return to AppAdmin using the Navigation menus. From the main menus select System License Information Display License(s).

A trigger will be one of two types: Unified CM Telephony Trigger HTTP Trigger
What is a Trigger?
A Unified CM Telephony Trigger is just another way to say Route Point. This is the number that can be called or have calls directed to that will invoke an application that will then direct the caller to an agent. An HTTP Trigger is used to invoke an application by making a selection from within a web browser.
Page 34 of 50
Step 8: Step 9:
The Trigger will be a Unified CM Telephony Trigger. Click Next.
Step 10:
A Trigger will be created for each Application. Configure the two triggers with the following criteria:
Application Trigger 1 Sales 5000
Parameter Directory Number
Application Trigger 2 Support 6000
This needs to be a unique DN that will be configured by the UCCX system on CUCM. English (United States) [en_US]
Language
English (United States) [en_US]
This can be left at the system default or a selection can be made from the drop down list. Sales
Application Name
Support
This will auto fill when configured from Application Management. CTI_RP_Sales
Device Name
CTI_RP_Support
Give the CTI Route Point a name that will easily identify it and its purpose on CUCM.
Description
Enter in a brief description. Unified CM Telephony Group#5000Sales
Call Control Group
Unified CM Telephony Group#6000Support
Select the previously configured Call Control Group (CTI Port Group) that was created for this application.

Summary View To obtain a summary overview of what is included in a script configuration from the Application List page, click on the Summary button.
The following summary information is displayed on the Application Provisioning page and can also be modified from this location.
Where is CAD?
Depending on how CCX is licensed, the agents interface will be either Cisco Agent Desktop (CAD), a client that is run on the agent workstation, or Cisco Agent Desktop Browser Edition (CAD-BE), a browser based client. Step 1: Step 2: From the main menu select Tools Plug-ins. Click on the Cisco Unified CCX Desktop Suites link.
Page 36 of 50
If this the first time that CAD is being installed first download and run or run from the server the Cisco Unified CCX Client Configuration Tool. This tool sets up the msi installers for all three desktop clients on the server so that they can be downloaded onto a workstation. The clients cannot be downloaded until this client is run. Run the Client Configuration Tool. Log out of AppAdmin and log back in again. Return to the Tools Plugins page. Click on the Cisco Unified CCX Desktop Suites link. Now click Cisco Unified CCX Agent Desktop link and either run the install from here or download a copy of the client to the workstation and then perform the install.
Step 3: Step 4: Step 5: Step 6: Step 7:
2 1
The install of CAD requires Java Runtime Environment 1.6 to be installed. If it is not found on the workstation the CAD installer will install it. Now login to the Agent2 PC. (These next steps can be completed by your lab partner if you have one. Just follow the same connection instructions as outline Open IE and browse to the AppAdmin pages. Login in with: a. Username uccxAdmin b. Password Cisc0123
Step 11: Step 12:
From the main menus select Tools Plugins Install the Cisco Unified CCX Supervisor Desktop client.
Cisco Unified Desktop Administrator

The Cisco Agent Desktop (CDA) client will run as is without any further configuration however most environments would like to customize what quick task functionality can be given to the agents. This customization is done via the Cisco Desktop Administrator. The CDA steps below are included to show what is configured via CDA as opposed to what is now done via the Web CDA. Step 15: Step 16: Expand the work flow all the way to the CAD Agent User Interface. Update the Site Name to AppAdmin.
Page 37 of 50
Enter the URL https://10.1.100.110/appadmin Click Add. Click Apply.
So Ive done all of this configuration. Does UCCX 8.0 really work?
Well lets log the agents into their CADs and place some calls back and forth.
A Quick Check
Before running CAD make sure that the phones are registered with the uccxRMCM user created earlier. This should be completed by the RmCm Wizard however experience has shown that its better to check and be sure. Step 20: Step 21: Step 22: Step 23: Step 24: Step 25: If not already connected to CUCM, browse to https://10.1.100.100/ccmadmin Login with Administrator and Cisc0123. From the main menus select User Management Application Users. Click Find. Click on the uccxRMCM user. Make sure that both users phones are in the Associated Devices box.
Using CAD in 8.0

Step 1: Log Agent 1 into their CAD. a. Username agent1 b. Password Cisc0123 c. ICD Extension 3009
Make the Agent Ready. From the second Workstation dial the extension 6000. On the Agent1 Workstation the call is presented to the agent and they are able to answer the call.
CCX Editor
Via the App Admin it is not possible to view or download the system default scripts such as aa.aef, icd.aef and so forth. Installing the CCX Editor will also include and not limited to the basic aa.aef, icd.aef scripts so they can be customized. Step 1: Step 2: Launch the CRS Editor from the Agent 1 Workstation. Start Program Files Cisco Unified CCX Editor_801 Cisco Unified CCX Editor. Log in to the Editor with the uccxAdmin credentials.
Step 3: Step 4:
Click on the Open Folder icon. Browse to the wfavvid_801 Scripts System Default directory to find the system default scripts.
Step 5:
Take a few moments to browse through one or two scripts.

Page 39 of 50
Step 6: Step 7:
Close any scripts that may have been opened. From the menus select Debug Reactive Script.
Step 8:
In the pop up box type in the following: a. Script name SSCRIPT[icd.aef]
Tip: The script needs to be entered in the way the system sees it. When a script is selected on the Applications Applications Management screen in AppAdmin this will show how the systems sees the script. b. Wait Time (secs) 120 Enter in enough time so that the script can be triggered. Notice how the Reactive Debugging Script now shows a countdown timer showing how many seconds are remaining before the reactive script will time out.
Step 9: Step 10:
Keeping focus on the Agent 1 Workstation, return to the phone on Agent 2 Workstation and dial ext 6000. Watch how the CCX Editor pops up the icd.aef script as it is triggered by the call to ext 6000.
Page 40 of 50
Step 11:
Using the navigation / debug tools step through the script and listen to the response on the phone.

Task 5: Maintaining UCCX

File Management
File management changes with UCCX moving to an appliance. It is no longer possible to load any kind of third party application to the platform Any files that may have been stored in user defined subdirectories on the Window platform will now need to be uploaded to the Repository on Linux platform. This file management is done via the AppAdmin interface and does not require the administrator to access the CLI to upload or download any files. Files will be managed from the Applications menu as described in the steps below. Step 1: Return to the browser and if logged out, log back into App Admin. a. Username uccxAdmin b. Password Cisc0123
Upload a new script

Step 2: Step 3: From the main menus select Applications Script Management. Click on Create New Folder.
Step 4:
Give the folder a name such as AutoAttendant.
Click Create. Click Return to Script Management. Select the new AutoAttendant Folder.
Page 42 of 50
Step 8:
Click on Upload New Script.
Step 9: Click Browse and browse to the Shared Documents Scripts Folder on the Agent 1 Workstation.
Step 10:
Click on Upload.
Step 11: Step 12:
Click on Return to Script Management. The newly uploaded script is now available for use from the system Repository.
Step 13: Return to Application Application Management and insert the new script into one of the already available CSQ.
Step 14:
Update the necessary fields to reflect the new script.
Note: The Script name is now only preceded by SCRIPT whereas if a system scripts was chosen the script would be preceded with SSCRIPT. Step 15: Test the newly installed script by dialing extension 6000 from Agent 2 Workstation.

Am I running out of Disk space?

Now that any files used by the UCCX system need to be on box how is disk space managed? With the move to the appliance, opening My Computer and checking how much space is consumed is no longer possible. In fact many things that weve become accustomed to doing with regards to checking on system statistics via a Windows interface is now done via the Real Time Monitoring Tool. So to find out if the appliance is running out of disk space lets launch RTMT and take a look. Note: The RTMT is specific to the version of CUCM or UCCX. If you receive an error when logging in close the login window and launch the correct tool. Step 16: Login to the Tool using the following: a. Host IP Address is the address of the CRS Server 10.1.100.110. b. User Name Administrator (OS Administrators account) c. Password Cisc0123 Step 17: Step 18: Step 19: Leave the remaining default selections and click OK. Click OK to select the Default configuration. From the System Server menu select Disk Usage.
The RTMT will show both graphically and through number representation what the disk usage amount is.
Page 44 of 50
The RTMT is used not only to check on disk space but its also used to monitor the rest of the system. Some might recognize this as looking very similar to PerfMon and you would be correct. RTMT can show a system overview. Step 20: Click on System Summary under the left System menus. Using this summary the administration can get a quick overview of the system performance and if any Alerts were issued.
RTMT can also be configured to send email or pages or both which would alert a system administrator to any thresholds that are being surpassed and resulting in a negative impact on system performance. Another important task that the system administrator may need to perform is extracting log files to help with troubleshooting. The following illustrates how to extract and view the MIVR and MADM files. Step 21: From the System menu click on Trace & Log Central
Step 22: Step 23:
Click on the Cisco Engine and Cisco JTAPI check boxes. Click Next.
Page 45 of 50
Step 24: Step 25:
Click Next. Select the Collection Time criteria for the log file extraction.
Step 26: Step 27:
Select the location where to export the files to. Click Finish.
Page 46 of 50
Step 28:
Browse to the location of the log files. C:\Program Files\Cisco\CallManager Serviceability\LogFiles uccx80pm MIVR folder..
Step 29:
Double Click on one of the files.
Step 30:
Open the file using WordPad.

Task 6: Reporting
Agent Multi-Line Reporting via Historical Reporting
What is Multi-Line Reporting?... Multi-Line reporting is a capability added to the default HR tool with version 8.0. This report allows the contact center to show calls to or from an agent that do not begin or end on an ICD line. If an agent has multiple lines for either personal use or to answer other queues previous this was not possible to report on. With Ver. 8.0 this is now possible. If an organization uses overflow extensions for a queue that has no available agents as a catch all they will now be able to report back on this kind of catch all. This would allow the Supervisor to determine whether or not too add agents based on this information. Alternatively if an agent is not performing to expectations and this is a result of them always being on the phone this will give concrete evidence to this kind of behaviour.
Why would I want to see this information?
One of the most important tasks in a Contact Centre is Reporting. Reporting on the number of calls that come into a queue, the number of calls agents are able to handle and the list goes on and on. If this is the first time using Contact Centre Express there are two ways to see agent statistics. The first is the Real Time Reporting via the GUI interface under the AppAdmin pages. This information is exactly what is says Real Time. What is happening right now with a queue, how many calls are in queue, how many outbound calls are in progress etc, etc. The second kind of reporting is using the Historical Reporting client. The following outlines where the client is located and then focuses on reporting back on Multi-Line usage. Step 1: Step 2: Log into the AppAdmin pages. From the Tool Plug-ins menu select the Cisco Unified CCX Historical Reports link. Note: The HR client is already installed on the Agent1 PC.
Either download the client to the workstation or run the installation from this location. Once installed double click on the Cisco Unified CCX Historical Reports icon on the desktop. Login to the client as: a. Username agent2 b. Password Cisc0123 c. Server 10.1.100.110
Step 6:
Click OK.
Page 48 of 50
Step 7:
Using the HR console select whether to schedule the running of a report or select a report to be run and viewed now.
Note: It is still recommended that the running of any HR is done during off peak hours.
Step 8:
Under the General Tab select to run the Detailed Call by Call CCDR.
These reports will also show information on multi-line reports: Agent Call Summary Report, Agent Detail Report, Agent Summary Report Step 9: Step 10: Step 11: Select an appropriate time frame. Click View. The result(s) of the report will be displayed in the Report Viewer.
Page 49 of 50
This report shows that the agents not only handled calls that came into the queue but that calls were either initiated from or terminated on their non-ICD extension. Step 12: This report can be exported to several formats including as an MS Excel spreadsheet. To export the report click on the Export icon in the top left of the Report Viewer. Select the format for the export. In this instance PDF was chosen. Select where to save the file to under Destination.
Step 13: Step 14:
Step 15: Step 16:
Click OK. Select the range of data to be exported.
Step 17: Step 18:
Select the location of where to save the export result to. A progress window opens and depending on the amount of data being exported may only appear briefly.
The End
Thank you for participating!
