Chapter 1

CMS Configurations, Installations, and Upgrades

Duration: 1.5 hours


Chapter 1, Module 1

Duration: 1.5 hours


Chapter Objectives

Identify the different CMS configurations a Business Partner might be required to administer for a customer.

After you complete this chapter, you will be able to:


R15 and R16 CMS Supported Platforms For the first time, Avaya is selling and shipping two versions of CMS simultaneously.

R15 CMS is supported on the Sun Enterprise-V890, Netra-210, T5120, and T5220 platforms.

New R15 CMS installations are shipped on the T5120 and T5220.


R15 and R16 CMS Supported Platforms (Continued) R16 CMS is supported on the T5120 and T5220 platforms.

R16 CMS uses RAID for file the system and IDS raw partitions – as opposed to R15 that uses disk mirroring and soft partitioning.

R16 systems are built with RAID 10 performance and redundancy hardware installed and configured.


New Installation vs. Platform Upgrade Both are shipped as a new installation from the factory.

– On R15 CMS, standard CMS software is installed by default; expanded AUX is optional software.

– On R16 CMS, expanded AUX CMS software is the default and there is no other option.

A new installation is set up with new information from the customer.

A platform upgrade is typically set up to look like the existing CMS.


Baseload Upgrade A baseload upgrade requires a PCN to be ordered from Avaya Maintenance.

– PCN = Product Change Notice = bug fix load

They are customer installable, but typically not performed by a customer.

They are service affecting. Solaris patches and CMS software are updated.


Baseload Upgrade (Continued) Overview of process:

– Update Solaris patches and security script.

– Remove and install Supplemental Services if necessary.

– Remove CMS and say YES to preserve data.

– Install new CMS (and patches).

– Remove and install new Visual Vectors Server if necessary.

The process is documented in the Baseload Upgrade document: http://support.avaya.com/css/Products/P0030/Installation,%20Migrations,%20Upgrades%20&%20Configurations


CMS System Restore A system restore might be required if a disk crashes or for other unforeseen

circumstances.

A restore can be performed by the customer, but typically is not.

The process is documented in the Software Installation Maintenance and Troubleshooting document: http://support.avaya.com/css/Products/P0030/Installation,%20Migrations,%20Upgrades%20&%20Configurations


Quiz


Chapter 1, Quiz 1

1. Which platforms are supported in R16 CMS?

2. Which platforms are supported in R15 CMS?

3. True or False: Both R15 and R16 CMS releases are shipped with RAID hardware on the T5120 platforms.

4. True or False: CMS R15 is shipped with expanded AUX CMS as the default.

5. True or False: If an existing customer needs a platform upgrade, the system is shipped from the factory as if it was a system for a new customer.

6. True or False: An example of a baseload upgrade is an upgrade from R15 to R16 CMS.

7. True or False: Both baseload upgrades and system restores can be performed by a customer.


Q&A


CUE Upgrade: R15 vs. R16 CMS A customer can upgrade to R15 CMS if the customer is on a supported platform.

A CMS Upgrade Express (CUE) upgrade includes CUE software and new hard drives.

Because of Solaris changes, the CUE process has changed since R14 CMS and earlier releases.


CUE Upgrade: R15 vs. R16 CMS (Continued) R15 CUE:

– Netra upgrades to R15 CMS – no changes from the past.

– V890 upgrades require that the technician be on site to boot the CUE boot disk using the Solaris software DVD.

R16 CUE:

– RAID hardware is always included and must be installed before the CUE upgrade can be performed.

– Blank hard drives are shipped and the boot disk is built with a flash archive on the fly.


CUE Upgrade: R15 vs. R16 CMS (Continued) R15 to R16 CUE upgrade:

– The customer must already be on a T5120 or T5220.

– R16 CUE kit is shipped with RAID hardware since R15 customers on these platforms did not require RAID.


CUE Upgrade: R15 vs. R16 CMS (Continued) The CUE upgrade document is available for Avaya personnel only.

Upgrades are done by Avaya-authorized personnel based on the following conditions:

– In the United States and Canada, only Avaya CMS Provisioning personnel do upgrades. Avaya CMS Provisioning is assisted by on-site Avaya technicians.

– Outside the United States and Canada, Avaya-approved Business Partners or system integrators do upgrades.


Quiz


Chapter 1, Quiz 2

1. True or False: If an R14 customer wants to upgrade to R16 CMS, the CUE process can be used.

2. True or False: An R15 CUE kit is always shipped with RAID hardware that must be installed prior to the CUE upgrade.

3. True or False: The CUE process documentation is available on the Avaya Support Web site.

4. True or False: An R15 customer who is on a Netra 210 can use the CUE process to upgrade to R16 CMS.


Q&A


High Availability (HA) CMS Dual ACD links on the communication server.

Paired set of CMS servers each separately connected to one of the dual links, and through which simultaneous and identical sets of call data are received.

Separate network subnet connections for paired ACD-CMS combinations.


High Availability (HA) CMS (Continued) Both platforms in a HA configuration should be identical models and must have the

same/similar CMS software load.

Requires Avaya Professional Services admin sync software.

Avaya High Availability is documented at:http://support.avaya.com/css/Products/P0030/Installation,%20Migrations,%20Upgrades%20&%20Configurations

Survivable CMS During normal operation, the survivable CMS operates in a “standby mode.”

CMS only collects ACD call data during a failover from the surviving environment controlled by the active ESS or LSP.

Requires Avaya Professional Services admin sync software.


Standard vs. Expanded AUX CMS Standard CMS supports 10 AUX reason codes (0 to 9).

– For R15 CMS, systems are shipped from the factory with this version installed. Optional expanded AUX software is shipped if the customer orders it.

– For R16 CMS, all systems are shipped with Expanded AUX CMS and there is no other option.


Standard vs. Expanded AUX CMS (Continued) Expanded AUX CMS supports more than 10 AUX reason codes (0 to 99).

– For R15 CMS, all systems are shipped with Standard CMS installed. If there is expanded AUX CMS on the order, you’ll be required to remove Standard and install the Expanded AUX software.

– For R15 CMS, 15-minute intervals are not supported with expanded AUX CMS.

– In R16 CMS, expanded AUX CMS is the default and 15-minute intervals are supported.


Quiz


Chapter 1, Quiz 3

1. True or False: HA and Survivable CMS both require Avaya Professional Services admin sync software.

2. True or False: Survivable CMS simultaneously collects data as a backup to the primary CMS.

3. True or False: 15-minute intervals are supported with expanded AUX CMS in both R15 and R16 CMS releases.

New CMS from the Factory

Remember that systems are shipped from Sun’s factory for Avaya. Each system has all the software installed but is not administered.

Note that the system in the classroom has one ACD already set up and the link has been established. This is not what the systems look like straight from the factory.


Modem Connection The on-site technician will need to make the physical connections.

The proper adapters must be used for Avaya maintenance support access, and for alarm origination manager (AOM) to work properly (NAR only).

– remote console adaptor is connected to the modem.

– straight thru adaptor is connected to the CMS.

– 10-wire cable with ground runs between the two adapters.


If the system is remote, test dial-up access to the CMS. You should receive a connection and login prompt.

If the connection fails, verify that the adapters are connected properly.

If hardware is connected correctly but you still can’t get a connection, the technician will need to re-do the modem configuration. (See the job aid.)

Modem Connection (Continued)


Tape Drive Connection Use the provided SCSI cable between the CMS and the tape drive rack mount

assembly.

On the CMS, the SCSI port A is the upper connection.

Verify you can see the tape drive:

– mt –f /dev/rmt/0c status

HP DDS-4 DAT (Sun) tape drive:

sense key(0x6)= Unit Attention residual= 0 retries= 0

file no= 0 block no= 0


Customer Network Connection Connect the customer network to port 0.

Connect the switch link to port 1.

– This link can either be a direct connect with a cross-over cable or can be on a private network.

Chapter 2, Module 4: Prepare the CMS for Production

Duration: 3 hours


Module Objectives

Given a CMS system from the factory, use the job aid to prepare the system for production.

Verify that the system is ready to hand off to a customer before the cutover.



CMS from the Factory Recall from Chapter 1 that systems are shipped from the factory with all the required

software installed.

For R15, standard CMS is installed.

For R16, expanded AUX is installed and there is no other option.

With R15 CMS, there are separate CDs for CMS, VVS, CSS, and Informix.

With R16 CMS, all this software is on one DVD.


CMS Software Compatibility

CMS SUN Informix Informix Informix Informix Supp. Visual

Rls Solaris IDS SQL ILS ESQL/SDK Services Vectors

R15 10(10/08) 9.40-UC4 7.32-UC4 3.30-MC2 9.51UC3/2.31UC3 cssr15aa.b vvsr14aa.c

R16 10(10/08) 11.50-FC4 7.50-UC1 NA NA cssr16aa.c vvsr16aa.c

R16 CMS uses RAID 10; RAID is not used for R15 CMS.


Install Expanded AUX on R15 CMS Step 1: For R15, if the customer purchased expanded AUX, you must first remove

the standard CMS and install the expanded AUX CMS software.

– To find out if this is an R15 or R16 CMS and to get the load name, type pkginfo –x cms.

– The instructions are in the R15 Platform Upgrade document are NOT accurate; use our job aid.


Install Expanded AUX on R15 CMS (Continued) The key thing to remember is that you DO NOT preserve data in this process.

Not preserving data reinitializes the database and breaks the disk mirroring.

– Note that the document doesn’t include re-establishing disk mirroring.


Set up the CMS System Step 2: Set up default logins and passwords:

– The systems are shipped with root, cms, cmssvc, nuucp logins. From the factory, root has no password.

– Add root2 and nuucp2 logins:

• vi /etc/passwd

• Copy the line that includes the root login.

• Change root to root2; do the same for nuucpp2.

• Write and quit the file.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 2: Set up default logins and passwords (continued):

– vi references:

• http://www.lagmonster.org/docs/vi.html

• http://www.atmos.albany.edu/deas/atmclasses/atm350/vi_cheat_sheet.pdf

• http://www.eec.com/business/vi.html

– vi on-line tutorial:

• http://www.viemu.com/a_vi_vim_graphical_cheat_sheet_tutorial.html


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 2: Set up default logins and passwords (continued):

– Syntax to add a password: passwd <login>

– Change passwords to these defaults:

• cms sl33py (give this to customer)

• root cms500 (give this to customer)


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 3: Change the system uname:

– The default system uname is the serial number of the system.

– The following files need to be edited with vi editor:

• /opt/informix/etc/onconfig.cms

• /etc/hosts

• /etc/nodename

• /etc/hostname.* (two files for both interfaces)

• /usr/openwin/lib/xdm/Xservers

• /cms/install/cms_install/cms.install

• /var/sadm/pkg/cms/pkginfo

• /opt/informix/etc/sqlhosts/opt/cc/aas/admin.dat


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 4: Administer Ethernet IP addresses:

– The following files need to be changed:

• /etc/hosts – add/change the IP address info for each NIC the CMS will use, default gateway for each NIC (use router, router_1 for the node name), and the clan/ACD the CMS will connect to.

• /etc/netmasks – includes the netmask address

• /etc/defaultrouter – includes either the router address or the router name if it’s identified in /etc/hosts (primary NIC only)


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 5: Change the system time zone:

– ls /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo (lists time zone possibilities)

– vi /etc/default/init

• Set the time zone environmental variable in this file, for example, TZ=US/Central

• /etc/TIMEZONE is linked to /etc/default/init

– # ls -l /etc/T*

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Dec 16 13:58 /etc/TIMEZONE -> ./default/init


Chapter 2, Module 4 Exercise


Chapter 2 Module 4 – vi Practice

1. Change the /etc/passwd<student#> file by following Step 2a of the process.

2. Follow Step 5 to edit the time zone file, for example, /etc/default/init<student#>. Change the time zone for a system in New York City.

** Access CMS on Toolwire again (https://dcm.toolwire.com/pro). Access Terminal Emulator and log in to CMS as cms. **

Remember that typically you’d be doing these steps as root. In this training, you’re given only a student login. Be sure to use online vi references is necessary.

In this exercise, you will only be doing Steps 2a and 5 of your job aid.


Q&A


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 6: Reboot the system:

– shutdown –y –g0 –i6 takes CMS down and brings it back up to a login prompt (reboot) – aka init 6

– Note: shutdown –y –g0 –i0 takes system down to OK prompt – aka init 0


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 7: Authorize licenses:

– cmssvc: auth_display

– cmssvc: auth_set (requires password)

– Business Partners don’t have the authorization password and so are unable authorize the ACD, Supervisor, and Agent (Split/Skill Members) licenses.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 7: Authorize licenses (continued):

– Initial authorization licenses:

• The default is one ACD, two Supervisors, and one Agent.

• You will need to schedule Avaya to add the licenses on this system, and then come back and update the system based on the licenses.

• Based on the licenses, you will need to modify the following:

– Add additional ACDs if necessary

– Modify the Data Storage Allocation (DSA) based on agent licenses

> Split/skill members

> Total agents logged in


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 8: Run CMS setup:

– You should have either received a DSA form from the customer/project manager, or you will use default values for the DSA.

– Select the setup option from the cmssvc menu.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 9: Install the Forecasting feature:

– Avaya installs this feature by default even if customers don’t plan to use it.

– Type cmsadm: pkg_install to install the Forecasting feature.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 10: Turn on CMS and perform miscellaneous administration:

– Select the run_cms option from the cmssvc menu and then turn on cms.

– Miscellaneous administration a customer could request:

• 15-minute storage intervals: System Setup: Storage Intervals

• Master ACD: System Setup: CMS State

• Non-default storage intervals: System Setup: Data Storage Allocation


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 11: Verify the system while logged in as cms login:

– Once the system comes back up, verify the following things:

• Log in as cms (to verify the password).

• For R15 CMS, access the CMS menu and verify that the Free Space Allocation does not show negative values. If it does, modify the ACD. Exit back to Solaris. (See the screen shot on the next slide.)

• For R16 CMS, verify that you can access the CMS menu, and then exit back to Solaris.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 11: Verify the system with cms login (continued):

– R15 Free Space Allocation


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 11: Verify the system logged in as root (continued):

• su root and verify root password.

• Type “date” and verify that the system date, time, and time zone are accurate.

• If the customer’s network is available, you should be able to ping the router and switch.

– ifconfig –a

– ping router; ping switch

– netstat –nr


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 11: Verify the system logged in as root (continued):

• Verify that ODBC is running:

– . /opt/informix/bin/setenv (note dot space)

– onstat –g glo | grep tli (always running if IDS is on)

• If the customer is a new CMS user, it’s possible you can verify the link to the CM. Some places to check the status include:

– cd /cms/pbx/acd<#>; tail spi.err; you should be receiving data (DATAX).

– If the CMS is not receiving data from the CM, verify the CMS ACD administration (cmssvc: swinfo) and the CM link administration.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 11: Verify the system as root login (continued):

• If the system is R15 CMS, verify mirroring and disk drive:

– format (see screen shot)

– . /opt/informix/bin/setenv (note dot space)

– onstat –d | egrep “X|PD|MD|R” | pg (Informix command)

– metastat | grep State: | grep –v Okay | pg (Solaris command)

• If the system is R16 CMS, verify the status of the disk drive and RAID:

– format

– /opt/StorMan/arcconf getconfig 1 | egrep “logical device"



– R15 CMS T5220 format command



– R15 CMS T5220 onstat command


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 12: Turn on Alarm Origination Manager and Visual Vectors Server:

– “aom start” to turn on AOM

– AOM sends alarms to Avaya over the modem if any of these things is a problem:

• Switch link is down

• Disk problems

• Archiver problems

– “setupaas” to turn on VVS

• Even if a customer doesn’t use Visual Vectors Server, Avaya turns it on.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Optional step: Migrate system admin data (optional):

– If this is a platform upgrade, and the cutover is within a week of this set up, customers typically want to have their admin data (users, dictionary, and so on) migrated.

– If tape drives are compatible, run a maintenance backup on the old system and move the tape to the new system.

– Tape drive compatibility:

• DDS4 cannot read or write to Dat72 tape.

• Dat72 tape can read and write to a DDS4 tape.

• LT0-4 is not compatible with either tape.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Optional step: Migrate system admin data (continued):

– Maintenance backup:

• From the CMS menu, select Maintenance: Back Up Data

• Backup log: /cms/maint/backup/back.log

– Migrate data:

• From the CMS menu, select System Setup: R3 Migrate Data

• System admin and Agent/Call Center admin migrations require the system to be in single-user mode.

– System admin can only be run ONCE!

• Historical migration is not service affecting.


Set up the CMS System (Continued) Step 13: Make a system backup of the new CMS:

– Since this is all that can be done until cutover, it’s a good idea to have a system backup of what the system looks like now.

– As root, type “cmsadm” to display the menu.

– Select the item associated with system backup.

– Backup log: /cms/install/logdir/backup.log

Chapter 2, Module 5: Schedule Avaya Professional Services

Duration: 1 hour


Module Objectives

Determine when to schedule the following with Avaya:

– License additions

– Data migration

– Third-party interfaces

Modify the CMS based on these changes.



Schedule Professional Services with Avaya ACD, Supervisor, and Agent RTU licenses need to be authorized by Avaya

Professional Services (APS).

– After the Agent RTU (and split/skill members) is authorized, DSA will need to be modified to support the agent/skill pairs and agent login (See the screen shot on the next slide.).

– CM6 supports 120 skills per agents.

– CM3-CM5.2 supports 60 skills per agents.

Business Partners need to schedule APS at [email protected] .


DSA with 1 agent RTU


Default Authorizations


Schedule Professional Services with Avaya Third-party interfaces must be installed by Avaya. These can include:

– Work Force Management (WFM)

– Geotel

– Network printers

– Admin Sync (auto sync) for HA CMS

Note

These third-party applications are not covered in this class. The interfaces are supported by Avaya, but the applications are not.


Schedule Professional Services with Avaya A data migration will need to be scheduled with Avaya if the tape drives are not

compatible. Avaya will perform a “remote tape copy” migration.

Tape drive compatibility review:

– A Dat72 tape drive can read a DDS4 tape.

– A Dat72 tape drive can write to a DDS4 tape.

– A DDS4 tape drive cannot write to a Dat72 tape.

– A DDS4 tape drive can read a DAT72 tape.

– A LT0-4 tape drive cannot read from other tapes or write to other tapes.


Quiz



1. What are the default licenses that a system is shipped with?

2. If a customer purchases 200 agent RTUs and has a Communication Manger 6, what can the split/skill member value be in DSA?

3. If a customer purchases 200 agent RTUs and has a Communication Manger 5.2, what can the split/skill member value be in DSA?

4. Which values in the DSA screen must be modified after the agent authorization is made?

– Beginning with R16.1, T5220 will be shipped with the LT0-4 tape drive; T5120 can have Dat-72 or LT0-4.

– Determine if the tape drives are compatible:

• Dat-72 can read and write a DDS4 tape.

• DDS4 can only read a Dat-72 tape.

• The new LT0-4 tape drive is not compatible with either Dat-72 or DDS4.


Register the CMS with Sun and Avaya Sun maintenance begins only when Sun receives notification of this CMS at a particular

customer address.

– APAC send the attached form to [email protected]; all others send it to [email protected].
