Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Third Party Software Notification Application


As part of a 6.3 Service Pack 11 deployment, a Third Party Software Notification Application is
installed.

This application checks the integrity of the Third Party software required by Avaya Aura®
Contact Center. If the application detects that necessary Third Party software requires updating, it
will prompt the user to run the Third Party Software Upgrade Utility to check their system and
upgrade if necessary.

At each system reboot, an application dialog will be displayed with details of the Third Party
software status. This dialog can be dismissed and the application will minimize to the system
tray. At intervals, notification messages are displayed in the system tray area in the form of a
notification bubble if action is required. The main application form will be displayed if a user
clicks on this notification or on the Avaya system tray icon
The Notification application cannot be closed – it runs at all times.

This application remains resident on the system after removal of Avaya Aura® Contact Center
6.3 Service Pack 11.
This allows for the ongoing provision of advice to the user, regarding the Third Party software
state.

Application Behaviour
If the upgrade of Third Party software is not performed after the installation of 6.3 Service Pack
11, the Third Party Notification Application will intermittently (approximately once per hour)
notify the user that action is required.

If after deployment of Service Pack 11, a user chooses to remove all installed Service Packs, the
application (after a period) will provide advice to the user in preparation for the installation of the
next Service Pack.
For example, if a user wishes to install a pre-6.3 Service Pack 10 line-up, the advice at this point
is to run the Third Party Software Downgrade Utility to verify the Third Party software state.

Logging Information
The application generates a log file.
Log file title : AACC - Third Party Software Notification Application.log
Log file location : C:\Avaya\Logs\Sysops\ThirdPartySoftwareNotificationApplication

This log file is accessible from the main dialog via the View Log button.
The log contains details of the currently installed Service Pack line-up, and in addition, details of
the installed or missing Third Party software components.

Internet Explorer Compatibility issues


Internet Explorer 10 not supported with AACC 6.3 SP11
Internet Explorer 10 has not been tested as part of the AACC 6.3 SP11 development cycle;
therefore it is not supported with this Service Pack. At time of writing, it is not possible to
provide a list of issues that may be encountered. However, based on experience with previous
Internet Explorer upgrades, it is likely that issues would occur.

AMS Element Manager


There have been instances of Element Manager not displaying correctly on IE9 systems
Workaround is to enable compatibility mode in Internet Explorer.

Microsoft support indicates that some websites might not display correctly in Windows Internet
Explorer 9. For example, portions of a webpage might be missing, information in a table might
be in the wrong locations, or colors and text might be incorrect. Some WebPages might not
display at all.
If a portion of the webpage doesn't display correctly, try one or more of the following
procedures:

To turn on Compatibility View


1. Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button
2. In the search box, type Internet Explorer, and then, in the list of results, click Internet
Explorer
3. Click the Compatibility View button on the Address bar

Issue with the retention of Configuration of WS Open Interface


When upgrading your system from a previous Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.x service packs
please perform the steps outlined below to verify that all configuration information has been
successfully retained.

Before Upgrade
On both active and standby servers:
- On the server hosting AACC CCT, open the CCT Console
(Start menu – AVAYA - Contact Center – Communication Control Toolkit – CCT
Console)

Avaya Inc Proprietary 30


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

- Select the CCT Web Services element under Server Configuration


- Take a screenshot of the console screen (see Figure 1 below for an example)
- Keep this for reference after upgrade has completed
- On the server hosting AACC CCMS, open the Server Configuration utility (Start menu –
AVAYA - Manager Server)
- Click on the WS Open Interfaces (on left hand side)
- Take a screenshot of the console screen (see Figure 1 below for an example)
- Keep this for reference after upgrade has completed

After Upgrade
On both active and standby servers
- Open the CCT Console Utility
- Select the CCT Web Services element under Server Configuration
- Ensure that the settings are the same as those in the screenshot for the CCT Console,
saved before the upgrade
- Open the Server Configuration utility
- Click on the WS Open Interfaces (on left hand side)
- Ensure that the settings are the same as those in the screenshot for the Server
Configuration, saved before the upgrade
Note: The UserPassword does not need to be modified. It is a system password and not
stored in a config file
- IMPORTANT: Ensure that the Domain Authentication Method setting is maintained e.g.
‘Simple’ in the example screenshots below

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Figure 2: Sample Screenshot of AACC Server Configuration Utility

HA SOA web services with TLS

SP10 introduced support for SOA HA on Mission Critical SIP HA systems. When configuring
TLS for SOA OI on HA it needs to be enabled on both the active and the standby servers as
seamless communication after switchover cannot occur if the transport (http - https and vice
versa) changes.

When configuring TLS for SOA OI on HA the host name in the ServerConfig utility must be the
managed server name and must match the managed server name on standby server.

When configuring TLS for SOA OI on HA exactly the same information, including case, needs
to be specified for CSR generation. In the case where ServerConfig is used to generate the CSR
the password is the only field to consider but in the case where CCT console is used to generate
the CSR the stipulation applies to the location, company and password fields (note that
ServerConfig (CCMS services) and CCT console(CCT services) both use the same security
certificate information located in common components/cmf/security i.e. once the security
certificate is successfully imported for one, the other will automatically be configured.)

If a mistake is made in configuring TLS for SOA OI on a HA setup the likely error will be that
exactly the same information was not inputted into the location, company or password fields on

Avaya Inc Proprietary 32


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

both the active and standby servers when the CSR was generated. The result of such a mistake
would be a variation in the keystore and/or password files held in the cmf/security directory on
each server.

The error would not cause a problem on the individual servers and would only become apparent
on a subsequent SOA OI call after a switchover had occurred (due to the client reacting to a
change in the server security certificate) and would manifest itself as a drop in the secure
connection.

 The easiest way to ensure that the certificate keystore and password files are identical on
both servers while eliminating the possibility of the same mistake being made again is to
manually copy the keystore and password files from the active to the standby (or vice
versa).
 The 2 files that need to be copied across (and hence overwritten) are:
o D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Common Components\CMF\Security\server.keystore
o D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Common Components\CMF\Security\ect_kstore

On HA systems, to configure the managed host name when configuring TLS please follow this
procedure:
1. Use the Server Configuration Utility web services section to enable SOA and update the
host field to the managed host name and click OK. See figure 2 above. Also, please note
that you cannot change the host name on the CCT console

2. Open the CCT console at the web services section. If you are prompted with the
following prompt, select No.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 33


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

3. Proceed to configure TLS using the CCT console. Select Apply all on the right hand side
and close the CCT console.

4. Return to the Server Configuration Utility and if using the CCMS web services, enable
TLS using the appropriate check box. Please note that the certificates are automatically
configured once you do this on either screen.

5. Reboot the server and the SOA services will be up after the reboot. This can be checked
by opening the OI splash page at http://localhost:9090. The services URLs listed should
be updated from http to https

Avaya Inc Proprietary 34


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

6. Repeat the above steps on the standby server, or copy the certificate files (server.keystore

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

SOA Preservation – Downgrade and Upgrade of Avaya Aura®


Contact Center Common Components
Scope: Only pertains to components Communication Control Toolkit (CCT), Contact Center
Manager Server (CCMS) and Contact Centre Common Components (CC).
In 6.2, Soa configuration data was stored in separate locations for applications CCT and CCMS.
An upgrade to 6.3 combines this data into a singular shared location within the Common
Components application.

 An upgrade from 6.2 to 6.3 preserves the current 6.2 configuration data without loss of
existing settings.
 A downgrade from a fresh (clean machine deployment) 6.3 installation to 6.2 results in
configuration data loss. The user must recreate their configuration data
 A downgrade from 6.3 to 6.2, on a machine that previously contained a SP5, SP6 or SP7
installation, results in historical 6.2 data being retrieved and used for the current 6.2
installation.
 A downgrade of 6.3 to 6.2, and subsequent re-upgrade to 6.3, results in previous 6.3
configuration data being retrieved and used for the current 6.3 installation.

Upgrade from 6.2 to 6.3


The 6.3 installation will retrieve previous 6.2 settings used for the CCT and CCMS components,
and carry these forward for use in 6.3.

Downgrade from 6.3, on a machine that had a previous 6.2 installation:


If the machine previously contained an SP5, SP6 or SP7 installation, configuration data from
these installations should be present in an archived file. This data will be retrieved and retained
as the most suitable configuration data for the current 6.2 deployment.

Upgrade to 6.3 after prior 6.3 downgrade to 6.2:


Upon removal of 6.3, the current configuration data will be archived for use in an upgrade
scenario.
As above, downgrade to 6.2 auto-reverts back to previous 6.2 data if it exists, otherwise the user
must recreate this manually.
Subsequent re-upgrade to 6.3 will retrieve and retain the archived 6.3 data.

Note: In all of the above cases, if further reconfiguration of the SOA data is required, the
following tools can be run -
Communication Control Toolkit : CCT Console
Contact Center Manager Server : Service Configuration

Remote Access
The AACC product will be supported using the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) Microsoft
Windows utility.

This utility will allow the Avaya support or design resource to remotely access the customer
server from a remote PC and be able to administer the server as if logged in directly to that
server.

RDC uses port 3389 so this port should be enabled on all co-resident or standalone servers in the
AACC solution installed.

For Linux-based Avaya Media Server installations, Secure Shell (SSH) port 22 should be enabled
to allow remote access to the server.

Wi00985181 Backing up and Restore of Certificate Manager store and relevant information

Avaya Inc Proprietary 50


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Certificate Manager is not linked to the main backup and restore of AACC proper and therefore has to be
backed up in addition to the main AACC backup and restore procedure.

Before the upgrade


1. Take note of content of the Certificate Store, number of certificates in the store and their values.
2. Stop all AACC services
3. Open Certificate Manager and go to the Store Maintenance tab
4. Select the location where you want the backup to be saved and then hit Backup button
5. In addition to this there is a manual step where the user will have to follow the next steps
6. Open a notepad or WordPad application.
7.
Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CCMS_SIP_Service\Parameters\
JVMOptions

An entry in there called “-Dcom.nortel.contactcenter.sgm.security.KeyStorePwd” , copy out the Value


data into a text file and store in
a safe area. This is the encrypted password to access Certificate Manager.

Upgrade your system.

After upgrade
There is one mandatory step and based on the result of this step the possibility of a several other steps
being required.

1. Open Certificate Manager, If access to the Certificate Store fails then this means that the original
password in the registry
2. entry has been overwritten with the default “__avaya” (that’s two underscores).
(a) Use this password (__avaya) and check its contents. If the contents are the same as before the
upgrade then no other action is required as the store has remained untouched during the
upgrade process. Successful access using this __avaya password will usually result in a
certificate store that has been upgraded and therefore original contents will be overwritten.
(b) If access is possible with the original password then again check the contents of the store to
confirm it is the original one and the upgrade has not overwritten it. No other action is required
if this is the case.

3. [OPTIONAL]
If the check on the Certificate Manager shows that the original certificates have been overwritten
by the upgrade then
performed the following steps
4. Stop all AACC services
8. Open Certificate Manager and go to the Store Maintenance tab
9. Browse to where the backup was saved to
10. Select the Restore button
11. Copy the saved password back into the “-Dcom.nortel.contactcenter.sgm.security.KeyStorePwd”
registry location

Reopen the Certificate Manager and confirm the contents have been restored to their pre-upgrade state.

wi01087600 Preservation of AACC Call Redirection Support Settings on


Downgrade & Upgrade
Settings for the AACC Call Redirection Support feature are stored within file:
<ContactCenterDrive>\Avaya\Contact Center\Manager Server\iccm\sgm\config\SGM.properties
This file can be directly modified by users to change various SGM settings.
On removal of Service Pack 11, this file is not retained (it is not removed but is replaced by a previous
version). Therefore, any new settings that have been introduced by the user are lost.
To assist in the preservation of new user data, a backup of the file is created. This backup can be
retrieved and reused after downgrading or upgrading from Service Pack 11.
On removal of Service Pack 11, the above file is backed up as follows:
 Back-up File Name:
AvayaAura_CCMS_6.3.211.0_SGM.properties.bkp
 Back-up File Location:
<ContactCenterDrive>:\Avaya\Contact Center\Manager Server\iccm\sgm\config
Downgrades:
If downgrading results in a loss of data, please follow the steps described:
1. Remove Service Pack 11
2. Install your chosen Service Pack
3. Retrieve SGM.properties file backup
4. Replace existing SGM.Properties with backup copy (rename backup copy)
5. Restart Avaya Aura® Contact Center

Upgrades:
In release 6.4 and later, AACC Call Redirection settings have been migrated from SGM.properties to
the CCMS database. These settings are now modifiable via:
CCMA->Configuration->Global Settings->Redirection Settings.
On upgrade to 6.4 please ensure that any previously modified SGM.properties for AACC Call
Redirection Support have their appropriate matching values updated via CCMA->Configuration-
>Global Settings
Please note that database settings take precedence over SGM.properties settings.

Call Redirection with AACC SIP Deployments

 Call Redirection in an Avaya Aura® Contact Center refers to the scenario where a
Contact Center agent transfers an inbound Contact Center call to an alternative location
which subsequently redirects the call back into the Avaya Aura® Contact Center.
 The alternative location can be one of:
– Expert (Local to CM or remote)
– VDN
– AAEP
 This redirection can take a number of forms:
– Coverage on Busy
– Coverage no Answer
– Coverage all calls
– Call Forward all calls
– Transfer
– Conference

Avaya Inc Proprietary 52


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

– Scripting (Vector / AAEP)

Call Redirection is not enabled by default with AACC 6.3 SP11.

If you wish to avail of this feature then you need to download the Application Note from
support.avaya.com and confirm that your Avaya Aura Unified Communications stack is updated
to the correct version (including patches). You should also note the limitations with this feature
as documented in the application note.

AACC SP 11 aligns with CM 6.3. A change was introduced in CM 6.3 that enables AACC to
support redirection from experts on a remote CM. Please refer to the Application Note for more
detailed information.

Redirection improvements will only apply to AACC SIP with Avaya Aura deployments. The
redirection improvements will not apply to AACC SIP CS1k deployments. For AACC SIP CS1k
deployments redirection remains an unsupported activity.

IMPORTANT NOTE: if you have already enabled redirection on the AACC due to an SP9,
SP10 upgrade – you will need to manually re-enable redirection after installation of SP11.
You will need to re-enable the setting on both the active and standby servers in a HA
environment. (Re-enabling simply means editing the configuration file and changing the
setting from false to true as outlined in the Redirection Application Note).

Note: With call redirection, an agent can perform a consult transfer to AAEP. However, there is
a limitation in a very specific scenario that if an agent were to initiate a consult transfer to AEP
and the agent were to select menu options which resulted in AEP sending the call back to AACC
and the agent does not complete the transfer before AEP attempts to send the call back to
AACC, there is an issue that the agent doesn’t get through to the Contact Center (on the consult
leg of the call)
However, the agent can toggle back to the customer leg of the call as the customer is still on
hold– so the customer leg is not dropped.

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

SIP specific issues


CTI behaviour for Transfer and Conference
CTI behaviour of Transfer and Conference in AACC SIP installations is not linked to any
particular AACC release but depends on CTI Switch used in the solution:
 CS 1000 or Avaya Aura® Application Enablement Services version 6.2 or greater:
o Consultation Transfer Call can only be completed using CTI as Transfer.
o Consultation Conference Call can only be completed using CTI as Conference.
 Avaya Aura® Application Enablement Services version 6.1 or earlier:
o Consultation Transfer Call can be completed using CTI as either Transfer or
Conference.
o Consultation Conference Call can be completed using CTI as either Conference or
Transfer.

Call Redirection with Microsoft Exchange VoiceMail


The AACC Call Redirection Application Notes stated incorrectly that Microsoft Exchange
VoiceMail is a supported feature of AACC 6.3 SIP installations. The following scenario resulted
in Contacts getting stuck in Agent Desktop after call for agent covers to Exchange VoiceMail:
 Agent 1 calls Agent 2 but receives a busy tone.
 Agent 1 leaves a Microsoft Exchange VoiceMail to Agent 2.
 Agent 2's AAAD GUI throws a notification message that there is a voicemail pending.
 Agent 2 attempts to dismiss this notification but is unable.

SIP HA Specific Issues

Pre Installation Instructions


HA Installation: Linux version of Avaya Media Server only supported on 32 bit Redhat
Enterprise Linux 5.x or 6.3+.
The Linux version of the Avaya Media Server is only supported on the 32 bit version of
Redhat Enterprise 5.x or 6.3 linux installed only with the linux English language pack.

HA Installation: Avaya G430 / G450 on same Subnet as Avaya Media Server HA Pair
If the G430 / G450 is on the same subnet as the Avaya Media Server HA Pair, then ARP
Spoofing protection needs to be disabled on the G4x0 to allow for correct operation in the event
of an Avaya Media Server Failover. In an Avaya Media Server HA Pair, when the current active
AMS fails, the backup AMS will send Gratuitous ARP messages indicating that its MAC address
should be used for the Managed IP address of the Avaya Media Server HA pair. The G4x0 is
normally configured to enable ARP Spoofing protection which will cause the G4x0 to ignore
these GARP messages causing one-way speech path problems when an Avaya Media Server
failover occurs. The ARP Spoof protection must be disabled on the G4x0 using the CLI
command:
“no ip arp inspection”

HA Installation: Avaya G650 Gateway MedPro boards cannot be on same subnet as Avaya
Media Server HA Pair
Unlike G4x0 gateways, G650 gateways do not allow for ARP Spoofing protection to be
turned off at all. Therefore, to avoid the one-way speech path issues indicated above in the event
of an AMS HA pair failover, the MedPro boards of any G650 gateways used to communicate
with AMS must be homed on a different subnet. This ensures these boards do not need to handle
the GARP messages issued by the AMS backup server during a failover.

The management IP address of the gateway itself is not likewise impacted, since there is
no media traffic with the AMS servers crossing that network interface. That is, the gateway’s
own address can be in any required subnet.

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Post Installation Instructions


Configuration Issues
Agents URIs need to be unique across all agents and media type. The domain for IM Presence
users should be different from the Voice domain e.g. Agent 1 should have a Voice URI of
AgentVoiceURI@voicedomain.com and the presence username should be
AgentIMURI@presencedomain.com.

Also an agent should not have the same prefix name if they are configured for Voice and
Presence. If they have the same name, then this can cause issues on AAAD where an agent wants
to make a make a call out of the Contact Center. So the following is not supported and will be
blocked in CCMA when creating or modifying an agent e.g. Agent1@voicedomain.com and
Agent1@presencedomain.com are not supported.

Customers migrating from a CS1K\OCS based install should check that Agents names are
unique. Otherwise errors may occur when modifying these agents.

G.729 Codec Support


In configurations where network bandwidth is limited, G.729 can be used as the Voice codec on
either the customer leg OR the agent leg of the call. G.729 is NOT supported on both legs of the
Contact Center call as this could result in voice quality issues.

Customer leg Audio codec preference is controlled by CM configuration (ip-codec-set). If G.729


is the first in the list, then the Customer leg preference is G.729. The AMS must have G.729 in
its Audio Codec list.
The CM ip-codec-set page is shown below:

Agent leg Audio codec preference is controlled by AMS configuration. If G.729 is required on
the agent leg then the G.729 codec should be first in the list in: EM->System Configuration-
>Media Processing->Audio Codecs
Note: G.729 should not be first on the list on both CM and AMS as this will result in G.729
being used in both customer and agent leg of call.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 56


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

G.729 MUST be in the AMS Audio Codec list is SIP Call Recording is being used as the ACR
only uses G.729. Note: As the ACR recording leg is not on the voice path between agent and
customer, it will have no impact on voice quality of this call.
AMS audio codec configuration is shown below:

Voice Codec Packet Size (ptime) limitations


Voice codecs MUST use a Packet Size (ptime) of 20ms. Larger Packet sizes are not supported.

Known CCT Limitations


It needs to be pointed out that the CCT Lite and Graphical APIs are not supported for SIP
deployments. This limitation only applies to custom developed CCT client applications and does
not impact AAAD in any way.

Known CCMS limitations


AACC supports limited multiplicity for routed IMs
If an agent is enabled with multiplicity then he cannot have IM contact type value greater than 1
in the multiplicity presentation class. What this means is that an agent can handle only one IM
call in multiplicity mode. This call can be presented while the agent is on a voice call. Attached
bitmap details where this IM contact type value is set.
This applies to both the IM providers (Microsoft Office Communications Server & Avaya
Presence Services) that AACC can be configured for.
This does not affect multiplicity support for other contact types. Also this does not affect support
for Peer to Peer IMs or the Routed IMs for non-multiplicity configured agents.

Avaya Media Server


AACC 6.3 includes Avaya Media Server 7.5. Upgrading an existing installation of AMS 7.0 to
7.5 requires full uninstallation of the existing version. Full procedures are documented in
NN44400-410 AACC Upgrade and Patch Guide. You should also take note of the items
discussed below when performing installations and upgrades of AMS 7.5 for AACC.

AACC 6.3 Service Pack 11 includes newer Avaya Media Server and Contact Center Services for
AMS (CCSA) installation packages than those supplied with all earlier service packs. If
performing upgrades from AACC 6.2 or earlier, ensure you use the installers for your applicable
operating system that are supplied in the Service Pack 11 bundle rather than that supplied with
the AACC 6.3 DVD or SP8/SP9 bundles. The procedures for upgrading from Service Pack 8, 9
or 10 to Service Pack 11 are provided below.

Note on Terminology
The Contact Center Services for AMS package that is installed on top of Avaya Media Server for
use with AACC was previously abbreviated to ‘CCSM’ (this is a historical reference to ‘MAS’ or
Media Application Server, which was renamed to Avaya Media Server).

The abbreviation ‘CCSA’ is being adopted generally in this document and other AACC user
documentation for version 6.3 and moving forward. The term ‘CCSM’ is still used in some
instances below, but only when referencing AACC 6.2 installations.

Installation Notes
Windows Firewall and AMS PVI Checker

 The latest version of the AACC firewall policy should be applied to Windows based systems
when installing AMS 7.5. This is most important for standalone Windows AMS servers
where port usage has changed from AMS 7.0 installations.

 Due to known issues with the AMS PVI Checker (see AMS Known Issues list below), the
Windows Firewall should be temporarily disabled when installing AMS 7.5 manually (i.e. as
part of applying Service Pack 11). Once AMS installation has completed, the firewall can be
safely re-enabled. This applies both to Single Server systems with AACC installed and also
to standalone Windows AMS servers. Steps for this are included in the procedures described
below.

 Also note that aside from the known issue reported below, attempting to install AMS whilst
the Windows firewall is enabled will cause the AMS installer to appear to freeze for several
minutes. This is on account of the PVI Checker also. Do not kill the installation process – it
will recover. When it does so, it will report failures as per the note above. If you disable the
Windows Firewall whilst the AMS PVI Checker screen is still displayed, you can then close
the screen and the installation should proceed correctly after a few moments.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x


AMS 7.5 introduces support for RHEL 6.x, though RHEL 5.x is also still supported. Customers,
especially those upgrading their existing AMS systems from RHEL 5.x, should note that the

Avaya Inc Proprietary 59


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

setup process requires some post-installation configuration steps on Red Hat prior to installing
AMS that were not previously necessary when using RHEL 5.x. This is due to the set of default
packages installed with the OS having changed for RHEL 6.x and AMS having some package
dependencies that are no longer in the default package set.

Additional installation steps to cover this are documented in NN44400-311 AACC installation
Guide and also NN44400-410 AACC Upgrade and Patch Guide. The following sequence of
commands (which should be executed as the root user) summarises the steps needed to apply the
correct packages via the ‘yum’ package manager. Ensure the RHEL 6.x DVD is inserted into
your system’s DVD drive before completing this procedure:

1. Insert the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) DVD in the server DVD drive.

2. Change to the root user by running the following command:


su —

3. Mount the RHEL DVD by running the following commands:


mkdir mnt/cdrom
mount -t auto /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

4. Set up the YUM repository by copying the yum .repo file from the RHEL DVD,
using the following command:
cp /mnt/cdrom/media.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/

5. Set up the YUM repository .repo file permissions using the following command:
chmod +rw /etc/yum.repos.d/media.repo

6. Configure YUM to point to the mounted DVD image. For example, enter:
echo -e "baseurl=file:///mnt/cdrom\nenabled=1" >>
/etc/yum.repos.d/media.repo

7. Use the YUM command to install all the packages required by Avaya Media
Server:
yum install libX11.i686
yum install libXdmcp.i686
yum install net-snmp-utils

Also note that the use of desktop GUIs such as Gnome or KDE is not supported on RHEL
systems operating Avaya Media Server.

ccsaupgrade vs. masupgrade

Certain MAS/AMS upgrade procedures in the past have involved the use of the masupgrade
command line utility to restore configuration and application content backups from the earlier
MAS/AMS version to the newer version. This step was performed after installation of the
updated AMS and CCSM versions was completed.

When upgrading to AMS 7.5, a similar step is necessary to upgrade and restore the backups taken
from the AMS 7.0 system. However, due to certain database content in these backups for CCSM

Avaya Inc Proprietary 60


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

that is no longer applicable to AACC 6.3, running the masupgrade tool on these backups will
result in the CCSA applications (particularly Agent Greeting) being inoperable. Don’t panic.

To address this, CCSA now includes a new command line utility of its own, named
‘ccsaupgrade’. This should now be used instead of the existing masupgrade tool. (This is also
reflected in NN44400-410 AACC Upgrade and Patch Guide.)

This utility accepts zero, one or two backup files as command line arguments and will perform
the upgrade of these as per the masupgrade utility and then subsequently update the database to
remove the redundant and incompatible configuration data for CCSA. If you supply no command
line arguments, it will simply perform the last step. That is to say if you previously ran
masupgrade on your backups before reading this note, you can run ccsaupgrade with no
arguments to correct the AMS database accordingly. The tool can be run multiple times without
ill effect.

New Single Server installations of AACC 6.3 SP11

If performing a new Single Server (AACC + AMS on a single Windows instance) installation of
AACC 6.3 SP11 by using the AACC 6.3 DVD in conjunction with the SP11 release bundle for
install time patching, you must still manually upgrade the version of CCSA after completing the
installation wizard. This is because the AACC installation wizard does not use the CCSA version
supplied in release bundles in preference to that supplied on the DVD as part of the install time
patching process.

To perform this upgrade, simply follow the procedure in the section below.

Upgrading AMS on Windows servers from AACC 6.3 SP10 to SP11

The versions of AMS and CCSA used by SP11 have all changed from those provided with SP10.
SP10 and SP11 both use the same version of Tomcat. Follow this procedure to upgrade these on
your existing SP11 system.

1) If this is an AMS primary node, perform a backup of ‘System Configuration’ and


‘Application Content’ via the Tools -> Backup and Restore -> Backup Tasks page in
AMS Element Manager.
Note: The default location for AMS backups is
%MASHOME%\platdata\EAM\Backups.
2) If this is a Single Server (AACC+AMS) environment, shutdown AACC via the System
Control and Monitor Utility
3) Uninstall Contact Center Services for AMS via the Windows Control Panel
4) Locate the Install Software\AMS\Windows folder on the SP11 Release Bundle, launch
the Avaya Media Server installer and proceed through the installation wizard:
InstallerMAS.exe
5) Launch the Contact Center Services for AMS installer and proceed through the
installation wizard:
ContactCenterServicesForAMS.msi
6) Apply all available AMS and CCSA QFE patches.
a. Copy all available patch ZIP files to the %MASHOME%\QFE folder

Avaya Inc Proprietary 61


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

b. Run the following command:


maspatch apply all
7) Reboot the server

Upgrading AMS on Windows servers from AACC 6.3 SP8/SP9 to SP11

The versions of AMS, Tomcat and CCSA used by SP11 have all changed from those provided
with SP8 and SP9. Follow this procedure to upgrade these on your existing SP8 or SP9 system.

1) If this is an AMS primary node, perform a backup of ‘System Configuration’ and


‘Application Content’ via the Tools -> Backup and Restore -> Backup Tasks page in
AMS Element Manager.
Note: The default location for AMS backups is
%MASHOME%\platdata\EAM\Backups.
2) If this is a Single Server (AACC+AMS) environment, shutdown AACC via the System
Control and Monitor Utility
3) Uninstall Contact Center Services for AMS via the Windows Control Panel
4) If this is a standalone AMS server, uninstall Contact Center Tomcat Instance via the
Windows Control Panel. (For a Single Server system, this step is not necessary, since
Tomcat is upgraded via the Third Party Software Upgrade utility supplied with the AACC
6.3 SP10 and SP11 Release Bundles.)
5) Locate the Install Software\AMS\Windows folder on the SP11 Release Bundle, launch
the Avaya Media Server installer and proceed through the installation wizard:
InstallerMAS.exe
6) If this is a standalone AMS server, install the Contact Center Tomcat Instance:
a. Locate the 32-bit Tomcat folder on the AACC 6.3 SP11 Release Bundle:
<drive>:\ThirdParty\ThirdPartySoftware\TomcatAMS\Tomcat6.0.35
b. Launch the Tomcat installer: ContactCenterTomcatInstall.msi
7) Return to the Install Software\AMS\Windows folder, launch the Contact Center
Services for AMS installer and proceed through the installation wizard:
ContactCenterServicesForAMS.msi
8) Apply all available AMS and CCSA QFE patches.
a. Copy all available patch ZIP files to the %MASHOME%\QFE folder
b. Run the following command:
maspatch apply all
9) Reboot the server

Upgrading AMS on Windows servers from AACC 6.2 to 6.3 SP11

Upgrading an existing AMS installation from AACC 6.2 to AACC 6.3 implies replacing AMS
7.0 with AMS 7.5. The procedure below accomplishes this task and accounts for both standalone
AMS installations and Single Server (AACC + AMS on a single Windows instance) installations.

Note that this upgrade process is not documented in the AACC 6.3 user documentation, but
addressed here only.

Note on standalone AMS installations

Avaya Inc Proprietary 62


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Avaya no longer supports standalone deployments of Avaya Media Server on Windows for new
AACC customers from version 6.3 onwards. As such, there is no longer an option available on
the AACC 6.3 DVD to install only Avaya Media Server.

For existing customers of AACC 6.2 or earlier using standalone AMS deployments on Windows,
these can be upgraded to AMS 7.5 for use with AACC 6.3 using the procedure below and will be
supported.

Upgrade Procedure
Note that for Single Server environments, this task should be performed after applying SP11 to
AACC itself. It cannot be performed in parallel with that task on a Single Server environment.

Where referenced below, the AMS, Tomcat and CCSA installation packages MUST be taken
from the AACC 6.3 SP11 Release Bundle and not the AACC 6.3 DVD.

1) If this is a standalone AMS environment and you are upgrading a primary server, ensure you
retain a copy of your current AMS license keys (you do not need to do so for secondary or
standard servers in a multi-node AMS cluster). If you do not have the original license file
containing these to hand, you can copy the current license key content from the License Keys
field on the Licensing  General Settings page in Element Manager into a text file and save
this in a secure location.
2) Apply the latest AACC Windows Firewall Policy
a) Launch the firewall policy tool – Start -> Administrative Tools -> Windows Firewall
Policy with Advanced Security
b) Click ‘Import Policy…’, answer Yes when prompted, and locate the AACC Firewall
Policy file on the AACC 6.3 DVD or SP11 Release Bundle:
<drive>:\AACCFirewallPolicy\AACC Firewall Policy (Ver 1.17).wfw
Note: In order to enable Rollback of this policy it is recommended that you export your
existing Firewall setting from the “Windows Firewall with Advanced Security”
application before you apply this AACC Firewall Policy. If you subsequently need to roll
back the policy, you can import your saved policy file and this will remove the new
AACC policy settings.
3) Disable the Windows Firewall (see notes on this in the firewall section above)
4) If you have deployed any locale specific media files to the AMS filesystem (as opposed to the
Content Store), take a backup of these files. These will have been deployed in the relevant
locale sub-folders of %MASHOME%\platdata\Announcements\contactcenter\default
5) If this is an AMS primary node, perform a backup of ‘System Configuration’ and
‘Application Content’ via the Tools -> Backup and Restore -> Backup Tasks page in AMS
Element Manager. Do not include ‘Network Data’ in your backup.
Note: The default location for AMS backups is %MASHOME%\platdata\EAM\Backups.
When uninstalling the existing AMS version, this folder will be left intact if any backups are
present.
6) If this is a Single Server (AACC+AMS) environment, shutdown AACC via the System
Control and Monitor Utility
7) Uninstall AMS:
a) If the AACC system was NOT previously upgraded from AACC 6.0 or 6.1, uninstall
AMS using the AACC Uninstall tool (Start -> All Programs -> Avaya -> Contact
Center -> Uninstall Contact Center).
b) Otherwise, uninstall AMS via the Windows Control Panel.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 63


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

i) If this is a Single Server co-resident installation with AACC, uninstall


CCEXPRESS_ICPCONFIG
ii) Uninstall Contact Center Services for AMS
iii) Uninstall Avaya Media Server Application Platform. When prompted whether to
Preserve or Remove system data, select the Remove option.
8) Do not reboot if prompted to do so after uninstalling AMS. (If you do so and this is a Single
Server environment, remember to shutdown AACC again after rebooting.)
9) Locate the Install Software\AMS\Windows folder on the SP11 Release Bundle and launch
the Avaya Media Server installer:
InstallerMAS.exe
10) Proceed through the installation wizard
a) When prompted for the installation path, the recommended path to use is
“D:\Avaya\MAS”.
(This assumes that AACC has been installed at its default location of “D:\Avaya”.)
b) Ensure that the ‘Install Element Manager’ option is selected
11) Do not reboot when prompted to do so after installing AMS. (If you do so and this is a Single
Server environment, some AACC or AMS services will fail to start. However, this will be
resolved after rebooting at step 17 below.)
12) If this is a standalone AMS environment, install the Contact Center Tomcat Instance:
a) Locate the Tomcat folder on the AACC 6.3 SP11 Release Bundle:
<drive>:\ThirdParty\ThirdPartySoftware\TomcatAMS\Tomcat6.0.35
b) Launch the Tomcat installer: ContactCenterTomcatInstall.msi
13) Locate the AMS Windows folder on the SP11 Release Bundle and launch the Contact Center
Services for AMS installer:
<drive>:\Install Software\AMS\Windows\ContactCenterServicesForAMS.msi
14) Proceed through the installation wizard
15) Apply all available AMS and CCSA QFE patches. (Patches available at time of writing this
are identified in section Additional Avaya Media Server Updates
a) Unzip the packages which contain QFE ZIP files for both Linux and Windows.
b) Copy all available Windows QFE patch ZIP files to the %MASHOME%\QFE folder
c) Run the following command:
maspatch apply all
16) Reboot the server
17) If this is an AMS primary node, upgrade and restore the backups taken in step 5 using the
ccsaupgrade command-line tool:
ccsaupgrade <system-config-backup > <app-data-backup>
18) Re-enable the Windows Firewall
19) Restore the locale specific media files that were backed up in Step 4 (if any).
20) If this is a standalone AMS environment, re-apply your AMS license via the Licensing 
General Settings page in Element Manager

Notes on this procedure:

A. At step 7 above, if the system was originally installed with AACC 6.2 (and not upgraded
from 6.0 or 6.1), this implies that the current Avaya MS major version (i.e. 7.0) on the
Windows server was installed via the AACC 6.2 setup wizard on the DVD (you may have
upgraded the AMS loads for SP5 or SP6 in the meantime, but this is not significant as these
still use the same major version). In this situation, if you attempt to use the Windows
Control Panel to uninstall AMS, you will most likely encounter problems. Depending upon

Avaya Inc Proprietary 64


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

the particular AACC 6.2 Service Pack currently installed, you either will not be able to do so
properly, or doing so will result in the AMS database being left on the system and
consequently blocking the installation of newer AMS releases (this is a side-effect of the
AACC DVD controller performing a silent installation of AMS, as opposed to a bug of the
AMS uninstallation tool). If you do attempt this though (because you did not read these
instructions first) and find yourself in the latter situation, re-run the AMS installation file
from your current service pack release bundle (eg. SP5, SP6 or SP7 as appropriate) to
recover the system and then uninstall AMS again via the ‘Uninstall Contact Center’ utility.)

B. At step 9, if this is a Single Server environment and AACC was not already shutdown (per
step 6), this will cause the AMS PVI Checker to flag failure conditions due to conflicting
port utilisation between AACC and AMS.
Installation of CCSA re-configures AMS to avoid any port conflicts, and a final reboot of
the server (at step 16) then allows all services to start correctly.

C. At step 17, it actually does not matter which order you supply the backup archive files to the
ccsaupgrade utility. However, for the record, when creating backups via Element Manager,
the backups will be numbered from 0 upwards per the items included in the backup. For
example:
System Configuration: PreUpgrade0_PALAB53__2012_09_17_0_16_53.zip
Application Content: PreUpgrade1_PALAB53__2012_09_17_0_17_2.zip
where ‘PreUpgrade’ is the name of the backup task created via Element Manager, and
‘PALAB53’ is the hostname.

Upgrading AMS on Windows servers from AACC 6.0 or 6.1

There is no direct upgrade path from the MAS version deployed with AACC 6.0 or 6.1 (MAS
6.4) to AMS 7.5. You must first upgrade to AMS 7.0 before upgrading to AMS 7.5. Refer to
AACC 6.2 SP6 or SP7 release notes for instructions on this process.

Upgrading AMS on Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers from AACC 6.3 SP8/SP9/SP10 to
SP11

The versions of AMS and CCSA used by SP11 have all changed from those provided with SP8,
SP9 and SP10. Follow this procedure to upgrade these on your existing SP8, SP9 or SP 10
system.

1) Locate the Install Software/AMS/Linux folder on the SP11 Release Bundle and copy the
files located there to a temporary location on your Linux server
2) Log onto the Linux server as the root user
3) Launch the AMS installation package from the command line and proceed through the
installation wizard: MediaServer_7.5.0.1140_2013.06.13.bin
4) Launch the Contact Center Services for AMS installation package from the command line:
ContactCenterServicesForAMS_6.3.0.115
5) Apply all available AMS and CCSA QFE patches. (Patches available at time of writing this
are identified in section Additional Avaya Media Server Updates
a. Unzip the packages which contain QFE ZIP files for both Linux and Windows.
b. Copy all available Linux QFE patch ZIP files to the $MASHOME/qfe folder
c. Run the following command:

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

If upgrading an AMS HA pair, perform this task on the backup server, then restart AMS (via the
Element Status page in Element Manager) on the primary server to force a switchover before
repeating the upgrade steps on the primary server. You can then restart AMS on the backup
server to switch back to the primary server again.

Upgrading AMS on Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers from AACC 6.2 to 6.3 SP11

Procedures for this are described in NN44400-410 AACC Upgrade and Patch Guide.

As above, note that you should use the CCSA installation package supplied with the SP11 release
bundle as opposed to that supplied with the AACC 6.3 DVD.

Changes to the way CCTOMCATSRV is handled during startup/shutdown.


AACC 6.2 SP5 RU03, introduced changes to the way CCTOMCATSRV is handled during start-
up/shutdown. The changes support the WebLM requirement to have CCTOMCATSRV running when
CCT is shutdown.

In a SIP system with SMMC managing the start-up/shutdown:


 SCMU does not display CCTOMCATSRV in the service list for LM and CCT.
 SMMC starts CCTOMCATSRV when starting LM or CCT.
 SMMC will never stop CCTOMCATSRV.
 SCMU stops CCTOMCATSRV when patching LM and CCT.

In a non-SIP system with SCMU managing the start-up/shutdown:


 SCMU displays CCTOMCATSRV in the service list for LM and CCT.
 SCMU starts CCTOMCATSRV when starting LM and CCT.
 SCMU will not stop CCTOMCATSRV except in the case of LM and CCT patching.

During patching of CCT or LM CCTOMCATSRV is shutdown. To start CCTOMCATSRV, SCMU


must be invoked to start either CCT or LM.

Contact Center Manager Administration

Pre Installation Instructions


Ensure that you have accurately completed the Section ‘Installing operating system components
for Contact Center Manager Administration’ from the Avaya Aura® Contact Center Installation
document NN44400-311. Failure to correctly install the required Operating System roles before
installing the Contact Center Software will result in a failed installation.

The Sybase Open Client is only required on the CCMA server if the server is going to be used to
manage a pre 7.0 NES CCMS or NCC server.

Due to the inclusion of Localisation content in AACC 6.3 SP8, the install time is longer for this
and subsequent Service Packs than it was for earlier Service Packs.

Crystal Reports Server Embedded 2008


If performing a fresh install of AACC 6.3, and the server had a previous release of AACC
installed, Crystal Reports Server 2008 must be removed.
1. Stop CCMA using SCMU
2. From Control Panel, select “Uninstall a program”
3. Select “Crystal Reports Server Embedded 2008” and remove

ActiveX Controls.msi file update


Use the AACC 6.3 SU11 ActiveXControls.msi to distribute the CCMA ActiveX Controls to
CCMA Client machines where the local user does not have permission to download ActiveX
controls within Internet Explorer.

You only need to use this file if your Contact Center security policy does not allow all users to
log on to the client PCs with administrator privileges. In this scenario, the automatic download
process for the Contact Center Manager Administration controls will not function.

For those users who have a central management tool in their network, such as a Systems
Management Server (SMS), Avaya bundled the required controls into a single file called ActiveX
Controls.msi. The SMS server can be used to run this file and silently install all the required
controls on all the SMS clients, regardless of the level of user who logs on to the PC.

Skillset Naming
AACC uses a naming convention to identify the contact type of skillsets. The convention consists
of a two letter prefix followed by an underscore e.g. “EM_” for email skillsets. Before upgrading
from earlier releases of NES or AACC it is important to check that skillset names for voice
skillsets on the system will not conflict with this convention as they may be displayed incorrectly
after the upgrade. The reserved prefixes are documented in Commissioning guide.

Voice skillsets starting with these reserved prefixes should be renamed prior to upgrading to
AACC.

Changes to the way CCTOMCATSRV is handled during startup/shutdown.


AACC 6.2 SP5 introduced changes to the way CCTOMCATSRV is handled during start-up/shutdown.
The changes support the WebLM requirement to have CCTOMCATSRV running when CCT is
shutdown.

In a SIP system with SMMC managing the start-up/shutdown:


 SCMU does not display CCTOMCATSRV in the service list for LM and CCT.
 SMMC starts CCTOMCATSRV when starting LM or CCT.
 SMMC will never stop CCTOMCATSRV.
 SCMU stops CCTOMCATSRV when patching LM and CCT.

In a non-SIP system with SCMU managing the start-up/shutdown:


 SCMU displays CCTOMCATSRV in the service list for LM and CCT.
 SCMU starts CCTOMCATSRV when starting LM and CCT.
 SCMU will not stop CCTOMCATSRV except in the case of LM and CCT patching.

During patching of CCT or LM CCTOMCATSRV is shutdown. To start CCTOMCATSRV, SCMU


must be invoked to start either CCT or LM.

Custom changes to CCT Server “RestrictedSessionAppNames” will not be


maintained
Any custom changes to the “RestrictedSessionAppNames” section of the
“Nortel.CCT.Service.exe.config” file will not be maintained following an AACC 6.3upgrade.

To maintain any custom changes please back-up these changes prior to uninstalling the software and
manually re-add the custom changes following the Service Pack 6 installation

The “RestrictedSessionAppNames” features limits the maximum number of resources that can be
allocated to a particular CCT client application regardless of the configuration settings within CCT.

The default HTTP port (8081) of the Tomcat server hosting CCT WebAdmin can conflict with
third party applications. In the case of such conflicts follow these steps to modify the HTTP
port used by Tomcat:
- Open the server.xml Tomcat config file located at: D:\Avaya\Contact Center\apache-
tomcat\conf\server.xml
- Locate the ‘non-SSL HTTP\1.1 Connector’ section which defines the connection on
port 8081:

<!-- A "Connector" represents an endpoint by which requests are received and responses are returned.

CCT is not operational after restart of CCMS SIP service

Avaya Inc Proprietary 75


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

A restart of the CCMS SIP service can cause the CCT connection to the CMF Web Service to
become unresponsive.

Workaround
This can happen when CCT has not detected that the CMF has restarted. The CMF WS link
down detection in CCT is configurable to allow this failure threshold to be modified. To change
the link failure threshold modify the following values in Nortel.CCT.Service.exe.config
([AACCInstallDrive]:\Avaya\Contact Center\CCT):

<!--

The registry key “MaxDNRegistrationRequests” controls the number of DN Registration
requests sent out by CCT at a time. If the hardware does not meet the minimum requirement,
please reduce this value by a half.

Please note: Changing this value will increase the CCT start-up time considerably, the default

x64 JRE version Now required for CCMM


If you are upgrading a system that does not have the x64 JRE version you must install it prior
to the installation of the CCMMT Service Pack.

To perform the install of jre1.6.0_21_x64 on CCT, first stop CCMM using SCMU.

With CCMM stopped, install jre1.6.0_21_x64 from the ThirdParty folder of the Service Pack
bundle

Note: AAAD web page can state that “This machine has the correct version of the .NET
Framework 3.5 installed.” When it is not installed as on an Agent Desktop PC if the Microsoft
.NET 3.5 framework is installed and then uninstalled from the PC the Microsoft Internet Explorer
browser sometimes does not pick up on the uninstall and sends the incorrect information to the
CCMM Server. This does not affect install or launch functionality of the web page.

Once an SP/DP is installed on the server with a new version of the AAAD, the next time an
Agent launches the AAAD the new software is pushed out to them i.e. automatically installed on
their PC. If you subsequently uninstall the SP/DP on the CCMM/CCT server and revert back to
the earlier version of software, you must uninstall the later version from the client PCs manually.
This is because the AAAD will not run against a CCMM/CCT server that where an earlier
version is installed.

Database Backup failure
If the backup of the CCMM database fails on the existing CCMM server this could be due to
Mail attachments with path/filenames exceeding 255 characters. This is due to a limitation of
NTFS. The following error will be reported in logs when attempting a backup.
ERROR #5001: xcopy - Initialization error (not enough memory or disk space,
invalid drive, or syntax error)
This error does not indicate a failure of the database backup rather a failure to backup the
attachment folders and can be worked around by copying the attachment files directly out of the
subfolder to the location you require the files stored.

AAAD Minimum Version check


Avaya Aura Agent Desktop (AAAD) implements a minimum version requirement which ensures
that the latest version is automatically downloaded onto Agent PCs, via ClickOnce deployment,
the next time it is launched after CCMM/CCT with a new version of the AAAD is upgraded.

NB: If a site rolls back to an earlier version of CCMM (such as removing a DP, for example),
this feature will require Agents to manually remove Avaya Aura Agent Desktop (AAAD) from
their PCs using the Windows Control Panel "Add and Remove Programs" (XP) or "Programs and
Features" (Vista) tool.

RGN patching
On an RGN configuration the Secondary CCMM has a dependency on the Campus Primary LM
being up.
After the patch install, the CCMM services may not come up and may become disabled. If this
happens, make sure that the license manager is started and then the CCMM services will recover.

Configuration Issues
AAAD HA SSL Environment
In a HA environment where SSL is configured, the CCMM backup server should be
configured EXACTLY matching the value for the “Issued To:” from your CCMM cert. This
step should be performed using the CCMM admin tool. After making this change, the
administrator should check the CCADAppSettings.XML <CCMMBackupServer> tag contains
the correct value.

Additional AAAD User Settings in CCMM Admin tool


The following settings have been added to the CCMM admin tool:
Clear Previous Phone Number, defaults to False, which indicates if the phone number is
cleared from the initiate call text box on AAAD when a contact is dropped,
Clear Previous Email Address, defaults to False, which indicates if the email address is cleared
from the initiate email address text box on AAAD when a contact is dropped,
Maximum Number of Agent Initiated Emails, defaults to 5, indicates how many concurrent
initiated emails can be present on AAAD.

AAAD embedded Softphone in “My Computer” mode Guidelines


When the embedded phone in AAAD is operational in my-computer mode ( in Elite adjunct
mode of operation or AAAD operating in SIP on Aura platform mode), the following

Avaya Inc Proprietary 80


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

guidelines apply:
1) On a certain machine with multiple core/processor, AAAD may exhibit heavy jitter while
playing the voice of other end. This may happen due to a known issue on certain machines
where the hardware abstraction layer is not able to provide correct value for the high
performance counters. This can be resolved by using the steps mentioned in the KB at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/895980
Note: This is windows wide setting and one should undo the change if it does not resolve
the problem.
2) Intermittent one-way talk path has been observed on the Windows 7 machine where the
AAAD user could not hear the remote party. In such scenario, it is mandatory to have the
Service Pack1 of Windows 7 to be installed due to a known issue on Windows 7.

AAAD operation in Citrix environment


When AAAD is operating in a Citrix environment, CCAD.exe should be excluded from the
Memory Optimization Management Program. Major stability issues for AAAD in a Citrix
Environment have been seen to stop happening when this step is performed.

Note 3: If Security Framework is enabled for CCMA ACCCM cannot be used to configure
AACC Agents or Skillsets. To use ACCCM, Security Framework must be disabled for CCMA.

Pre Installation Instructions


Warning: If upgrading from AACC 6.0 or AACC 6.1 you must have the latest Security
Framework patch DP_SFW_6.1.203.0 installed before you start that upgrade.

Verify that the security framework services are running prior to commencing an upgrade. If the
JBoss service is not running the backup will fail and all security framework data will be
overwritten at the end of the install.

Upgrading from AACC 6.0 or AACC 6.1

To upgrade security framework run setup.exe from the \Install Software\Security Framework\
folder from the patch bundle. DO NOT attempt to install the security framework by running the
ContactCenterSecurityFramework.msi as this will overwrite the configured data.
Warning: do not run setup.exe if Security Framework with AACC 6.3 is installed.

Before commencing a security framework upgrade,


1. Take a backup using the “Security Framework Backup & Restore” utility rather
than the CCMA backup and restore tool.
2. Make sure that you have latest Contact Center Common Components (CCCC)
line-up installed first.

Feature Specific: CCT Open Interfaces Web Services


Constraints on Agent Count and Contact Rate per Hour
The CCT SOA Open Interface SDK provides a mechanism for CTI using SOAP/XML based
Web Services.

There are differences in the underlying architecture between the CCT OI and the alternative
AACC .Net CTI SDK which lead to limits on:

1. The supported number of concurrent logged in agents


2. The contact-rate (measured in contacts per hour) that the CCT OI SDK can support.

The limits are given below for (i) SIP-based and (ii) CS1K-based AACC deployments.

SIP-Based
 Maximum count of logged in Agents: 1000
 Maximum contact rate: 10,000 contacts per hour

CS1K-Based
 Maximum count of logged in Agents: 1500
 Maximum contact rate: 15,000 contacts per hour

Where a CTI application interacting with the AACC is being developed with requirements that
exceed either, (1) the supported agent count or (2) the contact rate, then the CCT OI SDK is not a
suitable choice.

This is also true if the requirements come within a minimum of 20% of these limits and the CTI
application is expected to scale up to greater numbers in the near future.

In either of the cases above, it is recommended that the CTI application should be designed to use
the CCT.Net SDK which supports the full AACC capacity for agents and contact rate per hour.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 88


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Feature Specific: High Availability


In the Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.2 release, Avaya has augmented the existing HA features
of the Avaya Aura® Contact Center product. A new “Mission Critical” HA feature, focused on
the key strategic platform of Avaya Aura Session Manager 6.1 with the Avaya Communication
Manager 6.0.1 switch, is introduced. Full details on the existing HA features of Avaya Aura®
Contact Center, and full details of the newly introduced Mission Critical HA feature, can be
found in the Fundamentals Guide, the Commissioning Guide, and the Planning & Engineering
Guide.

Network Requirements between Active and Standby Servers


The round trip delay between the Active and Standby servers must be less than 80ms, with less
than 0.5% packet loss on the network. The bandwidth overhead required for replication is low
and will be quantified in an update to the Customer Documentation.

Choosing Managed IP addresses


For both AML HA (Campus HA) and Mission Critical HA (Campus HA) the Managed IP must
be in the same network subnet IP address range as Active and Standby IP Addresses. It can be
lower or higher than the physical IP Addresses of Active and Standby servers.

Example 1:
Active: 10.0.0.20
Standby: 10.0.0.30
Managed: 10.0.0.10

Example 2:
Active: 10.0.0.20
Standby: 10.0.0.30
Managed: 10.0.0.50

Pre-Installation Instructions
Full instructions on the setup of AD-LDS replication at the install time of CCMA is included in
the Commissioning guide. However, users should also be aware that prior to setting up AD-LDS
replication, both the active and standby AACC servers should be joined to the Windows domain.

Installation Instructions
When using the new Mission Critical HA feature, and in order for the Avaya Aura Agent
Desktop application to be able to continue to exercise call control over the Communication
Manager telset endpoints following either an AACC switchover or an AES switchover, the latest
GA patch lineup of AES 6.1.1 is required. This was released by AES in June 2011.

The version of Session Manager used should be at least SM 6.1 SP4. This is because the SM 6.1
SP4 baseline, and associated changes in System Manager, contains changes that enable the SM to
react correctly to an AACC switchover. Within System Manager, under Routing -> Entity Links,
the Connection Policy selected for the SM’s link to the AACC HA pair should be “Trusted HA”.
If an earlier version of SM is used, then following an AACC switchover, it will take SM
approximately 60 seconds to clean up its half-open TCP sockets and begin using the new active
AACC. An alternative to upgrading the SM is to disable the firewall on AACC, which may be
acceptable for certain limited deployments.

NCC Re-Sync
This note applies to customers using the “mission critical” campus HA feature at the same time
as the networking feature. For example, a number of Contact Center sites, each with “mission
critical” campus HA, and participating in a networking environment configured by the NCC. In
such a scenario, the NCC automatically re-syncs with the newly active AACC following a
campus HA switchover at one of the sites. Please note if there are several AAACs on the NCC, it
can take up to 30 mins for the automatic re-sync to complete.

Outage of Avaya Aura Session Manager


The Session Manager (SM) uses “record-route” and from a SIP protocol perspective acts as a
stateful proxy for all incoming and outgoing sessions with AACC. The second SM (SM-2) is
available for service continuity, but it does not maintain real time call state information with the
primary SM. This means that, following loss of the primary SM, the signaling path for all
existing SIP Sessions to/from AACC is broken. This should not have an immediate impact on
calls due to the fact that media streaming continues between AMS and the agent/customer User
Agents (UAs).

Problems arise however when further signaling is attempted for the calls that were in progress at
the time of the SM outage. For example, a BYE (disconnect) sent by either customer or agent
will not be propagated because there is no knowledge of this SIP dialog in SM-2. The agent and
customer will have to separately disconnect to clear their sessions. Furthermore, any Re-
INVITEs associated with existing sessions cannot be processed by SM-2 because it has no
knowledge of the setup of these sessions, and, in accordance with RFC 3261 section 14.1, this
will cause the session to be terminated. An example of when Re-INVITEs are used is to modify
the media/SDP when participants are put on hold, or if RFC 4028 is in use.

In SM 6.2, a Call Preservation feature has been introduced. This allows SM peer SIP elements
(for example M3K gateway, CM, VP/ACC) to send back responses and in-dialog requests to an
alternate SM when the primary SM fails in middle of a dialog. AACC6.3 has no corresponding
feature to take advantage of this functionality.

HA Interoperation & Avaya Contact Recording (ACR)


The ACR application uses polling to ensure that the AACC from which it is receiving events is in
operational state. The rate of polling is set in an ACR property file setting called
"cct.pollinterval" with a default setting of 30 sec. The ACR performs a new login to AACC/CCT
if a poll fails. Due to the rapid nature of the switchover of an AACC Mission Critical HA pair, it
is possible for an AACC switchover to complete without the ACR being aware. Using a lower
ACR poll interval reduces the likelihood of an issue being seen.

If the ACR is unaware that an AACC switchover has occurred, the ACR does not re-establish its
listeners and web services session after the AACC switchover, meaning that ACR may cease to
record calls. To resolve this problem, restart the ACR application, which takes approximately 10-

Avaya Inc Proprietary 90


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

15 seconds. Go to the Windows Service Control Manager, select the "Avaya Contact Recorder"
service and select "Restart". Call recording should recommence immediately.

The Mission Critical HA feature is designed to maintain calls that are in progress at the time of
an outage of the active AACC server. Once the agent and customer are speaking, such stable
calls are maintained following an AACC outage, and the call can be ended normally when the
conversation is complete.

There is a short timeframe when a call is ringing at the agent position, before the call is stable,
which is an ‘edge case’ requiring special handling in AACC. Because this is not a stable call, the
standby does not have the necessary information to effect a normal answer following a
switchover. If an AACC switchover occurs while a call is alerting on AAAD, then after the
switchover the customer remains in the treatment (e.g. ringing). The agent will answer AAAD
and hear silence. When the agent disconnects the customer call is taken out of treatment,
presented to the agent, and can be answered normally.

This scenario only applies for calls that happen to be in the alerting/ringing state at the time of an
active AACC outage. The vast majority of calls will not be in this state, because they will be
either connected to an agent, or in-queue (in-treatment), and the above does not apply.

CCMA AD-LDS configuration issues / Trouble shooting


Verify that AD-LDS replication is operational

The following outline steps to verify that CCMA replication is functioning as expected:

Ensure both servers, primary and secondary are configured and installed as detailed in the Avaya
installation guides.
Login to the Primary CCMA server as the default “webadmin” account.
Choose “Access & Partition Management” from the main Launchpad
Choose “Add”, “New Access”, specify a name and save details.

Note: This information will now be saved in the local AD-LDS instance and also replicated to the
Secondary AD-LDS instance.

Login to the secondary CCMA server as the default “webadmin” account.


Choose “Access & Partition Management” from the Launchpad and click on Access Classes.
A list of access classes should appear on the left hand side tree menu. The access class created on
the primary CCMA should be listed.

Repeat this test by creating a new access class on the standby server and check that it is
replicated to the primary CCMA.

CCMA AD-LDS replication issues – Delays between replication servers OR


replication occurring in one direction only.

If delays occur between replication servers, the following errors may be logged to the AD-LDS
instance event viewer and also displayed when running the following diagnostic test on a
replicating CCMA server.
Diagnostic Test Example: (Note this should be done on primary and secondary servers)

this instance by setting msDS-DisableForInstances attribute on the SCP publication configuration

Note:
It will be necessary to restart the SymposiumWC in order to make this change. During this time
CCMA will be unavailable.

The password field can be left blank when re-setting to Network Service account.

Configuration Issues
For customers using the Disaster Recovery site, it is recommended that after a period of
operation of the RGN (Remote Geographic Node) that a backup and restore be used as part of
bringing the campus HA pair on the primary site back online. On a campus HA pair, following a
switchover a backup and restore is required before bringing the originally active back online.

Feature Specific: E164 support


If the E164 dialing plan is configured to allow customer to dial a 15 digits CDN number (for
example CDN number is 9123459 but configured in 15 digits format 353123459123459 by
prefixing 35312345) then the CDN number in CCMA->Configuration->CDNs (Route Points)
and in Orchestration Designer Script also should be configured with the same 15 digits format,

Otherwise the CDN call is treated as DN call when agent receives the CDN call from customer
who dials 15 digits E164 format.

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

To enable E164 support within SGM for CS 1000


To enable E164 support within SGM for CS 1000, a configuration file on the AACC machine
must be updated. This change only affects the behavior of this machine. All machines in a HA
environment must be updated individually.

To update the configuration file:

1. Stop AACC
2. Navigate to “D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Manager Server\iccm\sgm\config\”
3. Backup the “SGM.properties” file
4. Edit the “SGM.properties” file
5. Add the following com.nortel.ccms.sip.MaintainE164CharsForCS1K=true
6. Save the “SGM.properties” file
7. Start AACC.

Third Party Software Upgrade Utility

wi01086965 The reboot message is not on top after running Third Party Software Upgrade
Utility on fresh system
After the completion of the upgrade task, the user is prompted to reboot their system via a warning dialog.
Sometimes this reboot prompt may become hidden behind the main application dialog - to reveal the
warning dialog use the Alt-Tab key combination to bring the dialog into the foreground.

wi01097093 Removal of WebLM license (plservrc.xml) on install of Tomcat 6.0.35 prevents


License Manager from starting
When performing a fresh install of AACC 6.3 Service Pack 11, or upgrading from an earlier Service Pack
line-up e.g. SP7, SP8, SP9* an upgrade of Third Party software is mandatory after installation of the
Service Packs.
The Third Party Software Upgrade Utility is provided to perform the Third Party software upgrade.

Note: SP10 and SP11 share the same Third Party software requirements therefore no Third Party software
update is required if upgrading from SP10.

The Upgrade utility upgrades Tomcat 6.0.35 if already installed or installs a fresh Tomcat installation if
executed on a clean system. During the installation of Tomcat 6.0.35, an attempt is made to remove the
following folder: <ContactCenterInstallDirectory>apache-tomcat\webapps\WebLM

If a WebLM License file is in use in this directory prior to Tomcat installation, it will be backed up as:
<ContactCenterInstallDirectory>License Manager\bin\plservrc_Tomcat_backup.xml

It can occur prior to or during the install of Tomcat 6.0.35, that folder
ContactCenterInstallDirectory>apache-tomcat\webapps\WebLM becomes locked by the operating system
or other process, thus preventing deletion. Tomcat will complete its installation but there may be a loss of
WebLM functionality and license data.

If this occurs the following steps must be taken to recover License Manager functionality:

1. Stop the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) if it is running via services.msc
2. Manually delete the folder <ContactCenterInstallDirectory>apache-tomcat\webapps\WebLM and
all contents
3. Start the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) via services.msc. This will recreate the
WebLM directory deleted on install of Tomcat 6.0.35
4. Launch AACC License Manager Configuration
5. Browse for a valid XML. You may browse to the earlier license backup of
<ContactCenterInstallDirectory>License Manager\bin\plservrc_Tomcat_backup.xml
6. Click Apply
7. Restart the Tomcat service via services.msc

Third Party Software Downgrade Utility


wi01101812 LM fails to start when applying Weblm license after test bed is downgraded from
SP10
If downgrading from AACC 6.3 Service Pack 11 to a previous Service Pack line-up e.g. SP9, SP8, SP7, a
Third Party software downgrade is mandatory.
The Third Party Software Downgrade Utility is provided to perform the Third Party software downgrade.

Note: SP10 and SP11 share the same Third Party software requirements therefore no Third Party software
update is required if downgrading from SP11 to SP10.

The Downgrade utility removes Tomcat 6.0.35 before installing Tomcat 6.0.20. During the removal of
Tomcat 6.0.35, an attempt is made to remove the following folder:
<ContactCenterInstallDirectory>apache-tomcat\webapps\WebLM

It can occur during the removal of Tomcat 6.0.35, that this folder becomes locked by the operating system
or other process, thus preventing deletion. This can result in a partial WebLM directory remaining on the
system after downgrade.

Note: The following procedure should be followed after you have:


i. Downgraded your Third Party Software
ii. Installed your Service Pack 7 Software Line-up

If the folder is not deleted, please perform the following steps:


1. Ensure you have a copy of your WebLM license file
2. Stop the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) via services.msc
3. Go the folder <ContactCenterInstallDirectory>apache-tomcat\webapps
4. Manually delete the folder WebLM
5. Start the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) if it has not already started, via
services.msc. Wait for completion.
6. Validate that WebLM directory is available
7. Restore WebLM license file as outlined in the procedure below

Restore WebLM License File


During the downgrade procedure, the WebLM License file will be backed up as follows:
<ContactCenterInstallDirectory>License Manager\bin\plservrc_Tomcat_backup.xml

On downgrade, this license file backup can be re-used as per the following process or an alternative user
copy can be used:

1. Start the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) if it has not already started, via
services.msc. Wait for completion.
2. Stop the Tomcat service (Contact Center Tomcat Instance) via services.msc
3. Launch AACC License Manager Configuration
4. Browse to the <ContactCenterInstallDirectory>License Manager\bin\
plservrc_Tomcat_backup.xml license file - click Apply (alternatively, browse for a valid license
XML of your choosing)
5. Restart the Tomcat service via services.msc

Archiving log files to DVD


The AACC 6.3 Log Archiver provides a feature where archives can be copied (or mirrored) to
a DVD. There is, however, a limitation in a Microsoft API that is used by this feature to
communicate with the DVD drive hardware. As a result, certain DVD drives will not work.
Microsoft does not provide a list of compatible drives so it is possible to identify drives that
will not work.

The following is the hardware that was tested in the Avaya test labs.
1. Supported drives: LG GSA-2164D, LG GCC-4482B, LG GCC-T10N, LG GCC-
T20N, Optiarc AD-5560A, TEAC DV-W28EAW, TSST SH-S182M
2. Unsupported drives: TSST TS-L463A

It is expected that most drives will not exhibit the problem. To check if your drive is
supported, open the Log Archiver configuration window, click the Settings tab, click the
Mirror Settings button, select the Disc tab and click on the Detect Media button. If you see the
error message below, your drive is not supported.

SIP HA Specific Issues


wi01128704 Treatments not restarted after AMS HA failover.
If customer calls are in the middle of hearing treatment (announcements/music/ringback) and an
AMS HA failover occurs, the treatments are not being restarted, so customers will hear silence
until they are routed to an agent.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 124


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Work Around:
There is no workaround to this issue.

Solution
This is resolved and will be available in the SP11 Post GA Patch rollup release.

wi01125405 New customer calls are not answered by AACC for 12-16 seconds after a
AMS HA failover.
New incoming customer calls are not answered by AACC for 12-16 seconds after an AMS HA
failover occurs. This is due to the SGM component incorrectly grey listing the AMS HA pair
after an AMS failover. This only impacts AACC systems with one AMS HA pair in the Media
Servers list.

Work Around:
This is no workaround to this issue.

Solution
This is resolved and will be available in the SP11 Post GA Patch rollup release.

wi01007880 After manual interchange of SPHA AES, DMCC and TR/87 ports were

On AES 6.2, during a manual interchange on SP HA AES and in one interchange, port 4721,
4722 and 4723 were not listening and all the registration went into idle mode. For AACC, after
an AES switchover, AACC cannot reestablish a TCP connection with AES.
Work Around:
The system recovered after restarting AES Services which does not initiate a switchover.

Solution
The fix for this issue was included in AES 6.2.0 Super Patch 1.

Known CCMS limitations


wi01101419 Not Ready time is not consistent across reports for multiplicity agents.
The inconsistency between Agent Performance and NRRC reports is intentional.

When agent is working on a MM contact and is in NotReady state in AAAD, the time is not pegged as
NotReady time in Agent Performance reports (because agent is not in Not Ready state in general).

But NRRC reports deal with Real agent only and look at his state so calculate Not Ready time.

The temp agent is changed to Not Ready state after he initiate IM CDN contact
The agent can be put in NotReady state without ability to handle MM contacts if he initiates
IM CDN contact which is presented to him again.
- If there is only one agent logged in and ready on the system and at the same time he
initiates IM CDN contact.
- If a blended agent is enabled with multiplicity and initiates IM contact to CDN then

Avaya Inc Proprietary 125


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

this outgoing IM contact will be connected with the real agent while the temporary
agent will remain in Idle state.

So the same agent can be selected for that IM CDN contact by ASM but in turn SGM will fail
the routing because the agent already has active IM session. In this case upon receiving failed
routing response ASM will force the temporary agent to NotReady state so the blended agent
won’t be able to handle MM contacts until IM CDN contact is released by the agent or handled
by another agent.

wi01122385 SGM sends CANCEL after receiving “181 Call is being Forwarded “ following
the INVITE to an agent DN.
The scenario can occur when a script is issuing a Route Call to the agent’s DN when it wants to send
the call to the agent’s voicemail. When AACC executes a route call to an agent DN it sends an
INVITE since it is aware of the agent’s address. When this call subsequently gets forwarded to
voicemail (181 CFW in the traceSM logs) – then AACC pulls the call back into the script (CANCEL
in the traceSM logs).

The fix for wi01122385 introduces the ability to suppress the SIP CANCEL message generated by
SGM immediately succeeding a “181 Call Is Being Forwarded”. Details on how to enable this option
and important pre-requisites to verify before enabling the option can be found below. It is
recommended to perform these steps immediately after the successful installation of any patch that
includes the resolution of wi01122385, prior to any reboot of the server platform or restart of services:

1. On the Avaya Aura® Contact Center server platform, logon with administrator rights. Navigate to
the following folder - D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Manager Server\iccm\sgm\config\
2. Locate the file called “SGM.properties” and open it in a suitable text editor – Notepad,
Notepad++, WordPad, etc.
3. Add the following lines after the final entry in the file:
# In Call Forwarding scenario prevent a CANCEL being sent immediately after the 181 'Call Is Being
Forwarded'
com.nortel.contactcenter.sgm.SuppressCancelAfter181CallForward=true
4. Save and Exit the file
5. Note that this setting must be changed on both the active and standby Avaya Aura® Contact
Center servers, if applicable
6. Using standard Avaya Aura® Contact Center restart procedures initialize the contact center
software.
7. Login and verify full operation
NOTE: As per the steps above, the SGM.properties file is static, and is not replicated in a HA
environment. This means that changes to this properties file only take effect after a system restart and
need to be manually changed in both Active and Standby server in a HA environment.

IMPORTANT NOTE: if you have already enabled this option and upgrade your AACC service pack
e.g. from SP10 to SP11, you will need to manually re-enable this setting after installation of the service
pack. You will need to re-enable the setting on both the active and standby servers in a HA
environment. (Re-enabling simply means editing the configuration file and changing the setting from
false to true as outlined in the steps above).

In SIP Contact Center, the dialed number information is now available and pegged correctly in
CBC reports. CallConsultInit event in CBC reports will show correct dialed number in case of

wi01080237 Call Force Answer Enabled: Two parties hear both voice and ringing tone
after blind CDN transfer
If “Call Force Answer” is enabled and an internal “customer” (using the same CM as AACC)
makes a CDN call which is answered by Agent1, the internal customer then does a “blind
transfer” using their desk phone to a CDN, Agent2 receives this CDN call, however both Agent1
and Agent2 continue to hear ringback on the transferred call.
1. Internal customer calls CDN
2. Agent1 receives the call
3. Internal customer makes a blind transfer using their desk phone to a CDN. Note: internal
customer needs to hit the "complete" button quickly.
4. Agent2 receives this call
Expected Result: Agent1 and Agent2 should be connected and able to talk.
Actual Result: Agent1 and Agent2 continue to hear ringback and can also hear each other.

Workaround:
There is no workaround to this issue. Note however that this problem only occurs when an
“internal customer” initiates the CDN call and does a blind transfer. This will not occur if an
external customer has initiated the CDN call.

SDMCA stuck starting


On a SIP based system, a rare race condition can occur when the communication to WebLM is slow.
The race condition can result is SDMCA stuck starting as it waits for NDLOAM which is stopped.

Workaround: Launch SCMU and click Start CCMS.

First system start-up post install, TFE stuck in starting


After the first start-up following an installation, TFE can be seen stuck in a starting state. This
is caused by a script activation failure. This can happen if the licensing is not correct at the
time of the first start-up of the server.

Workaround: Launch OD and activate all scripts. Multimedia Script first, followed by all
other scripts and Master script last

wi01050669 AAAD logs in to DeskPhone Mode even when Hardphone(SIP) is not logged in
AAAD allows user to Login to Deskphone mode even when there is no SIP Endpoint logged in.
AES does not know if the SIP Endpoint is logged in and therefore SGM does not know – so login is
allowed to continue. This is not an issue with H.323 stations.

Workaround: Ensure phone set is logged in.

Possible AACC Backup error when Backup operation completes


Possible error message displayed at completion of an AACC backup:
Error displayed at the end of a backup operation and the following is logged to the \Common
Components\CC_DBMaintenance.log file:

'O:\Backups\BACKUP_1\CCMS_CONF\DATA'. The folder may be in use by another application.
Close explorer windows and try again.

Workaround: Ensure there are no open File Explorer sessions to the backup folder and that the
location is not in use OR if the issue persists, backup to an empty folder location.

The AACC performs number of agent validation against Configured Agent IDs value not against
Agent positions value, which is under CCMA – Configuration – Historical reporting
If you are getting “Limit exceeded” error during agent creation please check that you have set
Configured Agent IDs appropriately
This validation was updated in SP9 to fix wi01045266 (AACC6.2 OAM: No checks performed on
configured agents). Users moving from pre SP9 systems to SP11 may now encounter the error
mentioned above, if they have inadvertently exceeded the Configured Agent IDs value.

wi01131054 The Not Ready field is not correct with Break Time equal 0 in the iSkillsetStat,
iAgentBySkillset table.
Have a Multiplicity Presentation Class with 3 interruptible options unchecked.

1. Log in a blended Agent Ready on AAAD with the above MPC


2. Make a CDN call to the agent
3. Agent accepts the CDN call (Agent is changed to NotReady status automatically)
4. Agent releases the call (Agent is in Idle immediately because the break time is 0)
5. Agent sets NotReady
6. Agent sets Ready
7. Wait for the next interval, launch iSkillsetStat, iAgentBySkillset report (These reports are
imported from RCW with the NotReady field added into report. This field (NotReady) is not showed
on the HR Report Template)

Expected Result: NotReady time from steps 5-6 is reflected in both tables.

Actual Result: NotReady time from steps 5-6 is not presented in tables. This time is shown as Idle.

wi01107848 AACC6.3 SP10 using close to 16GB while under max traffic in GAL HCLab on

Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

After a full un-install of Corporate License setup, CCMM LM starts up as Nodal


After the reboot following a full un-install of Corporate License setup, CCMM LM starts up as Nodal
license.

Workaround: Run the Server Configuration utility after the patches have been re-installed.

Standby CCMM did not get the MMP license on switchover


CCMM does not check its license state until cache is up and running, but the problem is that the LM
client is getting initialized beforehand (when the CCMM LM Service starts).
This is ok most of the time, as it initializes and connects to a running LM, but in this co-res campus
standby scenario it points to a bogus LM so it looks for the grace license and can’t get it from the db.
The licensing component does not recover from the first failure to connect to the db.

Workaround: A CCMM restart will bring everything up.

wi01104823 HA - SDMCA gets stuck in starting state after License change to add Networking
feature and performing switchover without rebooting Standby first
Description: When users enable Networking on the Active server, this change will be synchronized
automatically to the Standby server. But there is a mismatch between the Active & Standby about
enabling NDLOAM service. It's enabled on the Active, but not on the Standby. SDMCA will get stuck
due to NDLOAM disabled on the Standby if switchover is initiated.

To prevent this issue, after the Active Server has been rebooted you must also reboot the Standby
server for it to pick up the updated information correctly.

Networking versus non-Networking license features in WebLM


When using a WebLM licensing mechanism, If the networking feature/license is defined, License
Manager will only make available agent licenses of type "NET" (networking) and not of type "LOC"
(local) for consumption by other AACC components i.e. it will not be possible to unselect the
"Networking" package in Server Configuration and expect the previously created “NET” agent
licenses to work likewise.

Workaround: Produce a non-Networking WebLM license file when non-Networking operations are
required.

AD-LDS errors appear during install but installation completes and reports success
In circumstances where a server which was on a domain has been restored from a virtual image or a
ghost image, AD-LDS may fail to install correctly during the CCMA install. Several popup errors
will appear during the install, but the CCMA install will continue and report success.
The errors are as a result of broken trust between the server and the domain due to the fact that it
was restored from an image. The machine needs to be removed from the domain then re-added
before installing the CCMA software.

CCMA pages fail to load on some client machines but work ok on the
server
Certain CCMA pages appear to freeze while loading on some client PC’s while the same pages
work correctly when loaded on the CCMA server. This issue can be caused as a result of
configuration settings on the network interface card, in particular certain Broadcom Gigabit
Ethernet cards. This is a documented problem at the operating system and a workaround is
available from Microsoft. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951037

wi00822957Update OpenInterfaces Web Services and SCE Web Services to support


https/SSL
The CCMA WCF Web Services need to be updated to support HTTPS/SSL.

WCF web services are limited in relation to SSL/nonSSL support. A single web.config cannot
support both (This is a Microsoft limitation). CCMA has 2 WCF web services - SCE and Open
Interfaces and it installs only the nonSSL versions by default. Therefore SCE/Open Interfaces
fail if SSL is enabled.

In order to work around this limitation and allow SCE and Open Interfaces to work with SSL,
you must do the following procedure:
1. Open a command prompt (DOS window)
2. Navigate to \avaya\contact center\Manager administration\server
3. Run wcApplyChanges –i
Note: if you ever need to revert back to a nonSSL setup, you will need to re-run the steps
performed above.

Migrating data between 6.x releases


In the case where data from an earlier 6.x service pack is being migrated to a 6.2 CCMA
server, the following command should be run to update the database: <installdrive>:\

Unable to restore CCMA backup from server with multiple drives to a


server that only has a single disk
The CCMA restore utility does not allow the user to restore a CCMA backup taken from a
server that has more than one disk drive (e.g. C:\ and D:\). A similar hardware configuration is
required on the new server in order to support this restore.

wi01050175 Downgrading a CCMA from AACC 6.3 to AACC 6.2 SP7 results in
increased CPU usage
After downgrading a CCMA server from AACC 6.3 to AACC 6.2 SP7 the CCMA LM service
consumes the full resources of one CPU (e.g. 25% CPU usage on a quad processor server).
There is an SP7 patch available from Avaya Support to resolve this issue.

wi01058428 Internet Explorer 8 terminates intermittently when downloading updated


ActiveX controls
The first time that Internet Explorer accesses CCMA after an upgrade it will download the
updated ActiveX controls. In some cases IE may terminate immediately after the download.
Restarting the browser fixes the problem and it will work correctly thereafter.

wi01074996 “DNS” shouldn't be listed in the “Domain Details” section of agent details

Avaya Inc Proprietary 140


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Configuration Tool spreadsheets is restricted due to the Microsoft Excel 2003 limit of 256
columns per worksheet. Not all of the 256 columns are available for skillset data, as some are
reserved for information such as First Name, Last Name, UserCapability, Login ID, Language,
PrimarySupID, Contact Types, etc. These restrictions need to be considered, so that data is not
lost during download/upload.

A further issue has been discovered related to large numbers of Agents and Skillsets, resulting
in the SCT failing to load data due to a ‘time-out’.

The following issue has been discovered with the SCT tool. On a CCMA system which has
agents that don't have corresponding CCT agents created and you use the SCT tool to
download Users information. The SCT tool automatically adds Domain and DomainUserName
information for those agents without corresponding CCT agents, when it shouldn't. The
Domain and DomainUserName information can also be incorrect, as the variables are not
being reset for each agent. This can result in duplicate Domain and DomainUserName
information being displayed for multiple agents.

Solution:
In order to resolve the issues mentioned above, a file drop has been provided. The new files are
based on Excel 2007 which removes the limit of 256 columns of data per spreadsheet.
Therefore SCT can download/upload more than 256 contact types and Skillsets correctly. The
following files are attached to ClearQuest wi01130782:

 m1_sct.exe (M1 Spreadsheet 6.3 SP10)


 sip_sct.exe (SIP Spreadsheet 6.3 SP10)

Avaya Inc Proprietary 141


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

If the user attempts to add an agent when the maximum value for "Configured Agent IDs" or
“Agent Positions” has been reached, a generic error message is returned. For example if the
value for "Configured Agent IDs" in the Historical Statistics page is set to 900. Once this limit
is reached, if the user then tries to create agent 901, the error message will be displayed. The
same behavior is also true for the “Agent Positions” field. The user needs to increase the value
of the "Configured Agent IDs" and “Agent Positions” in the Historical Statistics page, but this
is not evident from the error message (see screenshots below).

The error message is as follows:


Error: Unable to save the users details.-2147220475:The number of items you are adding

wi01083312 Agent unable to login to AACC when they have IM contact type assigned

CCMA currently allows the IM contact type to be assigned to an agent when the agent
doesn't have a Voice URI. This agent is then not able to log into AACC as the Voice
URI is required.

CCMA needs to validate this configuration and prevent the login error from happening.

AML agent state reported incorrectly


If an AML agent attempts to logout of AACC while on a Posn ID call, CCT will display the agent
as “Logged Out” while the CS 1k reports the agent as in a Pending Logged Out until the Posn ID
call drops at which stage the agent gets logged out automatically.

The Pending Logged Out stage can be cancelled by an agent by clearing the Make Set Busy
request. After this step CCT is out of synch with the CS 1k. To resolve this issue the Agent must
manually logout of the phone set and log back in via the CCT client.

CCT-IVR
CCT-IVR with MPS3.5 and MPS4.1 has been tested and verified with AACC Service Pack 11.
For MPS3.5 there is no license change. For MPS 4.1 the license string for version would need to
be 4.1 for tls, cshdxls, csrsmls, and cstapils. The installation of CCT IVR must be done on a
standalone server and cannot be installed co-resident with an Avaya Aura Contact Center server.

WI00793563 CCMM: MCMC Service restarting after service shutdown on SIP/CoRes


Systems
The MCMC service restarts intermittently after getting shutdown. This is due to the service
recovery settings in Windows Service Control. By default these are set to restart the service after
1 minute if it terminates. On shutting down the MCMC service there is an intermittent issue
where the service terminates instead of shutting down cleanly hence the service is restarted by
service recovery.
Workaround(to get MCMC service to remain shutdown):
Switch off the failure recovery in Windows Service manager using the following steps:
1. Launch Start->Run
2. Enter “services.msc” and enter
3. Select the service “CCMM Multimedia Contact Manager”, Right click and select
properties.
4. Select the “Recovery” tab.
5. Change the settings under First, Second and Subsequent failures from “Restart the
Service” to “Take no Action”
Note: Setting should be changed back to “Restart the Service” when system operational.

wi00932192 AACC services not starting after patching a full Multimedia cores system
On a system where CCMM is co-resident with AACC, an important registry key may get

Avaya Inc Proprietary 148


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

overwritten during patching. In order to install a new service pack, any older service pack has to
be removed, so, for a time only the base software is on the machine. If the base CCMM services
start, the LSHost registry key can be updated to an incorrect value for the co-resident system,
causing start-up problems for the AACC after patching is complete.

Workaround: After installing the new service pack, run Server Config to fix the LSHost registry
key.

wi00891414 Mail Attachments do not backup when path/filename exceeds 255 characters
Note: A fix for this issue was delivered in SP6 to prevent new attachments exceeding 255
characters. However, workaround information is still required for customers upgrading from
prior releases.

Mail Attachments do not get backed up if path/filename is over 255 characters. This is due to a
limitation of NTFS. The following error will be reported in logs when attempting a backup
ERROR #5001: xcopy - Initialization error (not enough memory or disk space, invalid drive, or

This error does not indicate a failure of the database backup rather a failure to backup the
attachment folders.

Workaround: Copy the attachment files directly out of the subfolder to the location you require
the files stored.

wi01011000 SIP CS1K - AACC6.2 SP6 – IM - Presence tab is disappeared on login page
of Agent after upgrading from an older SP
When upgrading your CCMM server from an older SP to AACC 6.3, you first must remove
the old SP software. This action will remove the settings on your CCMM Administrator that

SP is installed.
Note: this issue does not occur for Welcome Messages configured per skillset. Issue is specific
to the Default Welcome Message when no Welcome Message is configured for a skillset.

Workaround: After the SP install update the default welcome message to the desired text.

wi00851137 CCMM overwriting licensing LSHost & Type values


Upgrading from one CCMM patch level to another may cause LM registry key to be
incorrectly updated. The LSHost & Type keys located at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Nortel\LM may be overwritten.
This means CCMS services do not start after the CCMM patch has been installed

Workaround: To stop this issue occurring, once the CCMM patches have been applied, if
CCMS ServerConfig is run, it will set the LS_Hosts registry key to the correct value.

On Essential system, administrator configures Display Voice contact function on Web Admin
CCMM to display voice contact history on AAAD. When customer makes a CDN call and agent
receives it on AAAD, agent opens History tab on Customer Detail page of AAAD, but the voice
contact history detail does not display

Workaround: If MM license is available, Voice call history will work.

wi01048027 AAAD uses ctrl-home macro in email handling operation.


AAAD uses ctrl-home macro when it is handling emails. If 3rd party applications are deployed on
the same PC as AAAD, agents should not be using the ctrl-home macro to access this application
as this short cut could be invoked inadvertently using AAAD.

Workaround: Use different macros instead of ctrl-home.

wi00836601 DN to CDN conference, call representation on AAAD is lost after conf


complete
The following is an edge case scenario where a customer calls an Agents Phone number directly
(not via the contact centre) and then the Agent transfers the call into the Contact Centre. The
issue only occurs when the following exact steps are taken:

1. Customer calls Agent 1 DN number directly


2. Agent 1 initiates a CDN conference to Agent 2 (conferencing the customer call indirectly into
the CC)
3. Agent 2 answers the call.
4. Agent 1 completes the conference call.
5. Agent 2 releases call, leaving Agent 1 and customer on the call.

After Agent 2 drops off (step 5), the call is still physically present between physical phone sets
and Agent 1 and the customer can continue to converse with no issues. However the

Scroll Bar does not work on an AAAD 'filtered' autocomplete list.


When an autocomplete list is presented on AAAD, the user can type a character to filter the
autocomplete list. If the resulting filtered list is greater than 16 items, there will be a scroll bar,
but the scroll bar will not work.

This is caused by a known defect in Microsoft .Net.

Workaround: The Microsoft position is that users should use the keyboard to navigate this
“autocomplete” (filtered) list i.e. arrow buttons to move, and Enter to select.

AAAD ClickOnce update fails.


Occasionally an AAAD ClickOnce update will fail if the client has had multiple updates without

"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process"

This is a Windows issue. The problem is in the interaction between the particular PC and the
Microsoft ClickOnce publishing platform.

Workaround: Reboot the client machine to release the locked file and re-launch the clickOnce
AAAD.

Security Framework

wi01008566 Uninstall of base SFW does not remove all data, breaking the next re-install
If the security framework is uninstalled from a server and then re-installed CND does not
install correctly. The result is that SFW cannot be configured. This has been reproduced with
the SFW base install that is bundled with AACC SP5.
CND remains in Add/Remove programs after SFW has been uninstalled. It cannot be removed
from Add/Remove programs.

Workaround: The CND registry information must be manually removed from the registry after
the SFW has been removed.
- Launch Regedit
- Search for "Common Network Directory"
- Delete the registry key that contains this information.
At this point the SFW can be re-installed.

Feature Specific: Multiplicity

wi00794149 [M&I] Agent By Skillset Post Call Processing stat not working with
Multiplicity
Post Call Processing (also known as After Call Work) is the time the agent spends performing
activities relating to the contact that has just been completed. The agent signals the start of
PCP by entering the Not Ready state. When the agent is working on multiple contacts PCP is
not pegged until the last contact is released.

Workaround: No workaround currently available.

Feature Specific: High Availability

wi00895527 AACC HA: Following a Switchover and then a Switchback, Agents that
have been logged in for all this time will have incorrect RTDs until the next
call/contact
1. Agent has (for example) multiplicity, with 1 email and 1 voice.
2. Switchover
3. Follow procedure for Switchback (backup & restore etc)
4. Switchback
5. Assume agent has remained logged in, and is still working on the call and email.
6. Examine RTD for the agent
7. The voice line for the agent shows “busy” not “active”, and the skillset is not shown.
8. The MM contact(s) are summarized in one line, with ”busy”, or “idle” if no MM contacts
are active. The skillset is not shown.
9. RTD corrects automatically with next new call, new email.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 155


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

This limitation applies to situations where the standby AACC is started after there has been
agent/call/contact activity on the active AACC. A switchover and switchback is a prime
example, but could also occur during commissioning.

Note that the standby AACC is not tracking every nuance of contact processing that is taking
place in the active. The key preserved elements are agent login state and ready state. Some
RTD items such as time in state will revert to zero and start counting again upon the outage of
the active AACC.

Workaround: No workaround. RTDs automatically recover, but will be incorrect until next
new call/contact. For customers that choose to perform steps 3 & 4 as out of hours
maintenance this problem will not arise, because after step 2 the agents will have logged out
and they will log in again as part of step 5.

wi00926067 AACC HA: Call Disconnects Can be Lost While AACC is Switching Over
The AACC takes between 200msec and 5 sec to complete a switchover. During this time it is
possible that a BYE may originate from the Session Manager. While the AACC HA pair is in
transition, this BYE cannot be processed or acknowledged, and it will not be resent by the SM.

Therefore, it is possible for example that when a customer goes on-hook, the customer leg of a
call will be properly cleared, but the associated agent leg will not automatically be taken down.
The agent will also have to disconnect (i.e. separately disconnect his/her leg of the session).

Workaround: Agent clicks “release” button on AAAD at the end of the conversation with the
customer.

Re-Attempting INVITEs
Note that, similar to BYE, INVITE call setup sequences could conceivably be in progress
when AACC switches over (i.e. before the call dialog is stable / established). Depending on
when the AACC switchover occurs relative to the progress the SIP dialog setup, the agent may
be set to NRdy. The agent can go Rdy again to workaround if this occurs. In SM/SMGR 6.1,
there is no specific config item to make the SM retry an INVITE when Timer B expires (i.e.
when the INVITE request times out), plans are underway to include such an option in SM 6.2.

wi00895119 AACC HA: Cannot complete in-flight consultative transfer post-switchover


A supervised transfer that is in-flight at the time of an outage of the active AACC cannot be
completed.

Workaround: Following the AACC switchover, the agent disconnects and re-calls the
transferee number, which does not affect the customer leg of the session. The transfer can then
be completed.

wi00953109 Disabling NIC on Active crashes SMMC


For an SMMC based HA system, if the NIC is disabled it can cause SMMC to crash. The
crash can result in an indeterminate state of HA system

Workaround: There is no workaround. In an SMMC based HA system, do not disable the


NIC on the active server.

wi00947429 On switchover Presenting contacts' Call Presentation timeout has not


worked correctly
Set the system to have a Return To Queue of, for example, 30 seconds (set in CCMA,
Configuration, Call Presentation Classes).
Log in an agent, set to NRdy
Send in a CDN call or webcom or email (depending on which contact type is appropriate for
the agent you are using)
Set the agent ready & once the contact is presenting/alerting, don’t answer, pull the CAT 5
cable(s) out of the active AACC, causing a switchover.
The presenting contact will not timeout after 30 sec. In general, it will remain alerting until
answered. In the case of a voice call, a separate SIP timeout will occur and the call will be
taken back and requeued.

There is no loss of customer contacts or calls, there is no loss of agent state.


The absence of Call Pres timing is only visible for the subset of contacts that happen to be
alerting on AAAC at the time of the active AACC outage.

Workaround: None. Call Pres timing operates normally for all contacts routed post-
switchover.

wi01073764 [SP10]AML-6.3-The Migration button is always disabled with the system


time zone is not on DST
To Prevent the corruption of the database and keep its consistency when doing a Database
Migration, the above work item was created.

When attempting to migrate in Database maintenance, if you have Daylight Saving Time
(DST) Turned on, the migrate will not continue as it causes severe inconsistencies to the
database thus affecting other components.

It has been observed that if you do not have the latest Hot fixes for countries DST, Database
maintenance gets inaccurate readings from your windows settings as your system is out of
date, thus allowing migrations when it shouldn’t, or blocking migrations when it should.

Workaround: Install the latest Hot fixes for DST that apply to your Timezone and system.

In a very rare instance, it has been observed that after a switchover the number of contacts
reported by the RTD is not the same as reported prior to the switchover. All real contacts are
correctly routed and processed by agents.

Workaround: The root cause of the reporting discrepancy is the contact processing sub-system
can be operational before the reporting sub-system is available. There is currently no
workaround.

wi00999914 CCMA 6.2: Replication: Schema migration fails for NES6.0 to AACC6.2
upgrade. Order change required.
This issue only impacts upgrades from NES 6.0 to AACC 6.2 when CCMA replication is
configured on NES 6.0.

The upgrade procedure involves a migration from the NES 6.0 server (running Win 2003) to a
new AACC 6.2 server (running Win2008 R2) and these steps are fully documented in the
Upgrade and Patching guide.

Issues have been seen where errors are displayed during the upgrade procedure – CCMA
System Upgrade utility. These errors are the result of schema changes failing during the
upgrade and result in login errors when attempting to authenticate against CCMA. Example:
“Invalid profile ID”.

Workaround: To avoid this issue, the following upgrade/migration procedure must be


changed:

Guide: Avaya Aura®Contact Center Upgrade and Patches (NN44400-410)


Chapter: Chapter 10: Contact Center Manager Administration migration

Modifications to current procedure:

1. The step “Removing obsolete replication entries from the active CCMA server” must be
done before the NES 6.0 Backup is taken.
IMPORTANT: This step will remove replication from the NES 6.0 system. Always take a
backup of the CCMA server before making any changes in case you need to revert to a
replicating system again.
2. As the replication partners are removed prior to the migration, there is no requirement to
disable replication as part of the procedure.

More information on the “Removing obsolete replication entries from the active CCMA
server” step:

The currently documented procedure for the above step, assumes running ADSI Edit on a Win
2008 R2 server. As this step is now recommended prior to the NES 6.0 backup, the following
procedure should be used.

Remove obsolete replication entries from the primary CCMA server (NES 6.0 / Win2003)

Avaya Inc Proprietary 158


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

When migrating to a new server, it is necessary to remove any old CCMA replication
references from the primary server configuration. Any new secondary servers will be re-added
during install time.

1. Run the ADSI Edit tool from: “Start, All Programs, ADAM, ADAM ADSI Edit”.
2. Create a connection by choosing “Action”, “Connect To:”
3. Choose the “Configuration” option for the “Well known naming context” option.
4. Specify “localhost” for the computer to connect to.

Note: Ensure that the correct port number is specified. The default is 389 but this is
configurable at install time and may be different on your system.

Example:

5. Expand “Configuration”, then expand “CN=Configuration container”


6. Expand CN=Sites.
7. Expand CN=Default-First-Site-Name.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 159


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

8. Expand CN=Server to see a list of servers in the replication configuration set.

Identify the old (NES) Secondary servers that are no longer in use and will be replaced by a
new CCMA installation. Servers will appear in the format:

CN = <ServerName>$SymposiumWC

Note: You can confirm you are removing the correct server by checking the
“dnsHostName” field in the properties window for that server entry.

9. Under CN=Servers, on the unwanted standby CCMA server object, right-click and select
Delete.

Caution: Take care not to delete the active CCMA server entry from the list of server objects.

10. Accept the deletion confirmation dialog box.

wi01076997 AACC 6.3 SP10 HA: could not start HA system after daylight saving time
changes due to mixed dates in the journal files
When testing Daylight Savings Time (DST) changes in a Lab setting it is sometimes necessary
to move the Servers Date backwards. This is something that would not happen in the real
world and is not supported. If you do need to adjust the Date backwards, it is possible that the
Caché Database will not Start Up, this is due to the fact that there will be Journal Files on the
system with Future Dates. It is possible to recover from this situation by following these steps:

Avaya Inc Proprietary 160


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

 Ensure Caché is Stopped.


 Set the Date/Time back to where you need it to be.
 Delete all the Journal Files in the X:\Avaya\Contact Center\Databases\Journal folder.
 Reboot the Server.
 Perform a Backup and Restore of the Databases.

This should also preserve the integrity of the Database in that no data will be lost, but it should
be noted that any data that contains Date/Time information could potentially have data marked
as being in the future, this would be particularly evident for the Historical Statistics for
example.

It should be stressed that this cannot happen in Live running, as Dates are never moved
backwards, even with a DST change, it is only the Time that changes.

wi01125718 AACC_IQ RTD mismatch after AACC switchover


Post completing an AACC switchover when an IQ system is being used for reporting, for a
period of time there is a mismatch of the reported data (Agent State & Route Points) in the IQ
reports. Other data is correct.

Work Around:
The system recovers itself after a period of time (aprox 45 mins). The AACC RTD’s continue
to show the correct information.

During CCMS start up, an automatic switchover or CCMS monitored services can be
restarted if service start up takes longer than configured monitor time
Systems affected: Some AML / SIP CS1k CCMS systems with large amount of task flow
scripts/applications e.g. > 300 scripts/applications.
Pre-conditions: Automatic Switchover is Enabled and Service Monitoring is ON.
Background: During CCMS services start up e.g. post reboot or manual start up of services, if
monitored services “OAM_Service, NBTSM_Service, NITSM_Service, ASM_Service,
TFE_Service, CCMS_OAM_CMF_Service, CCMS_SIP_Service, CCMS_NBMSM_Service,
or CCMS_UNE_Service” take longer than 8 minutes to start, CCMS service Service triggers an
automatic switchover

Workaround: Configure 1200 seconds for StartWaitTime under High Availability-CC


Configuration. See attached image

Avaya Inc Proprietary 161


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Note: If for any reason, monitored services takes longer than 1200 seconds (20 minutes), turn off
Service monitoring by un-checking the "Monitor" checkbox before or during the start up.
Once the CCMS services fully started, Monitoring can be turned on with default configuration or
other custom configuration.

operating system (installed from the language DVD/CD) rather than as an OS language patch on
top of an English operating system install, for example English Windows 2008 with Microsoft
French language patch installed.

Support of CCMA Client


The CCMA client is supported on Internet Explorer 7, 8 and 9, with the browser’s Language
Preference set to the relevant language e.g. Japanese – Japanese CCMA client is supported on

Support of CCMM Server and Configuration Notes

CCMM server / Regional Options Configuration


The CCMM Server is supported when installed on the relevant language 2008 with regional
options defaulted to the relevant client e.g. French – CCMM Server installed on French 2008
with Regional Options default set to French

Enable email analyzer

Language Email Analyzer –


Change default SimpleAnalyzer to…
French FrenchAnalyzer
German GermanAnalyzer
LA Spanish AlphanumericAnalyzer
Simplified Chinese or ChineseAnalyzer
Traditional Chinese
Japanese or Korean CJKAnalyzer
Brazilian Portuguese BrazilianAnalyzer
Russian RussianAnalyzer
Italian ItalianAnalyzer

See French as an example:


An English email analyzer (AlphanumericAnalyzer) is enabled by default for keyword analysis
of English Latin-1 character sets on the CCMM server. A FrenchAnalyzer should be specified for
French.
The mailservice.properties file on the CCMM Server specifies what analyzer is used and lists all
supported analyzers in the comments.
Action needed: Update mailservice.properties file on the CCMM server to enable the email
analyzer for French

1. Stop the CCMM Email Manager service on the server


2. Navigate to D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Multimedia Server\Server Applications\EMAIL
3. Open mailservice.properties
4. Change the properties of the file from read only to write available
5. In the <box> search for the line mail.analyzer=AlphanumericAnalyzer
6. Change mail.analyzer=AlphanumericAnalyzer to mail.analyzer=FrenchAnalyzer
7. Start the CCMM Email Manager service on the server

The keyword is used correctly for routing email messages with a French string.

Wildcard use (Asian), Limitation 1 - Single Byte Routing

NB: The following wildcard limitation applies to Asian languages only

Again, using Japanese is used as an example, but all Asian languages using double byte will
apply;

Avaya Inc Proprietary 166


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

To route a single byte keyword, you must save the keyword as DOUBLE byte on the server.

There is a limitation when enabling the email analyzer to Japanese (CJKAnalyser).


This is a limitation of the creator of the analyzer, Lucene.
A problem arises ONLY when using SINGLE BYTE characters in the keyword, double byte
routes successfully.
To route a single byte keyword, you must save the keyword as DOUBLE byte on the server.
There are no new files needed for this workaround.
Action: The workaround is to add DOUBLE byte keywords to route both single and double byte
successfully.
If you wish to route a single byte keyword to a skillset, you must setup the keyword in DOUBLE
byte.
For example to route the single byte keyword コプタto a skillset called EM_Test do the
following.

1) Create a DOUBLE byte keyword


 In the Multimedia Administrator, click the plus sign (+) next to Contact Center Multimedia,
click the plus sign next to E-mail Administration, and then double-click Keyword Groups.
 The Keyword Groups window appears.
 To create a new keyword group, click New.
 In the Name box, type a unique name for the keyword group (maximum 64 characters. This
NAME must be in English). E.g. “DoubleByteCoputa”
 In the Keyword box, type the word (in DOUBLE byte) you will be searching for.
E.g. “コプタ” Click Add.
The keyword is added to the list, and the keyword group is created. Click Save.

2) Create a Rule to route the keyword to a skillset


 Start the Rule Configuration Wizard.
 On the Rule Configuration Wizard – Input Criteria window, under Available Keyword
Groups, select a keyword group you want to use for this rule. E.g. “DoubleByteCoputa”
 Click the black arrow to insert the keyword group name into the selection box.
 Click Next.
 In the Rule box, type the name for your rule. E.g. “DoubleByteCoputaRule”
 In the Skillset box, select a skillset for your rule. . E.g. “EM_Test”
 Click Save.
 Click Finish. Your rule is created with the keyword group.

3) Send in an email with the SINGLE byte word コプタ.


The single byte keyword now routes successfully to the EM_Test skillset.
** Note this also applies when using wildcards in keywords.

Wildcard use (Asian), Limitation 2 - Wildcard * and ? string position

NB: The following wildcard limitation applies to Asian languages only

Wildcard ‘?’ or ‘*’ can only be used at the end of a keyword in a Japanese environment.
When using the wildcard ‘*’ or ‘?’, it can only be used at the end of a string
for example:
たば* = ok

Avaya Inc Proprietary 167


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

た*た = no

Note:
To route the wildcard keyword successfully, the ‘*’ can be entered in either full-width or half
width. The ‘?’ can be entered in full-width only

Email Domain Names (Asian)

NB: The following applies to Asian languages only

Using Japanese as an example:


Internationalized Domain Names are defined by RFC 3490. They can include glyphs from East
Asian languages. The take-up on these domain names has been low to date - mostly because of
the dangers of ‘phishing’ sites (an email with a link to www.aib.ie in an email might point you to
a site that has the "i" and a "b" in the domain but some other glyph resembling an "a".

W3C have identified a means of using ‘punycode’ to implement IDNs - this basically provides an
ASCII equivalent to the domain name. Normally, the client (web browser or email client) accepts
the IDN in native characters and converts it to ‘punycode’ e.g. xn--jp-cd2fp15c@xn--fsq.com .
The receiving client will identify the sender as being a punycode’ string and resolve to the native
characters. CCMM can support IDNs by having the user enter a punycode’ email address
directly. The receiving client will be capable of rendering the native characters.

CCMM friendly display names

Display names are referred to in the CCMM Server online Help in section Creating or changing
a recipient, section 99. In the Display Name box, type the friendly name you want to appear in
the e-mail From address (for example, Customer Support). You must enter a display name for
each mailbox.
In response to the case reported above, the Internet Standard IETF RFC 1036, Section 2.1,
permits only ASCII characters in the display name.
Some email vendors, such as MS Outlook, included, invalidly permit double-byte display names
which are contrary to the Internet Standard. CCMM has always strictly adhered to the Internet
Standard and handles only ASCII characters.

Logging on to Contact Center Manager Administration


Log on to Contact Center Manager Administration to access the application and administer the
contact center.

Enabling languages
The customer can no longer decide if a language should be installed, a new CCMA Configuration
utility was added to enable a language.

The Language Settings utility is accessed from the CCMA Configuration screen.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 168


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

The AACC 6.3 GA version has English only on the list. English is always enabled and cannot
be disabled. The utility shows the current server code page. English is for the current server
code page in the screenshot below.

Once Service Pack is installed, all localized languages will appear. Only languages matching the
current server code page can be enabled, others are disabled.
The utility supports multiple row selection and space bar toggling of enabled checkbox. To
quickly enable or disable all supported languages, press [Ctrl] + A, then press space bar.

Avaya Inc Proprietary 169


Avaya Aura® Contact Center 6.3 Release Notes

Note: If server code page changes, previously enabled languages can still be changed.
