• Join TMS MCU fails with "no ip bandwidth...". »

  We are trying to install a telepresence VTC system. We are trying to register the MCU (5320) (4.5) for TMS (14.6). We use a virtual VCS as the doorman. When attempting to add the TMS MCU, we get a warning "no bandwidth set to the system - system has bandwidth IP or ISDN bandwidth..." MSD displays zeros (0) for Ports and bandwidth. We have defined the bandwidth of the MCU on parameters of the H.323 MCU. There must be some little thing that we have not been configured correctly. We rechecked SNMP parameters, parameters H.323, etc. anything.

  Someone at - it have this problem before?

  TIA,

  Mark

  Areas are used in routing when creating the Conference schedules.  You can assign areas after adding points of termination or infrastructure in TMS, or while you are being added to them.  You can read more about which areas are in the TMS administration Guide, starting on pg 46.

  Regarding your MCU, if you are devoid of multimedia ports, it is probably the root cause of the problem.  Cisco have added to them, you'd only you you receive the product similar to how you added the activation keys and encryption.  If you go to the Cisco Licensing Portal, navigate to obtain other licenses > license of telepresence to return, then enter the serial number of the MCU.  It returns all the keys related to this MCU option if media ports were purchased, they should appear on the screen.  You are looking for something that says "L-5300-4PL.

• Cisco Telepresence Server/Cisco Telepresence driver/Cisco VCS - C / Cisco TMS license

  A big problem with the fact that I'm stuck is licensing. Really, I have tried many things to find the solution for it, but could not.

  I have actually made all of these servers (mentioned in the title) in my lab in preparation for the CCNP Collaboration certification at home.

  I am not able to complete some laboratories due to license issue (I guess). Y at - it an option to get the demo license for all these servers?

  I would be really greatfull if someone can suggest me the solution and/or the licenses required to complete all the stuff for my CCNP Collab tag.

  Best regards

  TMS and VCS - C when installed without licenses, are automatically set mode of demonstration/test with some availability of license to test with. If needing a VCS-E, you will need to do to your account manager and they should be able to get you the time limited licenses good because I think that 90 days.

  Conductor Essentials is free, which means that you can install and get full functionality without the need of all licenses, but you are limited to 1 conference bridge and no grouping is allowed.

  TelePresence Server require licenses to function, once again, reaching out to your account manager for this.

  At the end of the day, you should reach to your account manager for all of this, as they should be able to help get timed license if you need.

• By TMS MCU conference number

  Hi all

  We recorded with vcs several MCU Standing Conference, the source of the telephone directory of endpoint is TMS. I am able to discover and manage all the end points of TMS.

  How to display the number of MCU Permanent conference on endpoint through TMS telephone directory? So that users could dial into permanent conference of the directory itself?

  Currently, I have discovered all the endpoints of TMS and its appearance on all telephone directories of endpoint.

  Thanks in advance!

  Bobby

  Hi Bobby

  Create a new source 'manual list type' less manage sources of the telephone directory. Save and add a contact. Type the conference name, add it.

  Now click on the add contact method and write the address you use to dial the Conference. SIP or H323, (E164 alias is H323)

  Save it and go in manage inventories, create a new directory and connect the source you just created. Then click on set on systems and select all the systems you want to see this directory. And save.

  Every endpoint should now be able to compose this conference through the phone book.

• The Installation of server for content telepresence (6.2 BE6K) failed

  Hi all.

  Am Yoong.

  I tried to install the TCS 6.2 in BE6K.

  Yoong huh.

  You following the installation guide exactly?

  Without knowing more details, I'm guessing that not create you a second partition E: newspapers of TCS and other associated where application data?

• [Issue] TMS without VMWare using the UCS is off license?

  Hello. I am an engineer junior videoconference from South Korea.

  We use the TMS device type, but now, if we order a new MSDS, we should buy a TMS worm, not the type of device software.

  Yes, it's ok.

  However, I've heard CISCO UCS user agreement dosen't allow to install the windows Server 2008 for TMS basement without VMware environment.

  If I don't know the terms of the agreement and install the OS without VMware, then, I can take the open service case?

  is this true? If it is true, then, I do not understand these terms of use for UCS for TMS.

  Could you link/specity the user agreement you're talking about?

  Besides the fact that you have a license for vmware, I don't think

  that a server is empty of ucs has such a restriction.

  On the other hand, you might want to use vmware under tms just to make your life

  easier (snapshorts before the updates, share the same server with other applications

  (such as vcs, cucm, sql dedicated server, linux management box,...)

• Redundancy of the TMS with TMSXE

  Hi team,

  Since there is no redundancy of each device as VCS, MCU. I want to ask about a redundancy of MSDS on a virtual server-based computer.

  How can we create a redundancy of MSDS on server VM.

  Currently, my client bought only Cisco's TMS software and is installed on the server of the virtual computer. They would create a redundancy of TMS in case of TMS first down.

  Also, tell me if the first TMS license can be put on the 2nd TMS?

  And how wud it work with TMSXE?

  Apprecite your answer.

  Thank you

  Hi karim and Martin.

  We have released a brand new redundancy TMS 13.2 deployment guide a few days ago. The old man is very old and obsolete; Please pretend that there is not. The document should answer questions of karim.

  TMSXE and redundancy: we come through a long series of tests TMSXE 3.0.1 with a load-balanced solution TMS (two TMS servers behind a Cisco ACE 4710 appliance). Some time in the near future, we will add to the official documentation of TMSXE that this installation has been tested and is supported by Cisco.

• TMS and TCS Cluster

  We had two boxes of telepresence Content Server, as separate in TMS for a while now (TCS01 and TCS02)

  Recently, we grouped matches of two.  A day or two after having done this, the TCS02 device appears in TMS with an error "incorrect authentication information.  TCS01 is fine.

  Would we still followed the two devices separately in the TMS, or should we now be treated as a single device (via the pole DNS entry)?  Or is there a problem with TCS02 do we do?

  Hi Wayne,

  Try the steps below and let me know your comments.

  Here we must activate and change the API password in CHT management settings

  set a new password TCS (which is used for adding the TCS to the TMS
  Server)
  Connect to the web interface of TCS¹s go to

  Management > Configuration > Site Settings > API

  Ensure that the API is enabled. Choose a new password, and then save it.

  The user and the password in the settings of the API is the same user name and password
  who to be used when adding the TCS to the TMS

• Telepresence reduandancy

  Dear all

  I'm still a beginner in telepresnence and I have a few questions as follows below:

  I have two VCS controll (one for reduandancy) and two VCS expressway (the other for reduandancy), MCU and TMS, with points of ending double CTS 50 tandberg 2000, 3000 and desktop videoconferencing

  My questions:

  (1) about the VCS reduandancy controll and highway, how the design will be located between them?

  (2) how the traversezone/areas, it will be between VCs... .and between amd TMS MCU?

  (3) what is the more important things that I have to know about it? what the best design I'm concerned based on these points?

  Thanks and greetings

  The most common scenario would be to use clusters for redundancy purposes. You don't say what software version (s) your VCS-C/VCS-E are running, but go here: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/unified-communications/telepresence-video-communication-server-vcs/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html and choose the "VCS Cluster Cra and maintenance Guide" related to your deployment.

  It's all there in the deployment guide.

  Crossing area is no longer relevant between the VCS - C and the VSC - E, MCU or TMS comes in as far as tz goes.

• TCS recorded video playback using video endpoint

  Hello

  I've deployed a Telepresence from Cisco Content Server (TCS 5.3) and met with problem regarding on how to play videos recorded by video endpoint.

  Under modify records, I don't see an option or the option 'Make check-in available for play on the endpoints '.

  Referring on the Administrator's guide TCS it is said that "If this box is not on the page of registration of amendment, a site Content Server Manager has not configured the prefixes necessary to an alias of reading E.164 and H.323 reading ID to communicate with a site manager for more information. What does that mean?

  And where I can configure the reading reading alias/H323 ID?

  The TCS is registered as SIP and H323 (E.164) on the control of VCS.

  Recorded content have been updated with the recording of "publish".

  Thank you very much for the help.

  Best regards

  Acevirgil

  You must do the following:

  Key 'Premium résolution' option must be installed.

  Record configuration, see the Site settings, such as 'Bridge', not 'Terminal '.

  

  Enter the prefixes to use for recording, and also for playback, it may not be the same.

  Note that prefix of reading options will be unavailable unless the resolution option key Premium is installed.

  Also note the playback using the SIP is not supported at this stage.

• Conductor of telepresence on dial

  Hey guys,.

  I'm running into a problem where I can not the conductor of telepresence to dial on a TCS alias record.  I configured a location and a car participant made up, but when I have 2 people to participate in the Conference I never see the driver dial a number in the alias of the record.  I have checked the VCS logs and see nothing.  I'm sure I'm missing something stupid, but any help would be appreciated.  This is a new installation of net.

  Looks like you have a misconfigured port somewhere check your settings bridge conference Chief of Orchestra and conductor in your VCS area, make sure that all ports that you use match as well as the Protocol. The logs show that you use TLS, so you'll want to port 5061.

• Conductor BBFRR planned Conference in TMS - granularity alias missing

  Hi all

  I've been supported configuration for regular calls of telepresence with driver X2.1 and TMS 14.2.2.

  Everything is fine - the only thing miss me, and I wonder about is regex support to the boss of the Alias in aliases for telepresence driver tab in TMS.

  The only variable that actually "is" is the % sign. It corresponds to the 5 channels of digit numbers starting with 10000.

  Is it possible to use 'normal' regexes here as in CUCM bosses or VCS search rules?

  I wish I could write an E.164 range has for example, as [email protected] / * / or

  40955511\[email protected] / * / -while I have 100 alias in this form.

  So far, all my efforts proved fruitless, as everything that I entered as a model of Alias, ends with a completely ridicilous regular expression on the far right, which makes me think of nothing is supported except the % sign. A way to change or modify it?

  Support of all thoughts of eut or TAC?

  Anyone with a similar experience?

  If it doesn't "stick" I guess I'll have to find an exotic way to the use of models of translation.

  Another question:

  With BBFRR, this alias tab alias PTC Conference is one that is driven by XML endpoint?

  Thank you

  Hi Mihail,

  In TMS 14.1 and 14.2, it is hard coded as '%' grows to 10000. However, this was changed to 14.3, which will allow us to release later in July. The draft of 14.3 release notes:

• 5320 MCU software update 3.1 TS

  We currently have 5320 MCU running version 4.5 (1.45). I see that Cisco offers code TelePresence MCU server:

  http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/support/conferencing/Telepresence-MCU-5320/model.html#releasenotes ~ rdtab1

  Looking at the release notes is not very clear if when running 3.1 GST in MCU we will lose the ability to "Téléprésence MCU" in CUCM to use this 5320 MCU for Ad - hoc conferences.

  I know that GST 3.1 does not offer this possibility, but if you look at the file name for the MCU is cisco_ts_3.1_1.98_for_mcu_5300.zip (32,04 MB) vs GST 3.1 cisco_ts8700_3.1_1.98.zip (26,24 MB)

  Thank you

  If you upgrade your 5320 MCU with the telepresence server migration software, it will transform the MCU in a server of telepresence for all functions and features will be a telepresence server and not a MCU.  See the Software of TS running on MCU 5300 Series installation guide on how to convert your MCU to a telepresence server, if you are interested.

  Here are two good discussions comparing platforms MCU and telepresence server, one of them specifically on migration from one to the other.

  What-difference-between-MCU-Cisco-Telepresence-Server

  Why-Replace-MSE-8510-MCU-44-Telepresence-Server-31

  The cisco_ts_3.1_1.98_for_mcu_5300 software is for a series of 5300 MCU migrating to a server of telepresence.  The cisco_ts8700_3.1_1.98 software is specifically for the hardware already running a TP server software, such as the various servers of telepresence models listed here, this includes MCUs migrated to the server TP as the 5300 MCU to MCU MSE 8510 series software.

• TCS wrong password when adding from MSD

  I have a problem when adding the TCS on the MSDS. MSD does not accept the password. I used the same admin for the CHT password when you access the web interface.

  TCS - tms.jpg

  

  Any clue?

  Thanks in advance.

  TMS uses the TCS API to communicate with the server, you must set a password for this account in the CHT under management > Configuration > Site settings.  See the administration of CHT Guide for detailed instructions, note this guide the administrator for version S7.0, but the configuration is the same for all versions of the TCS.

• Purge of a MCU

  If I serve a TMS MCU in intend to add it again later. How will this affect conferences scheduled in TMS using the MCU to connect endpoints of 3 or more?

  Yes, you need to rebuild all of the conferences where this MCU is the host.  Each system added in TMS receives a unique ID in the database, when you add in TMS it is going to get a different ID and does not retain the ID he once had.  So that the MCU you purge will appear as "Deleted the system" in every conference there was once a host, unless you go through and Add again and the process of removing the old MCU deleted.

  Why do you want to purge and then add it again?
