This chapter describes procedure for installing the Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller configuration tool application.
The installer should be familiar with UNIX commands, Windows NT servers, and basic network administration activities.
Before you install the Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller configuration tool, use this checklist to ensure you have everything you need for a smooth installation. Any deviation from the specified hardware and software requirements could degrade the performance of the configuration tool or prevent it from operating.
Step 1 Close the Orbix Web server by closing the DOS windows: C:\Lightspeed\OrbixWeb\bin\orbixd.exe, C:\Lightspeed\OrbixNames\bin\ns.exe, and the window used to run server.bat. Close the Orbix Web server first:
(a) Press Ctrl-c.
(b) Answer Yes to the server screen prompts. The other windows will also close.
Step 2 Insert the Configuration Tool CD-ROM. From the Start menu select Run. Type drive:\Setup; this invokes the InstallShield setup. (InstallShield is an installation toolkit developed by InstallShield Software Corporation.)
Follow the instructions on your screen.
Step 3 Insert the Configuration Tool - Utilities CD-ROM. From the Start menu select Run. Type cd drive:\Setup; this invokes the InstallShield setup. This CD installs the Java and Orbix applications.
Follow the instructions on your screen.
If this is the first time you have installed the Configuration Tool, you now need to set up your Web server (C:\Eng\TransPath) and FTP server (C:\Turnover\install).
Step 1 Copy the default database:
(a) Go to the C:\LightSpeed\TransPathCM\database directory.
(b) Copy the database file default.mdb to lpt.mdb.
Step 2 Configure the ODBC data source:
(a) From the Start menu, select Settings, then Control Panel, then ODBC (32 bit).
(b) Select Add under the System DSN tab.
(c) Double-click on Microsoft Access Driver.
(d) Press Select in the database section.
(e) Browse to the directory C:\LightSpeed\TransPathCM\database\lpt.mdb.
(f) Enter the DataSource name TP2000.
(g) Click on Options and set the buffer size to 4096 to optimize system performance.
Step 3 Configure Microsoft Internet Server (first the WWW server, then the FTP server):
(a) Configure your WWW server:
(b) Configure your FTP server:
Step 4 Edit the HTML Web page:
(a) Go to C:\LightSpeed\TransPathCM\applet\default.html.
(b) Use a file editor such as WordPad to modify PARAM NAME = host, VALUE = <host domain name of the NT server>. For example,
PARAM NAME = host, VALUE = myhost.cisco.com
Step 5 Edit the server.bat file:
(a) Go to C:\LightSpeed\server.bat.
(b) Use a file editor such as WordPad to modify IT_LOCAL_HOST = <host NT workstation name>. For example: IT_LOCAL_HOST = myhost.
(c) Modify IT_LOCAL_DOMAIN = <NT workstation server name>. For example: IT_LOCAL_DOMAIN = cisco.com.
C:\Lightspeed\Java\bin\java LightSpeedCM.CMLightSpeedServer %IT_LOCAL_HOST% 8000 %DATASOURCE% %LS_CONFIG_PATH%\TransPathCM\database 20.
(d) If desired, make a windows shortcut to server.bat and put it on the Windows NT desktop.
Your configuration is installed with a basic default database that you will modify as you configure your Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller. This original database file should be saved before you begin your configuration:
To use your system's server name, you will need to modify two files, the default.html and server.bat, from their default settings.
The following information provides steps to follow to upgrade your software when a new version is released. When you install an upgrade, first you uninstall the Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller configuration tool; then you upgrade the data stored in your database.
To uninstall the configuration tool, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Close the DOS prompts and the Orbix Web server by pressing Ctrl-c and answering Yes to all screen prompts.
Step 2 Uninstall the Configuration Tool.
(a) In settings, select Control Panel.
(b) Double-click on Add/Remove Programs.
(c) Browse through the list of programs and select TransPath Configuration Tool.
(d) Click on Add/Remove.
(e) Click on OK.
Step 3 Uninstall the configuration tool utilities.
(a) In settings, select Control Panel.
(b) Double-click on Add/Remove Programs.
(c) Browse through the list of programs and select TransPath Configuration Tool-Utilities.
(d) Click on Add/Remove.
(e) Click on OK.
If you are installing an upgrade, after you uninstall the Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller configuration tool, you will want to have the configuration tool perform a cold start.
Step 1 Go to directory C:\Lightspeed\OrbixWeb\config\Naming Repository.
Step 2 Delete the files NC-0 and root.
After you uninstall the Cisco Software Release 4 telephony controller configuration tool, you upgrade the data stored in your database. The database files are in the directory Lightspeed/TransPathCM/database.
Before you migrate your database:
Now you are ready to migrate your database. You will use a program located in Lightspeed/TransPathCM/MigrateDB.
If you are upgrading your version of a VSC, you will run a batch file.
![]() | Caution Any time you perform an upgrade, watch the screen as your DOS command executes. If you see an error message (for example, No more files will be processed, consult your technical help), stop and copy the screen, then report all the information to your technical help. If you see the message Can't open any more tables, you can re-run the Migrate script. |
Step 1 Go to the DOS prompt.
Step 2 Change directory to C:\Lightspeed\TransPathCM\MigrateDB.
Step 3 Click on migrate.bat and press Enter.
Step 4 Exit the migrate program.
