TASK 1: UCCX 8 .0 Install
There are several stages to the installation of UCCX. The first requires the administrator to answer a series of questions. The second involves the actual install. During the install there are again four notable
stages that the install process will go through. The first of these is the install of the base OS. The second
is the install of the Informix database and the third is the install of UCCX and the fourth and final stage is
the Post - Installation steps. All of these steps will require several hours to comp lete. During the install for the lab it was noted that the install took approximately 2.5 hours.
Installation Information Gathering
The following steps out line the information gathering before the installation completes. If the participant is already fa miliar with the appliance version of CUCM then this will be very familiar territory.
Before installing Cisco Unified Contact Center Express gather information for each server being installed in
the cluster and obtain a print out of the data.
Before You Beg in
Use Table 1 to record the information about your Cisco Unified Contact Center Express server. The
information in the BLUE Bold type is what will be used in the lab. The last column in the table shows
whether a field can be changed after installation, and if so, whether you can change it through Operating
System Administration or through the Command Line Interface (CLI).
You cannot change some of the fields after installation without reinstalling the software, so ensure that
you enter the values you re quire.
Because some fields are optional, they may not be relevant to your configuration. For example, you may
choose not to set up an SMTP host.

How to License Your New UCCX 8.0 Platform
A few word s
about
licensing
A UCCX Node Locked license will need to be obtained before proceeding with the
Initial Configuration Wizard. With the release of UC System 8.0 a change is being m ade to the MAC address information that is used to obtain a license file . In place of
using the hardware MAC address, a Licens e MAC is generated during the installation
process . This License MAC along with your PAK (which you will receive with your media
kit) will be requested at http://www.cisco.com/go/license to generate your license file. More information can be obtained by reviewing the Cisco Unified Contact Center Install
Guide.
There are several pieces of information that are used to generate License MAC such as:
Time zone
NTP server 1 (or 'none') NIC speed (or 'auto')
Hostname
IP Address (or 'dhcp') , IP Mask (or 'dhcp') , Gateway Address (or 'dhcp')
Primary DNS (or 'dhcp') SMTP server (or 'none')
Certificate Information (Organization, Unit , Location , State , Country)
Where do I find the
Licensing
MAC?
The licensing MAC can be obtained via C ommand Line Interface (CLI) or via the GUI
interface.
Finding the License MAC via CLI
Step 1: To l og into the CLI on the workstation desktop double click the putty.exe icon
to connect via SSH into the UCCX platform .
Step 2: Click Yes on the PuTTY Security Alert popup.
Step 3: Enter in the IP address of the UCCX platform 10.1.100.110 . Leave the remaining
default setti ngs.
Step 4: Click Open .
Step 5: Login with:
a. Username Administrator
b. Password Cisc0123
If the login fails close the putty.exe window and try launching it again.
http://www.cisco.com/go/licenseCisco Unified Contact Center Express 8.0 PBT Lab Cisco Confidential Page 15 of 50
Step 6: At the admin: prompt type in the following command: show status
Step 7: Record the License MAC and along with the PAK make the license request at
http://www.cisco.com/go/licensing .
Step 8: Keep this window open.
Finding the License MAC via the GUI
Step 9: Browse to the GUI Administration pages.
https://10.1.100.110/appadmin
Step 10: From the Navigation drop down list on the right side select Cisco Unified OS
Administration and click Go .
Note: It is not necessary to login first to the Cisco Unified UCCX Administration pages before loggi ng into
the OS Administration pages. These two logins are independent of each other.
Step 11: Login with the OS (CLI)
username and password:
a. Username
Administrator
b. Password Cisc0123
Step 12: From the main menus select Show System .

Creating the Application Admi nistration Account
Once the UCCX System is installed and before logging into AppAdmin create or designate an already
established user account on CUCM as the new AppAdmin account.
These steps are already completed for you in the lab.
Step 1: From the Agent 1 PC open IE and browse to the CUCM Admin pages at
https://10.1.100.100/ccmadmin .
Step 2: Click Yes on the Security Popup Warning window.
Note : With the version of CUCM 8.0 being used in the lab the initial CUCM Admin pag e
takes a few minutes to load. Please be patient.
Step 3: Login with the following credentials :
a. Username Administrator
b. Password Cisc0123
Step 4: From the main menus select User Management End User .
Step 5: Click Add New .
Step 6: Create the new AppAdmin user with the following se ttings:
a. User ID uccxAdmin
b. Password and Confirm Password Cisc0123
c. PIN and Confirm PIN 12345
d. Last name Administrator
e. First name UCCX
Step 7: Click Save .
Step 8: Minimize the CUCM web page.

Initial Configuration Wizard
The installation is now complete and 10
Administr ation pages. The first pages that come up will be the Initial Configuration Wizard. Make the
selections that will reflect the installation.
Step 1: Return to the SSH session of the UCCX server. (putty.exe session.)
Step 2: Check to see if the Cisco Security Agent (CSA) is disabled. At the admin: prompt
Step 3: At the admin: prompt type in the following command: utils csa disable
What is this? This command disables the Cisco Security Agent running on the server platform.
Why am I doing this?
This needs to be done before the i nitial wizard is run as the Security Agent can
interfere with the initial configur ation of the server. The service can be re started
again using the utils csa enable command.
Step 4: Acknowledge the system reboot by typing yes when requested.
Step 5: Close the SSH sessi on and wait 15 min utes before continuing on with the next step .
Step 6: When the server has restarted, l aunch IE and browse to the following address

What about OS Control?
OS and System control can be done from two locations. The f irst is from the UCCX GUI. The second is
from the Command Line Interface (CLI) . Which interface is going to be used will depend entirely on the
comfort level of the person administering the system. Just remember CLI access is not necessary to
maintain the UCCX server(s). What can be done via CLI can also be done via the GUI interface. Such as changing a h ostname or even an IP address.
Step 1: From the Navigation menu select Cisco Unified Serviceability and Click Go.

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