Hi,


it might be strange, I have worked lot on call handling, but i did not get your question, what is this call accounting application, is it by cisco or your prioprity, do you want to trace no of call into some database, can you explain in some detail, then i may be able to help you.

Subject: New Message from John Gordon in Cisco Developer Network Partner - CDN Program Questions: CUCM testing environment


John Gordon has created a new message in the forum "CDN Program Questions":

--------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
 
We recently joined the CDN and are looking to interface our call accounting application with the CUCM database. I am looking for info on setting up a test environemnt and am totaly confused with what we need to make this happen. Is it just going to be some software we load on a pc or do we need to purchase an actual call manager configuration?
 
Has anyone done something like this? Or am I going about it in the wrong way?
 
Thanks.
 
John

In order to query provisioning/configuration data in UCM as you describe - users/devices/DNs, etc. - you will want to look at the AXL SOAP API:
 
http://developer.cisco.com/web/axl/docs
 
To get started with this API at minimum you will need an instance of UC Manager - here is the Getting Started page for AXL:
 
http://developer.cisco.com/web/axl/start
 
If you have already developed a UCM CDR application I would assume you have a UCM instance and you can just enable the AXL API service on it and start using it.  If not, the simplest scenario is to obtain the UCM installation media via the UC NFR kit (see Getting Started) above, and install it into a VMWare virtual machine.  UCM is officially supported for production use only on specific Cisco UCS servers running specific versions of VMWare, but it is known to run on any modern version of VMWare (including the free versions), which should be suitable for basic AXL development.
 
If you are testing for high scalability, cluster/failover support, etc. in support of large deployments you may need to eventually consider provisioning a hardware-based UCM lab - CDN partner hardware/software discount program can help.

Yes, that looks like the 8.6 NFR bundle link.
 
The AXL SQL Toolkit contains the actual AXL WSDL/schema files and some Java example code.  This file is actually downloaded from the UCM instance itself via the administrative web pages under Application/Plugins.

David,

One more question regarding the 8.6 NFR bundle. Once it is installed does it create the call manager database or is there something else that we will need?

Thanks again.
John

Thanks again David.
