Quick find behavior when Sametime server uses Domino LDAP
The "quick find" option in UIM should be used differently if UIM is connected to a server that uses Domino
LDAP. To find a name using the quick find option, type the whole name to get the requested result;
typing only a few characters of the name is not enough.
STReflector Service not listed in Admin Services overview list
When you choose the "Administer the Server" link on a Sametime 7.5 server, you'll see a list of processes
running on the server; the STReflector service is not listed there.
To verify if the STReflector process is actually running on the server, go to the Windows task manager,
and look for the "streflector.exe" task in the list. If it is listed there, the service is running.
You can also choose Administrative Tools -> Services from the Control Panel, and see the "ST Reflector"
service listed there with the status "Started". Similarly for UNIX, obtain the list of running processes on
the server and verify that streflector is one of them.
Telephony Services unavailable after upgrading service provider
An Avaya Service Provider upgrade may fail in the following scenario:
1) Start out with Sametime 7.0 + Telephony Toolkit + Avaya Service Provider 7.0
2) Upgrade to Sametime 7.5
3) Upgrade to Avaya Service Provider 7.5
In this case, telephony services may fail to start. A user may see an error message such as
"Configuration Lookup Failed" when trying to start
a meeting (meetings will continue to work correctly, but no telephony services will be available). This
occurs because the Sametime 7.5 upgrade
overwrites some registry values that are needed for initializing telephony services. When the telephony
upgrade is performed, necessary actions will not be performed to restore these registry values. If you
have a 7.0 Avaya Service Provider installed and wish to
upgrade it, you must first uninstall the existing service provider. If you wish to also upgrade from
Sametime 7.0 to Sametime 7.5, you must install
the new service provider after Sametime has been upgraded.
The steps for upgrading from
Sametime 7.0 + Avaya Service Provider 7.0 to Avaya Service Provider 7.5
are below:
1. Back up <Domino bin dir>/
conference-adapter-configuration.xml
and <Domino bin dir>/dial-plan.xml
2. Uninstall the service provider
3. Upgrade to Sametime 7.5
4. Install the new service provider
5. Reconfigure the service provider using your backups from (1)
