Installing Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Server
7. Ensure that the machine date, time and time zone are correct, and that they match those on the
Publisher machine. Both servers must be in the same time zone to ensure that any daylight-saving
time changes occur simultaneously. If they are not in the same time zone, the operator console will
be unable to automatically reconnect to the Publisher when it recovers from failure.
8. If you have a firewall on the Subscriber server, configure Firewall Exceptions for the same
applications and ports as described for the Publisher server in step 4.
Note When you configure an exception, you should also configure its scope settings; these define which
computers are allowed to send traffic for an exception. Choose the scope appropriate to your network
setting.
9. Install the Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server on the Subscriber, as described in
Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Server Installation Procedure, page 5-8.
Note The following points:
• Database replication is uninstalled automatically during Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced
server installation, upgrade or uninstallation. If the replication uninstall does not succeed at the first
attempt, you are prompted to retry it or abort it.
• When installing or uninstalling resilient server software, both the Publisher and Subscriber server
machines must be running. If either machine is turned off or inaccessible, the install or uninstall may
fail.
• If the Publisher server software gets uninstalled, the Subscriber server's software link with the
Publisher server gets broken. When you reinstall the Publisher server software you must then
reinstall the Subscriber server software to restore the link.
Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced Server Installation Procedure
Note If you are installing a resilient system, you must perform this installation procedure on both the Publisher
and Subscriber servers. You must have installed SQL Server Standard or Enterprise on the Publisher.
To install a Cisco Unified Attendant Console Advanced server:
Step 1 Log in to the machine hosting the server, using a login with local administrator rights.
Step 2 Browse to the folder where the downloaded installation files are saved.
Step 3 Double-click the setup program.
The Wizard is prepared and you are presented with the Welcome screen.
Note If they are not already installed, all required third-party applications are now automatically installed,
including the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, and Microsoft SQL Server Express (if you have no SQL
Server installed). These installations may take several minutes. You are prompted to restart your
computer afterwards.
