Import Directory URIs from a non-ILS system
Draft comment: Texoma - small changes due to renaming of GUI menu items
Follow this procedure if you are running the Intercluster Lookup Service (ILS) on your local cluster and you
want to import directory URIs from a CSV file for a call control system that is not running ILS, such as a
Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS), or a third-party call control system.
To perform this procedure, the Cisco Bulk Provisioning Service must be running on the local cluster, which
must be configured as a hub cluster in an ILS network. After you import the catalog into Cisco Unified
Communications Manager, ILS replicates the imported catalog to the other clusters in the ILS network.
Within Cisco Unified CM Administration, you can enter directory URIs with embedded double quotes or
commas. However, when you use Bulk Administration to import a CSV file that contains directory URIs
with embedded double quotes and commas, you must use enclose the entire directory URI in double quotes
and escape the embedded double quotes with a double quote. For example, a directory URI of
Jared,"Jerry",[e-mail] must be input as "Jared,""Jerry"",[e-mail]" in the CSV file.
