Configuring Syslog Receiver on Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Cisco Prime Unified Operations Manager has enhanced Cisco Unified Communications Manager fault monitoring
by supporting integration with Cisco Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT). To enable this integration, you must add
the syslog receiver from the Communications Manager’s serviceability web page. For detailed procedures, see the
Cisco Prime Unified Operations Manager, located on Cisco.com at
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6535/products_user_guide_list.html
.
Voice Gateway and MGCP
In order for Operations Manager to collect performance data on Cisco MGCP Voice Gateway, the gateway
associated call agent (Cisco Unified Communications Manager) should also be managed using Operations
Manager. Also for Operations Manager to discover Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) capability for cases
such as MGCP VOIP Service, PRI Backhauling, and Signaling System 7 (SS7) signaling, Cisco MGCP Voice
Gateway application should be running on Cisco IOS Software 12.4(16.10), 12.4(16.10)T, or later.
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express and SRST
For Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express and SRST, the latest Cisco IOS MIBs (CISCO-CCME-MIB
and CISCO-SRST-MIB) are required. This CISCO-CCME-MIB and CISCO-SRST-MIB were introduced with Cisco
IOS Software Release 12.4(4) T and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express 3.4 and SRST 3.4. Unless
noted otherwise, subsequent releases of that Cisco IOS Software release train also support these MIBs.
Go to Cisco.com and download the latest Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express and Cisco IOS
Software for SRST, which supports new SNMP MIBs specific to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express
and SRST and their associated phones (available at
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/ip-key
).
If you are running Cisco Unified Communications Manager 4.0 (or later) and it has an SRST configured, it will
appear in the topology along with the cluster. Operations Manager does not put it in the SRST device folder, but
lists it under the associated cluster. This is independent of whether or not the MIB implementation is available on
the router.
Cisco Unity
For Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Connection, the appropriate Remote Serviceability Kit (RSK) must be installed for
Operations Manager to manage them properly. You can load the RSK from
http://www.ciscounitytools.com/
. Cisco
Unity Connection 7.x and later does not need RSK installation.
For Cisco Unity, the Event Monitoring Service must be configured to send the traps to Operations Manager. Event
Monitoring Service should already be installed if the Remote Serviceability Kit is installed. The events supported
through Event Monitoring Service trap in Operations Manager 9.0 are HardDiskError, OutOfDiskSpace, and
ExchangeLogonFailed.
Cisco Unity Connection must be configured to send the syslogs to Operations Manager. Operations Manager will
be unable to collect the correct monitoring information if it cannot resolve the name using DNS for Unity
Connection. You must verify that Unity Connection instances are resolvable in DNS.
Cisco Unity Express
You need to add the IP address of the Cisco Unity Express device to the Operations Manager server as if the
Cisco Unity Express device is a separate device. Cisco Unity Express has its own SNMP agent and management
IP address. Adding Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express does not automatically make Operations
Manager aware of Cisco Unity Express.
