Use these procedures to install the External Call History (ECH) feature 
package. 

3

When a CMS customer is using ECH in an HA environment, the ECH 
software should be installed on both the primary and secondary servers. 
The recommended practice for running ECH on the HA servers depends 
on the customer-specific factors:

if the customer is using ECH in support of customized reporting  
features implemented by the Lucent Professional Services 
Organization (PSO), ECH should be active on both the primary and 
secondary features

if the customer is not using ECH in support of customized reporting  
features implemented by PSO, the ECH software should be active 
on the primary server and turned off on the secondary server

3

The customer must have a separate computer for the storage and 
reporting of call records.

Both the storage machine and the CMS machine must be 
administered in 

UNIX-to-UNIX copy (UUCP).

If the storage machine is not running the 

UNIX system, use a DOS 

version of UUCP.

Verify that you are logged in as 

root.

The computer must be in run-level 3 (check this with the command

 

who -r

).

All file systems must be mounted.

CMS must be turned off.

Once the External Call History package is installed, you will no 
longer be able to access any call record data from CMS. For more 
information about administering the UUCP link port on an NTS,
