Additional Optional Updates

ASG Plugin
The ASG Plugin is a serviceability application which enables secure access to the server when
installed using a challenge-response mechanism. This update removes the presence of
unnecessary accounts which are given permission to access the files in the applications directory.
This effectively restricts access to the applications files to administrator users only.
The ASG Plugin currently placed on the server, not installed, does not have this patch and if
required this version can be downloaded and placed on the server instead of the incumbent
version.
This is optional in that only if you wish to install and use this plugin should it be installed;
otherwise it is not required for normal Contact Center operations

ASGPlugin4WindowsX64.zip 76aaa6844a4863a86884d19a0b409558
SNMP Trap Configuration File

An SNMP Trap Configuration File (.cnf) is delivered containing the Avaya recommended events for
SNMP capture. The configuration file can be imported into the SNMP Event Translator that is
available after installing SNMP on the Windows Server 2012 R2. SNMP traps will be automatically
generated and forwarded to the configured NMS system for all Event Viewer events that have a
match in the configuration file.
The SNMP Trap Configuration File can be imported into the SNMP Event Translator using
evntcmd.exe from the command prompt. A restart of the SNMP service is required after which the
file content can be viewed using the SNMP Event Translator GUI (evntwin.exe). Exact details for
the procedure are available in Windows Server 2012 R2 documentation.
The SNMP Trap Configuration File is available for download from the support site.
This is optional in that it should only be imported if you wish to forward SNMP traps to an NMS
system for treatment or monitoring. Otherwise it is not required for normal Contact Center
operations.
Note: As detailed in the ACCS deployment guide, SNMP should be installed on the Windows Server
2012 R2 prior to deployment of the ACCS application.

PLATFORM VENDOR INDEPENDENCE (PVI)

Hardware Requirements
For Single Server deployments (Voice and Multimedia with Avaya Media Server on a physical
platform) a Gigabit Network Adapter is required that supports Receive Side Scaling (RSS) with 4
RSS queues.
Network Adapter known issues

There is currently an open issue with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 with Broadcom
NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (BCM5720) that can result in Windows OS kernel crash for
Single Server deployments. The bug resides in Microsoft’s pacer.sys (QoS packet scheduler) and is
exposed by the Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Network Adapter (BCM5720) when RSS is enabled
and configured for more than 1 queue. This issue has only been found with Broadcom NetXtreme
Gigabit Ethernet Adapter and (specifically the Broadcom 5720 Adapter). The issue has been
accepted by Microsoft and they are working on a fix.

DEPLOYMENT & CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
Pre-Installation Considerations
Windows Automatic Maintenance

Windows Server 2012 R2 provides a centralized mechanism for maintaining the operating system.
This feature is called Automatic Maintenance, and is used to carry out tasks such as hard disk
defragmentation and application of Microsoft Windows updates among others.
This mechanism can sometimes interfere with the deployment of Contact Center software,
resulting in failed installations. It is recommended that this feature be disabled for the duration of
Contact Center software installs.
To disable Automatic Maintenance:

1. Start – Run ‘Taskschd.msc’
2. In the Task Scheduler Library browse to Microsoft – Windows – TaskScheduler
3. Select the Idle Maintenance task, right-click and choose ‘Disable’
4. Select the Regular Maintenance task, right-click and choose ‘Disable’
5. Alternatively, modify the properties of the Regular Maintenance task and ensure it is not
set to run during your installation maintenance window.
After installation is complete you may re-enable Automatic Maintenance

To enable Automatic Maintenance:
1. Start – Run ‘Taskschd.msc’
2. In the Task Scheduler Library browse to Microsoft – Windows – TaskScheduler
3. Select the Idle Maintenance task, right-click and choose ‘Enable’
4. Select the Regular Maintenance task, right-click and choose ‘Disable’

Release Notes
Installation
New Installations
Install-time Patching
Install-time patching is mandatory for Avaya Contact Center Select software deployments using
the provided DVD media.
Mandatory Execution of Ignition Wizard – Patch Deployments

After deployment of the ACCS software using the DVD installer, if the Ignition Wizard process is
deferred, it will not be possible to install Patches (DPs) either via Update Manager or manually
(double-clicking on the installer file). Successful execution of the Ignition Wizard prior to applying
Patches to the system is mandatory.
This does not affect the removal or reinstallation of ACCS Release Packs, only ACCS Patches (DPs).
System Backup after Ignition (IMPORTANT)

A full ACCS backup must be taken after the ignition process has completed and before the system
is commissioned or used.
This is important for systems that will be used as migration targets. The CCMA data can only be
migrated to a system that does not contain any customer data. The CCMA migration will fail if the
system is found to contain data other than what was injected by the Ignition Wizard.
If the CCMA migration fails in this way, the solution is to go back to the post-ignition backup or re-
install the system.
Page 17
Release Notes
Upgrades
Important: Direct upgrades from 7.0.0.0 and 7.0.0.1 to 7.0.2.0 are not supported.
You must upgrade from 7.0.0.x to 7.0.1.x first, before upgrading to 7.0.2.0
Avaya Release Pack Installer

A new application is provided within the Avaya Aura® Contact Center Release Pack bundle called
the Avaya Release Pack Installer (RPI). This application provides an automated method of updating
existing Avaya Aura® Contact Center 7.x software and must be used when upgrading from to this
software release.
The application will perform the following actions

1. remove all installed ACCS 7.0.1.x Product Updates (Feature Pack/Service Packs and
Patches)
2. remove all unwanted ACCS Third Party software
3. install required Third Party Software for the release
4. install the latest ACCS software from within the release pack bundle
Application Location:
The Avaya Release Pack Installer is contained within the Release Pack bundle in folder
‘AvayaReleasePackInstaller’. The application supports the installation of Generally Available Patch
bundle content. Please note, the Avaya Release Pack Installer is run via the setup.exe and NOT the
AvayaReleasePackInstaller.exe.
Generally Available Patch Bundle Installation

When the setup.exe is launched, if you wish to install Generally Available Patch Bundle content,
you should select the appropriate radio button option.
If you choose to proceed without installing GA Patch content, the Update Manager application
must be used to install this patch content at a later time.
To install Patch bundle content using the Avaya Release Pack Installer application, the complete
ProductUpdates folder from within the GA Patch bundle must be copied locally. The contents of
this folder should not be modified e.g. the ReleasePackManifest.xml must not be moved to
another location.
Limited Patch Installation

The Avaya Release Pack Installer application does not support the installation of limited patches.
To deploy limited patches the Update Manager application must be used.
Instructions:
1. Download the ACCS Release Pack Bundle to your local system and unzip
2. Download all available GA Patch Bundles for this release to your local system
3. Unzip each GA Patch bundle separately into a folder reflecting the patch bundle zip name
4. When all individual GA Patch Bundles are extracted into their respective folders, copy each
folder into a single parent folder called ‘GA Patch ProductUpdates’
5. Launch the Avaya Release Pack Installer setup.exe from folder ‘AvayaReleasePackInstaller’
which is located within the Release Pack bundle extracted in step 1 above
Page 18
Release Notes
6. When available, choose the option to install GA Patches and browse to the extracted Patch
Bundle ‘GA Patch ProductUpdates’ folder from step 4 above
7. Continue installation…
Note: If upgrading, the Avaya Contact Center Select Update Manager application resident on the
system will fail to install the ACCS 7.0.2.0 Release Pack software. This is due to third party software
changes between ACCS 7.0.1.x, and ACCS 7.0.2.0.
Note: It is not possible to install Generally Available patch (DP) content until the Ignition Wizard
has been run successfully.

Multimedia Prerequisites for server migration

This is only applicable to users migrating to new servers and keeping the same server names:
In this scenario users must select the same Multimedia Database Drive during the ACCS 7.0 install
as contained in Backup. If post install, users migrate a database backup from a previous version of
AACS and the Multimedia Database drive defined in the backup does not match the Multimedia
Database drive selected during the 7.0 install users will be unable to open attachments that were
restored from the backup.

SECURITY INFORMATION
Avaya Contact Center Select security certificate migration considerations
Migrating security custom security certificates has caveats that require planning and consideration
before beginning the process.
Migration from 6.4 to 7.x

Due to the changes made in ACCS 7.x release regarding improved security stance, migration of the
ACCS 6.4 certificate store to ACCS 7.x or higher is not possible.
The only path available when moving to ACCS 7.x from ACCS 6.4 is the creation of a new store on
the ACCS 7.x system, the signing of the certificate signing request (CSR) by a selected Certificate
Authority and the importing of these new security certificates into the new store.
No elements of the security store from ACCS 6.4 can be migrated to ACCS 7.x
Migrating ACCS Security Store for ACCS 7.0 to 7.x.x

The following sections are applicable to migrations from 7.0 to later versions only.
Note: ACCS 7.0 and ACCS 7.0.1 come with the default store as standard and as such does not need
to be migrated from previous releases. Please be advised this default store is not to be used in a
production environment and is designed to be used in a test/configuration only situation.
Name of Server is important

When intending to reuse existing security certificates on a new system then the receiving system
will have to have the exact name as the donor system otherwise the security certificate will not
match the underlying server. If the security certificate and underlying server name do not match,
then warnings and errors will be presented to the user, when attempting to use this security
certificate to establish a secure connection.
Note
The recommendation is that, if possible, new security certificates be generated for the
new system rather than reuse security certificates from another system.
Restoring Certificate store to a new system

If the decision to reuse the security certificates then the migration of security certificates is a
manual process and requires that the security certificate store on the server be backed up using
the Security Manager Backup feature.
This will back up the necessary files required to be imported back in on the new system using the
Security Manager Restore feature.
The receiving system name must be the same as the donor system otherwise errors will occur
when attempting to use the security certificates to establish a secure connection.
Note
The backed up files will be modified if coming from a release prior to 7.0 during the restore
process so it is recommended that you keep a copy of the original backed up files.
See Appendix C – Store Maintenance for details on backing up and restoring the certificate store.
Avaya Aura® Contact Center 7.0.2 fresh installations do not provide the Out
of The Box (OTB) security store.
Page 23
Release Notes
From release 7.0.2.0 fresh installations of the solution will not provide the default security store
with default security certificates.
Fresh installations
For fresh installs the customer will have to create a custom security store for the server during the
Ignition Wizard security configuration stage to enable the On by Default and secure the server and
services as was provided automatically in previous releases.
If the Ignition Wizard security configuration is not completed fully then upon completion of the
Ignition Wizard phase and reboot of the server, the services will not be secure and if IPO has not
been configured to communicate over TCP then the TAPID link to IPO will not be operational as it
will expect a secure connection only.
Ignition Wizard has been enhanced to allow the creation and population of the contact center
security store during the configuration phase. If this is skipped then warnings will be given and
Security Manager (previously Security Manager) can be used to complete the creation and/or
population of the security store.
The transport type for connection to IPO from ACCS can now be selected to use TCP, the default is
TLS.
Upgrades
There is no impact on upgrades, if the OTB store is being used and is on the server, it remains
untouched.
TLS v1.2 as default level for TLS communication

Fresh installations
On fresh installations only, the default TLSv1 level enforced is TLS v1.2. This means that TLS v1.0
and TLS v1.1 protocol levels are disabled and are not available to be used in the solution or on the
underlying Windows 2012 R2 operating system.
Migrations
Migrations can be considered in the same area as fresh installations in that the default TLSv1 level
enforced is TLS v1.2.
Upgrades
On an upgrade where the feature pack is applied on an existing 7.0 release then there is no
enforcement of TLS v1.2 on the server. This is relevant only to the Windows operating system level
support of TLS versions.
For SIP traffic and Event Broker web services the enforcement of TLS v1.2 still applies and if these
levels need to be modified then please refer to the section “Resetting TLSv1 Levels”.
Page 24
Release Notes
In 7.0.1 the default TLSv1 level enforced is TLS v1.2. This means that TLS v1.0 and TLS v1.1 protocol
levels are disabled and are not available to be used in the solution or on the underlying Windows
2012 R2 operating system.
Resetting TLSv1 Levels

For upgrades this new TLS v1.2 default setting may have an impact on any legacy applications that
consume ACCS services that cannot support this level of TLSv1. To allow backward compatibility
with older releases and applications that consume ACCS services the TLSv1 level can be lowered to
reestablish functionality if found to be incompatible with the new TLSv1 level.
The general rule when setting the TLSv1 levels is shown in the table below
TLS Level Set TLS v1.0 available TLS v1.1 available TLS v1.2 available
1.0 Yes Yes Yes
1.1 No Yes Yes
1.2 No No Yes
When the TLS v1 level is set the general rule is any level under that set level is disabled and any
level above it is still available. It is configurable via Security Manager Security Configuration tab
How to change the TLSv1 levels

The new TLSv1 level settings can all be changed in the Security Manager application which can be
launched from the ACCS server.
In the Security Configuration Tab of the Security Manager application there are three drop boxes
which allow the user to lower the TLSv1 levels for the following application and services outlined in
the next section.
Services and Applications covered by new TLSv1 setting
The three main areas where this new setting covers are
 Windows operating system

 Web Traffic
 SIP Traffic
Windows operating system

This covers all of the windows operating system and any Microsoft based applications, such as IIS
for example.
This can be lowered to TLS v1.0 or TLS v1.1 if required via the Security Manager application.
If TLS v1.0 is set as default for example, then TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2 is still available.
Web Traffic
IIS
This is covered with the changes made to the underlying Windows Operating system. Which is also
the same setting configurable via the Security Manager Security Configuration tab.
Page 25
Release Notes
Tomcat
This web server is set to use TLS v1.2 only. It is currently not configurable.
All known applications that use Tomcat can operate at TLS v1.2 and thus no need to have an
option to enable lower protocols.
Lightweight/framework web application servers

Event Broker Web Service TLS v1 level can be set on the Security Manager application.
Page 26
Release Notes
SIP and CTI Traffic

This covers all SIP and CTI traffic to and from the ACCS server. This is configurable via Security
Manager Security Configuration tab.
For non-mandatory TLS SIP connections

The servers that can make up the solution may be configured to secure their connection to the
ACCS server and so below are the compatibility tables for the different versions that may be used
in the solution.
IP Office releases See Appendix C – IP Office releases TLSv1

releases and TLSv1 support
Known applications and services that cannot support TLS v1.2

There are applications and services which cannot support TLS v1.2 currently and a review of these
applications and services should be made to determine the course of action prior to moving to
7.0.1. The table below lists all known application and services that cannot support TLS v1.2
HDX / DIW connection to databases See Appendix C – HDX/DIW connection to

databases
Remote desktop See Appendix C – Remote Desktop
System Manager 7.0 See Appendix C – System Manager 7.0
SMB signing and Network-attached storage (NAS) devices
In this release SMB signing has been implemented and as such all connecting devices and
platforms will have to be able to support SMB signing otherwise access to devices that cannot
support the level of SMB signing in place on the Contact Center Server may become inaccessible.
This has been noted on older NAS devices where the current level of software cannot meet the
SMB signing requirements and access to these devices has been shown not to be possible.

Email Analyzer configuration

An English email analyzer (AlphanumericAnalyzer) is enabled by default for keyword analysis of
English Latin-1 character sets on the ACCS server. The email analyzer can be configured based on
language specific values specified in the following table:
Language Email Analyzer

French Change default SimpleAnalyzer to FrenchAnalyzer
German Change default SimpleAnalyzer to GermanAnalyzer
LA Spanish Change default SimpleAnalyzer to AlphanumericAnalyzer
Simplified Chinese Change default SimpleAnalyzer to ChineseAnalyzer
Brazilian Portuguese Change default SimpleAnalyzer to BrazilianAnalyzer
Russian Change default SimpleAnalyzer to RussianAnalyzer
Italian Change default SimpleAnalyzer to ItalianAnalyzer
Traditional Chinese Change default SimpleAnalyzer to ChineseAnalyzer
Japanese Change default SimpleAnalyzer to CJKAnalyzer
Korean Change default SimpleAnalyzer to CJKAnalyzer
The mailservice.properties file on the ACCS Server specifies which analyzer is enabled and lists all
supported analyzers in the comments.
This procedure can be used to enable a language specific email analyzer:

1. Stop the CCMM Email Manager service on the server.
2. Navigate to D:\Avaya\Contact Center\Multimedia Server\Server Applications\EMAIL.
3. Open mailservice.properties.
4. Change the properties of the file from read only to write available.
5. In the <box> search for the line mail.analyzer=AlphanumericAnalyzer.
6. Change mail.analyzer value to language specific value.
7. Start the CCMM Email Manager service on the server.
Email Analyzer Limitation 1 - Wildcard use (Asian) – Single Byte Routing

There is a limitation when the email analyzer is enabled for Asian languages. A problem arises
when routing with SINGLE BYTE characters in the keyword. Double byte keywords route
successfully. This limitation also applies for wildcards included in keywords.
To route a single byte keyword to a skillset, you must save the keyword as DOUBLE byte on the
server. For example to route the single byte keyword コプタto a skillset called EM_Test do the
following:
1) Create a DOUBLE byte keyword

 In the Multimedia Administrator, click the plus sign (+) next to Contact Center Multimedia, click the
plus sign next to E-mail Administration, and then double-click Keyword Groups.
 The Keyword Groups window appears.
 To create a new keyword group, click New.
 In the Name box, type a unique name for the keyword group (maximum 64 characters. This NAME
must be in English). E.g. “DoubleByteCoputa”
 In the Keyword box, type the word (in DOUBLE byte) you will be searching for.
E.g. “コプタ” Click Add.
The keyword is added to the list, and the keyword group is created. Click Save.
2) Create a Rule to route the keyword to a skillset

 Start the Rule Configuration Wizard.
Page 30
Release Notes
 On the Rule Configuration Wizard – Input Criteria window, under Available Keyword Groups, select a
keyword group you want to use for this rule. E.g. “DoubleByteCoputa”
 Click the black arrow to insert the keyword group name into the selection box.
 Click Next.
 In the Rule box, type the name for your rule. E.g. “DoubleByteCoputaRule”
 In the Skillset box, select a skillset for your rule. . E.g. “EM_Test”
 Click Save.
 Click Finish. Your rule is created with the keyword group.
rd
Note: This is a limitation of the 3 party creator of the analyzer, Lucene.
Email Analyzer Limitation 2 - Wildcard use (Asian) - Wildcard * and ? string position
There is a limitation when the email analyzer is enabled for Asian languages. Wildcard ‘?’ or ‘*’ can
only be used at the end of a keyword.
e.g. Wildcard use たば* is correct. Wildcard use た*た is not correct.
Note: To route the wildcard keyword successfully, the ‘*’ can be entered in either full-width or half
width. The ‘?’ can be entered in full-width only.

Troubleshooting
Detecting latest Language files

In case that client runs the English AAD and OCMT applications and does not pick up the language
files, then these files are now stored in the GAC (.Net cache) on the client PC. The .Net cache
(GAC) therefore, needs to be emptied on the client PC so the latest English and language files can
be taken from the server.
Note: If you install an updated Service pack or Design patch, the client still runs applications with
cached language files. The .Net cache (GAC) must be emptied, so the latest language files can be
taken from the server.
Emptying the .Net cache on the client PC running AAD and OCMT
Procedures such as uninstalling application and emptying the .Net cache require administrator
rights.
1. Close AAD and OCMT.
2. Click Add/Remove Programs.
3. Remove Avaya/Avaya Agent Desktop.
4. Navigate to C:\Documents and Setting\USERNAME\local settings\apps\ .
5. Delete the 2.0 folder.
6. Note: This folder may be hidden. If so, open Windows Explorer and click on Tools, Folder
options. Choose the View tab. Under Files and folders or Hidden files and folders, choose
to show hidden files and folders. Click Apply and click OK.
7. Start AAD to download the latest AAD files from the CCMM server.

Description Under certain error conditions, i.e. misconfiguration, some ACCS services
will not complete startup.
While in this error state remote desktop connection logins and local
console logins can fail with a “please wait” message.
Impact Inability to login through RDC of local console to ACCS server.
Workaround If this error condition is experienced a connection to the console should be
attempted. In the case of a physical sever deployment this would be the
physical keyboard and monitor connection to the server. In the case of
virtualized environments the equivalent to the physical console should be
used.
If a connection is successful on the console the service which is stuck in

starting should be identified and normal trouble shooting performed to
determine why the service is not completing startup.
If the connection to the console is not successful a power cycle of the

server will be required. A connection should be attempted, either through
the console or through RDC, as soon as possible after the power cycle is
performed.

Release Notes
certificates to the various web servers otherwise the previous stores certificates will remain in
effect.
This procedure is only if the previous security setting was set to ON while using the previous store
and the store has been restored.
1) Ensure all services are stopped.

2) Launch Security Manager.
3) Go to Security Configuration Tab.

previous store regardless of the restore procedure.
Restoring a certificate store whose contents have been signed by another Certificate
Authority
If the certificate store has been restored to a system that used another certificate authority (CA) to
sign the contents of the store used previously then, if not done already, the root certificate
authority certificate will have to be deployed to the various clients that communicate with the
server.
If the restored certificate store has been signed by the same certificate authority then this is not
required since the root CA certificates should have already been distributed.
Backing up the Certificate Store
1) Ensure all services are stopped

4) In the Backup and Restore Certificate Store section choose a location in which to create
the backups. NOTE: do not choose a Contact Center directory structure
5) Press the Backup button to back up the store and its associated files

TLS Information
For non-mandatory TLS SIP connections
IP Office releases TLSv1 support
All supported IP Office releases currently provide support for TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2.
Avaya Aura Media Server releases and TLSv1 support
AAMS TLS v1.0 TLS v1.1 TLS v1.2 Options

Release support support support
AAMS No No Yes Configurable (via Element Manager)
Page 51
Release Notes
7.7.1.1 FP1 TLSv1.0 or TLSv1.1 can be set instead if

SP1 required
Page 52
Release Notes
Known applications and services that cannot support TLS v1.2
HDX / DIW connection to databases
HDX / DIW can be used to connect to customer databases. HDX / DIW connect to a remote
database using an ODBC Data Source Name (DSN). The DSN for the database connection must be
manually created on ACCS using the ODBC Data Source Administrator.
If connecting to older versions of Microsoft SQL Server, the DSN created will not connect
successfully if TLS is set to higher than TLS v1.0. In this scenario, enable TLS v1.0 on Security
Manager Security Configuration field “CCMA – Multimedia Web Service Level”.
Remote desktop
Remote desktop connections can also be impacted on some client machines and requires a
Microsoft KB required to remote into ACCS server when TLS v1.1 or higher is set due to RDC only
supporting TLS v1.0. Disabling TLS 1.0 on the CCMA- Multimedia web services setting in Security
Manager will break RDP under default settings on Windows 7 clients and Windows 2008 R2 Server.
This setting covers the entire ACCS server and not only CCMA-MM WS and thus causes remote
desktop connections to fail from Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 server due to the fact it cannot
support TLS v1.1 or TLS v1.2.
Please apply the following KB from Microsoft on your CLIENT or machine wishing to connect to CC
server.
This update provides support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.1 and TLS 1.2 in Windows
7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 for Remote Desktop Services (RDS).
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3080079
System Manager 7.0
System Manager 7.0 and earlier releases do not support TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2
If implementing a Single Sign-On configuration using System Manager to login to CCMA then if TLS
1.1 or TLS 1.2 is enabled the System Manager login page will not be presented.
System Manager 7.0.1 includes support for TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2
