The primary and secondary servers act in the following manner:

•When the primary server is operating normally, the secondary server is inactive.

•When the primary server becomes inactive, the secondary server becomes active.

•When the primary server becomes active again, the secondary server becomes inactive.

Setting Up the Secondary Server for Failover

Do the following procedure to integrate the secondary server.

To Set Up the Secondary Server for Failover

Step 1 Install a secondary server with the same configuration as the primary server. For installation instructions, refer to the applicable Cisco Unity installation guide.

Step 2 Make all voice connections from the phone system to the corresponding ports on both the primary server and the secondary server. For example, connect port 1 from the phone system with port 1 on both the primary and the secondary servers.

Step 3 Connect one serial cable from the serial port on the phone system to the data splitter unit.

Step 4 Connect the remaining two serial cables to the two serial ports on the data splitter unit. Then connect one serial cable to the serial port on the primary server and the other serial cable to the serial port on the secondary server.

Step 5 On the Windows Start menu of the secondary server, click Programs > Cisco Unity > Manage Integrations. The UTIM window appears.

Step 6 On the Integration menu of the UTIM window, click New. The Telephony Integration Setup Wizard appears.

Step 7 Enter the settings to match the integration settings on the primary server.

Note We recommend not reassigning any unassigned subscribers and call handlers to the new integration, if you are asked by the wizard. Failover replication will automatically assign the correct integration.

Step 8 At the prompt to restart the Cisco Unity services, click Yes.
