Scheduled Provisioning Notes

Some notes about scheduled provisioning profiles and the scheduled provisioning of endpoints:

Each page in the scheduled Provisioning Fields dialog box has a Provision This Page option. When this option is selected, the system provisions all of the values on that page. When this option is not selected, the system does not provision any of the values on that page. At least one page must be provisioned, or the system returns an error stating, “No data to save in profile. Either press Cancel or add pages.”

Until the CMA system successfully provisions an endpoint scheduled for provisioning, provisioning remains in the Pending state and the system attempts to provision the endpoint until it succeeds or until the provisioning is cancelled.

If an endpoint scheduled for provisioning is In a Call, the system waits until the call ends before provisioning the endpoint. The system checks the endpoint at 15 minute intervals.

If an endpoint scheduled for provisioning is Offline, the system attempts to connect to it at 60 minute intervals until the endpoint is Online.

Provisioning may reboot the endpoint

You can schedule provisioning for an unlimited number of endpoints, but the system may limit the number of active provisioning processes

Endpoint Gatekeeper Registration Policies

If the CMA system gatekeeper registration policy allows endpoints to register automatically (that is, a primary gatekeeper setting of Allow Registration of All Endpoints, Allow Registration of Endpoints in Defined Sites, or Allow Registration of Endpoints with Defined E.164 Prefixes), those registered endpoints are automatically added to the endpoint list.

If the CMA gatekeeper registration policy does not allow endpoints to register automatically (that is, a gatekeeper setting of Allow Registration of Predefined Endpoints Only), you must manually add all endpoints to the CMA system.

No matter what the gatekeeper registration policy, any endpoint that is automatically provisioned, any endpoint that is registered with the Global Address Book, and any endpoint that is added manually to the CMA system can automatically register with the gatekeeper. For more information, see “Device Registration” on page 396.

Note

You can manually add endpoints to the CMA system for monitoring purposes only.
