Whenever we do a CM upgrade, we will always have one phone that receives VM but no MWL. It is usually several days later when the user realizes it. It is always a different extension. What causes this and what can we do to prevent this problem?

This is very common when doing any significant changes on CUCM (like an upgrade). The way we usually mitigate these type of issues is to run a MWI Re-sync after the changes are done (usually the last step).

In Unity Connection go to Telephony Integrations – Phone System – Click the Run Button for Synchronize All MWIs on This Phone System.

Cisco Unified Call manger 5.1.2 remote call forwarding

Posted by Peter Kurdziel on October 19, 2009

Cisco Unified Call manger 5.1.2

My office Cisco phone is enabled for call forwarding to my cell and I am on the road. Is it possible to remove the call forwarding from my Cisco office phone remotely? (Without logging into CCM User Web page)?

No, you need to do this either via the WEB or on the office phone.
