Use this procedure to import Personal Directory data for UNIStim endpoints. This procedure is intended only for new installations of Device Adapter and overwrites any data currently in the cluster database for Releases 8.1.1 and earlier and in PPM for Release 8.1.2.
Note:
39XX endpoints store Personal Directory data locally. It cannot be migrated.
Locate the pd.xml file created in the ‘Exporting Personal Directory data’.
Upload the pd.xml file to any directory in the active server in the Avaya Breeze® platform cluster.
Login to the active server by using SSH and the appropriate credentials.
Enter the command line interface by running the command: vxShell.
Run the pdImport command to import the Personal Directory contacts either from CS 1000 or Device Adapter snap-in. CS 1000 and Device Adapter snap-in Release 8.1.1 and earlier saves the imported contacts in the cluster database where as Device Adapter snap-in Release 8.1.2 saves the contacts in the PPM.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Note:
The pd.xml file in pdImport <full_path_to_pd.xml_file> command is obtained from a CS 1000 system.
You must run the pdImport command only if the endpoints are configured but not registered with System Manager.
The pdImport command works only if the pd.xml file is saved in either /var/tmp or chmod 755 /home/cust location on the Avaya Breeze® platform server.
To see usage help, enter pdImport with no arguments.
The command syntax when importing PD contacts from Device Adapter snap-in is pdImport <full_path_to_pd_xml_file>.
The command syntax when importing PD contacts from CS 1000 are:
For example, pdImport /var/tmp/pd.xml 9 ada.avaya.com 343 111 command will import the PD contacts of users with customer number 9 and hloc value 343 from CS 1000.
If a prefix is not required, provide customer number and domain name only.
Validation: If the data was imported successfully for the specified customer number, the following log is printed:
pdImport /opt/Avaya/snap_in/da/pd/pd.xml 9.ada.avaya.com 343 111 === PD === Parsing completed. 140 user(s) have been imported for customer 9.
