CallManager 7 "Services Provisioning" in Enterprise Parameters "

This parameter is new in Cisco CallManager 7.  After upgrade from 5.1 or 6.1, some of my CallManager sites that had "Service Button" changed and that bringing up Directory no longer works.  Until today I finally accidentally saw this "Services Provisioning" parameter has default value set to "Internal" and other choices are "Both" and "External".  After change it to "Both", Viola, it works again.

Migrating Cisco Wireless Control System to a new host

Have to move a redhat system from a physical box to a vmware host.  I do not want to keep all the data and especially wanted to keep the MAP.  Maybe there is a Cisco "official" way to do a export and import, or restore from the backup.   But I wanted try just copying it over, and in the meant time upgrading to the latest version.  Here are the steps:

1). Stopped WCS service and use tar to backup the whole installation folder of existing WCS
2). untar the backup to the new host in the same path
3). copied /var/.com.zerog.registry.xml to the new host /var/.com.zerog.registry.xml
4). run the latest WCS installation binary, and it worked!  WCS is back and running and upgraded very fast!

routers2.cgi Page Title

Default is "Systems Monitor", not so meaningful, especially with so many Tabs in my browser.  Found out a variable "windowtitle=..." can be defined in routers2.conf", so now the tab is clearly marked.
