About this manual
This manual contains information about installing and configuring an archiving database as well as
information about second-level archiving.
This document does not provide information on the installation and configuration of a IP Office Contact
Center system with UMR.
Target audience
This manual is intended for experienced database administrators who want to set up and configure an
archiving database (second-level archiving) for the UMR. A sound knowledge of database technology is a
prerequisite: SQL databases, ODBC drivers. The database administrators must be capable of adapting
existing DDL scripts to the particular needs of a company and of writing dedicated DDL scripts for
databases that are not supported. It makes no difference whether you are using this document in printed
or online form.

Second-level UMR Archiving

Second-level UMR Archiving
Archie archiving process
Restriction
The IP Office Contact Center-archiving is a technical solution so that the default database (c3k) remains
powerful. No longer relevant documents can be stored in a second database. The IP Office Contact
Center-archiving is not a long-term archiving tool. For the archive database, there is no level indication,
and no automatic backup and no functions for memory overflow.
What is multi-level archiving?
The IP Office Contact Center UMR component works with documents stored in a runtime database. These
documents can be archived in various levels once they have been completely processed.
First-level archiving
Second-level archiving
First-level archiving
Completed documents will be displayed in the folder Completed. You can identify in the UI internal
documents (Right click - Archive). This marked documents are displayed in the folder Completed. The
documents are stored in the database C3K.
Second-level archiving
The present UMR Archiving Manual only describes second-level archiving.
At the second level of archiving the documents are stored in a second database. The archiving is done by
the Archie archiving process. Archie is a Reporting on Demand (RoD) process of C3000.
Why is a second database needed for archiving?
A second database (archiving database) is needed for the following reasons:
Since the runtime database (first-level archiving) grows too large and can no longer be handled
efficiently it is necessary to store (archive) the data in a second database at certain intervals.
A second database (second-level archiving) can make the data access by customer applications
easier.
6 IP Office Contact Center Achiving

Which databases can be used for second-level archiving?
In principle, any ODBC-capable database can be used. However, due to the different behavior of ODBC
databases of different suppliers only the following databases have been supported so far:
Sybase 12.5
MS SqlServer 2000
Oracle (as of 9i)
For further information on the availability of other databases, please refer to your account manager at
Avaya.
Can you start second-level archiving from the UMR Administrator?
Archiving can be started cyclically via the UMR Administrator.
You will find a detailed description in Operation on page 12.
Can you access externally stored archive data from the UMR system?
If you use Sybase for the archived data, then you can use the following functions in the UI in the folder
Archive.
View Archive
Note long load times for large data set.
Filter by Archive
Print the document from the archive
You can not edit a document in the archive.
Properties of second-level archiving
Second-level archiving provides you with the following features:
Deleting the documents from the runtime database
Writing the documents to an archiving database Parallel to that, deleting the documents from the
runtime database
Starting the delete/archiving jobs using the Scheduler. For further information please refer to
chapter UMR administrator: Scheduler and archiving process on page 12.
Second-level UMR Archiving

Error messages second-level archiving
If an archiving or delete job cannot be processed, this information is passed on to the scheduler with an
error code. This is complemented by a technical error message (partially forwarded original message of
the faulty component) in English which can be displayed in the UMR Administrator. The interfaces also
show the status of the last job that was completed.
Archiving or delete job failed
If an archiving or delete job failed it will not be repeated. Instead, the application will wait for the next
periodic job.
Error messages
Detailed error messages are written in TTrace. If required you can set up a warning behavior using TTrace.
More detailed information about TTrace can be found in the Installation and Configuration TTrace manual.
8 IP Office Contact Center Achiving

Basics
The archiving process transports data from the runtime database into an archiving database.
The archiving database can be located on the same database server or on another one.
Which prerequisites must be met by the source and target database?
The following prerequisites must be met by the source and target database.
The source database must be Sybase ASE 12.5.x.
The target database must offer ODBC as an interface for writing data records. INSERT instructions
are used and BLOBS or TEXT columns are inserted. The required tables are created in the Sybase
database during installation of UMR. For Microsoft SqlServer 2000 and Oracle 9i, DDL scripts are
generated during installation. These DDL scripts can be found in the following directory after
installation:
<Installations directory for ROD>/ArchiveDDL
As a database administrator you might have to adapt these DDL scripts to local conditions (see comments
at the beginning of the DDL scripts) and then use them on the desired database.
For information about installing Sybase, refer to Deploying IP Office Contact Center.

Which settings do you have to take into account for sending faxes?
Note the following settings for sending faxes.
If you archive all the binary files of the fax graphics you will need a lot of memory and the system
will be exposed to heavy load.
If you do not archive the binary files of the fax graphics the faxes you sent will no longer be
available later on.
When configuring this parameter you have to decide which of these two aspects shall take precedence
over the other.
You configure the CopyCachedFaxPages entry in the rod.ini in the <Rod directory>/ini directory.
For further information on the rod.ini file please refer to Kapitel Configuration on page 11.
How is the data stored in the target database?
The following source data is stored.
C3K_DOCUMENT
C3K_DOCPROP
C3K_DOCUMENT_INDEX
C3K_CONFIG_DOCINDEX
C3K_REQUEST
C3K_USER
C3K_USER2
In the target database the data is stored in the following tables:
C3K_DOCUMENT_ARCHIVE
C3K_DOCPROP_ARCHIVE
C3K_DOCUMENT_INDEX_ARCHIVE
C3K_CONFIG_DOCINDEX_ARCHIVE
C3K_REQUEST_ARCHIVE
C3K_USER_ARCHIVE
C3K_USER2_ARCHIVE
If you Then set CopyCachedFaxPages to
Want to save the fax graphic created by a transmitted fax as a
binary file in the archive database.
ON
Do not want to save the fax graphic created by a transmitted
fax in the archive database.
OFF (default)
10 IP Office Contact Center Achiving

Which criteria have to be met by the data records to be archived or deleted?
The following criteria must be met:
All the documents that belong to one task are always archived or deleted together. This process
revolves around the main document. The main document is the document that initiates the whole
process. It is the document with the earliest time of creation.
The main document must meet the following criteria:
- The document is archived in the archived state.
This guarantees that only Call Center messages are archived.
- The document was created before a given time.

Tips and tricks
This topic explains how to make use of second-level database archiving in the IP Office Contact Center.
Do you have to archive?
Yes. If you never archive the runtime database of the IP Office Contact Center system, it will be full after
a certain time.
What happens if the database is full?
In this case, documents can no longer be written to the database. In TTrace you can observe
corresponding outputs. If there is not enough space in the database an error message with the number
1105 will be issued in the following way:
Can't allocate space for object '%.*s' in database '%.*s' because '%.*s' segment is full/has no free
extents. If you ran out of space in syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise, use ALTER
DATABASE or sp_extendsegment to increase size of the segment
You can put a trigger on the corresponding output in TTrace (mind the placeholders) and send an email
to the system administrator.
How often do we recommend archiving?
The intervals for archiving your runtime database depend for example on the following factors:
Number of documents
Size of the documents
Size of database
Since these factors can vary considerably from one company to another it is not possible to make a general
recommendation.
However, by rule of thumb you should start the archiving process when your runtime database is 75 % full.
Second-level UMR Archiving

One-time archiving
The following is an example of a one-time archiving process. Let us assume that we want to start the
archiving process on 01.12.05 at 8:00 pm and that we would like to archive all Call Center messages that
are older than 3 months. Signal this as follows:
How do you create an archiving job?
Complete the following steps:
1. In the UMR Administrator, click the Archive/delete page.
2. Click on the Archive UMR documents tab.
3. Click on the Add button.
4. An area is displayed with default settings for mode and time.
5. Select the once mode.
6. In the Start field, enter 01.12.05 for the date and 20:00 for the time.
7. Enter the figure 3 in the All documents older than field and select the unit Months from the list box.
Now all UMR documents before 01.09.05 will be archived. In order for this to actually happen, you
must activate the archiving job. For information on how to activate an archiving job please refer to
Kapitel How do you activate an archiving job? on page 19 Afterwards, please return to this place.
8. Click on the green check mark to include the archiving job in your list.
How do you activate an archiving job?
After creating an archiving job you must enable it for execution.
Complete the following steps:
1. Click on the pencil icon next to the archiving job just created. The activate check box is displayed.
2. Activate this check box. The archiving job you have created is thus activated.

Cyclic archiving
We recommend that you always create a cyclic archiving job for archiving UMR documents. For this
purpose a sample archiving job was created in the Scheduler already during setup. During setup you
decided whether the sample archiving job was activated or deactivated. Let us assume that you have
already activated the sample archiving job during setup.
Let us assume that you want to start the cyclic archiving job on 01.12.05 at 8:00 pm and that you would
like to archive all Call Center messages automatically once a month for 12 months until the 01.12.06. You
would like for each archiving process only to include the UMR documents that are older than 3 months at
the time of the archiving job. Signal this as follows:
1. In the UMR Administrator, click the Archive/delete page.
2. Click on the Archive UMR documents tab. Select the sample archiving job and click on the pencil.
An area is displayed with default settings for mode and time.
3. Select the repeat after mode, enter the figure 1 in the field and select the unit Months from the list
box.
4. In the Start field, enter 01.12.05 for the date and 20:00 for the time.
5. In the End field, enter 01.12.06 for the date and 20:00 for the time.
6. Enter period of time 3 in the All documents older than field and select the Months unit from the list
box.
Now all UMR documents that are older than three months will be archived. Since you have already
agreed to the activation of the cyclic archiving job during setup the activate check box is already
activated.
7. Click on the green check mark to include the archiving job in your list.
8. Your modified cyclic archiving job will be completed as desired from 01.12.05 20:00 until 01.12.06
20:00 on the first of each month at 8:00 pm.
Archiving not working
If the archive does not work, the following instructions may be helpful.
Check the file rod.ini. May not work the name resolution. Replace the server name with the
corresponding IP address.
Example ArchDestOdbcConnect =
Server = 123 123 123 123, Port = 5000; Database = umarchive; Text Size = 131072
Check the services:
Archie Rod, Rod CommadExecuter, Rod Reposerv, Rod Rodomat, Rod scheduler server
Check for these services the messages in TTrace.

Glossary
Archiving database Second-level archiving: Documents are transferred to a second database for storage.
The archiving job is completed by the Archie archiving process. Archie is a Reporting
on Demand (RoD) process. The archiving database is needed because over time the
runtime database is growing too big and because data access by customer applications
will be made easier with a second database.
DB server The DB server administers the IP Office Contact Center system configuration.
DDL scripts DDL scripts are database scripts in which it is defined how the database is to be
constructed.
DNS DNS (Domain Name System) is a standard name service for Internet and TCP/IP.
Using the DNS service client computers can register and resolve DNS domain names
in the network. These names are used for searching for and accessing resources which
are available on other computers in your own or in other networks, for example on the
Internet.
Domain A domain is a group of computers that are part of a network and use a shared directory
database. A domain is organized in levels and is managed as a single unit using shared
rules and procedures. Each domain has a unique name.
On the Internet domains are defined by means of an IP address. All devices that share
the use of part of the IP address are in the same domain. In an Internet address the
domain is generally the word or the number that describes the type of owner of the
address, e.g. .com or .org

HTTP HTTP stands for hypertext transport protocol. HTTP is a general, status-less,
object-oriented protocol for data transfer within the framework of the World Wide Web
(WWW).
IP IP stands for Internet Protocol. It is used to address and fragment data and transmit this
data to the recipient. It is a 32-bit address that is used to identify a node in an integrated
IP network. A unique IP address consisting of a network identifier and a host identifier
must be assigned to each node in an IP network. This address is normally transmitted
in dotted decimal point format, in which case the decimal value of each group of eight
digits is separated by a point, for example 192.168.7.27.
LAN LAN stands for Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers, which are
interconnected in a network.
LNA server The LNA server records changes in the database and informs the relevant processes of
these changes.

Mailboxes Mailboxes for topics/agents are provided by the IP Office Contact Center. The
mailboxes are displayed in the UMR WebClient as mailbox folders (these are tabs).
ODBC ODBC stands for Open DataBase Connectivity (Open Database Connectivity) and is a
database driver, and therefore provides a programming interface (API) that enables a
programmer to develop his application irrespective of the database server used (the
database). The technology makes it possible to integrate data from any applications
into a database system. This interface was originally developed for Microsoft Access,
but in the mean time has also been adopted by other software manufacturers. ODBC
has since been established as the standard in many fields.
Modern programming environments (e.g. Borland Builder) use ODBC to enable
uncomplicated access to a wide range of different database management systems
(using ready-made data-sensitive control elements). Data access is never made
directly to a table or a database, but always via the corresponding (ODBC) component!
Using ODBC it is possible to access any local or remote data source.
Classes that define methods for handling the data resources from different database
systems are available for object-oriented programming languages (e.g. C++). The
programmer no longer needs to worry about any database-specific details.
PDF PDF stands for Portable Document Format.
Runtime database First-level archiving: Documents can can be archived using the UMR WebClient. These
documents can be accessed from the UMR WebClient. They behave similarly to as yet
unarchived documents. This is achieved by giving the documents in the runtime
database an archive flag.
SMTP SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and is a layer-four protocol (application
layer) in the OSI layer model. It is used to send email to an Internet Service Provider's
(ISP) SMTP server and from there on over the Internet to the recipient's mailbox. In this
way, other SMTP servers can be used as intermediate stations.
UMR WebClient The UMR WebClient is a web-based processing interface component of the UMR
system.
An agent can use the UMR WebClient to log into or out of the UMR system and to read
and process documents (email/fax/SMS). The supervisor can also view agent mailbox
folders and delegate/delete documents.
UMR UMR stands for Unified Messaging Routing.
