Attendant/Operator Console: Extension Out of Service

AGAITDEPTatl

We have an issue with the operator console giving an error, regardless of the user or extension, saying that the extension is out of service.  We've rebooted the phone, rebooted the server the attendant console runs on and browsed through the settings and can't find anything apparent on why it is doing this.  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Which attendant console are you using: legacy Cisco Unified Attendant Console; or, the Cisco Unified Department/Business/Enterprise Attendant Console?

Legacy Cisco Attendant Console

Any ideas?

Thanks

We had the same experience with our Cisco Unified Enterprise Attendant version 8.0.0.5. The console had been working for a few users without problem and then one day all users got the same "extension out of service" message when trying to log in.  I restared services via web admin and that did not help, I then restarted the server and the users were able to log in without the "extension out of service" message.

I have the Cisco Unified Business Attendant Console server and the same thing happened to me when I upgraded my CUCM from 8.0.3-20000 to 8.0.3-29000-5 which doesn't make any sense. After the upgrade I can test the connection from attendant console to CUCM and the test passes fine without any issues. I run a sync and that completes without any errors. I check CUCM and the CTI route point and CTI ports are not registering in CUCM. I have a case open with TAC and as soon as I have this issue resolved I will post a rely as to what the fix is. I am not sure if you situation is anything close to mine?

One thing I did find out is if you use RDP to the CUEAC server is  corrupts the Cisco TSP and Wave driver. The recommended way is to use  VNC server to get access to the server. This is the name of the document

cubdacag8005 that explains it. Just click on control + F to  search for RDP and it will tell you. I am still battling it out with the  CUEAC server and not able to get the CTI route point or the CTI ports  to register with call manager. When logging into the attendant console I  am still getting the out of service error message. I will post a fix if  I find one as I am still waiting for Cisco TAC to get back to me for a  resolution on this issue.

The issue I had was with the password in the TSP configuration. Go to the control panel in CUEAC and phone and modems. Next click on the trace file and select all traces. Check call manager to make sure that the CTI port and CTI ports are showing up as unknown. Then back on CUEAC run the CUCM sync. Once this is done go to C:\TEMP and look for the last log with date and timestamp. This log will reveal if you are using an incorrect username or password. That was my issue and why I got the OUT OF SERVICE message when I tried to log into the attendant console. I did uninstall the Cisco wave driver, then removed the Cisco TSP then I restarted the server. Next I reinstalled the TSP and configured the TSP. Last I installed the wave driver. My problem is resolved. I hope you have luck in getting your issue resolved. Good Luck

i did everything i could find in the White Papers, spoke with Cisco TAC and after many hours i figured out the issue! The MAC Address needed to be in all CAPS in CUCM. Not sure why but Attendant Console didn't like the MAC address letters in lowercase.

 

We're using CUCM 8.6.2 and Attendant Console System Version: 10.5.1.10-3, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
