Very Important Upgrade Tips

Page 7: Software Build Notice - BTS · Software Build Notice ... 19.3.3900.0 533 Director 2 Preview ... Roll backs may fail and the ShoreTel configuration database will become corrupt

7 800-2314-01

1. With ST14.0 a Compatibility Checker has been added that can be run as a standalone tool and it is also included as part of the installation. By running this as a standalone tool this will allow customers to identify, and resolve, problems in advance of the planned maintenance window. The details of the tool can be found in the Planning and Installation Guide.

2. With ST13 and higher Windows 2003 server is no longer supported for ShoreTel Enterprise customers. Those

on Windows 2003 server must migrate to a supported Windows 2008 platform before upgrading to ST14. This does not pertain to SBE customers on ShoreTel provided hardware. More detail is contained within this document.

3. With ST13 and greater a new Third Party TSP package needs to be installed on clients that require TAPI for third party applications (i.e. ShoreTel PSO applications). This installation is included with the Communicator software and further detail can be found later in this document.

4. Starting with ST13, customers may not find all of their contacts in Communicator since this has a new configurable limit. This value can be increased in director under Class of Service (Path: Administration ->Class of Service -> Telephony Features Permissions -> Select a group by name). There is a possible performance side effect, with slower search results, that needs to be considered. Sites with higher server specifications will be see less of a performance impact if this value is increased. With ST12.3 and prior there were no limits on the number of contacts since all contacts were stored on the client side. With ST13 and later this is now stored on the server.

5. With ST12.3 build 17.60.9208.0 and higher there is a new version of uboot which improves robustness and

includes recommended fixes. The new version of Boot ROM (uboot) has changed to 1.1.3.27 for both ½ width and V switches. V switches will download and install the new uboot automatically during the upgrade whereas the ½ width switches require a manual update. Please refer to the Planning and Installation Guide for detailed instructions for manually upgrading the uboot. Abbreviated instructions for those familiar with the procedure are as follows:

a. Telnet or SSH to the half-width switch (non V-switch). b. Go to Shell by typing “gotoshell”. c. Enter the command uboot_update on the CLI. Do not turn off the unit until the operation is

complete. d. Exit the shell by typing “exit”. e. Select option “4” from the STCLI to reboot the switch. f. Verify uboot version in Quick Look under the Voice Switch Maintenance page.

6. ShoreTel Communicator Server Side Call History: Prior to ST 12 the call history was stored on the client computer. With ST 12 the call history is now stored on the Server and as a result none of the previous call history will transfer to the server history database after the upgrade. Further details are in the ST 12 Release Notes.

7. Roll backs may fail and the ShoreTel configuration database will become corrupt. It is highly recommended to backup and copy your Shoreline Data folder prior to attempting to upgrade. It is also recommended to back up your Call Detail Records (CDR) database as well. This is separate from the ShoreTel configuration database. If you have an archive database, please make a backup of that database as well prior to proceeding with the upgrade.

8. At the very beginning of the upgrade an error message could be displayed if invalid characters are detected in

the Client User Name. Supported characters are, “ a-z A-Z 0-9 . - _ “. Please allow enough time in your maintenance window to make these changes to the user names. This check for invalid characters is before the upgrade starts and it is necessary to reboot in order to correct any unsupported user names. A log file containing the usernames with the invalid characters will be referenced in the error message.

8 800-2314-01

9. Please note the installer upgrade will take more time than expected from previous releases due to a backup of

the configuration database and CDR database as part of the installation process. It is still recommended to make a backup of your system prior to upgrading should the process fail and force a rollback situation.

Upgrade Paths The following direct server and client (ShoreTel Communicator) upgrade paths are supported for this release:

SoftPhone Headset The SoftPhone feature is compatible with most USB-based headsets that use standard Windows USB driver. ShoreTel does not support Bluetooth headsets that connect directly to the PC's Bluetooth port. The user experience with Bluetooth headsets has proven to be disappointing in office environments because of interferences from corporate WiFi networks. However, the ShoreTel SoftPhone is compatible with headsets such as the Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth system that connects the Bluetooth headset to the PC via a USB base.

Known Issues (Tips & Tricks)

Microsoft Patch KB92533 When Installing/Upgrading if you run into an error “The system administrator has set policies to prevent this

installation”, you will need to install KB925336 security update from Microsoft and a reboot of the Server is

required:

Disable the IP Phone Failover Disable the IP Phone Failover feature in Director when upgrading from 12/12.x/13; otherwise a failover condition

will be induced upon the upgrade. The failback is not automatic. It is a manual process to move the users back to

their primary switch and not the spare switch.

Steps to temporarily disable IP Phone Failover across Sites

1) Log into Director 2) Go to Quick Look page 3) Ensure the checkbox is checked “Temporarily Disable IP Phone Failover Across Sites”

ShoreTel Communicator Client – Windows VISTA Please be aware upon installing the ShoreTel Communicator client on Windows Vista, there is a User Account

Control prompt timeout parameter of 2 minutes after which the operation is cancelled automatically without user

interaction. Please respond to the dialog to continue with the installation otherwise, the installation will fail. This

is only occurring on the manual client installs on Vista and will not be encountered by a silent install.

So if you have users complaining that the setup failed unexpectedly on Vista, ask them whether they saw the User

Account Control dialog. Microsoft is aware of this issue, but they don’t have a solution at this time.

ShoreTel customers with ShoreTel Communicator installed on client machines running Windows XP and upgrade to Windows Vista must execute the client install after having upgraded the OS to Vista with the local System Administrator account and reboot the client machine for CM to work properly.

If multiple clients are being upgraded as part of a “silent install,” then the system administrator must push the

executable with administrative privileges through Active Directory. (Please refer to the “Desktop Installation”

chapter in the Planning and Installation Guide for more information on Microsoft Active Directory or for more

information on performing silent client installs.).

XP to Vista OS upgrade When upgrading the OS from XP to Vista Business/Vista Enterprise (32-bit version), must upgrade the OS before installing/upgrading the ShoreTel Communicator client.

MySQL Port Change The MySQL port has changed for the configuration database (4308) and the CDR database (4309).

V-Switch Min Bandwidth Minimum required available bandwidth to install a V-switch is 64kbps. Using this minimum bandwidth, the firmware upgrade can take more than 30 minutes.

Navigation Menu Changes with ST 12.x and above New Database called shorewarewebbridge running on port 4308 New tables in the CDR database – webattendee and websession Switches menu changed to Platform Hardware. It contains 2 submenus Voice Switches / Service

SA-100/400

End User 1-62392223 - iCalendar is NOT supported for recurring conferences 1-41077481 - In the WTS environment, it is not possible to start desktop sharing and import presentations

using Windows Presenter. As a workaround Java Presenter should be utilized instead

Admin 1-40260951 – When an Instant Conference is started for a two-party call connected via a SIP tie trunk, the

URL for the web conference does not appear in the participant’s call cell in Communicator for Windows. This is as designed

1-127853039 – IE 10 on Windows 8 OS is supported, however users may find Director pages blank after viewing SA100/400 page. The workaround is to resize the browser or to enable IE compatibility mode. See KB16868

1-59479831 – SA100/400 - Accelerator driver causes Mac boot camp installation to fail Workaround is to uninstall the driver and then install Boot Camp. ShoreTel cannot fix this. See KB16484

Exchange Sync/Outlook

1-57763124 - Conference updated in OWA does not get updated by Outlook. It could still get updated by Exchange Sync if it is enabled.

1-66134782 - Outlook: setting multiple recurring exceptions in outlook does not work properly. Example: User1 creates a daily recurring UCB conference in Outlook. If User1 goes to calendar view and changes tomorrow's and the day after tomorrow's time to different times, there is a chance that the first change would get reverted back. End user would actually see that first change gets reverted.

Audio Conference 1-73969806 - Send Digits on a SA-100 call doesn't work correctly when using the Dialer Pad with Windows

Communicator. When this happens you need to use the phone. Issue is experienced if the call is via SIP trunk.

ShoreTel Communicator for Mobile If Upgrading from Below ShoreTel 12. Must uninstall then install the new version due to an application name

change in ST12. If it is upgraded it will have both applications.

Refer to the ShoreTel documentation for installation and upgrade instructions.

Some “Communicator for Mobile” features are limited to User’s that have an IP Phone set as their primary phone.

If the User is a Mobility only user the following features are available.

No. Feature

Data Cell Call with no Data

1 Make Call Yes No No

2 Answer Call Yes No No

3 Hang-up Yes Yes Yes

4 Mute/Unmute Yes No No

5 Hold/Un-hold Yes No No

6 Transfer Yes No No

7 Conference Yes No No

This will be fully documented in the ShoreTel Mobility 8.0 GA Release Notes.

Feature Limitations

SA100/400 Call Me feature not working over SIP Tie Trunk By default, the SA100/400 belongs to a User Group called Audio Conference. Any

restrictions on calling need to be configured in this User Group or the SA100/400 needs to be assigned to a different User Group.

IM/Presence: When a user is switched from OCS 2007/Legacy Conference Bridge to a SA100/400 for IM/Presence, that user will no longer be able to IM and view the presence of users that are not on the same SA100/400 appliance

DMZ considerations o SA100/400’s are NOT supported in a mixed deployment where some SA100/400’s

are deployed in the DMZ and some are deployed in the trusted zone. In other words, either all SA100/400s’s are deployed in the DMZ or all SA100/400’s are deployed in the trusted zone.

21 800-2314-01

o The DMZ router MUST support appropriate FTP ALG (i.e. PASV and EPSV) in order for backup/restore to work against a FTP server outside of the DMZ.

o Ports that must be opened are specified in Installation and Administration Guide for SA100/400 under the DMZ deployment section. In addition to all the ports listed in the document, TCP port 4309 must also be opened.

o When configuring a SA100/400 in a DMZ, a valid FQDN MUST be supplied in order for both users inside and outside of ShoreTel to access a web conference.

o SA100/400 requires an email server from the DMZ in order to send an email invite successfully.

Federation: Federation of instant conferences between systems is not a supported feature in the ST14 release; we support the federation only of MeetMe conferences.

Outlook Calendar Integration: Outlook Calendar Integration for SA100/400 is not supported in a configuration in which one user is a delegate for another user and the user tries to create a SA100/400 conference on behalf of another user. The same is true of calendar sharing.

For a recurring Outlook appointment containing a SA100/400 conference, it is not possible to modify the properties of a single occurrence of the conference and have the modification apply to just that one occurrence; the modification ends up applying to all occurrences of the conference.

SA100/400 – Disaster Recovery not yet supported SA100/400 – Partitioning not yet supported SA100/400 – Linux Security Patch utility not yet supported

Distributed Database Distributed Workgroups are not available with the Distributed Database feature enabled.

Distributed Database and Distributed Workgroup cannot both co-exist in this release.

VMware ShoreTel Application Note 10259 and AN10259 and AN10391 must be read. The VMware

deployment requires careful planning using those references. One important consideration is a dedicated NIC especially for sites with voice quality issues.

ENG-072000 – If the ShoreTel server virtual machine (VM) is executed in VMware High Availability (HA) mode, we recommend that VM Monitoring be disabled. There is a known VMware defect in which VMs that have high CPU or memory utilization sometimes delay sending heartbeats to the VMware vCenter server, which causes vCenter to restart the VMs. The problem can be eliminated by disabling VM Monitoring for the ShoreTel VM, or by reducing the monitoring sensitivity to “Low”. The VM Monitoring properties are set using the “Edit Settings…” menu item for the cluster.

Disaster Recovery is not supported on servers running on VMware. We will leverage VMware failover options such as HA.

HA failover option only supported for HQ server. Not for DVMs. In addition, no failback is needed since the VM gets moved to a new host in case of HA failover for HQ.

Fault Tolerance option is not available for HQ severs since it requires only 1 vCPU.

Windows 2008

Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) Current install base users must upgrade to a build which supports Windows 2008 R2 (ST11-16.5.8506.0 or higher) on their 32-bit Server OS first, verify their entire system has been upgraded to that version, back-up their newly upgraded 32-bit system before migrating over to Windows 2008 R2 Server (64-bit). See Planning and Installation Guides for further details on migration path recommendations.

Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) – All of the ½ width switches (non V-switches) in your system that are FTP booted may not be updated to the latest uboot code of ST11 or greater firmware after installing ST11 or greater on a Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit). You must

telnet or SSH to the ½ width switch. Go to the Shell. Type the command “uboot_update” without the quotation marks. Do not turn off the unit until the operation is complete.

Windows 2008 Server sp2 (32-bit) o Users with Microsoft PowerShell 1.0 installed may encounter issues when
