Introduction

Cisco TelePresence Management Suite Extension for Microsoft Exchange (Cisco TMSXE) is an

optional add-on to the Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (Cisco TMS) that allows you to fully

integrate the scheduling functionality of Cisco TMS with your existing Microsoft Exchange

deployment. This integration gives users the ability to schedule video conferences and invite

participants directly from their Microsoft Outlook clients while viewing availability information of

resources regardless of where meetings are created.

Pre-Installation Information

Cisco TMSXE synchronizes Microsoft Exchange calendaring and Cisco TMS scheduling by installing

components in the backend servers of an Exchange organization. By installing in the backend, all

users of the organization can benefit from a single installation. Cisco TMSXE is installed on an

Exchange 2003 or 2007 Server in the organization, and accounts integrated with Cisco TMS must be

hosted by the Information Store of that server.

Only one Cisco TMSXE installation is required per Exchange organization as long as all users have

access to the resource accounts hosted by that server. There should never be more than one Cisco

TMSXE installation in a single domain. Installations with complex security models where users cannot

see accounts across domains should contact their Cisco sales representatives for assistance planning

more complex deployments. For more information on how Cisco TMSXE integrates with your

Exchange Organization and details on server changes, please refer to the Changes and Impact of

Cisco TMSXE Installation on Existing Servers section.

Installation and Upgrades

Completing the installation of Cisco TMSXE requires completing all the sections in this chapter. Each

section must be reviewed for both upgrades and new installations.

Upgrading from a previous installation

a. If you are running an earlier version of Cisco TMSXE and not changing Exchange Server

versions, you can continue with the installation steps as normal and the installer will handle your

existing version automatically.

b. If you are currently using Exchange Server 2003 and plan to upgrade to Cisco TMSXE without

changing to Exchange Server 2007, review the section Upgrading to Cisco TMSXE on

Exchange 2003 for pre-installation steps and information on changes in how your integration will

differ with the new Cisco TMSXE product before continuing.

c. If you are currently using Exchange Server 2003 and are upgrading your integration installation to

an Exchange 2007 Server, review the section Upgrading to Cisco TMSXE and Migrating to

Exchange 2007 for specific information on pre-installation needs changes in how your integration

will differ with the new Cisco TMSXE product before continuing.

Installation of Server Software

If reinstalling or upgrading the software on a server where Cisco TMSXE was previously installed, the

installer will automatically read the existing settings from the server’s registry and skip steps where it

does not need additional user input. Because of this, not all steps listed below may be shown. If any

of the previous installation’s values need to be changed, these can be changed using the

Configuration Utility post-installation.

Note: There are separate installers for 64bit installations and 32bit installations – Please use the

appropriate link for your server type.

1. Log into the Windows console of the Exchange Server where Cisco TMSXE will be installed.

Close all other running programs and any security/anti-virus software that may hinder installing

the software.

2. Launch Setup File—The Cisco TMSXE installer is located on the Cisco TMS installation media.

Open the index page by double-clicking browse.bat. Click the Install link start the installation

program.

3. Detecting a previous version—The installer will search for an existing installation of Cisco TMSXE

and if found, will prompt if you wish to upgrade the existing installation. Click Yes to continue. The

installer will automatically reuse settings it finds on the server.

4. Component Check—The installer will verify all the required Microsoft software components are

installed on the server, and if not will present a list of components that must be updated. The

installer will complete this task for you automatically (requires Internet Access), but may require a

restart of the server after the installation is complete.

5. Installation Wizard—A welcome window will appear on the screen. Click the Next button

6. Read and Accept the License Agreement—Read the License Agreement and select the ‘I accept

the terms…’ option. Click Next to continue. Selecting ‘I do not accept the terms…’ or clicking

has been configured to use HTTPS

. Click Next to continue.

ii. The installer will look for an existing service user account on the Windows server based

on your domain’s email. If one is found, the installer will re-use it, otherwise the installer

will create a new one. If needed, the installer will create a local Windows user account

tmsconfuser on the Cisco TMS server, setup a Cisco TMS profile for the user, and

assign it permissions within Cisco TMS needed to operate with Cisco TMSXE.

b. Select I have created a service user on the TMS server and click Next.

i. Enter the network address to the Cisco TMS server, along with the user name and

password of the existing service account. The Use HTTPS checkbox can only be used if

your server has been configured to use HTTPS

ii. When reusing an existing account, the user’s Cisco TMS profile must be configured for

Cisco TMSXE manually. Open a web browser and log into your Cisco TMS server with a

username that is a Site Administrator. Edit the user’s profile under Administrative

Tools >User Administration > Users. In the account’s profile, set Exchange

Integration Service Account to Yes. Set the user’s email address to the Exchange

Service Account’s (the TMS-Service user) email address. Ensure the user is a member

of a Cisco TMS group that has the Book on behalf permission set in the Group

Permissions. Save the changes to the user’s profile. You can close your web browser

and return to the Cisco TMSXE installer.

10. Start Installation—The installer now has all the information needed to complete the installation.

Click Install and the installer will complete the necessary software and configuration setup on the

Exchange Server.

11. Finish installation—When complete, a Finish screen is displayed. Leaving the checkbox marked

will automatically launch the Configuration Utility so that the next portion of the installation can be

completed. Click Finish to close the installer and launch the Configuration Utility to complete the

next phase of the installation.

Initialization of Resource Accounts

Each Cisco TMS system that you wish to be scheduled from Exchange will have a Domain user

account and mailbox in the Exchange environment. The accounts must be configured with specific

properties and settings to operate with Cisco TMSXE.

The Configuration Utility installed as part of Cisco TMSXE allows creation, configuration, and

management of these accounts. Additionally, the Configuration Utility is the tool used to change any

behaviors of the Cisco TMSXE installation. The configuration utility can be found in the Start Menu,

under Programs > TANDBERG > TANDBERG eXtensions for Microsoft Exchange > TANDBERG

Configuration.

As part of a first time installation, you must configure and initialize the Exchange mailboxes that will

represent the Cisco TMS systems to integrate. For upgrades, your existing accounts will automatically

be reused, but launching the Configuration utility is required to allow the diagnostics to be run on your

existing accounts. If no new accounts are to be added, upgrade users can skip to the next section

when they have opened the Configuration utility at least one time and allowed the tool to repair their

existing accounts.

To fully use the Configuration utility, the logged in user must be a Domain Administrator and

Exchange Full Administrator (or Exchange Recipient Administrator for Exchange 2007 Installs).
