resend_sent_files

If

true

, the CUCM server will re-send files that it has already successfully

sent. Since the CUCM can be configured to send data files to any host
specified by CUCM Web administration configuration settings, this field
must be set to

true

to ensure that data files are also sent to the

DataChannel host that requested them.
Use the

false

setting in the following situations:

If you prefer to have the data files pushed back to the DataChannel
host according to a schedule specified by CUCM Web administration
configuration settings. Set the CUCM configuration to push the data
files back to the DataChannel server where the ProvisoCUCM
instance is running.

If data files are being pushed back to the DataChannel host too slowly
for your needs.

If this field is

false

, the ProvisoCUCM instance will request the data files

from the CUCM server and receive none. It will then check for the data
files in the location specified by the CUCM Web administration
configuration (at time intervals specified by

run_interval

or

perfmon_interval

). If the files are there, ProvisoCUCM retrieves the

files and generates the CSV output to

cdr_output_dir

(or

perfmon_output_dir

with Perfmon data) on the DataChannel host

that requested the data.

Example: resend_sent_files=true

grace_period

The time, in milliseconds, to subtract from the polling start time. The
polling start time is the time that the ProvisoCUCM instance begins
polling the CUCM server for data.
The grace period is intended to help you avoid missing data files that the
CUCM has not yet written for the current time period.
ProvisoCUCM uses the polling start time specified in the field

start_time

of the file

cucm.TIMESTAMP

. This file resides in the same

directory as the

cucm.properties

file.

If the file does not exist when ProvisoCUCM is instantiated, it starts
polling the CUCM server immediately, creates

cucm.TIMESTAMP

, and

writes the current time to it.

Example grace period (100 seconds): grace_period=100000
Example start time (1/20/2009 at 12:00): start_time=1232470820931

run_interval

The interval, in milliseconds, at which ProvisoCUCM polls the CUCM
server for CDR and CMR data files, and checks

cdr_output_dir

for

data files pushed there by the CUCM server.

Example (15 minutes): run_interval=900000

perfmon_interval

The interval, in milliseconds, at which ProvisoCUCM polls the CUCM
server for Perfmon data files, and checks

perfmon_output_dir

for

data files pushed there by the CUCM server.

Example (5 minutes): run_interval=300000
