Each UCC has its own settings, IVR menus and Agents. Agents can belong to one or several UCCs and can have multiple skills (competencies). A UCC can be visualized as a contact center “micro service”. Customers can utilize one UCC (e.g. a global helpdesk), a few UCC’s (e.g. for each department or regional office) or hundreds of UCC’s (e.g. for each bed at a hospital). They are interconnected and can all be managed from one central location. service log files, config file or both |

Restart Process and automated tasks
The restart will trigger an automated process of consecutive tasks which will enhance the data-gathering pre-restart and data gathering and healthchecks post-restart of a service to facilitate troubleshooting in one easy step. The live status of the entire restart can be monitored on a separate tile on your dashboard.

The Restart process is as follows:
-
Pre Restart
-
Data gathering
-
Collection key performance counters at a UCC level
-
Heartbeat
-
SharePoint Connected
-
Established Endpoints
-
SharePoint Connection check using configuration obtained in config XML
-
Log Collection prior to restarting of the service
-
Pre-flight checks
-
If clear cache is selected checks to see if heartbeat is online for all UCCs and SharePoint configuration still works.
-
-
Post restart
-
Post-Checks
-
Iterates through each UCC and compares metrics before and after to ensure all is healthy and everything can connect.
