This guide provides information about migrating an on-premises deployment to the Cisco Webex Calling Dedicated Instance (WxC-DI) using the Yarnlab Wrangler. During a migration, Cisco deploys the Unified CM cluster, then an administrator at the partner configures it, replicating the on-premises source cluster/s and register the end-user devices to the WxC-DI post migration.

Wrangler supports migrations of single and multiple CUCM clusters into a single WxC-DI cluster and or to WxC-MT (from version 2.6.x).

The WxC-DI (CUCM cluster) Dialplan can be migrated using one of the following methods

...

In the Template option, Wrangler will deploy either a standardised CUCDM type dial plan or a standard Simplified Dial Plan to the target cluster, existing dial plan objects then have to be mapped to the target dial plan objects.

Software Requirements: Yarnman OVA for initial installation and Yarnman installed. Virtual miachine deployed and bootstrap setup completed https://yarnlab.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/YSP/pages/2916941825/Yarnman+Photon+Powered+YM-PH+-+Installation+and+Upgrade+Guide#Compute-Requirements

For v2.5.x The process to install Yarnman is described in Yarnman Setup Guide under interfaces chapter yarnlab legacy documentation - v2.5.x

The following configuration needs to be setup before using Wrangler UCMC

...

Minimum Mapped Objects (need to be configured on target system)

  • MRGL (MRG)

  • CMG

Info

Additional configuration may will be required based on source configuration - this will be visable after inital discovery in target mappings and will vary on dial plan option selected (Clone/Map)

Data Extraction

  • Configuration is extracted from the source and target clusters and imported into Migration Assistant  including all lines, devices, users and dial plan

  • Configuration can be periodically rediscovered if required for phased migrations
