This might be comparing apples to oranges, but I remember when CUCM was on Windows (*shiver*) and we had to do some fancy CDR exporting stuff. I tell you, the SQL wizard was amazing. Building what you needed from pull downs etc. And then, you just click “scheduled” and boom.
Listen, I wouldn’t want to back to windows for anything. But I just wish there was tools like that. --- Lelio Fulgenzi, B.A. | Senior Analyst Computing and Communications Services | University of Guelph Room 037 Animal Science & Nutrition Bldg | 50 Stone Rd E | Guelph, ON | N1G 2W1 519-824-4120 Ext. 56354 | [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.uoguelph.ca/ccs<http://www.uoguelph.ca/ccs> | @UofGCCS on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook [University of Guelph Cornerstone with Improve Life tagline] From: Anthony Holloway [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2018 3:38 PM To: Bill Talley <[email protected]> Cc: Lelio Fulgenzi <[email protected]>; [email protected] Subject: Re: [cisco-voip] Windows AXL Query Tool I don't think this is splitting hairs, but the toolkit is just code Cisco is handing out that makes working with their AXL API easier. At the most basic level I'd care to explore, you could simply hand craft your SOAP payload, and send the HTTPS request to CUCM and never once use the toolkit nor WSDL. If all you're doing is using the WSDL from the toolkit, then you're technically not using the toolkit, rather you're using resources (the WSDL) that the toolkit also happens to be using. It would be great if the WSDL was available right from CUCM, so you didn't have to download it.

The script imports the wsdl file from the AXL toolkit and uses it to query CUCM. The links I posted explain the setup required. As far as I know, all AXL/SOAP scripts or webpages regardless of programming language will use the same AXL toolkit or components of it to access CUCM. Someone correct me if I’m wrong please. I’m cleaning up the full python script as well as working on a GUI and distributable package for the script, but hopefully they will give you an idea of how to get started with Python. It can seem overwhelming at first, but it’s not that bad. As many people can probably tell from the scripts, I’m not a programmer but once you pick up the basics, it’s can be quit powerful even with limited experience.

This is a great help. I’ll have to see which is better for me (or which is easier to use) – this toolkit or CLI. --- Lelio Fulgenzi, B.A. | Senior Analyst Computing and Communications Services | University of Guelph Room 037 Animal Science & Nutrition Bldg | 50 Stone Rd E | Guelph, ON | N1G 2W1<https://maps.google.com/?q=50+Stone+Rd+E+%7C+Guelph,+ON+%7C+N1G+2W1&entry=gmail&source=g> 519-824-4120 Ext. 56354<tel:(519)%20824-4120> | [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> www.uoguelph.ca/ccs<http://www.uoguelph.ca/ccs> | @UofGCCS on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook <image001.png> From: Anthony Holloway [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2018 11:46 AM To: Lelio Fulgenzi <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: Brian Meade <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Pete Brown <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [cisco-voip] Windows AXL Query Tool No not really. The work flow is like this: 1. Download the ZIP file from CUCM plugins page and extract to your PC. It's simply called Cisco AXL Toolkit, but the file is axlsqltoolkit.zip 2. Open a command prompt to the working folder you extracted the files to, such that you're in the same folder as the README.txt 3. Open the README.txt and make a copy of the command example for your platform: windows or linux, and for me it's windows, so line 22 I will copy to the line below the example (CTRL+d in Notepad++) 4. Correct the username and password, host for your environment 5. Add the input/output file switches: -input=test.xml -output=test.txt (we'll create the test.xml in the next step, and it will create the test.txt file for you) 6. Make a copy of the sample.xml file and we'll name it test.xml for this exercise 7. Edit the test.xml so it only contains 1 query; we'll use this one for testing: <sql query="select name from processnode"/> 8. Copy your command line from the README.txt and paste it into your command prompt 9. Watch the activity scroll up the screen, and check your test.txt file for the output Be prepared: it's SOAP and it's ugly. So, don't be expecting CSV style data formatting here. I typically only use this tool when I need to run UPDATE commands, like lots of them, to make changes to the DB, which is few and far between. More commonly, I'm using UPDATE commands right on the CLI....with careful WHERE clauses....or even more commonly, I'm just looking at data with SELECT commands.

I couldn't find anything readily available that didn't involve scripting. It only supports SELECT statements at the moment. It's been tested with 10.5 so far and probably has bugs which will trigger the next apocalypse. Use at your own risk. Usage Notes: Adding a Profile - Right click under "Hosts" and Add Server. Validate then Submit and it will automatically save a config file in the working directory. Listing Tables - When you select a host, it will automatically grab a list of tables. Queries - Type in the query and execute. It will either display results or an error code on the bottom. https://www.adhdtech.com/CUCM%20AXL%20Query.exe _______________________________________________ cisco-voip mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip _______________________________________________ cisco-voip mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip _______________________________________________ cisco-voip mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-voip
