A different user is another good idea. Be careful with the bootstrap file though. You will need upnDiscoveryEnabled: FALSE and you can only change this by deleting the directories (I think) C:\ProgramData\Cisco Systems\Cisco Jabber or by re-installing with a CLEAR=1 and the UPN_DISCOVERY_ENABLED=false It’s enabled by default.

I may not understand exactly what you're trying to do, but, I think that will come out during discussion. I have a production cluster and a development cluster. To switch between the clusters (and to switch users) I have had to do two things: * Create a new service discovery domain with the appropriate servers listed (including development expressway cluster) * Ensure I use the UDS disabled switch when installing Jabber (this allows for different userIDs to be used) I know there are a few parameters out there that allow you to push the domain out, but I'm not 100% sure how that works to be honest.

This works just fine in production and relies on the HOME CLUSTER checkbox for the user to be logged into the correct cluster. My problem comes because I work on non-prod systems as well as prod. The only way I've been able to figure out how to get my jabber to jump to non-prod system is to create a NEW srv record that only contains the nodes of the cluster I want to work with and then change the entry in the bootstrap file. Is there some way to override discovery and hard code a TFTP or subscriber so that Jabber goes to the intended cluster? Or, maybe there's a way to do this without a custom SRV record for each non-prod cluster using registry like we could in Cucilync? Some other trick? I'm hopeful there is some combination of bootstrap settings that I need to figure out, but all of those fields can be a nightmare to get correct without unintentionally breaking something else.

[cisco-voip] moving jabber client between clusters for support?
Up until now, I've just been using CIPC as it does everything I needed it to do... for the most part. Starting this year, I have to jump through way too many hoops to keep using CIPC as it is EOL and our security team doesn't like that. I'm trying to figure out how to configure my Jabber client to register to a specific non-prod cluster, but I'm not having much luck. Our prod has 2 clusters with ILS. the internal SRV record for discovery contains all nodes for both clusters.
