how to enable auto startup for cisco jabber as soon as OS start

[sukhigrwl]

Good Afternoon All:

I  try to deploy cisco jabber on large base(right now only some people in IT using it) in my company and management want cisco jabber starts automatically as soon as OS starts. I knew there's option in cisco jabber under Option - General - Start-up - Start Cisco Jabber when my computer starts

but by default this option is disabled. I just to try to understand if there's any way I can make  this process automatic happen by group policy or cisco jabber-config.xml file( I tired to search this file on TFTP server but some how its not there so its something created automatically by CUCM or I have to upload manually  on server?)  

CUCM and  IM&P Version is 11.0

Cisco Jabber Client for Window is 11.6.0

Hi

The Options parameter 'Start_Client_On_Start_OS' should be set as true in the jabber-config.xml file. The file is downloaded during the initial login, and then takes effect.

<Options>

<Start_Client_On_Start_OS>true<Start_Client_On_Start_OS>

</Options>

Hello Jitender:

so let say I create jabber-config.xml with only this  option so it will be enough or I need to create more option in this file?

I tired to use this tool before too but not sure what to put in Organization Name? tried domain name but its not accepting it and still looking to figure out which 36 GUID I need to put it here. I am using this tool from below web site.

***update***

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config version="1.0">
 <Options>
   <Start_Client_On_Start_OS>true</Start_Client_On_Start_OS>
 </Options>
</config>


***if I upload this file on tftp will it work for me?

Try updating the jabber-config.xml on OS Admin - TFTP and restart TFTP service.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <config version="1.0"> <Options> <Start_Client_On_Start_OS>true</Start_Client_On_Start_OS> </Options> </config>

you mean this one and try ?

[Jitender Bhandari]

best would be to download the existing jabber-config.xml edit it with below

<Options>

<Start_Client_On_Start_OS>true<Start_Client_On_Start_OS>

</Options>

and then follow the steps in above post.

Just to add to the subject, if your PCs are in AD then you can push configuration to startup any application via AD GPO.
