I seem to be having an issue creating a Device Profile.
Using UCM v7.1
When I try to create a device with a call to addPhone I get the following fault:
"The specified name has invalid characters or is not formatted correctly for this device type."
This occurs with any combination of name eg: "SEP0000000000", "1", "aaa"
Does anybody else experience this and know a way to create Device Profiles??

Hi,
Are you creating a device or a device profile? Your question is a bit contradictive. Can you post your xml?
Kind regards,

Hi Dan, I may be wrong but it is essentially the same thing but with class == Device Profile;
The action called is "addPhone" and the main device fields I am using are as follows:
<name>aaaa</name>
<description></description>
<product>Cisco 7940</product>
<model>Cisco 7940</model>
<class>Device Profile</class>
<protocol>SCCP</protocol>
<securityProfileName>Cisco 7940 - Standard SCCP Non-Secure Profile</securityProfileName>
with this I get a result of:
<faultstring>The specified name has invalid characters or is not formatted correctly for this device type.</faultstring>
If I manually create a Device Profile called "aaaa" I can pull its configuration by doing a getPhone wiith <phoneName>aaaa</phoneName> and all looks fine, so I'm sure I am close to the answer..

Hi,
Sorry for the late respose. My question was based on the fact that there are both an "AddPhone" as well as an "AddDeviceProfile" action. I have'nt look at it in depth so I don't know if it is possible to use AddPhone to create a device profile. Since there are two separate methods my guess is that there is something more that differs than the class.
Kind regards,
//Dan

....,
Dont know if im being silly here but when i add phone through CCMADMIN on CCM (4.1.3) i dont enter a device name...
i put in the mac and a description and it appears to prefix the MAC with SEP to create the device name automatically

Dan - Thanks for pointing that out - I had incorrectly assumed it to be for Default Device Profiles..
Looks like that should do the trick.
