CDR/CMR files on CallManager 7.x using CLI commands

jays_jara

Level 1

Is there a way to view the size and contents of the CDR files on CallManager 7.x using CLI commands? I’m trying to figure out which files to look at and where they would be located. I’d like to open the file(s) and determine how many CDR records, on average, exist and how large file(s) actually is/are.

The quickest method is just to send them to a billing server, this can be a basic FTP server or an accounting package. The Publisher will send the CDR's and CMR's (If enabled) every 1 min (The default).

Typically the files are a few kb each, depending on the amount of traffic on the UCM.

You can also export a specified period of calls as a CSV file and process the data through our accounting package if you are interested, we offer free trials via www.tri-line.com/cisco

Our products auto configure all the users, UDP's, handsets, depts, gateways etc based on the UCM configuration.

Just found this post which has some CLI examples you might be interested in http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1524902

go to the CLI and issue the following commands:

admin:file list activelog cm/cdr_repository/car/

 

The output of the above command will be the following

 

admin:file list activelog cm/cdr_repository/car/

dir count = 32, file count = 0

admin:

As we can see above each directory represents a day of collection, now we need to know

if we have files inside each directory, if indeed CDR is collecting information, we should

see files inside each directory, a file inside each folder will represent about 1 or 2 min of collection.

to do this will issue the following command:

For example we will take a look at date 20090117

 

admin:file list activelog cm/cdr_repository/car/20090117

 

The output will be the following:

 

admin:file list activelog cm/cdr_repository/car/20090117

As you can see above, CDR is indeed collecting data starting at 0000 hours on date 20090117

so far we know that data is being collected but we are unable to see it via the car gui,

at this point we could either get a file exported to an sftp server or we can actually see it

raw in the cli, to see the contents of a file we need to use the following command.

For example lets take a look at the following file which represents collection date 20090117 and

time 1333 hours

admin:file view activelog cm/cdr_repository/car/20090117/cmr_PUBLISHERNAME_03_200901171333_4040

The output will be the following:
