Selecting Line Association in remote destinations using BAT

[jerome.williams]

                   I was able to use BAT to insert the remote destinations on the remote destination profiles but unable to BAT the option to have the line association box checked.  I have 600+ profile to insert.  Is there a way to use BAT to select the line association when I insert the remote destinations?

Jerome,

You can use the  BAT import/Export tool. What you can do is export the existing Remote destination configs...Then edit the CSV file...You will see the associated line number on the file as well as the associated RDP. Edit at you want and then save the new file (using the same file name). You will then use a tar archive programm like 7zip to zipp this file and the header file that downloaded with the export (you can name the archive file anything). Once you have archive it in a tar format..Use BAT import./export to import the new file into cucm and bingo you are done...Now difficult..What you need to be careful about is the header file..You may need to adjust the time on the file to reflect the time you will e importing the file back to cucm

I have the correct associated line.  The problem is the line association check box is not selected after inserting the users.  I don't see the field in the export to modify this as true/false.  I have to go into individual records and check the box then save.  I was trying to prevent doing that when I add the other 600+ users.

I have just done an export and import job and the line association was ticked...

There is a filed in the export called

ASSOCIATED LINE NUMBER 1

This is the field DN that will have the line association ticked...If you do as I explained it works

The field is populated with the correct DNs but does not check the box when it is inserted.   Tested several times.
