Hi TK,

Yes, ports need to be built/assigned to both the Pub and Sub

in a Unity Connection cluster

Here's an example;

Voice Messaging Port Configuration for a Connection Cluster

For a Cisco Unity Connection cluster, you must know how the voice messaging ports will function—which ports will answer calls and which ports will dial out (for setting MWIs and for sending message notifications). Depending on the function of the ports, you will assign them to the applicable server in the Connection cluster:

Answering ports	Beginning with the answering port that has the lowest number in its display name, assign half the answering ports to the subscriber server so that the subscriber server will answer most incoming calls. Assign the remaining answering ports to the publisher server.
Dial-out ports (for MWIs and notifications)	Beginning with the dial-out port that has the lowest number in its display name, assign half the dial-out ports to the primary server so that the primary server will handle MWIs and notification calls. Assign the remaining dial-out ports to the subscriber server.

For example, an eight-port system with six answering ports and two dial-out ports can be configured as follows.

Port Function	Port Display Name	Server
Answering	UCM1-001	Subscriber
	UCM1-002	Subscriber
	UCM1-003	Subscriber
	UCM1-004	Publisher
	UCM1-005	Publisher
	UCM1-006	Publisher
Dialing out	UCM1-007	Publisher
	UCM1-008	Subscriber

Under normal conditions, the Cisco Unity Connection cluster will handle calls in the following manner:

•The subscriber server will answer most incoming calls. If no answering ports on the subscriber server are available, the publisher server will answer calls.

•The publisher server will dial out for MWIs and notifications If no dial-out ports on the publisher server are available, the subscriber server will dial out for MWIs and notifications.
