Please review the following important notes before installing this patch:
ZDU to 2.0.1.7 on 11.2 must include workaround to Database defect 9345099
Search Service Refactoring Requires Additional Configuration
Rollback of this patch is not supported. Before applying this patch, take a backup of both Beehive Database and the Beehive Oracle home.
Set ORACLE_HOME environment variable to your Beehive Oracle home. For example, setenv ORACLE_HOME /app/oracle/products/beehive
Ensure that the Database instance and TNS Listener are up and running.
Ensure Beehive processes are gracefully started and all services are running before shutting down.
Beekeeper cannot be used without applying the 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set.
BEEKEEPER home can be patched after at least one midtier has been patched in a multi-midtier environment (OR) after all midtiers are patched.
Apply the one-off patch for database bug 8440319 (only for 11.1.0.7.0) if not yet applied in Database Oracle home before applying this patch set. Check the README.txt in that patch after unzipping for applying the patch. Make sure post-patch steps are executed as documented in the README.txt. Failure to do that will result in failure when applying this Oracle Beehive patch set.
When Applying the Patch on 1.5.1.x to 2.0.1.0 Environment
If you are applying the patch set in an 1.5.1.x --> 2.0.1.0 upgraded environment in a Beekeeper home, perform the following mentioned workaround before applying the patch set (This is only in Beekeeper upgraded home).
% cd $ORACLE_HOME/.patch_storage% unzip<patch_extract_location>/13361024/Beehive_20170/custom/scripts/beepatch/9041410_workaround.zip
When Applying the Patch on 2.0.1.0.0, 2.0.1.1.0 or 2.0.1.2.0 Environment
If applying on 2.0.1.0.0, 2.0.1.1.0 or 2.0.1.2.0 installation, shutdown all the processes in all Beehive midtiers including BEEKEEPER and DMZ homes before applying the patch set.
When Applying the Patch on 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 Environment
If applying on 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0 or 2.0.1.6.0 installation, these are ZDU (Zero Downtime Upgrade) and you need not shutdown all midtiers. Shutdown the processes only in the midtier where the patch set is getting applied.
Schema Cloning will be done when applied on top of 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0.
When upgrading to 2.0.1.7 on database 11.2, follow the steps below to workaround the database bug 9345099.
Before attempting a ZDU, log in to your Oracle Beehive database as SYS using SQL*Plus, and enter the following command:
ALTER SYSTEM SET EVENT = '31151 trace name context forever, level 0x100' scope=spfile SID='*';
For each database instance, set the following event:
ALTER SYSTEM SET EVENTS '31151 trace name context forever, level 0x100';
Do not disable the event after the upgrade is done.
|
Note: Add the above mentioned event to the list of existing events, ensuring not to overwrite any existing events that you may have set. |
|
Note: Ensure that all the steps for ZDU are strictly followed. |
Before applying this (or any) patch on Oracle Beehive, always review the latest Oracle Beehive Release Notes for complete information about known issues, workarounds, and new features in Oracle Beehive. You can find PDF and HTML versions of the Release Notes on the Oracle Technology Network Web site, at the following URL:
Before applying this (or any) patch on Oracle Beehive, ensure there is sufficient hard drive space on the Oracle Beehive server. Oracle recommends at least 10 GB of free space.
If you are installing this patch on 2.0.1.2.0 or earlier, the patch includes a refactoring of the Oracle Beehive Search Service (which was added in 2.0.1.2.1). This is a substantial change which may require additional post-configuration steps:
The existing search index is erased during patching. As a result, after the upgrade any search operation on existing data will return no results. You can perform post-installation steps to build a new search index of existing artifacts, using a new beectl command, beectl add_search_recovery_scope.
If you are using Oracle Secure Enterprise Search (SES) with Oracle Beehive, you must take additional steps to configure SES integration.
After the upgrade, the search service is enabled, new objects will be indexed, and default values for partitioning, jobs, and search service parameters are set. Depending on your deployment, you may need to make further configuration changes to tune the search service.
For a brief summary of post-installation steps, see Search Service Post-Installation Configuration. For a detailed explanation of the new search service and its configuration, see MetaLink note 1135054.1.
Depending on whether your Oracle Beehive deployment uses Oracle RAC nodes or not, configure data directories for data pump jobs as per the instructions at:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16671_01/bh.200/e16641/upgrade_overview.htm#CJAHGGEC
You must conform to each of the following requirements and perform all pre-installation tasks before installing the patch:
|
Caution: Failure to carefully read and understand these requirements may cause Oracle Beehive to malfunction, including interruption of service, loss of data, or both. |
Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set can only be installed on Oracle Beehive Release 2 (2.0.1.0.0, 2.0.1.1.0, 2.0.1.2.0, 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4, 2.0.1.5, and 2.0.1.6). If you have an earlier version of Oracle Beehive, you must first upgrade to Oracle Beehive Release 2, before applying this patch.
Before installing 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set, Oracle strongly recommends that you perform a backup of your database and the Oracle Beehive Oracle home.
In a multi-midtier environment, you must install this patch in every Oracle Beehive Oracle home, including Application tiers, Oracle Beehive DMZ Oracle Homes, Oracle Beehive Coexistence Connector Oracle Homes, and Oracle Beekeeper Oracle Homes.
Patch has to be applied in the midtiers one by one. All processes in that midtier will be started at the end of patch set.
Unless you are patching an Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 deployment, before installing this patch set, shut down all processes on all Oracle Beehive Application tiers, including Oracle Beekeeper, Oracle Beehive Coexistence Connector, and Oracle Beehive DMZ Oracle homes. Make sure that all Oracle Beehive processes were started normally prior to shutting them down.
If you are patching an Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 deployment, you may perform a Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU) patch. In this case, you can leave your Oracle Beehive Application tiers up and running, only shutting down one Application tier server at a time when you patch that server. The ZDU method allows you to avoid downtime of your Oracle Beehive deployment.
Each of your Oracle Beehive servers will be started automatically as you apply the patch set to them.
You must disable fast validation in the database before installing Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set.
Log in to your Oracle Beehive database as SYS using SQL*Plus, and enter the following command:
ALTER SYSTEM SET "_disable_fast_validate"=TRUE SCOPE=BOTH SID= '*';
After you install the Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set, you can re-enable fast validation using the following commands:
ALTER SYSTEM RESET "_disable_fast_validate" SCOPE=SPFILE SID='*'; ALTER SYSTEM SET "_disable_fast_validate"=FALSE SCOPE=MEMORY SID='*';
If you have not already done so (such as when applying a previous patch), apply the one-off patch for Oracle Database bug 8440319 (only for 11.1.0.7.0) in your Oracle Beehive database Oracle home before applying this patch set. Review the README in that patch after unzipping for instructions for applying the patch. Perform all post-patch steps as documented in that README. This Oracle Beehive patch will fail if the post-patch steps are not performed.
Bug 10134218. If you have upgraded your Oracle Database to 11.2, you may require a patch in order to successfully install the Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set.
If both of the following conditions are true:
You have patched from Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.0 to either 2.0.1.2.1 or 2.0.1.3.0
After performing the patch, you upgraded your Oracle Database from version 11.1 to 11.2
Then you must apply a special patch, else the Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set will fail during installation.
|
Note: If you do not apply the required patch and you experience the failure during the Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set, you can still apply the 10134218 patch at that time, and then complete the 2.0.1.7.0 installation. |
If you need to apply this special patch, contact Oracle Support to get the correct version of the 10134218 patch for your operating system and upgrade scenario.
If you are using Oracle Database 11.1.0.7.x, install patch 7311226 so that Oracle text index full optimization can resume where it left off on the next run. If you are using 11.2.x.x or higher, you do not need to install the patch.
If you are using Oracle Database 11.2.0.3, install patch 13922299 for Oracle Beehive search to work. This patch is required for any Oracle Beehive version using Oracle Database 11.2.0.3.

To install 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set for Oracle Beehive Release 2 (2.0.1.0.0, 2.0.1.1.0, 2.0.1.2.0, 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0), perform the following steps on each Oracle Beehive server and Oracle Beekeeper Oracle home in your deployment:
Make sure that the Oracle Beehive Database instance and TNS Listener are up and running. If any standby databases are defined, then make sure the standby databases listeners are stopped.
If you are applying this Cumulative Patch on Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0,2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0, shut down all processes in the Oracle Beehive Application tier where the patch will be applied, before applying this patch set. Other Application tiers (including DMZ installations) can be up and running when applying the patch on a given Application tier. (Oracle Beekeeper instances must be shut down.)
If you are patching an Oracle Beehive Coexistence Connector instance (any version), you must shut down all processes in the Coexistence Connector Oracle home before applying the patch.
|
Note: This means that when updating from 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 to 2.0.1.7.0, you can perform a rolling patch by patching one Application tier at a time, without shutting down your Oracle Beehive deployment. (You cannot use the rolling patch method when updating from any previous version.) |
Make sure that Oracle Beehive processes were gracefully started and all services were running before shutting down a given Application tier.
|
Note: If you have not deployed Oracle Universal Records Management (URM), the Records Management Service will be disabled. You do not need to enable this service prior to patching.However, all other Oracle Beehive services must be enabled and running before you shut down your Oracle Beehive deployment, including services you may normally leave disabled, such as the Device Management Service. |
Unzip the downloaded package to a convenient location.
On Linux and UNIX only, set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located. For example:
% cd <directory_name>
where, <directory_name> is the directory where the current patch is located.
(You do not need to take this step on Windows.)
If you are patching an Oracle Beehive server, set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to your Oracle Beehive Oracle home. For example:
On UNIX and Linux platforms:
% setenv ORACLE_HOME /app/oracle/products/beehive
On Windows:
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\Beehive_Home
If you are patching an Oracle Beekeeper instance, set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to your Oracle Beekeeper Oracle home. For example:
On UNIX and Linux platforms:
% setenv ORACLE_HOME /app/oracle/products/2.0.1.7.0/beekeeper_1
On Windows:
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\Beekeeper_Home
Use the following commands to apply the patch:
When applying the patch to the first Oracle Beehive (non-DMZ, non-Beekeeper, non-coexistence connector) instance, run the opatch command with the -first_midtier option:
|
Note: Do not start with a DMZ instance. You must patch a non-DMZ instance first.When using RAC database with non-ASM configuration, if you want the patch to use only a particular node, you can provide the connect string for that node only in the below command (as the |
% $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply -post -sys_passwd <sys password> -dbconnstr "(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=<db hostname>)(PORT=<db listen port>))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=<db service name>)))" -first_midtier -opatch_post_end
|
Note: On Windows, omit the double-quotes surrounding the value of-dbconnstr:
patch.bat napply -post -sys_passwd <sys password> -dbconnstr (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=<db hostname>)(PORT=<db listen port>))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=<db service name>))) -first_midtier -opatch_post_end |
When applying the patch to additional Oracle Beehive (non-DMZ, non-Beekeeper, non-coexistence connector) instances, run the opatch command without the -first_midtier option:
% $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply -post -sys_passwd <sys password> -dbconnstr "(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=<db hostname>)(PORT=<db listen port>))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=<db service name>)))" -opatch_post_end
|
Note: On Windows, omit the double-quotes surrounding the value of-dbconnstr:
patch.bat napply -post -sys_passwd <sys password> -dbconnstr (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=<db hostname>)(PORT=<db listen port>))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=<db service name>))) -opatch_post_end |
When applying the patch to a separate Oracle Beekeeper Oracle home.
|
Note:
|
On UNIX and Linux:
% $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply
On Windows:
patch.bat napply
When applying the patch to an Oracle Beehive DMZ instance Oracle home, use the following command:
On UNIX and Linux:
% $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply
On Windows:
patch.bat napply
|
Note: After applying a patch, Oracle Beehive will attempt to restart a patched instance, including DMZ instances. However, if you have not yet performed the Update hasbind File Ownership post-installation step, a DMZ instance may be unable to use privileged ports. In this case, shut down the DMZ instance, and restart it after performing post-installation steps. |
When applying the patch to an Oracle Beehive Coexistence Connector Oracle home, use the following command:
On UNIX and Linux:
% $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply -post -password <OC4J Admin Password> -opatch_post_end
On Windows:
patch.bat napply -post -password <oc4jadmin password > -opatch_post_end
The value of <oc4jadmin password> is the password initially entered for the OC4J admin account when you installed the Oracle Beehive Coexistence Connector in this deployment.
Be sure to repeat all steps in this procedure on each Oracle Beehive server in your deployment.
After performing the installation, perform the steps in the following sections, where applicable:
On Linux and UNIX Oracle Beehive servers, if your $ORACLE_HOME/beehive/bin/hasbind file was owned by root (in order to use privileged ports) before applying this patch, be sure to change it back to ownership by the root user. For example, you could execute the following commands using an account with superuser privileges:
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/beehive/bin $ chown root hasbind $ chmod a+x hasbind $ chmod a+s hasbind
|
See Also: For more information about thehasbind file and reasons for modifying it, see "Modifying Oracle Beehive Ports using Privileged Port Numbers" in Chapter 5, "Managing Oracle Beehive Services" in the Oracle Beehive Administrator's Guide. |
After you install the Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7.0 Cumulative Patch Set, you can re-enable fast validation using the following commands:
ALTER SYSTEM RESET "_disable_fast_validate" SCOPE=SPFILE SID='*'; ALTER SYSTEM SET "_disable_fast_validate"=FALSE SCOPE=MEMORY SID='*';
If, and only if, you installed this patch on Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0, since the patch involves schema cloning, you must run the post_upgrade_db_actions.pl script.
If you installed this patch on Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.0 or earlier, you do not need to run this script.
|
Note: When you enter the<CONNECT_STRING> argument for the perl script, you must enclose it in double-quotes. |
For complete instructions, see "Running Perl Script post_upgrade_db_actions.pl," in Chapter "Upgrading Oracle Beehive Overview" of the Oracle Beehive Installation Guide for your platform.
Starting with 2.0.1.7.0, after running the Perl script post_upgrade_db_action.pl, execute the following beectl command on all Beehive instances:
beectl modify_local_configuration_files
Bug 9722573. After applying this patch, you must run a SQL script to clean up group membership data in UDS. Log in to your Oracle Beehive database using SQL Plus as the current BEE_CODE user, and run the script uds_post_upgrade_seed.sql. The script is located in the following folder:
BEEHIVE_HOME/beehive/tmp/patch/13361024/db
After upgrading to Oracle Beehive Release 2 (2.0.1.7) and before your users access your upgrade Oracle Beehive deployment, you must gather statistics about the Oracle Beehive data and code schemas. Else, you may experience serious performance degradation or service interruptions. To know how to gather statistics, refer the following link:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16671_01/bh.200/e16641/upgrade_overview.htm#CJAEAJDC
After the patch is successfully applied, upgrade the inventory version of Oracle Beehive components:
Navigate to the upgrade inventory script in the following location:
<extracted_patch_location>/13361024/Beehive_20170/custom/scripts
Extract the ZIP file containing a script to a folder on your local file system:
In Oracle Beehive instances, extract the files from the following .zip:
BeehiveVersionUpgradeTo20170.zip
In Oracle Beekeeper instances, extract the files from the following .zip:
BeekeeperVersionUpgradeTo20170.zip
A subdirectory containing the script is created.
Run the shell script as follows:
In Oracle Beehive instances:
For Linux and UNIX:
% BeehiveVersionUpgradeTo20170.sh <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
or for Windows:
% BeehiveVersionUpgradeTo20170.bat <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
In Oracle Beehive DMZ and Coexistence Connector instances:
For UNIX and Linux:
% BeehiveVersionUpgradeTo20170.sh <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
or for Windows:
% BeehiveVersionUpgradeTo20170.bat <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
In Oracle Beekeeper instances:
For UNIX and Linux:
% BeekeeperVersionUpgradeTo20170.sh <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
or for Windows:
% BeekeeperVersionUpgradeTo20170.bat <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME>
Where <PATH_TO_ORACLE_HOME> is the path of the Oracle home (Oracle Beehive or Oracle Beekeeper) that you are upgrading
Repeat steps 1 through 3 on all Oracle Beehive and Oracle Beekeeper instances whose inventories need to be updated to 2.0.1.7.0.
To verify that the inventory on an instance has been updated, perform the following steps:
Navigate to the following directory:
% cd <Updated_Beekeeper_ORACLE_HOME>/oui/bin
or
% cd <Upgraded_Beehive_ORACLE_HOME>/oui/bin
Start Oracle Universal Installer by invoking the runInstaller in this directory:
% ./runInstaller
or, on Windows:
% setup.exe
In the Oracle Universal Installer interface, click Installed Products. An inventory window will open.
In the inventory window, you can see all of the Oracle home names on the current host. Expand your Oracle Beehive or Oracle Beekeeper name by clicking on the plus (+) just before it. Confirm that the version number is now Beehive Release 2 (2.0.1.7.0) or Oracle Beekeeper 2.0.1.7.0.
To confirm the versions of other subcomponents, expand Oracle Beehive or Oracle Beekeeper 2.0.1.7.0 by clicking on the plus (+) just before it. Traverse through the list of subcomponents and confirm the following upgraded components:
On Oracle Beehive:
Oracle Beehive Release 2 Configuration 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Database Support 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Binaries 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Libraries 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Services 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Configuration Wizard 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Commuication and Messaging Services 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Oneoffs 2.0.1.7.0
On Windows, also confirm:
Oracle Collaboration Coexistence Gateway 2.0.1.7.0
On Oracle Beekeeper:
Oracle Beekeeper 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beekeeper OC4J 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Oneoffs 2.0.1.7.0 Oracle Beehive Release 2 Configuration Wizard 2.0.1.7.0
The Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.3.0 Cumulative Patch (which is included in this cumulative patch set) included a refactoring of the Oracle Beehive Search Service. This is a substantial change which may require additional post-configuration steps in the following areas:
If you installed this patch on Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.0 or earlier, the existing search index is erased during patching. As a result, after the upgrade any search operation on existing data will return no results.
If you installed this patch on Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 and used the Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU) method, search indexing is suspended during the patching process. Changes in the system that occurred during patching are not indexed.
You can build a new search index of existing artifacts, using a new beectl command, beectl add_search_recovery_scope:
beectl add_search_recovery_scope --scope <recovery_scope> [--entity_type <entity_type>] [--start_date <start_date>] [--end_date <end_date>]
Where:
<recovery_scope> is the identifier for a level of scope for the utility to crawl for indexing, such as enterprise, organization, workspace, or folder.
<entity_type> indicates searchable entity types. You can specify this option more than once to indicate multiple entities types to index. If you omit this option, all entity types are searched and indexed.
<start_date> recovers search index for entities modified on or after this date. If not specified, 30 days before the present will be used as the start date. Permitted value is a string in ISO8601 date-time format. Valid formats are yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SS'Z', yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SS, yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z', yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss, yyyy-MM-dd'Z', yyyy-MM-dd.
<end_date> recovers search index for entities modified before or on this date. If not specified, the present will be used as the end date. Use the same format as for <start_date>.
As soon as you issue an add_search_recovery_scope command, Oracle Beehive starts the background work and immediately returns an operation ID. You can use the operation ID with the beectl list_operation_statuses command to track the progress of the recovery job.
beectl list_operation_statuses --operation_status 1CF3:35AF:opst:6828B43CD3944E06A5CD425F0225CF2500000000004C
The add_search_recovery_scope command will immediately add a list of all artifacts identified by the run time options to a queue of items to be indexed. Adding too many items to this queue at once will slow down the system. Oracle recommends reviewing the Recovery Crawler section of Oracle Support Note 1135054.1 prior to running the command.
To minimize performance impact, consider the following strategies:
Run the recovery crawler command during off-peak hours
Create a batch file to recover a few personal or team workspaces or a few days of email data at a time
Monitor the SS_FEEDS load (information in Oracle Support Note 1135054.1)
If you are using Oracle Secure Enterprise Search (SES) with Oracle Beehive, if you have not already done so (such as after installing the 2.0.1.2.1, 2.0.1.3.0, 2.0.1.4.0, 2.0.1.5.0, or 2.0.1.6.0 patch set) you must take additional steps to configure SES integration. The following procedure provides a high-level outline of the actual configuration steps. For complete instructions, see MetaLink Note 1135054.1.
Perform the following steps to configure SES integration:
Perform the complete procedure for basic SES integration as detailed in Chapter 10, "Integrating Oracle Secure Enterprise Search 10g with Oracle Beehive" of the Oracle Beehive Integration Guide.
If needed, configure your Identity Management solution with the appropriate host, port, realm, and other connection settings.
If needed, create source groups (groupings of data sources, which appear as tabs above the search box).
From the SES Admin console, set up a title URL for Oracle Beehive search results by creating new search attributes, and then modifying the XSL stylesheet to include the new attributes.
From the SES Admin console, add Oracle Beehive search result attributes and filtering attributes.
Beehive Conferencing introduced a new Java-based architecture that can be used by end users without requiring any Operating System-specific desktop installation. One of the many advantages of this new architecture is the ability to leverage Java to auto-detect, auto-install, and auto-update all the necessary components required by Beehive Conferencing to run. Therefore, for a user to join a conference, the Beehive Conferencing application needs to access the following resource:
JavaScript code (deployJava.js) for launching Java applications and detecting JRE versions.
Out of the box, Beehive Conferencing uses the "official" versions of these files by accessing the file through the java.com site over the web. This can cause some issues if a user doesn't have access to the internet, can't access the java.com site (for example, it is unavailable at that time), and/or does not have their proxy settings configured correctly.

10387187 - AA extension dialing voice mail issue with older Cisco IOS
If a call (arriving via PSTN) is not answered by a user and is thus redirected to the Beehive auto attendant, the call drops when it reaches the VXML router. This only happens with calls originating via PSTN. The issue only occurs with older versions of the Cisco IOS v12.2. With newer version of Cisco IOS the call will make it through.
