Deleting System Contacts

Bulk Administration Manager allows you to delete Cisco Unity Connection system contacts listed in a CSV file, by using either a wizard or a command line interface.

Refer to the "Constructing the Input CSV Files" section as you create the CSV file. Then, see the applicable section, depending on the method you plan to use to delete system contacts:

Using the Wizard to Delete System Contacts

To Use the Wizard to Delete System Contacts

  2. Double-click Bulk Administration Manager.
  3. On the Cisco Unity Connection Bulk Administration Manager Welcome page, click Next.
  4. On the Select Operation screen, click Delete.
  5. Click System Contacts, and click Next.
  6. On the Select Files screen, in the CSV File field, enter the full path to the CSV input file or browse to the applicable file.

    9. If the operation resulted in any failures, you can immediately inspect the failed objects report file by clicking View Failed Objects File. For information about correcting errors, see "Correcting Errors with Creating, Updating, or Deleting Objects by Using the Failed Objects File".

Using the Command Line Interface to Delete System Contacts

The command to delete Cisco Unity Connection users with voice mail by using information from a CSV file is

BulkAdministrationManager /Delete /SystemContacts /Input:"<Full path to the CSV input file>" /Failed:"<Full path to the failed objects report file>"

When the following command is run, Bulk Administration Manager reads information from the file deletesystemcontacts.csv to delete system contacts, and reports failures to the file deletesystemcontacts.failed.csv.

BulkAdministrationManager /delete /systemcontacts /input:"c:\program files\csv\deletesystemcontacts.csv" /failed:"c:\program files\csv\deletesystemcontacts.failed.csv"

 

Note that the command line arguments are not case sensitive, and that the order of the options is unimportant.

For information about correcting errors, see "Correcting Errors with Creating, Updating, or Deleting Objects by Using the Failed Objects File".
