Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

on
Microsoft is rolling a new update to Copilot Notebooks that make collaboration even easier: the ability to share Copilot Notebooks with your colleagues.  Personally, I like Notebooks because they feel almost like small, personal agents I don’t have to configure. They give me a safe space to collect notes and documents and then work on them over time. With this update, that personal space can become a shared space for a selected group of  colleagues, without compromising security or permissions. I think it is also important to note that your chat and chat history within the Notebook stays private. The web rollout began in late October and will finish by December, while mobile access starts in early November and are related to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ( ID 506851 )  You can also read more about the Copilot Notebooks experience on the Microsoft website here . If you like this update and want to stay informed about similar improvements, feel free to follow me on LinkedIn!

Call Manager 4.2 database issue after a publisher failure

on
This is a post for future reference. A customer of mine experienced some strange symptoms on their CUCM’s this week. And it took me some time to figure out what and why.
Issue at hand: When logging on to ccmadmin on the publisher, several ip-phones where not registered. But the phones were operational, and showed no sign of error. When logging on to the subscriber, I found all of the “not registered” phones registered. But all phones registered on the publisher was here “not registered”.
Troubleshooting: I tried booting the CUCMs but it did not help. I tried to restart services and manually fail over phones to one of the CUCMs. But the result was always the same. Whichever CUCM which did not have the phones registered, listed the phones as "not registered”.
Resolution: I’ve seen this before, and suspected a broken SQL link. Running DBHelper confirmed my suspicions, and fixed part of my problems. After recreating the publish/subscribe link in SQL, I expected the call managers to perform normally. But not so. I then booted the subscriber, but nothing changed. Only after booting the publisher first, then followed by the subscriber fixed the problem entirely.
