Viewing a desktop background in UCM

[watchdovr]

Where can i find the "list.xml" files to view?
I can see the list.xml file name in the UCM OS admin, but is there a way to "view" the files in the list?
The directory listed is "dektops/640x480x24", is this on the server ?

I want to take one of the PNG files that is already there and make a change.
I do not have the orginal "picture" so i was hoping to download the current file, make the change then upload it back.

We are running UCM 7.1
Thanks everyone

As far as I know by using the TFTP File Management, you can only upload. It is possible to retrieve files from the CUCM server but doing so is unsupported. To do so you would first need "root" access to the system, fairly simple to do. Please keep in mind that this is UNSUPPORTED!!!

Basically, all that you would need to do is to gain root access to the server, ssh into it, run a command such as:

find / -name <filename.png or *.png>

use another command such as:

scp /<path-to-file>/<filename> username@192.168.1.10:/<path-to-save-file>/

scp is a secure copy command common to all linux/unix systems, make sure you have a Nix system around to copy the file to. Make any changes you want. Then upload the image back to the UCM server via the TFTP File Management interface. Voila, you're done. Make certain to LOG OUT as root from the UCM server. Also, please be extremely careful when logged in as root, as improper use of the account can cause irreparable harm to your CUCM install. IMHO, best to work with things like that on a non-production system.

Good luck, any further questions, feel free to email me at rmcgurn@rcserveny.com.
