Configuring the Skype for Business or Lync Server

For UC Analytics to collect statistical data from a Skype for Business or a Lync server, the Monitoring role must be installed on the Skype for Business or Lync server and Call Detail Recording (CDR) must be enabled and running.

See the following sections for the steps to configure your Lync or Skype for Business server.

Configuring Lync Server 2010

Microsoft Lync Server gathers statistical data through the Monitoring role and from Active Directory. To collect data from Lync 2010 server, you must install and enable the Monitoring server role on your Lync server.

The procedures are divided into the following parts:

1. Adding the SQL store for monitoring
2. Installing the Monitoring role
3. Enabling Call Detail Recording (CDR)
4. Starting the monitoring services

1. Adding the SQL store for monitoring

As a prerequisite, you must have created a SQL instance which will be used to store the monitoring records. Then you can add your instance to the SQL store in Topology Builder.

To add the SQL store used for monitoring
1
In the Lync Topology Builder, select SQL Store | New SQL Store.
2
Enter the FQDN for the SQL Server and the SQL instance name (if you are not using the default instance).
3
Verify that the new store appears under the SQL stores folder.

2. Installing the Monitoring role

After you extract the .iso file on the Lync server on which you want to install the monitoring server role, you can run the appropriate .msi files to install the roles.

To install the monitoring server role on the Lync server
1
Navigate to the following file path:
\Setup\amd64\Setup\monitoringserver.msi
2
Double-click the monitoringserver.msi file.
3
Follow the steps in the wizard to complete the installation.
