Move Phones (provider deployment)
-----------------------------------

When phones are not assigned to users, you can move them between sites.
Moving a phone between sites handles the situation where a phone is
either physically moved or logically assigned to a different site. If a
phone is assigned in the Associated Devices list of a CUCM User, the
phone is moved as part of a Move User operation. See "Move Users".

Important - the following restrictions apply when you move phones:

* You cannot move phones that are assigned to subscribers.
* You cannot move phones between customers.
* You can move phones only between sites.
* You can move phones only between sites that reference the same
  NDL.
* You can move phones only between sites that have the same type of
  site dial plan.
* You can move phones only between sites that have the same
  country.
* If an Intercom line is associated with a phone, that line will not be
  processed (moved and updated).

You can move phones in two ways:

* **Move phones by names** - To move multiple phones
* **Move phone by name** - To move one specific phone

1. Log in as a provider, reseller, or customer administrator.
2. Set the hierarchy path to the customer whose phones you are moving.
3. Choose **Subscriber Management > Move Phones** or **Overbuild > Move Phones**.
4. In the **Action** field, select the move method.

   *  If you choose **Move phones by names**:

      1. Choose the site from which you are moving the phones from the
         **Move From Hierarchy** drop-down. The **Move To Hierarchy** field
         appears.
      2. Choose the target site from the **Move To Hierarchy** drop-down.
      3. Choose the phones you want to move.
      
         a. To move all phones between the sites, select the **Move All Phones**
            check box.
         b. To choose specific phones, click the **+** next to **Phones**, then
            choose a phone from the drop-down menu. You can type the first
            part of a phone name to narrow the selection list. Repeat this
            step to choose multiple phones.
      4. Click **Save** to move the phones.

   *  If you choose **Move phone by name**:

      1. Choose the phone from the **Phone** drop-down. The **Move To
         Hierarchy** field appears.
      2. Choose the target site from the **Move To Hierarchy** drop-down.
      3. Click **Save** to move the phone.

5. Choose **Subscriber Management > Phones** to verify that the phones are
   moved to the target site.
