UC Overbuild Overview
-----------------------

.. tip:: 

   :ref:`use-action-search-to-navigate-automate`



The **UC Overbuild Overview** tool (``view/OverbuildOverview``) validates your *run overbuild* process. 

Overbuild users can use individual device models to ensure that the required
Cisco UCM elements have been moved to the right hierarchy.
   
The **UC Overbuild Overview** tool can be used at the customer or site hierarchy. The report shows the numbers of each 
Cisco UCM 
customer-specific data, for example phones, lines, users, etc., at the selected 
hierarchy and below. This is displayed in the format "current hierarchy/below."
For example, "390/20" means that 390 elements are at the current hierarchy and
20 elements are at hierarchies below the current hierarchy. Change the hierarchy
to inspect the overbuild overview at that hierarchy.

When running the **UC Overbuild Overview** tool at site level, the number on the right will always 
show as 0, since site is the lowest Automate hierarchy level.

To verify the individual device models after running Overbuild, search for the model name for the 
device mode. The hierarchy where each
device model instance exists will be listed in the far right column in the list view of the device model.
