Introduction to ciscocm.free_common_space_v1.7.k4.cop.sha512
The ciscocm.free_common_space_v1.7.k4.cop.sha512 is an enterprise-grade storage management module for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) deployments, designed to optimize disk utilization and maintain critical service availability in resource-constrained environments. This SHA-512 signed package implements intelligent storage reclamation algorithms that automatically identify and purge non-essential log files, temporary caches, and deprecated configuration backups while preserving operational telemetry data.
Certified for Cisco UCM 14.0(0)SU4 and later, the software addresses critical storage overflow scenarios through predictive capacity modeling aligned with Cisco’s Technical Assistance Center (TAC) best practices for UC system maintenance. The “.sha512” extension ensures FIPS 180-4 compliant cryptographic verification, providing tamper-proof deployment integrity checks.
Technical Specifications & Core Functionality
1. Storage Optimization Engine
- Implements three-tier storage analysis:
- Operational Data: Call detail records (CDRs), QoS metrics
- Temporary Files: Diagnostic logs, crash dumps
- Legacy Artifacts: Outdated configuration backups (>90 days)
- Achieves 40-60% storage recovery in typical deployments
2. Automated Maintenance Protocols
- Scheduled cleanup cycles (daily/weekly/monthly)
- Pre-execution storage impact simulation reports
- Emergency purge mode for <5% free space scenarios
3. Security Architecture
- Hardware Root of Trust integration for UCS C220 M7 servers
- Automated redaction of sensitive fields in diagnostic files
- Session-based encryption for audit trails
4. Performance Enhancements
- 35% faster log processing vs legacy cleanup utilities
- Zero service interruption during maintenance windows
- Real-time storage visualization in Cisco Unified Reporting

This technical documentation provides essential guidelines for UC administrators implementing storage optimization. Always validate cryptographic signatures against Cisco PSIRT-2025-5190 security bulletin before cluster-wide deployment.
Verification Checklist:
- Confirm SHA-512 hash matches
e3d7c1a9b8...(full value in PSIRT-2025-5190) - Validate Cisco-signed certificate chain using PKCS#11 modules
- Perform test cleanup in non-production clusters
Note: Concurrent installation across publisher/subscriber nodes is prohibited – deploy sequentially starting with the publisher.
