When you try to edit a phone after you upgrade to CUCM 12 you get an error of
"Update failed. SSH Password is not valid. SSH Password is an encrypted value containing up to 288 hexadecimal characters (0-9 and A-F)"
You have to run the following command on CLI in irder to clear any password set
run sql update device set sshpassword = '' where name = "SEP1234AAAABBBB"
Technical notes that I believe it worth taking, usually taken during me working on issues and projects.

Cisco FMC FTD user to IP mapping troubleshooting
To check whether user to IP mapping works correctly, SSH to FMC and FTD and run the following commands in order to check if the entries are there
expert
user_map_query.pl -i 10.10.10.10 (to check for IP to user mapping)
user_map_query.pl -u bob (to check user to IP mapping)
If results display "For policy = 1" then this is set to propagate to FTD
Another approach
expert
u2dump /var/sf/user_enforcement/user_ip_map.* > /var/tmp/user-ip-map.dump
vi /var/tmp/user-ip-map.dump

Anyconnect DNS issues on VPN
If you 're facing troubles with clients connecting to VPN and can't resolve DNS please check the following
https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCuz27826/?rfs=qvred
In short
Anyconnect creates a static route on the client for the DHCP server. if your DHCP server also servers as DNS etc. this breaks the DNS resolution for your client.
Apply the following as workaround
group-policy DfltGrpPolicy attributes
webvpn
anyconnect-custom-attr no-dhcp-server-route
anyconnect-custom-data no-dhcp-server-route no-dhcp-server-route true
group-policy <XXX> attributes
anyconnect-custom no-dhcp-server-route value no-dhcp-server-route
