CUCM 7.1.3 and CUCN 7.0.2 best practices for graceful shutdown for physical move

What steps should I take to gracefully shutdown and bring back up a call manager cluster?  I need to move the publisher and subscriber to a new physical location.

Hi there,

For Shutdown the recommended steps would be to shut down Sub(s) 1st followed by Pub. Once you've done the shutdown on Sub wait until it's fully down before starting next box (ping -t is your friend)

From cli

utils system shutdown

This command allows you to restart the system on the same partition, restart the system on the inactive partition, or shut down the system.

Command Syntax

utils system {restart | shutdown | switch-version}

Usage Guidelines

The utils system shutdown command provides a 5-minute timeout. If the system does not shut down within 5 minutes, the command gives you the option of doing a forced shutdown.

Requirements

Command privilege level: 1

Allowed during upgrade: No

For startup Pub first followed by Sub(s) again wait until Pub is fully up (services etc) before

moving to next box.

Cheers!

Thanks Rob for the support that is what I understand.  Is there anything to do with the database? or other database to voice mail Unity or Cisco emergency responder?
