Hello,

if the customer don't have UCSS , then you have to buy the upgrade , use this part number :

CUCM-USR-LIC , this is the top level part number for the CUCM 8.X , so when you start configuring it on DCT , there is a part number for migration , it will cost you only 3 USD per user if you choose to buy 3 years UCSS , just ask the customer or if you can check it by your self how many ip phones are connected to the cluster , use this number for the migration part number then at the end of the DCT , choose the server type (in your case you want to upgrade to 8.5) so choose the quantity to 6 (the server license is now free so order the maximum in case in the future you wanted to add a new server there is no need to buy license , only the hardware) , when you finish , click on check configuration and then choose the esw support , however i always prefer to choose SESW (you can have better discount in this case).

If you still need any help let me know , hope this is clear.

Hello,

Yes , it is correct , however you said that you have one unity connection server , you are adding unity HA to your BOQ ???

Other than that it is correct , just don't forget to put the quantity for UCM-7825-85 to 6 , it is free

Hello,

Is it for free , i didn't check that out , if it is free then there is no harm to buy it , i guess it is exactly like the CUCM , now you can put the quantity of the servers to the max for free so i gues you could do that, when your customer needs to add a HA , all what he have to do is to buy the physical server.
