Solved: upgrade CUCM 6.1.5(su3) to 8.5.2

antoinemeunier · ‎05-24-2012

Hello,

I was wondering if the CUCM 8.5 is installed on the inactive partition of the CUCM when upgrading from 6.1.5, or if the upgrade is overwriting the CUCM 6.1.5 (like the upgrade to 8.6).

Thanks a lot,

Best regards,

Antoine Meunier

a. To install the upgrade and automatically reboot to the upgraded partition, choose Reboot to upgraded partition. The system restarts and is running the upgraded software

or

1. Choose Do not reboot after upgrade.

2. Click Next.
