Cisco meeting place 8.0 upgrade media download or PUT and upgrade process?

[dan hale]

Hello all, I have been given the task to upgrade our cisco meeting place sever version 8.0.1.3 on both the app server and web sever.

We have a valid UCSS and I would like to go to version 8.5 Is this something I can order via PUT or can I download one of the upgrades I see on cisco's website?

Also I'm a little confused on the upgrade process. I've read another post that I have to export the exsisting data then do a fresh install of 8.5 then import the data..... Is this true?

Thanks,

Dan
