Hello, i have a few questions regarding the Jump upgrade process. My lab is set up as follows
I built two VMs for v7.1.5 UC Publisher and Subscriber
I built two VMs for v9.1 UC Publisher and Subscriber
Using Veeam and vCenter, i built a virtual lab that is isolated from our internal LAN and copied our domain controller, NTP Server, SFTP server.
I performed a DRS Backup on the production MCS Publisher and Subscriber.
I performed a DRS Restore on the virtual lab 7.1.5 Publisher and Subscriber.
I tried to upgrade to UC v9.1 but had a licensing issue due to the demo grace period. I called TAC and got that resolved (TAC had to get root access and remove some config).
I was able to upgrade to v9.1 with no problems.
I performed a DRS restore on the new lab v9.1 Publisher and Subscriber.
I confirmed database replication but have no way to test to see if phone will register. i think i'm going to roll the dice and disconnect the MCS servers and move the new lab 9.1 vms to production.
I have a question about applying phone firmware prior to migrating. The instructions on this PDF state on page 14, step 5 to apply phone firmware that corresponds with UC 9.1. Am i supposed to install the actual 9.1 COP file on our production 7.1.5 cluster? Or do i install the newest version of 7.1.5?

We are also planning a migration from Unity v7 to Unity Connection v9.1. I would really like to upgrade the UC Cluster first then a few days later migrate to Unity Connection. Do you know if that is supported?
