Upgrade path from Unity / Exchange to Unity Connection 7.1

[matthubach]

Has anyone found (perhaps doesn't exist) an upgrade path from Unity / Exchange 4.1 to Unity Connection 7.1?

It will likely require a new server, but I just performed this migration.  You also have to be on Unity 4.0(5) or higher in order to perform the migration.  You use the COBRAS Export tool for Unity to grab the majority of system data and the COBRAS Import tool for Connection to migrate data over.  Read up on COBRAS here:

If you have other questions, let me know.

Actually, the whole process is fully documented:

Migrating from Cisco Unity 4.x or Later to  Cisco Unity Connection 7.x

As Hailey mentioned COBRAS is the key tool for this.
