Upgrade Unity connection from 2.1.2 to 9.1.2 on UCS

[Ibrahim Shaik]

Hi All,

We are planning to upgrade Unity Connection (2.1.2) 6.1.2.1000-380 from MCS to UCS 9.1.

Hardware: MCS 7845H2

CPU Type	Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5140 @ 2.33GHz
Memory	4096 Mbytes

Software: 6.1.2.1000-380

Version: 2.1.2

I need to know the path that should I follow to upgrade with complete DRS and voice mails backup to new 9.1.v.

Can I do bridge upgrade on MCS server to 9.1.2 and take DRS to build new virtual server on UCS server.

Regards,

I take it your current version is 6.1.2?

Check out the following for supported upgrades:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/9x/release/notes/912cucrn.html#wp1232121

You can upgrade from the following versions of Unity Connection directly to version 9.1(2):

•9.0

•8.6(x)

•8.5(x)

•8.0(3x), 8.0(2x), and 8.0(1)

•7.1(5x) and 7.1(3x)

So, you will first need to go to one of these versions.

To see if your MCS server can be used as bridge server check out release notes for the particular version you are going to to ensure it is compatible.

HTH,

Chris
