WCS 7.0 migration to PI 1.2 licensing help!

[Thomas Park]

Hi.

I have a customer who purchase below sku-s

L-PI12-LF-100-LIC PRIME INFRASTRUCTURE 1.2 - LIFECYCLE - 100 DEVICE LIC PAK 2.00 0.00 2.00 2013-06-19 IKE HALL 100570-V07

L-PILMS42-100-M Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 100 Device Upgrade License 2.00 0.00 2.00 2013-06-19 IKE HALL 100570-V07

L-W-PI12-100-M WCS to Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Migration 100 Device 2.00 0.00 2.00 2013-06-19 IKE HALL 100570-V07

R-PI12-BASE-K9 PRIME INFRASTRUCTURE 1.2 BASE LICENSE AND SOFTWARE 1.00 0.00 1.00 2013-06-19 IKE HALL 100570-V07

R-W-PI12-M-K9 WCS 7.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Migration 1.00 0.00 1.00 2013-06-19 IKE HALL 100570-V07

He's trying to migrate his current WCS 7.0 to PI1.2

Would the above license work?

In order to successfully migrate, what would I need from the WCS 7.0 in order to obtain PI 1.2 license?

This customer is government agency where they can't tie their agency with CCO nor have internet connection.

So that means, I need to make a visit to deliver the new PI1.2 license.

I see that WCS 7.0 to PI, there is no direct upgrade, so my customer has to export files from WCS to NCS 1.1

and again export from NCS 1.1 to PI1.2.  Does that mean I need another license for NCS 1.1 to import/export databases?

I email to licensing@cisco.com but was told that I need to contact Cisco presales or customer support for this

which does not make sense even though this is licensing related. Is the customer support only way to go through the migration?

I desparately need help!

Thanks in advance.

Hello Josunin1975,

I hope you are doing great.

I have researched about the migration from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 and from the list of licenses you listed before the ones that your customer needs are:

• R-W-PI12-M-K9, this is the top level number.
• L-W-PI12-100-M, for 100 devices.

In the following link on table 7, you will find the part numbers neeed depending on the amount of devices.

Also, it is possible to do a direct upgrade from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 and it is not necessary do the upgrade first to NCS. Based on past cases, it is recommended that upgrade be done from version 7.0.230.

Hopefully, this information will help you.

Best Regards.

Hello Cristina,

Are you sure that it is possible to upgrade from WCS 7.0.x to PI 1.2 without going through NCS? In every configuration guide I read that it is not possible if you want to keep existing data.

If you have any migration guide that can help me doing that migration I would really appreciate.

Regards
