Cisco Prime Collabortion tools and Multiple Clusters

[cjguinn]

I am running the below UC Applications:

CUCM - 10.5.2
CUC - 10.5.1
CER - 10.0.2
UCCX - 10.5.1
CUPS - 10.5.2

I use the below Prime Collaboration Tools to manage them

Prime Collaboration Deployment - 10.5.1
Prime Collaboration Assurance - 10.5.0
Prime Collaboration Provisioning - 10.5.0
Prime License Manager - 10.0.1

I am looking at installing another CUCM Cluster with Unity Connection and Cisco Unified Presence running the latest 11.X release.

Do I need to upgrade my Prime management tools to the latest in order to manage both clusters?  Will htis have any impact on my 10.5.X apps if I do?

You will need PC 11. x to pick up the new CUCM 11.x support. 

I would upgrade to the latest PC which is 11.5 for PCA and 11.2 for PCP (though PCP 11.5 comes out this month).  The 10.x apps will not notice the change. 

Monitoring will show the results from the 10/11 clusters and PCP knows the difference between settings and services on the 10/11 clusters.
