CM 6.0

I know that some people where asking about upgrade paths for 5.0, 5.1,
etc.



I just seen the upgrade path and if you want to go to any 5.x or 6.0
don't upgrade to 4.3.



Stay with 4.1 if you want to go to either 5.x or 6.0



If you're not concerned with 5.x you can upgrade to 4.2 and still get to
6.0

Re: CM 6.0 [In reply to]

Also note, that Cisco Unified Communications Manager (6.0) Business
Edition, is an upgrade dead-end. According to Cisco there will be no
upgrade path from that server neither to other versions(?), nor to
larger installations.

I find quite amusing the new upgrade-policy @ Cisco. Last year, they
told us at the local Cisco Expo (here in Romania), that 6.0 will be
platform independent. Now 6.0 is out, it's Linux only (not that I have
any problem with that :) ) and they devised a nifty scheme, how to get
more money out of the customers.

Basically, all major upgrades are to be payed for (so far so good, if
it would be justified) But I think whatever would have been like 5.2
(or 5.1(2)), what do you know, it's called 6.0 now, and they will have
for sure one major version upgrade per year.

And now they say 7.0 is going to be platform independent. And they
would probably deny they ever told 6.0 is going to be ;-)

Re: CM 6.0 [In reply to]

As soon as 5.0 came out the plan was announced to be one minor
version in the fall, major version in the spring. 5.1 was released
last fall (and 5.1.2 is out now) and 6.0 will be coming this spring/
summer. Look for 6.1 this fall, and 7.0 should follow next spring.

I have no visibility into the marketing/upgrade path licensing stuff
so can't comment on that part. There was a change from the
originally announced plan for the platform-independent version as
well as which version would be have feature-parity with 4.2 and this
has caused much confusion.

Re: CM 6.0 [In reply to]

If you remember just a year and a half ago, they claimed 5.1 would be
platform independent as well. I've heard 6.0, 6.1 and now 7.0 would
have this. I think they will push it out possibly even farther because
I really don't think Cisco wants to utilize a Microsoft OS if they don't
have too. If/when they come out with one, be ready to pay extra for the
Microsoft version since someone is going to have to pay Mr. Gates for
the OS and SQL and you can bet it won't be Microsoft or Cisco.

My 2 cents.

Re: CM 6.0 [In reply to]

I wonder if we will be on RHE 4 through 2012 unless someone is going to
put money into Matthew Szuliz's pocket for RHE
development/upgrades.....doesn't everyone need their bread buttered?
