[cisco-voip] CallManager 5.1.1 Upgrade to 5.1.1a warning...

[Jonathan Charles]

I couldn't agree more... The essentially live upgrade process and the
CNTRL-Z backout is impressive.

BTW, when you revert back... it REALLY reverts... I didn't realize how many
little things I had done with it.

The coolest part is how easy it is to change a password from the command
line now...
