[cisco-voip] 6.1.3 Upgrade - new licence?

[Chris Ward]

Hi Steven,

Found this:

³Software Feature License

When you upgrade from any supported release of Cisco Unified Communications
Manager to Release 6.1(3), you must download and install a software feature
license to activate the new features. The Cisco Unified Communication
Administration Guide indicates that you must install a software feature
license only if you are upgrading from 5.x or 6.x releases. You also need a
license if you are upgrading from supported 4.x releases. For instructions
about how to obtain and install a software feature license, see the "License
File Upload" chapter in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager
Administration Guide.²

This is misleading.

Wes¹ comments apply if you are using a demo license. However, if you are
using CUCM with legit licenses on 6.1.1b, upgrading to 6.1.3 will require no
new licenses.

HTH

This is stated in various sections related to licencing.

An upgrade from 6.1.1b to 6.1.3 requires no new/different licensing. Within
any major release, the licensing remains the same; IE 5.X, 6.X, 7.X.

Can you send a link to where you found this note?

 Reading thru the release notes for upgrading my lab from 6.1.1b to 6.1.3.
Documentation states that you must download a new software feature licence
to get the Call Manager service to run. What is the rational behind that?! I
thought I was done with licencing fiascos when I upgraded from 4.1.3.
Anyway.... can I reuse my original licence or do I need to go through Cisco
licencing?
