[cisco-voip] Why CAD update?

[Jim McBurnett]

I think it is a you changed a service executable or a program that has DLL's running in Memory and to make the dll changes to the dll's running in memory that you have to reboot to clear them from memory to reload them... And when a DLL is shared between some apps, or other processes go figure...

On Exchange all those executables are new services that don't have to be part of a reboot for effectiveness.. of course a patch requires a service restart.
Client side applications are typically like this, server based apps are typically not...

"you wrote to my registry, therefore I must reboot"

Really? I can install Exchange 2003 on Windows server and not reboot after the install.

It's because the patch patches more than just CAD, and is a separate download from each of the CAD products: CAD, CSD, CDA.

I imagine it's easier to deploy one patch for all of the software than to create three patches (possibly more in the future).

I will give you one thing in your complaint:  they could have included auto update as the final procedure in the install package.  But then again, with Windows and it's "you wrote to my registry, therefore I must reboot" attitude, that may not be easily achieved.

I;m hoping someone can explain this one for me.

Why is it on a Brand new install of UCCx 7.0.1sr5 that you can download the MSI for the CAD client and then one you open it it wants to load a "newer Version" after you just downloaded it from the server?

don't get me wrong. I love the fact if you update your UCCx server it will do the load newer version, but on a fresh install why?

TIA
