[cisco-voip] 8.6 Upgrades L2 Upgrade vs Refresh Upgrade

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I haven't read through the release notes as to why the 128GB device is necessary, but is there any reason why this couldn't be done using the standard DRF utilities? I'm sure every entity is different, but now if I start having to purchase additional hardware for these upgrades after the whole "we can upgrade to a non-active partition" speech, it's gonna be difficult.

Both are considered refresh upgrades because of the RHEL version change underneath. CUCM upgrade requires a USB drive and wipes the drives as well but only for 7825H3 and 7828H3.

Per the Release Notes; 



For CallManger 8.6 is L2 Upgrade, upgrades using Inactive partition. 

For Unity Connection 8.6 is a Refresh Upgrade (wipes drive, 128GB USB required) 



How come they aren’t both a Refresh Upgrades? Why the difference under the hood?
