[cisco-voip] Common Partition Space Issue - Upgrade CUCM from 9.6 to 11.x

[Matthew Loraditch]

They both work, free common space you can do without taking the server offline, albeit a 9 to 11 upgrade is a refresh so it's probably not much of a difference in your scenario as you'd be in a maintenance window anyway. It just really depends if you have a preference. With free common space you won't have a rollback partition temporarily, with resize you don't lose that.

Hi Guys,
   I'm planning to upgrade our CUCM cluster from version 9.6 to version 11.00, and I've some questions for you.

Version 9.x has the bug of the limited Common Partition Space, so Upgrade fails.

I've read Upgrade document downloaded from Cisco Site, and I've noticed that Cisco recommend to use two different Cop files to solve the Common Partition Space requirements issue.

First: ciscocm.free_common_space_v1.3.k3.cop.sgn, to delete the ISO inactive image on the Common partition

Second: ciscocm.vmware-disk-size-reallocation-1.0.cop.sgn, to expand and relocate the Common Partition Space on the Virtual Disk.

The question is, anyone as already done one or all the procedure listed above?

Some recommendations?

Thank you very much and have a nice day.
