Yeah, the watermark thing always works, just takes a bit of time.

the 13 node cluster upgrade from 9x to 10x that I performed would disagree. But ok.

Hi Tim, this is a Major Upgrade, the ISO image is about 5GB, and so, changing only the watermark of the logging partition is not enough for a vDisk of 80GB.

what size image are you using? Depending on which, the reallocation cop file might not gain you much usable space.
instead of the free_common_space cop file, I crank the low and high water mark for the logging partition and give it a while to clean up. it's one less cop file to install and solves the problem. we've done it on everything from a small, 2.5k image to a 10k image. works everytime.

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.
