[cisco-voip] looks like we're back to rebooting the cluster

Fri Apr 26 16:20:27 EDT 2019

I knew I used it somewhere recently, the command is still available in CCX
10.6.

Try looking at 'file view install upgradeVMwareTools.log' to see if the
last vmtools upgrade/migration corresponds to your latest upgrade.  You'll
see the vmtools version there as well.
