<br>
If you are planning to move to CM 5 you don't want to move to 4.2 as<br>
there is no path to 5.x from there. Move to 4.1.3 if you plan to<br>
upgrade to 5.<br>
<br>
Unity you just need the windows update and you also need to upgrade the <br>
Java... at least on 4.0.5. I don't know for 4.1 for sure.<br>
<br>
Phone load: my guess it's for someone who has not upgraded to the
8.2<br>
firmware but needs the patch.<br>

I for one like the extra day light after I go home...... but I'm really <br>
going to be cranked if they move it back next year as this is only a<br>
test year.<br>

Subject: [cisco-voip] Upgrade / DST Advice<br>
<br>
I hate to beat a dead horse, so please accept my apology in
advance. In<br>
going over the DST issues and trying to plan our strategy, a couple of <br>
questions popped up. First let me give the version of what we are<br>
running:<br>
<br>
Call Manager<br>
4.1(2)es40<br>
OS - 2000.4.2sr12<br>
<br>
Unity<br>
4.1(1)<br>
Windows 2000 SP4<br>
TSP Version : 8.0(2)<br>
CSA Agent Version: 4.0.3.728<br>
SQL Version: SQL 2000 - 8.00.760 (SP4 I think)<br>
<br>
Phones<br>
Mostly 7970G with a few 7960s.<br>
--------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
In planning our DST upgrades, I see I need to upgrade the OS on the CM <br>
boxes to either 200.4.2sr15, 2000.4.3aSR8 or 2000.4.4asr3a. My
question<br>
is, why would I upgrade to the newest release (4.4) instead of 4.2 or<br>
4.3 ?<br>
<br>
For Call Manager itself, the upgrade doc states I need to upgrade to <br>
either 4.1(3) or 4.2(3). Again, why *wouldn't* I not upgrade to 4.2
?<br>
<br>
For Unity, I think I need to upgrade to 4.2 and then do the normal<br>
Microsoft upgrades and patches for a Win2k server. This seems too
easy, <br>
but you never know.<br>
<br>
For the phones, I understand the 7960 units get their time from the CM<br>
server, so that's ok. For the 7970s, I have a few users running the<br>
8.2.1 firmware over the last month and it seems fine. Today I see
Cisco <br>
released 8.0.4sr3a. Once again, why would someone upgrade to 8.0.4
when<br>
8.2.1 has been released for a while (when the CM is 4.x) ?<br>
<br>
Curse Congress for making this change. Most non-IT folks don't even<br>
know about the change, let alone the hassles the IT community is going<br>
through. ARGH....<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help.<br>
