Thanks for the response. If I hapen to install the wrong version of DMA can I uninstall it and install the correct one? Has anyone had to do this? <br><br>

<p>If it is risk vs. reward I think I will make my own decision about that. I am asking if I run the DMA process does it cause any changes to the call manager? I need to dump out this information and load it to a vmware server to see if the upgrade is going to go well. </p>

<p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt">THanks alot for the help. Does anyone know or has anyone tried to use the DMA tool and restore the information to a VMware server just to test the upgrade? I will not have access to the hardware before I go onsite for these customers but can get the DMA file transferred to myself. Also can I run this in the middle of the day? Will it stop the publisher from functioning? </p>

<p>Best piece of advice I can offier is to allow plenty of time to run the DMA tool and resolve any error or warnings before your planned cutover time. I've had upgrades with no warnings and errors, then I've had upgrades that had two days worth of TAC cases to get it all resolved before we got a good DMA tar file. <br>
<br>On the Unity upgrades make sure that your Unity server is talking to the nearest DC/GC (see the reconfiguration guide for details - <a href="http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity/5x/upgrade/guide/ex/5xcuruge060.html" target="_blank">http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/unity/5x/upgrade/guide/ex/5xcuruge060.html</a>). I had one upgrade where it had attached to a server across the WAN so the AD synch part that should have been a twenty or thirty minute deal ended up taking five hours... not something you want to hit cancel on in the middle, but it did mean we blew through our maintenance window.<br>

<p>We're going to use a new MCS server this new server have 2GB RAM and 72GB HDD. However the current server only have 18GB and unfortunately the unit C only have 2.5GB of free space. Still I don't try to run DMA but I don't know if the 4GB is strictly necessary.</p>

<p>Hi list,</p></div>
<div>
<p> </p></div>
<div>
<p>I have to migrate a CCM from 4.1 to 6.1 unfortunately the disk C: space is not enough, in accordance to DMA requeriments 4GB is necessary, so after of delete CDR and others files, I have 2.5GB of free space in unit C: in D only 200Mbps. Then my question is: is it strictly necessary 4GB in unit C in order to run DMA? or 2.5GB will be enough, because I'm thinking export the .tar file in other unit (maybe network unit) What other things can I delete into CCM in order to get more space?</p>
</div>

<p>Thanks for your suggestions.</p></div>
