Why don't you take a step back and find out WHY you are using UCCX for this? I would bet you can accomplish your IVR functions using Unity and get rid of UCCX. One less system to maintain.<br><br>

<p>We have the "High availability" feature so what we did was take down the secondary node, and rebuilt on that hardware. This worked well for us.<br><br>You also need to be careful of your call manager versions, we had to upgrade that at the same time which increased our downtime quite a bit. I can't remember if there is a version of UCCX that works with both CUCM 4 and 5/6/7. </p>

<p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt">There is no upgrade path for UCCX. The only things you can migrate are your scripts (if they convert correctly) and your prompts. The "upgrade" process is a complete system rebuild. The OS changes from 2000 to 2003, so you have to format the box and start over or, as you suggested, use new hardware. Once that is done you have to reconfigure agents "IPCC Extension" (formerly known as ICD extension). You also have to reconfigure all agents, skills, skill assignments, resource groups and CSQs in UCCX, along with your port groups, triggers and applications. As you can see screenshots are going to be your best friend. This is hardly a process that can be called an "upgrade".<br>

<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Just doing a little research on the upgrade options for our system.</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I have the compatibility matrix for both call manager and ipcc express.</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">The call manager matrix shows the support to and from upgrade paths using the DMA tool or direct upgrade.</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I know that it is mostly a new install because of moving form windows/sql to linux/Informix. The DMA tool just helps bring over your data so its not a 100% scratch rebuild.</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">What about the IPCC versions. The matrix does not seem to show the same to and from data.</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">It looks</span> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">like the IPCC express systems continue to use Windows for</span> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">their OS. Is this correct?</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Does anyone have a link to any document that shows the supported and tested upgrades from one IPCX version to another?</span></p>
<p><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">For the group members that have done a full system upgrade, did you upgrade a live system or purchase new hardware to put the upgrade on. I would assume that using new hardware is the best way to have the least impact on a working system. I imagine that a full upgrade of all systems is going to take a few days, and not a few hours in the maintenance</span> <span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">window.
