<div dir="ltr">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 style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 12pt"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 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><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Just doing a little research on the upgrade options for our system.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">What about the IPCC versions. The matrix does not seem to show the same to and from data.</span></font></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Does anyone have a link to any document that shows the supported and tested upgrades from one IPCX version to another?</span></font></p>
