Just my .02<br><br>Keep in mind that two years ago this was all windows based. What was your backout plan if your update failed and corrupted the database. Most of the time it was a full rebuild of the server somewhere around 4-6 hours. Then the subscribers.....<br>
<br>What they have given us is far better than anything we had in the windows world. <br><br>With that being said they are starting to do some transferring of settings in CUCM 7. User facing features do get transferred. I think it is only a matter of time before when you go to switch versions it does a second snapshot so you don't lose any data.<br>

<p>Really?? I think this shoots to hell then my plan to
download 6.1.2 to the inactive partition and swap partitions at a later date. I
thought when it swapped over it would use the data base from the active
partition. So it coverts the data base when you load the upgrade on the
inactive partition and this upgraded database on the inactive partition is
used?</p>

When you upgrade, you get a snapshot of the database. You'll have to <br>
consider a change freeze or log/ duplicate all changes after your <br>
reboot. I'm not sure about 6.1 but 7 does have user facing <br>
features( like forwarding ) that are preserved.<br>
