I’m going direct 6.1(1a) to 6.1(2) with an .iso file via sftp. The best I
can tell with the RTMT is that only 16% of the CUCM database space is consumed.
I couldn’t readily find a way to determine the exact size from the cli.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

included with Attendant Console upgrades and extensive user and application
testing it took 9 hours the day of, plus another 8 hour maintenance window the
week before to resolve all DMA/Upgrade assistant issues and reboot with latest
BARS and get a good backup, plus we staffed up for post cutover support on
Monday after cutover for issues like IE shortcuts no longer working for new
ccmuser, etc.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

issues surfaced and everyone would be half asleep and not paying attention to
details. I’ve moved to starting at 8am Saturday so everyone is
thinking and on their toes still by 3pm, no one is ready to leave because they
are too tired….I once had a customer tell me at 9pm she was tired and
locking us out, she was going home regardless if the phone system worked or not
for the campus! Seems she had something called tenure and couldn’t be
fired regardless what she did. Almost sounds better than a union.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
