Ah, I wasn't using the same IP address, was being lazy and didn't segregate it on a different network than my production CUCM. Given that I'm only going from 7.1.3 to 8.0.2c, it shouldn't be a big deal, not the job you are dealing with.<div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have been struggeling with this upgrade for some some now. I hope
someone can cast som light on the matter</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We are running an MCS-7835 with 6.1.3.3190 on. This server does not
support 8.0. We also have a new IBM Server that now has a clean install of
8.0.0 on it. The server supports 8.0, and is ordered to Cisco spec. But it will
not support 6.1.3 nor 7. So I have a gap between 6.1.3 and 8.0 here.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This I hoped to resolv by installing a clean 6.1.3.3190 server in
vmware, restoring the DRS backup from our production server, and then upgrade
this to 8 and do a DRS backup again. Restore to the new server and voila :D.
Sounds like a good plan ? </span></p>

I tought so too, but its not as easy as it seems…..</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Made my 6.1.3.3190 clean install in vmware, that went fine aswell.</span></p>
