Typically 8.5.1 will go to the new version of 9.0 when it comes out. But Like Lelio said if you continue down the path..... 8.5.2, 8.5.4, 8.5.8 and then 9.0 comes out you might have to wait for a 9.0.5 before you would be able to upgrade.<div>

Lelio but i have seen that matrix many times. I use it often for
my upgrade paths.<br>
There is no info for <u><b>Upcoming</b></u> versions of CUCM
(8.6, 9.0, 9.1 etc).<br>
I just don't want to upgrade to 8.5(1) and then get stuck there
until 9.5 or something else valid is released<br>

Thanks Lelio,<br>
i understood what you said about licensing and contracts.<br>
But, i would like to know apriori if possible that, if i have
upgraded to 7.1.5 i would have to wait for the 8.5 because you
cannot upgrade from 7.1.5 to 8.0.<br>
Is this info for the next versions of 8.5 somewhere?<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot<br>

Technically speaking, you'll have to look at the CUCM
compatibility matrix to see what versions can upgrade to
what versions. Cisco hasn't been too bad at making upgrades
work especially from an n-1 release, however, there are
occasions depending on how far into the N-1 train you
venture you will not be able to upgrade to the next release.
For example, you can't upgrade from 7.1.5 to 8.0 I believe,
but you can upgrade from 7.1.5 to 8.5 (please check the
matrix for exacts).<br>

<br>
Licensing is another matter and handles the legality of
upgrades. An "Essential" contract allows you access to minor
upgrades, i.e. N.x to N.y. A UCSS contract allows you access
to major upgrades, i.e. N.x to N+1.y. In actuality, you can
upgrade to the latest version, not just N+1. ;)<br>
<br>
Hope that helps, I'm sure others will offer up some comments
as well.<br>
