Probably not a recommended or common activity, but it's where we're at. I've accepted the fact I might have to start over again.<br><br>I've (1) rebuilt a v7 CallManager cluster in the lab, (2) restored from backup, (3) applied new re-hosted licenses, (4) applied the Refresh COP file and (5) upgraded successfully to v9. That process has been tested a few times.<br><br>In order to test the rebuild/restore process for IPCCx v7, we stopped at step (3). Unfortunately, we found we had to make a few changes, so to speed things along, I restored a more recent backup to the lab cluster. <br><br>I'm just wondering, what the chances are of me being able to upgrade the v7 CallManager cluster to v9 after I completed another restore between steps (3) and (4). Should I apply the rehosted license file again? It's there, listed in the license files.<br><br>Also, I noticed that after I upload the rehosted license files, the old ones are still there.
