Important Notes & Recommendations

Cisco provides the following guidance to help you successfully install and/or upgrade Cisco Unified Communications Manager software:

 Cisco highly recommends that you upgrade all servers in the cluster sequentially, beginning with the publisher, followed by the

TFTP server, if applicable, to the same version of Cisco Unified

Communications Manager software; otherwise call-processing interruptions may occur.

 The Software Installer is located on the Cisco Unified OS

Administration web page.

To minimize call-processing interruptions during the upgrade process, make sure that all servers are running the same version of Cisco Unified

Communications Manager software before beginning this upgrade

 Make sure that the servers are online before you begin this

Device Package installation.

Installation Instructions

Note: Cisco recommends that you apply this Device Package during a maintenance window.

Note: Device Packages are installed on the active partition and cannot be uninstalled, a DRS backup before the install is highly recommended. Details of how to take a proper backup can be found in the Disaster Recovery Guide for each version of CUCM..

Procedure

Note: Apply this patch to all of your Cisco Unified Communications Manager servers, beginning with the publisher server and TFTP server.

When applying this Device Package to enable new device support, a cluster-wide reboot is required for those devices to register successfully. A clusterwide reboot IS NOT required when running to update existing firmware/support.

For Cisco Unified Communications Manager 8.5, you must do all software installations and upgrades by using the Software Upgrades menu options.

The system can upload and process only software that Cisco Systems approved. You cannot install or use third-party or Windows-based software applications that you may have been using with a previous version of Cisco

Unified Communications Manager with Cisco Unified Communications

Manager 8.5.

1.

Using your web browser, login to the Cisco Unified Communications

Operating System Administration web page

2.

Under the Software Upgrades menu, select Install/Upgrade.

3.

Fill in the appropriate values in the Software Location section for the file you downloaded above, and click Next.

4.

In the Available Software drop-down box, select the file you

5.

downloaded above, and click Next.

After validating the MD5 has the correct value, click Next.

6.

In the Warning box, verify you have selected the correct firmware, then click Install.

7.

Check that you received a Success message.

Note: In order to change the loads manually, you do NOT need to reinstall this Device Package. The new files will be present in the TFTP folder.

Go to CCMAdmin->Device->Device Settings->Device Defaults and manually change the name of the load file (for specific device(s)) to the new load and click UPDATE.

Note: If you are rebooting the cluster, the next step does not need to be done.

 The Cisco TFTP service now must be stopped and restarted on the TFTP server, then reset the affected devices for them to upgrade to the new load.

Uninstallation Instructions

The Device Package cannot be uninstalled. However, you can change the device defaults for devices you wish to roll back. From the Cisco Unified

Communications Manager Administration page go to System/Device/Device

Settings/Device Defaults and set the devices that were changed previously back to their previous firmware setting. Select update, and then reset those devices.

Submitting a Service Request

Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3 and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request

Tool is located at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/servicerequest

For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the

Cisco TAC by telephone. (S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.) Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business operations running smoothly.

To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:

Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)

EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55

USA: 1 800 553-2447

For a complete list of Cisco TAC contacts, go to this URL: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport/contacts

Definitions of Service Request Severity

To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.

Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.

Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.

Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.

Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
