CUCM, IMP and CUC upgrade from version 9.1.1 (on VMWare) to version 10.5 (on VMWare)

Hello,
I have to perform a Refresh Upgrade to 10.5 for a client who has the following UC apps on a virtual environment:
CUCM version 9.1.1
IM and Presence version 9.1.1
CUC (Unity Connection) version 9.1.1
A. I see on the CUC Upgrade document below:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/10x/upgrade/guide/10xcucrugx.pdf
P.39 --> Change Guest Operating System after CUC Upgrade to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (64-bit). But nothing about the Network Adapter.
B. I see on the CUCM 10.0 Upgrade Guide:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/upgrade/10_0_1/CUCM_BK_U4214F9D_00_upgrade-guide-cucm-100.pdf
Page. 44:
Step 3: Change the configuration of the VM as needed (Guest OS, ...) Step 4: Modify the Network Adapter to use VMXNET 3 Adapter type as steps before the CUCM upgrade.
My questions would be:
1. Do I need to change the Network Adapter for CUC as well? If yes, should this be done before upgrade or after?
2. What would be the implication of not changing the Network Adapter from "Flexible" to VMXNET3?

Hi csrlime,
Not sure about future issues by remaining on the flexible adapter but best practice suggests going with what the OVA requires. I performed a refresh upgrade from 8.5 to 10.5 in a virtualized environment. For CUCM and CUC I changed the Network Adapter before beginning the upgrade. The steps I took to make the network adapter change were:
1. Download a copy of the vmx file from the server(s) you are upgrading to your local machine.
2. Create a back up of that file incase you need to restore it in the future. From cmd prompt in the same folder as the download .vmx. copy "<virtual_machine_name>.vmx"
then run the following from you cmd prompt
copy "virtual_machine_namet.vmx" temp_file.vmx
findstr /V /R "^ethernet0.virutalDev.*" temp_file.vmx > "virtual_machine_name.vmx"
echo ethernet0.virtualDev = "vmxnet3" >> "virtual_machine_name.vmx"
Upload the edited vmx file to your the datastore which will replace the current. Then remove the vm from inventory and then add it back. Check your setting and the network adapter should be changed to vmxnet3 now.
Steps are from the Read Me file as an option to change it. I don't why you can't make this change during a maint window.

Unity Connection Upgrade from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version

Hi,
Am planning to Upgrade my CUC(Unity Connection) from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version, having my Call manager in the same version 8.6.2. I will upgrade my Call Manager from 8.6.2 to 9.X later.
Hope i can upgrade my CUC first.
I need some info like,
1) Am not getting the image to download which can upgrade from 8.6.2 to 9.1 latest version directly. Should i have to move to 9.0 first and then to 9.1 ??
2) Is their any pre cautions need to be taken care/ well known issues during the upgrade.
3) Also, hope licensing get migrated automatically (no need to have extra efforts)
4) Advantages of Moving to 9.x wrt to features compared to 8.6.
Pls suggest.
Thanks

It´s possible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version?

Hi all. I´m thinking in becoming a developper because I want to install mavericks beta on my macbook pro (I can´t wait for the battery and ram upgrades). But i have a question before that. It´s posible to upgrade from the latest mavericks beta to the final version? , or Ihave to restore to mavericks final version and then use a time machine Backup?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for english

No one who knows can say, because Mavericks is not released yet.
To get a Free copy that can be updated, you need to have a paid developer membership, at a minimum cost of at least US$100/ annually. (This may also include one Developer Tech Support incident and other benefits.)
Apple has lowered the cost of new versions of Mac OS X to about US$20. If Mavericks is released at about that price, buying a legitimate copy instead of depending on a quirky developer version that cannot be updated should not be a difficult decision.

how do I upgrade from Mac OS 10.5.8 to later versions so new software like turbo tax will work?

Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
         7. Xserve (Early 2009)
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
     For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.

Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a latest version

Hello,
Upgrading from cisco LMS 3.0 to a higher version.
Whatdoes it require?.
What is the current version?
What do we need for upgrading?
Are there specific codes or new need to buy new products?
In case of buying new products, which are the configurations?

H Malik,
You are correct! Latest version is Cisco prime LMS 4.2. There is no direct upgrade from LMS 3.x to LMS 4.x.
The procedure is simple:
Take backup orf old LMS --> Un-install (if same machine)--> Install new LMS --> Restore backup to get old data.
You would need to purchase new license for it.Cisco Prime LMS is now part of the Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle and is not orderable separately. Cisco Prime Infrastructure bundle follows a size-based incremental licensing model. Device licenses can be combined and added when applied to a single server installation instance. Customers have the option of adding incremental licenses for additional devices as their network grows.Refer to the Cisco Prime Infrastructure Ordering Guide located at http://www.cisco.com/go/primeinfrastructure for the exact part number that matches your requirement and placing the order.
Currently even SmartNet or SAS contracts does not cover major upgrades from LMS 2.x and 3.x; an upgrade part number will need to be purchased to move to Cisco Prime LMS 4.2. These upgrade part numbers reflect a significant discount to protect customers' investment in the Cisco Prime product line.
The data migration process will vary depending on the LMS version from which the data need to be migrated. Migrating data to LMS 4.2:
• LMS 4.2 supports local upgrade or direct inline upgrade only from LMS 4.0.1 and LMS 4.1.
• LMS 4.0 customers are encouraged to install LMS 4.0.1 before doing inline upgrade to LMS 4.2.
• LMS 3.2 and LMS 3.2 Service Pack 1 customers can do a remote upgrade through the LMS backup and restore mechanism.
• LMS 3.1, LMS 3.0, LMS 3.0 December 2007 Update, LMS 2.6, and LMS 2.6 Service Pack 1 customers need to do a remote upgrade to LMS 4.0.1 and then upgrade to LMS 4.2.

I am new to mac's and have upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion but......

I am new to mac's and have upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion but not all my application will work. Is it save to reinstall using original snow leopard dvd and does it wipe all my other application like apature? I am in a panic over this, any help!!
I came across this online and i want to know is it safe to do this:
Backup your User folders to an external drive. This should preserve your documents, photos, music, etc. If you store those things in locations not in the User folder, make sure to copy those over too.
Insert the Snow Leopard disc. Restart your Mac and hold down C to boot to your DVD drive.
Go to Utilities in the menu bar once the installer pops up and select “Disk Utility.”
Find the drive in the sidebar where Lion is installed, select it and navigate to the Partition tab.
Click on the drop down menu under Partition Layout and select “1 Partition.” Hit Apply.
Now navigate to the Erase tab and make sure “Mac OS Extended (Journaled)” is selected, then hit Erase to delete all data on the drive.
Quit Disk Utility to get back to the Snow Leopard installer and proceed with the install.
Restore your User folder and documents from your backup.
Run Software Update to get everything current, install your apps from your original install media and update those as well.
if any one can help me that would be great, thanks Mike

Before you do that why not do this first:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
To boot from the Recovery HD restart the computer. After the chime hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
If this doesn't help, then you can proceed to reinstall Snow Leopard as follows:
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard. I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
This will erase the drive so be sure to backup your files before doing this.

R/3 upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 and BW upgrade from 3.5 to 7.0

Is there a reason to upgrade Solution Manager from 3.2 to 4.0 when upgrading R/3 from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 and BW upgrade from 3.5 to 7.0?
And when in current situation Unicode UTF8 is used, could that give problems during / after the upgrade?

Hello ALex,
There is not a must to upgrade also your solman 3.2 when you upgrade your satellites, only consider if you need the solman diagnostic or not and also that the new functionality in solman 4.0.
Which system is unicode, the satellite?
There is also not problems having a non-unicode solman with unicode satellites and the other, having a unicode-solman "linked" to unicode-satellites.
Hope this helps,
Dolores

I've tried upgrading from FCP 10.0.1 to the newest version and I cannot do it. It does not pop up on the App Store. Is this an upgrade or do I have to buy it again?

I've been trying to export my videos after installing the Mavericks upgrade and FCP does not let me. On one of the forums I was told to upgrade to FCP 10.6.
Is this a free upgrade or do I have to buy the newest version again?

The current version is 10.0.9. The update to 10.0.9 from 10.0.1 is free. Log in to the App Store *with the same Apple ID used to buy the application* and click on "Updates".

CUE Upgrade from 8.6.1 to 8.6.7 version

Hi,
I am currenty running CUE (NME-CUE) version 8.6.1 on router 2851, I want to upgrade to version 8.6.7 (provide support CUCM 9.1).
can somebody tell me In what case is used command "software install clean" and in what case is used command "software install upgrade"?
Apprecaite your help.
Best regards,
Tan

Hi Tan,
can somebody tell me In what case is used command "software install clean" and in what case is used command "software install upgrade"?
A "software install clean" is used when you would need to do a fresh install, while the
"software install upgrade" would be used for upgrading from 8.6.1 to 8.6.7
As per document and command reference:
Several processes are available for upgrading Cisco Unity Express software. Choosing a process depends on the type of upgrade required.
•Upgrade installation—Upgrade using the online installer with the software install upgrade command. This process is available for upgrading from the previous software release to the current one, such as upgrading from 2.1.3 to 2.2.
Using this process, the system remains operational while the new software files are downloaded in the background. Only an FTP server is required. See "Upgrading the Previous Software Image" for more details.
•Clean installation—Upgrade using the online installer with the software install clean command. This installation process is available for upgrading licenses and for upgrading software releases later than 2.0 to the current one.
Using this process, the system remains operational while the new software files are downloaded in the background. For a new license, you must back up and restore configuration files; for a new software image, you must back up and restore both configuration and data files. Only an FTP server is required. See "Upgrading to a New License" or "Installing a New Software Image" for more details.
•Clean installation with the boot helper—Upgrade using the boot helper with the software install clean command. This clean installation process is available for upgrading licenses, upgrading software releases prior to 2.0.1 to the current release, and when the other upgrade processes are unsuccessful.
Using this process, the system must be offline while the new software files are downloaded. This installation erases and repartitions the disk before loading the new files on the disk. You must back up and restore your configuration and data files. Both an FTP and a TFTP server are required. See "Installing a Software Image Using Boot Helper".
Kindly rate the post accordingly.
Regards,
Kevin

Upgraded from Adobe PhotoShop 2.0 to 3.0 version

I recently upgraded to the 3.0 version of Adobe PhotoShop. I used to download my digital photos directly from the camera and they would appear as thumbnail photos. With the newer version, I can't seem to find where the photos are. I had to use a card reader to see my photos and then move them to my file of digital photos. Does anyone have any idea why I can't download my photos now that I've upgraded? I have a Dell computer with Windows XP Home version. Thank you. Sandy

Hi Sandy, Which digital camera are you using? I have seen a similar posting on the forum related to a old kodak camera model. Please confirm 1. Does Adobe Photo Downloader comes up automatically when connect your camera to PC? 2. Launch Album SE 3.0 and go to Get Photos -> From camera or card reader, Are you able to see you camera in the device listing over there? 3. Are you able to download photos from your digital camera using any other software such as Windows scanner and camera wizard, or any other application? Please share your experience. <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected].. >I recently upgraded to the 3.0 version of Adobe PhotoShop.

Upgraded from SL to ML apps still on SL version

After upgrading from SL 10.6.8 to ML 10.8.4, many of the apps and utilities are inaccessible. Disk utility, activity monitor, messages, calendar, address book, dictionary, mail, QuickTime, and so on have a grey circle with a back slash over them. Some apps do work about 12 are in the condition described. When I click on an app with a grey circle and slash a message pops up stating that this version of the app can't be used with this version of OSX. Have a time machine backup so rollback to SL is possible. Thanks for the help.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You don't need to go back to Snow Leopard but you have to reinstall Mountain Lion. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting and follow the steps to reinstall Mountain Lion.
Lion and Mountain Lion include OS X Recovery to reinstall Mac OS X and do other operations. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 You won't lose anything after reinstalling Mountain Lion

Erase and Install upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.5.6- Novice User!!

I am planning on upgrading from Tiger to Leopard soon and had some concerns. I plan to use Carbon Copy Cloner to backup all data to an external drive. My concerns at this time are:
1. Will my old saved email messages in Apple Mail carry over to Leopard?
2. What about my Office for Mac which I just installed on my MBP, will I have to install it again?
3. How would I keep my Safari bookmarks?
I know these might be really simple things for most users out there, but I am not a very technical person despite having used a mac for a couple of years!
Any replies (or suggestions for upgrading) would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi Niel:
You seem to be very knowledgeable on Mac: I´ve been using it fro quite a few years but upgrading to Leopard has been a nightmare: first install and archive did not work because it had problems creating a "unknown user",etc. I decided to Erase and Install and now _I´m getting a message that the Install disk is damaged_ (which is not really , because in the first installation it gave me the same message, and worked OK after repeating the operation). Would appreciate if you know something about this problem, and any other friend on the forum giving me some advise.
Thanks

Upgrade from InDesign CS 5.5 to the Latest Version

Hello all,
I purchased InDesign CS 5.5, the Middle Eastern version, and was thinking of upgrading to the latest one. Do I have to subscribe to the cloud service to be able to do that? I ask because I don't need any other Adobe product, not a single one.
And I heard now that there are not any Middles Eastern/non Middle Eastern versions now, they are all one and that all the functionality of the previously separate Middle Eastern versions can be found on the new InDesign versions?
Thank you.

You can subscribe to just InDesign CC, or the whole Cloud. There are separate ME versions, still, but if you are a Cloud subscriber then the version you download is dependent upon the language you select in the Creative Cloud app manager preferences. You get access to both versions as a subscriber.
I suspect you could buy a desktop retail license of InDesign CS6 ME if you wanted to do so.
