Solved: Is there any documentation that explains CUCM version nomenclature?

That is what is

the difference between CUCM 6.1.3(b) and CUCM 6.1.3.3000

-1 ?

Hmm.. not that I've seen.

Basically there is the long form and the short form.

7.1(3) = 7.1.3.10000-11

Usually the 7.1(3) maps to the first three . separated digits, and then the initial version would have a number like 10000 followed by a build number or something... 3a would have 20000, 3b 30000.

7.1(3a) = 7.1.3.20000-2

7.1(3b) = 7.1.3.30000-1

Of course, anything after the 7.1.3 bit in these numbers is liable to pretty random (in initial 'a/b' releases and especially on anything in between such as service updates), so you can look up the version numbers in a couple of places:

- When downloading

- In the upgrade matrix : http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/compat/ccmcompmatr.html#wp43011

They're the same, just naming conventions so you don't need to remember the whole version.

You can go to the download page and you can see this for any version.

Click on 6.1(3b) and you'll get:

UCSInstall_UCOS_6.1.3.3000-1.sgn.iso_part1of2

Ya, it's a "tradition" in software industry. 6.1.3b is a "marketing name". 6.1.3.3000-1 is the "development version".

For example, Microsoft Exchange version table: http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=41

Thanks for the responses... Another dumb question what does the 'SU' stand for in the image name?
