Upgrading licesnses

[Siva chinap]

We have two MCS-7825-H2 servers we are planning to upgrade  CUCM  from the version 6 to 9 and 7 to 9,since Version 10 supports on virtualization,we cannot go for major hardware changes,technically i gone through some doccuments

My queries are When i upgrading to Latest version do i need to buy a new licenses or i can migrate existing licenses,if it is migrating old licenses what are the procedure i need to follow?

Do i need to order  services or any support,suggest me on this,only concern is i am planning to upgrade the ram to support compatibility of the version is there any major issue i will face during upgrade.

Hi,

7825H2 does not support CUCM 9 .

you can check H/W compatibility matrix

You also need to have UCSS /ESWcontract if u are doing major upgrades.

If u do not have that, u need to order Migration licenses.

S Aman i also gone through early its supporting,i just need to upgrade the ram to 4gb, we dont have  UCSS /ESWcontract,so in this case we cannot migrate licenses from old cucm?

u need to upgrade the DRAM.

If u do not have contract, then, u need to order migration licenses as per users.
