CUCM 7.1.3 and CUCN 7.0.2 best practices for graceful shutdown for physical move

What steps should I take to gracefully shutdown and bring back up a call manager cluster?  I need to move the publisher and subscriber to a new physical location.

Hi

Assuming you are simply moving the server (i.e. not changing the IP addresses) you can simply shut each down from the CLI (utils system shutdown) or OS Administration web interface (under system/version or something similarly obscure).

They should all boot fine and recover in any order, but you might boot the publisher first, veryify network connectivity etc before bringing up the other servers.

If you want to maintain service during the move and don't have SRST you might consider moving one CUCM at a time.
