Unified Communication processor (UCM) Upgrade
The UCM was released with 8.0 and different options exist to facilitate the upgrade of
the UCM:
•
ISO image – Full upgrade of OS and all applications/components and will
need to backup and restore user data
•
Collection of RPM’s in a zip file - Upgrade of all applications/components
and preserves user data
o
Separate .rpm files are available for voicemail language prompts and
voicemail TTS languages that are not included in the zip file
•
Individual RPM’s – Upgrade of individual applications/components
Using the individual RPM’s is the recommended method for upgrading specific
applications between releases rather than a full ISO reinstallation as it is both
quicker and does not remove the current user data.
For upgrade from 8.0 to 8.1 use the ISO image or zip file in order to upgrade all the
necessary applications and components. The ISO images, RPM’s and ZIP files
(8.1.80.9) and USB Initiator (2.0.3) are available via the Avaya support website
http://support.avaya.com.
Please refer to the Unified Communications Module Installation and Maintenance
manual for step by step instructions on both options
