Installing and Upgrading Cisco Unity Express Software


This chapter describes the procedures to upgrade the license size or software release for existing Cisco Unity Express systems and contains the following sections:

Software Upgrade Overview

Upgrading to a New License

Installing a New Software Image

Upgrading the Previous Software Image

Installing a Software Image Using Boot Helper

Software Upgrade Overview

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".

For a complete list of releases and the upgrade processes available for them, see the software upgrade process matrix in the Release Notes for Cisco Unity Express Release 2.2.

Upgrading to a New License

Use this procedure to increase the number of supported mailboxes.


Note If your system is already configured, you cannot change the license type from Cisco CallManager to Cisco CallManager Express. To make that change, you must reinstall and reconfigure the system. The data cannot be restored.
However, you can change the license type prior to running the Initialization Wizard.



Note If you are changing to a smaller mailbox license, verify that the system meets the new license limit before downloading the new license. For example, if you are downgrading from a 50 mailbox license to a 12 mailbox license, ensure that your system does not have more than 12 configured mailboxes. If you have more than 12 mailboxes, delete the extra mailboxes before downgrading the license.


This procedure uses a clean installation, which uses the software installer in the application. The clean installation permits the system to remain operational while the new software files are downloaded in the background. You must back up and restore your configuration files. Only an FTP server is required.

Sequence of Tasks

Upgrading to a new license requires the following sequence of activities:

1. Order the license SKU from the Configurator. Choose a package from the following list:

12-mailbox package: SCUE-LIC-12CCM=

25-mailbox package: SCUE-LIC-25CCM=

50-mailbox package: SCUE-LIC-50CCM=

100-mailbox package: SCUE-LIC-100CCM=

2. Download the license files from Cisco.com. See "Downloading the License Files".

3. Save the current configuration.

4. Install the new license file. See "Installing a New Software License File".

5. Run the Initialization Wizard.

6. Reboot the system.

Downloading the License Files

After ordering the appropriate license SKU, download the corresponding license file and installer file.
