Lelio, Once you install the latest refresh.cop file you do not have to rehost your licenses to upgrade to 9. You can do the following: (per the jump upgrade guide):
Install fresh 7.X server on Vmware (Using the same IP addresses and hostnames) Install upgrade.cop Restore your DRS Backup Upgrade to 9.x DRS Backup Create fresh 9.x server – To align your partitions Restore DRS backup Thanks Tommy Tommy Schlotterer | Systems Engineer CCNA, CCNA Voice [cid:image001.png@01CF428E.A49E9800] 48325 Alpha Dr. Ste. 150 Wixom, MI 48393 p 248.468.0710 e tschlotte...@netechcorp.com<mailto:tschlotte...@netechcorp.com> w netechcorp.com<http://netechcorp.com/> From: cisco-voip [mailto:cisco-voip-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Lelio Fulgenzi Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2014 9:36 AM To: cisco-voip voyp list Subject: [cisco-voip] applying a second restore to a newly built cluster - license files? OK, so here's where I'm at. Probably not a recommended or common activity, but it's where we're at. I've accepted the fact I might have to start over again. I've (1) rebuilt a v7 CallManager cluster in the lab, (2) restored from backup, (3) applied new re-hosted licenses, (4) applied the Refresh COP file and (5) upgraded successfully to v9. That process has been tested a few times. In order to test the rebuild/restore process for IPCCx v7, we stopped at step (3). Unfortunately, we found we had to make a few changes, so to speed things along, I restored a more recent backup to the lab cluster. I'm just wondering, what the chances are of me being able to upgrade the v7 CallManager cluster to v9 after I completed another restore between steps (3) and (4). Should I apply the rehosted license file again? It's there, listed in the license files. Also, I noticed that after I upload the rehosted license files, the old ones are still there. Should I remove those? Thanks everyone.
