I'm using HP equivalent MCS servers, so the jump upgrade does not work. Tried it, failed. Got feed back from the group that it's not supported.

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

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.
Lelio
