CUPS requires that CUCM is running your new release before you can upgrade to 
IM&P 10.x, so complete your CUCM upgrade before you touch CUPS.

As for your main concern with switching order… since you’re doing a refresh 
upgrade you’ll need to switch your Publisher before you begin the upgrade on 
the Subscriber nodes.

See section Refresh Upgrade of Unified Communications Manager and IM and 
Presence Nodes (starts at pg23):
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/upgrade/10_0_1/CUCM_BK_U4214F9D_00_upgrade-guide-cucm-100.pdf

“The publisher node must be running the new software before you upgrade each 
subscriber node.”

Not doing this can cause issues when Subscriber nodes perform a cluster 
security password comparison with the Publisher. Subscriber node upgrades can 
fail midway through the process, wiping out your inactive partition and leaving 
you on your original version.

Time to completion can vary greatly. Are you using PCD for the upgrade? The 
latest version of PCD supports external SFTP ISO sourcing last I heard. In some 
situations that can be a real time saver. With ideal conditions, I would 
suggest expecting a refresh upgrade to take between two to three hours per node.

Subject: [cisco-voip] Upgrade CUCM and CUPS 9.1 to 10.5

Hello Group

I am planning the upgrade of our UC cluster (CUCM 1xPub 7xSub / CUPS 1xPub 
1xSub) from 9.1 to 10.5.
Has anyone done this before and can share some thoughts about it?
What I am mainly interested in is the upgrade procedure, when to switch (Pub 
and Subs) over and time used.
Any help is appreciated

Regards Reto
