Hi Terry,
This should be a lot nicer since you've selected 10.x.
You are able to make use of the Prime Collaboration Deployment manager tool
(PCD)
There are two really good sessions from recent networkers. All updated for 10
with deployment manager info in them.
If you haven't seen them already - check it out. It will put all the high level
blocks in place for you.
Just filter on San Francisco 2014 and UC
https://www.ciscolive.com/online/connect/search.ww
After the high level, it's a matter of jumping into the upgrade docs (i.e.
there is one for upgrading with PCD specifically)
Compatibility matrixes, release notes for each product etc.
Other things to consider
What version of UCCX are you using?
Are you going to swap CAD for Finesse? (good future direction, but caveats on
some of the old CAD features not being supported)
Do you have other apps - Arc / call recording / wall boards?
10.x is all virtual for CUCM - do you have any physical dependencies - MOH
servers with live feeds for instance
What type of virtualisation - Specs based, TRC etc
Sorry, didn't have all the links in front of me at the moment, but they are all
pretty easy to find.
I've got 9.x plans, but 10.x needs a new one if you are going to use PCD. I'm
working on one of these for a client now, happy to jump in and continue
discussion along the way.
Cheers,
Tim

Subject: [cisco-voip] Avoiding reinventing the wheel if possible
We finally are embarking on a call manager upgrade from CUCM 6.1 to 10.x.
Since I understand some of you may have already taken this journey, in some
fashion or other, I was wondering if you would be willing to share project
plan, steps, stumbling blocks so that the transition will have a better chance
of success. As we upgrade the call manager we will also be upgrading our
Cisco Unified CCX Standard. We currently are using MS Exchange to handle our
voicemail.
Thank you for any information/knowledge you are willing and able to share.
Terry
