Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I guess I’m speaking about something like an v11.0 to v12.5 upgrade.

V11.0 only supports: 5.0 U1, 5.1, 5.5, and 6.0
V12.5 only supports: 6.5, 6.7

V11.0 is not that old, and, yes, while they should be on 11.5, they’re not.

An upgrade to 12.5 will be a challenge. Hopefully “bridge” upgrades are 
supported.

Let’s just hope there’s not a compatibility mismatch with respect to the CUCM 
version you’re running and the target ESXi version.

A lot of us (have to) wait for a few versions to pass before committing to CUCM 
upgrades. Sounds like step/bridge upgrades are in our future once again. 😊

Let’s hope the move to CentOS wasn’t _just_ an accounting decision. Maybe with

Cloud is good for some things, IMHO, but not a once size fit all.  As we saw 
from last year, the cloud is not immune to outages.  Unless you are big enough 
to get a dedicated circuit, you have QoS issues.

I have yet to see WxTeams work seamlessly on my mobile, the bug is back where 
it continues to ring after I answer on elsewhere.

My cloud connected home phone is rock solid (8865 to WxTeams), aside from the 
occasional QoS hiccup, but I would get that with any provider, not just Webex.

Would I advise my bigger customers to switch?  Not yet.  Hybrid calling is good 
for now and a properly built UCM cluster just can't be beat if you have a well 
built network, etc.

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

You've hit a few more nails right on the head.

I'll add this, just 'cause it's so much more fun.

On more than one occasion, people have come back from EDU conferences, where 
they meet someone who says their system has feature XYZ and their team said it 
was easy. So we're asked to implement and given strange looks when we say it's 
not as easy as it sounds and needs quite a bit of back end work.

We're very forthcoming in the effort involved in doing something, I'm guessing 
other places simply re-priortize and get things done and don't mention the 
impact. 😊

I agree on several points you've made. As we continue to "run lean" (meaning, 
in some cases, on fumes) and our management and leadership are bombarded with 
firms offering to deliver everything we do as a managed service that just 
fountains in over the "cloud", the reality of it is that we're compared against 
these claims.

We've built here a responsible and flexible service, with which we can offer to 
any of our customers a robust set of features. That being said we see on 
average a 4% take on features such as SNR, Jabber, etc. We are not aggressive 
in our marketing, and at times I'd term it elusive even, so we could do better. 
But that means that 95% of people will probably deal with the basics.

That is somewhat what I am trying to prepare us for, not building rube Goldberg 
line forwarding and shared line arrangements, and insisting on each customer 
having their own extension. I feel like if we switch platforms, or delivery 
methods, this will make things easier. Even this has been painful to implement, 
and not always practical. 

Regarding upgrades, we've limited ourselves to major upgrade windows 
biannually, and quarterly for SUs, non-critical COPs, etc. Despite everything 
being rubber stamped "24x7" , in reality very few things are. We push our 
maintenance to run overnight, or Friday evening into Saturday, and we go from 
there. IIRC you were cloning or rebuilding VMs within VMWare and juggling their 
connections to try and minimize downtime, but, we've found that as long as 
security and physical plant can operate in some regard, no one else really 
cares.

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Pawlowski, Adam]

I agree on several points you've made. As we continue to "run lean" (meaning, 
in some cases, on fumes) and our management and leadership are bombarded with 
firms offering to deliver everything we do as a managed service that just 
fountains in over the "cloud", the reality of it is that we're compared against 
these claims.

We've built here a responsible and flexible service, with which we can offer to 
any of our customers a robust set of features. That being said we see on 
average a 4% take on features such as SNR, Jabber, etc. We are not aggressive 
in our marketing, and at times I'd term it elusive even, so we could do better. 
But that means that 95% of people will probably deal with the basics.

That is somewhat what I am trying to prepare us for, not building rube Goldberg 
line forwarding and shared line arrangements, and insisting on each customer 
having their own extension. I feel like if we switch platforms, or delivery 
methods, this will make things easier. Even this has been painful to implement, 
and not always practical. 

Regarding upgrades, we've limited ourselves to major upgrade windows 
biannually, and quarterly for SUs, non-critical COPs, etc. Despite everything 
being rubber stamped "24x7" , in reality very few things are. We push our 
maintenance to run overnight, or Friday evening into Saturday, and we go from 
there. IIRC you were cloning or rebuilding VMs within VMWare and juggling their 
connections to try and minimize downtime, but, we've found that as long as 
security and physical plant can operate in some regard, no one else really 
cares.

Best,

Adam

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

This may sound silly, but in reality, it's out of my hands. I can make 
recommendations, but it all depends on the strategic decision the organization 
takes. Right now, cloud migrations are at the forefront. For a number of 
reasons.

Our on-premise deployment has a budgetary lifecycle of peaks and valleys. 
They'd rather see that flatlined. That's one thing. The other thing is that it 
takes a lot of effort to upgrade systems right now. Not because we don't know 
what we're doing, but it simply requires effort and co-ordination.  I've had to 
argue for the last 25 years that telephone services need special attention. 
Case in point, a completely isolated VM infrastructure since that's the only 
way we can build those reservations. It's been hard. I think they're sick of 
hearing it. Well, they've said they're sick of hearing it.

So if there's a cloud service that gives us 10% of the CUCM feature set and 95% 
of what we need. It might be time.

Regarding the SU release cycle, I believe I have heard similar claims before 
about cadence and committal to move forward and not maintain old code but I'll 
believe it when I see it.

Regarding the cloud services, we're being asked to look too like many shops. 
I'm struggling to find the real advantage to doing so, other than for the sake 
of it. Most of our customers treat our service like a utility, and if we have 
issues we are on it right away. Some don't really care, and that number grows a 
bit year over year. No one plans for continuing operations if there are 
interruptions, and if we ride over the commercial internet and lose that 
service as well people will freak out being cut off.

I'm still trying to work an angle to shift us internally towards user 
centricity a bit better. Get accounts for everyone, assign and track resources, 
one mailbox, etc. In trying to eliminate the old square/key PBX feel we built 
12 years ago out of this system (to replace so many of those ancient key 
systems), I'm hoping I can set us up to go forward into telephony applications, 
user focused services like Teams, etc which will make the pain easier. That 
would also let us get a better grasp on the classes of service that are going 
to form between the mission-critical and the yeah-it-would-be-nice-but-I-don't 
really-care, which can steer what runs prem or with fallback, and what runs 
hosted/cloud/out-of-my-hands.

Only real scare with a lot of these services is the lack of interface and 
access for someone like myself who likes APIs, who likes to tinker and build 
solutions and systems, instead of operating products.

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

I’m hoping that Webex calling will come out with a “video mesh node” 
equivalent, so when your WAN link goes down, you have nodes on-premise to 
service your phones.

That being said, chances are, that won’t happen. Cisco is going to expect you 
to have a “Cloud Ready” network with multiple paths, QoS and peering set up.

I’m guessing may providers will soon have a backup 5G/6G cellular data option 
available so if that squirrel finally gets through chewing the fibre, you can 
prioritize voice traffic over the wireless backup link.

So if I do the math...

No more minor versions

And 2 month SU cycles
...punches more keys

With an upper limit of 3 SUs
...punches even more keys...

That's a new major version every 6 months!

That means we'll see

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Ryan Huff]

Anthony,

Slide 20 of the deck from this session 
(https://www.ciscolive.com/global/on-demand-library.html?search=cucm%20version&search.event=ciscoliveus2019#/session/1540336593046001DbNj)
 makes a loose reference to it in the timeline graphic.

There is a deck out there that gives a deeper explanation (and I'll send it to 
you if I have some time to look for it); but it was essentially because the BU 
felt features/enhancements were delayed to the field because everyone had a 
fear of " .0 " (not a wholly unfounded fear, IMO) and also some marketing jazz 
about being more inline with software revisionist trends .. etc.

-Ryan

Yeah, this was the jist. No one liked “dot oh” releases.



It just means people are now going to make up their own upgrade cycle in their 
head based on what we hear. Waiting until SU2 maybe? Who knows.

I heard this in a preso. Customers were not moving to .0 releases because they 
were perceived to be bad and waiting for .5 or .1 type releases. The defect 
rates though are not much if any different these days and they won’t want to be 
making releases that nobody uses.

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Charles Goldsmith]

I didn't see an announcement, was just told about the change, Cisco doesn't
like us waiting for the .5 release to push out to customers.  We all know
that the .0 releases have historically been more challenging.

So now, I plan to wait until at least su2 before upgrading :)

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Anthony Holloway]

Why not just all Major versions all the time?  Google Chrome is on version
76.

But seriously though, anyone got a reference to this announcement?  I
didn't see it in the cisco live preso linked earlier.

If not, what's the reported reason for dropping minor release numbers?

Re: [cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Ryan Huff]

After 12.5, no more “.5” releases, it’ll just be major versions (and the SUs in 
between). After 12.5 we skip 13 and go right to 14 (then presumably, 15 after 
that).

Yeah, I think with the move away from the .5 releases, we'll be getting
more SU's and less major releases.

[cisco-voip] CUCM SU release cycle

[Ki Wi]

Hi Group,
in the past , the SU release is every 6 months (usually longer than that,
approximately twice a year maximum) but now Cisco is changing to every 2
months?
