I need to upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.2.1 in the next week or so.
I have tested everything I know to test, and don't see any issues I 
can't deal with.

I'm currently running
-4.0.4
-CentOS 5.4 64 Bit.
-Polycom Soundpoint 450s and 550s
-Polycom Soundstation 6000s
-All Polycoms running Bootrom 4.2.1 and firmware 3.1.3 Rev C Split
-Sipxbridge with Verizon VoIP
-Auidocodes MP 118 FXO with 5.4 firmware for emergency
-Microsoft Domain certificate authority internally generated SSL cert
-Using ACD and Autoattendants
-Permissions change to allow Polycoms to upload their user settings
-Variety of headsets
-No remote phones

That is about all I can think of for what I am running. I do not plan to 
change the polycom firmwares.

I plan to point my repo files to the staple 4.2.1 build repo below
[sipXecs]
name=sipXecs build service for CentOS $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://download.ezuce.com/sipfoundry/4.2.1/CentOS_5
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

-run yum update sipxecs
-using yum, remove 4.0.4 FTP package that fails to uninstall
-restart all phones (not sure if this is necessary or not). On my test 
machines, the server tried unsuccessfully to restart phones. I can power 
cycle them at the switch level if needed.
-Check all the basic functionality (ACD, Voicemail, PIN change, 
Autoattendant, MOH, transfer, forward, Web GUI for end users)

That is about it.

As far as failback, I assume the only option is to reinstall 4.0.4 and 
restore from backup. If voicemails were left on the 4.2.1 before failing 
back, I would have to manuallly locate them in a backup of the 4.2.1 
system I took before failing back to 4.0.4.

Does anyone see any major issues with this? It has all worked in 
testing, but obviously my test setup doesn't have the amount uf users, 
devices, etc that production has.

Thanks,
Matthew
