The steps I use are: Make sure you get the current Repo files and place them in \etc\yum.repos.d. If you are running on CentOS: cd /etc/yum.repos.d mv sipxecs-centos.repo sipxecs-centos.repo.old wget http://download.sipfoundry.org/pub/sipXecs/sipxecs-centos.repo
Check DNS to see if you are going to trash any custom DNS entries. If there are custom entries in your zone files (located in /var/named) you may want to backup the zone file and/or set the zone files to manual in named.conf (change the line that says 'Master' to 'Manual'). To edit the named.conf file: nano -w /etc/named.conf Backup the system from the GUI. >From the command line: service sipxecs stop yum clean all yum update reboot It may not be necessary to stop the services but I always feel better doing so.
