Note |
Please review all sections in this document pertaining to installation before you install this Service Update (SU). Failure to install this SU as described may result in inconsistent Cisco Unified Communications Manager behavior. |
This 11.5(1)SU9 ReadMe file contains important information about installation procedures and resolved caveats for Cisco Unified Communications Manager release 11.5(1)SU9. This SU can be applied to Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Session Management Edition.
Note |
Before you install Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco recommends that you review the Important Notes for information about issues that may affect your system. |
System Requirements
The following sections comprise the system requirements for this release.
Server Support
In this release, you cannot install or run Cisco Unified Communications Manager on server hardware; you must run these applications on virtual machines. Please refer to the “Hardware” section of the Upgrade and Migration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service, Release 11.5(1) for additional details:
Uninterruptible Power Supply
Ensure that you connect each node to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to provide backup power and protect your system.
Caution |
Failure to connect the Cisco Unified Communication Manager nodes to a UPS may result in damage to physical media and require a new installation of Cisco Unified CM. |
Version and Description
This SU is a cumulative update that incorporates all of the fixes and changes from Cisco Unified Communications Manager 11.5(1) through 11.5(1)SU8 along with additional changes that are specific to this SU.
Note |
You can only install this SU on Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release 8.6x, 9.x, 10.x, 11.0(1x), 11.5(1) through 11.5(1)SU8, or any 11.5(1)ES from 11.5.1.11001-2 to 11.5.1.21140-1. Upgrades from any earlier supported versions require a PCD migration. If upgrading from a version prior to 11.x, make sure you have obtained the appropriate licenses. This SU should not be installed on a Business Edition 3000 server. |
For a list of all supported upgrade paths and the supported upgrade method, please see the Compatibility Matrix at:
Caution |
Please note that if you install an SU it may contain fixes that are not included in the newer Unified CM releases. For example, a fix in the latest 11.5(1)SU, 11.5(1)SU9, may not be included in 12.0(1) because the fix was not available prior to the release of 12.0(1). In this example, an SU or ES on the 12.0(1) branch may be required to retain the same fixes. |

Refer to the Upgrade and Migration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and IM and Presence Service, Release 11.5(1) for detailed information about doing this upgrade:
Note |
Because the 11.5.1.21900-40 build is a non-bootable ISO, it proves useful only for upgrades. You cannot use it for new installations. You may however install with the base version 11.5.1.10000-6 and apply 11.5.1.21900-40 as a patch during the installation. |
Release 11.5(1)SU9 is available in both restricted (which is the release type that has always been available from Cisco) and unrestricted versions of software to comply with import / export restrictions to various countries. The unrestricted version is available in limited markets. Please refer to the “Export Restricted and Export Unrestricted Software” section in the Understanding Upgrades and Migrations chapter, of the Upgrade and Migration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service, Release 11.5(1) referenced above, for a more detailed description.
