Introduction

This document explains step-by-step how to upgrade Cisco Unity Express software from Release 1.0.2 to Release 1.1.1. and 1.x.x. to Release 2.3.x. These are the important highlights discussed in this document:

Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1 requires a new boot loader. The new boot loader has the ping and verify features.
The upgrade of the Cisco Unity Express software erases the configuration and data that already exist. Perform a back-up on the current configuration and data in Cisco Unity Express if such data is to be restored after upgrade.
In Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1, separate licenses are required for Cisco CallManager and CallManager Express.

Prerequisites

Requirements

The only specific requirements for the upgrade procedures are FTP or TFTP server availability on the same network that the Cisco Unity Express product resides.

Components Used

The only component used in this system is the Cisco Unity Express product that is being upgraded.

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Upgrade Procedures for Cisco Unity Express

This section details the necessary set-up conditions and procedures how to upgrade from Cisco Unity Express Release 1.0.2 to Release 1.1.1.

Setup for the Upgrade

The FTP and TFTP servers must be set up for the software download.
Ensure that it is possible to ping the Cisco Unity Express module from the TFTP and FTP servers.
A Domain Name System (DNS) server is optional for initialization. If DNS is desired, install and activate a DNS server on the PC or server before you proceed.

Procedures

The software upgrade to Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1 involves three software loading activities:

Load the new boot loader
Load the appropriate new license
Load the Cisco Unity Express software

Preparation

Complete these steps:

Download the Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1 software and the appropriate license from Cisco.com.

Note: Cisco CallManager and CallManager Express require different licenses. Refer to Cisco Unity Express - Network Module (registered customers only) in order to download the Cisco Unity Express 1.1.1 software.
Place the cue-installer.1.1.1 installation file in the TFTP server.
Place these files in the FTP server:
- cue-boot loader.1.0.17.pkg
- cue-vm.1.1.1.pkg
- cue-vm.1.1.1.prt1
- cue-vm.1.1.1.manifest
- cue-vm-YY-ZZZ.pkg
Note: The variable YY represents the number of voice mail users, and ZZZ represents either Cisco CallManager or CallManager Express.
Ensure the TFTP and FTP servers are up and running. In the case of a PC, ensure the TFTP and FTP programs on the PC are activated.
Issue the service-module service-engine <slot/0> session command in order to session to the Cisco Unity Express Network Module (NM) with Cisco IOS® software.
At the se-x-x-x-x prompt, issue the reload command in order to reload the the Cisco Unity Express NM.

Note: There is no need to reload the module in each step until the very end.
Enter *** when you are prompted to Please enter '***' to change boot configuration.

This allows the NM to go into boot loader mode.
Enter config at the ServicesEngine boot loader> prompt.
Enter these details for these various prompts.
- NM IP address
- Subnet mask
- TFTP server address
- Gateway router address
The Ethernet interface is internal. For the default helper image, enter cue-installer.x.x.x , where x represents the latest revision number. Enter disk for the default boot.
```
 IP Address [192.168.2.3] >
Subnet mask [255.255.255.0] >
TFTP server [192.168.1.2] >
Gateway [192.168.2.2] >
Default Helper-file [cue-installer.1.1.1] >
Ethernet interface [internal] >
Default Boot [disk] >
```
The system writes the information onto the Flash, and the ServicesEngine boot loader> prompt appears again. Enter boot helper.

The NM boots the helper image from the TFTP server.

Load New Boot Loader

Complete these steps:

Note: Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1 uses a different boot loader than Release 1.0.2.

Note: The system only reloads when the user presses y. You can essentially get through all three different loads (software, license and boot loader) without the need to reload in between.

At the ServicesEngineinstaller#> prompt, enter so i p u ftp://<ftp_ip_addr>/cue-boot loader.1.0.17.pkg, where <ftp_ip_addr> represents the IP address of the FTP server such as the laptop or server.
Enter p for primary when you are asked Which boot loader would you like to update primary or secondary (p,s) [p]? Use the other prompts on the window.
When the system boots up, it prompts you to Please enter '***' to change boot configuration again. Enter *** in order to go into boot loader mode.

Note: At the top of the window it says ServiceEngine boot loader Version: 1.0.17 if the NM now runs the new boot loader.
At the ServicesEngine boot loader> prompt, enter help in order to show the new boot loader features.
Issue the ping <ftp_ip_addr> command where <ftp_ip_addr> is the IP address of the FTP server. The system should be able to ping to that address. This demonstrates the new ping feature and that the FTP server is reachable.

Load the Cisco Unity Express License

Complete these steps:

Enter boot helper in order to boot the helper image from the TFTP server at the ServicesEngine boot loader> prompt.

Note: In Cisco Unity Express Release 1.1.1, there are separate licenses for Cisco CallManager and CallManager Express. Choose the desirable license.
At the ServicesEngineinstaller#> prompt, enter so i p u ftp://<ftp_ip_addr>/cue-vm-YY-ZZZ.pkg where <ftp_ip_addr> represents the IP address of the FTP server, YY represents the number of voice email users, and ZZZ represents either Cisco CallManager or CallManager Express.
Enter y when prompted for anything. The system should load the Cisco Unity Express image.

Load New Cisco Unity Express Software

Complete these steps:

At the ServicesEngine boot loader> prompt, enter boot helper in order to boot the helper image from the TFTP server.
At the ServicesEngineinstaller#> prompt, enter so i p u ftp://<ftp_ip_addr>cue-vm.1.1.1.pkg command where <ftp_ip_addr> represents the IP address of the FTP server.
Enter y when prompted for anything.

Some verbiage appears, but let the system run and the Cisco Unity Express image is loaded.

Note: The system only reloads when the user presses y . You can essentially get through all three different loads (software, license and boot loader) without having to reload in between.

CLI Setup

Complete these steps:

Let the system run, and when prompted for anything enter y.
The system asks some set-up questions. Enter n when asked Would you like to use DNS for CUE (y,n)?. The DNS server address can be entered later.

Press the Enter key when you receive these lines.

Enter IP Address of the Primary NTP Server
(IP address, or enter for x.x.x.x)

The questions that remain ask you to set the continent, country, and timezone. Enter the information accordingly.

The NM continues with the boot-up sequence. The waiting xx... line appears, where xx indicates the seconds to complete boot up. For the NM, it typically takes from 130 to 160 seconds in order to complete boot up. For the advanced integration module (AIM), it typically takes up to 500 seconds in order to complete boot up.
When you see the se-a-b-c-d prompt, where a-b-c-d is the IP address of the NM, the software installation process is completed and you are at the Cisco Unity Express CLI.

At the Cisco Unity Express prompt, issue the show software version command in order to verify that the proper software is installed.

This is a sample output of the show software version command.

se-10-10-9-221>show software versions

Installed Packages:

 - Core  1.1.1

 - Auto Attendant  1.1.1      

 - Voice Mail  1.1.1

 - Boot Loader 1.0.17

 

Installed Languages:

  - US English  1.1.1

Issue the show software license command in order to verify that the proper license is installed.

Note: The licenses for Cisco CallManager and CallManager Express are different.

This is an example of the Cisco CallManager license:

se-10-10-9-221> show software licenses

Core:

- application mode: CCM

- total usable system ports: 8

   

Voicemail/Auto Attendant:
