Frequently Asked Questions About Operating System Software
Updates
Review the following information before you upgrade the operating system.
Why can I not find the web executable that the Cisco Unified Communications
application documentation specifies?
If you cannot locate a file on Cisco.com, Cisco removed the file from the web and replaced it with a
newer version. Always install the version that is available on the web, unless the readme document states
otherwise.
In what order should I apply the software updates?
Refer to Cisco IP Telephony Operating System, SQL Server, Security Updates for more information. See
to obtain the document.
How long does it take to upgrade the operating system?
The upgrade takes approximately 20-60 minutes, depending on the server type, the speed of the
hardware, and the age of the components (BIOS, and so on).
Where do I find more information (release notes/readme) about the software
update?
You can obtain the latest upgrade executable and version-specific readme document from the voice
software cryptographic site on Cisco.com.
Be aware that the readme document may be a later version than the executable. Cisco recommends that
you review the updated document for new information regarding the upgrade.
When should I install the software update?
Caution
Cisco strongly recommends that you install the software update during off-peak hours or a maintenance
window. Installing the software update may cause call-processing interruptions.
