Migrating to 3.0 Tips & Tricks, tools and best practices Pierrick Lozach Applications Development Manager, EMEA
Pre-upgrade facts • No more hardware certifications • Check support web site for minimum specs • Check that the licenses are ready (CIC, HMP, EasyScripter, Media Servers, etc) • Download latest HMP release (3.0 SU221) • Read the docs! Gets revised every day based on customer feedback • Can upgrade the DB before running the install (backwards compatible with previous versions)
Recordings upgrade • Recordings take a long time to upgrade • CIC Server will be slowed down during this process • Try to use another server to run this process if possible
Installation Medias • DVD • ISO file. Use Daemon Tools lite • USB Key? 4 Gb minimum is required • USB is recommended. Allows install updates.
Integrations • Installing a PSO package? • Check the current upgrade status on the support web site
Before you begin – All xIC servers • Do a full backup • Export Registry • Run Interaction Migrator (requires .Net Framework 2.0)
Before you begin – Overall procedure • Disable switchover • Upgrade backup server • Test backup server • Install client software updates • Make new server active • Upgrade ex-primary server • Enable switchover
Let’s rock n’ roll! • Set all services to manual (xIC, Handset audio, Authentication server, RTM server) • Uninstall HMP/Dialogic/Aculab • Reboot • Install new version of HMP/Dialogic/Aculab • Reboot • Install xIC 3.0. Reboot. • Install Documentation • Install Language Pack • Install latest SU • Reboot

SIP Auto Provisioning • New feature in CIC 3.0 • Requires a network administrator to make changes • DNS changes • DHCP changes • Uses NTP server(s)
xIC Upgrade – Polycom phones • Copy new firmware files in I3\IC\TFTPRoot • Reset phones

Nice things about CIC 3.0 • Connect to an existing session of the .net client (also works with Outlook edition)
In the near future • No more TDM support (starting in xIC 4.0) • Don’t sell board-based solutions if possible • Upgrade current customers to HMP
