required. E.g., 6.1(3) → 8.0(1) is a single-hop direct upgrade path, but 6.1(1) requires a multihop path 6.1(1) →
6.1(3) → 8.0(1).
3. If you are covered by UCSS, the new Cisco Unified Communications Manager 7.1(5) or 8.0(1) version can be
obtained from the Product Upgrade Tool at http://www.cisco.com/upgrade (see previous section Tips for Using
this Ordering Guide - 8.0(1) images are available only on DVD; you cannot download them from Cisco.com).
Note that all systems licensed via Cisco UWL are required to be covered by UCSS. Also note that UCSS is not
available for any Cisco Unified Communications Manager Non-Production System (NFR, Lab, SDK, Internal
Demo).
4. If you are not covered by UCSS, then you have one of the following options. The text and tables below will
provide specific information for from/to upgrade versions.
a. (Recommended) Purchase UCSS as part of the migration to 8.0(1), and convert a la carte to User Connect
Licensing via “UCL Software Migration” SKUs and Call-Control Option SKUs. The customer is covered by
UCSS after the upgrade/migration.
b. Do not purchase UCSS as part of the migration to 8.0(1), and convert a la carte to User Connect Licensing
via “UCL Software Upgrade” SKUs and Call-Control Option SKUs. The customer is still not covered by UCSS
after the upgrade/migration.
Cisco Unified Communications Software Subscription, or UCSS, is a subscription product that entitles customers to
major software version upgrades when linked to an active Cisco Unified Essential Operate Services (ESW) service
contract. Customers who purchase UCSS receive major software version upgrades at no additional charge for the
duration of the subscription.
Convert to User Connect Licensing via “UCL Software Migration SKU with UCSS”
