Any release has software bugs and most customers never suffer from them.

One bug I ran into with R9.1.4.0.137 is that when a user with a 1416 did a "delete all" in their call log, it caused a reboot of the phone system.

Nice, I do that on my 9508 desk phone on a regular basis and no reboot. I'll try it tomorrow on my collegue's 1416 phone, will be fun to see it reboot.

Mobile twinning (the "free" version) doesn't seem to work; the call to the twinned mobile phone drops after no more than a few seconds. We use a PRI in our office.
Have not seen any issues with mobile twinning on R9.1 systems. I do however have an issue with visual voice over SCN when users check non system local mailboxes. Up to Tier 4 with Avaya as of Monday on it. We are not upgrading customers on stable R9 releases to R9.1 just yet. When 9.1 sp4 was released I believe Nov 27th was estimated date for sp5. Haven't gotten ahold of sp5 yet but curious to get that into the lab and tested.

I Have now had two separate systems at 9.1.400 that when performing a merge lost all hunt groups. All other programming was still in tact, just the hunt groups disappeared.
We gave it a few months and now have done several 9.1.4 systems; not too many issues. One thing to be very careful of if upgrading is if you are using any legacy cards or old licenses they may become invalid. For example a legacy VCM card with IP endpoint licenses... this is detailed in the release notes I believe though.
Another (little) bug I noticed is if you are recording AA menu prompt in embedded VM, if the user wants to re-record (don't they always want a second try?) you need to hang up and start over; the option to re-record during that same session will not save and it will always use the first recording.
crumthwacket - I haven't seen that on 9.1, although when we upgraded from 8.1 to 9.0 we lost voice path on trunk to trunk twinned calls (internal calls twinned to cellphones work) - I have a customer with 9.1.4 and the same SIP trunks and they don't have that issue.

To all: thank you for your input. I brought the circuit provider in to clear an unrelated alarm on the PRI and can now focus on the IPO - it's either me or the software. I'll report back soon.

Beware of Softconsole. Had MAJOR problems and has been with tier 4 for over twelve weeks and still unresolved.
3 PCs on the same system with Softconsole, all having different problems.
