4.4 403 1.4 to 2.0 Upgrade Notes
The following procedure is applicable to the 403 only. All other CPU’s can be upgraded from 1.4 to 2.0 using the standard upgrade procedure.
Upgrading the 403 from 1.4 to 2.0 requires an upgrade of the loader software to 0.81. The upgrade procedure is as follows:
1. Install the Administration Suite as normal. Do not open the Manager application.
2. Using the Explorer on your PC open up the Program Files | Avaya | IP Office | Manager | IP403V1_99 folder. This will contain a file called ip403.bin. This file is level 1.99 of the IP Office 403 firmware and contains the loader that is necessary to be able to upgrade from Level 1.4 to Level 2.0 and must be used in place of the existing ip403.bin file. Copy this file to the Manager folder within the IP Office suite on your PC, that is, Program Files | Avaya | IP Office | Manager, to overwrite the existing ip403.bin file.
3. Open the Manager application and from File select Advanced | Upgrade.

Bugger that...
The upgrade wizard reports that it sees an IP403 control unit. It also reports that you have 1.4(xx) software and it can offer an upgrade to 2.0.
What it doesn't do is tell you that ticking the box for the upgrade will kill your system. Why can't the Upgrade wizard say "now, you don't want to do that", offer to upgrade to 1.4(99) and following that offer to let you do the 2.0 upgrade.
Currently the whole 2.0 upgrade for the vast majority of systems (ie. 403's) is reliant on readign and remebering the Technical Bulletins that will accompany its release rather than any active action by Avaya.
