Old upgrades

[ipohead]

I know licences are no longer sold but were intermediate upgrades such as 6.0 to 6.1 and 8.0 to 8.1 free?

I thought only 10.0 to 10.1 was chargeable.

Until PLDS licensing became a thing there was much more fredom to move between versions.

10>10.1 is not chargebale for licenses. PLDS cannot hadle dot releases, so from a license perspective, they are the same.

You can go up to 7ish before the essential licenses was required. But what is the point??? are you looking for a new feature? If it works for the customer leave it alone.

The IPO was being repurposed and defaulted so the actual upgrade isn't a real issue.

I've had a better search on the forum and found

#270399 is IPO LIC UPG R8.1 is the one you need, minor (e.g 8.X) and major releases (e.g X.X) are chargeable, only maintenance releases (e.g 8.0.X) are free

If it is defaulted, what licenses do you have on the feature key. That will determine what you can do with that kit.

If you don't have those, you are screwed anyway.

The chassis is locked to the version of the first call. Anything with the correct upgrade license below 8.0 will get a virtual essential. As far as major and minor upgrades they changed their minds at least once a week through the years. Usually when they release a termite infested version (10 comes to mind) the minor upgrade is free. With PLDS is is by major version only. AKA 11.0,to 11.1 is free.

For the cost of a chassis, why wouldn't you just get a new one?

Jamie77 -I've got the licences thanks. Sometimes it is easier to wipe everything and start again.

Be very careful here. If you do use this system with these licenses, and then the customer decides down the line they need new licenses, they may have issues migrating from ADI to PLDS if the original licenses were purchased by a different company. We had this come up once with a customer.

The truth is just an excuse for lack of imagination.

If there is no IPOSS contract, you can no longer migrate from ADi to PLDS. Everything in going to have to be purchased net new.

IPO R11 lets you upgrade to any R10 version +

 

[ipohead]

Thanks for all the feedback on this. This is just a basic setup with Essential edition and handful of IP endpoints and probably not much value in moving to R11 even if it were possible.

There seem to be more and more restrictions on what can be done so I'm not surprised that the cloud offer is worth looking at (see Future of Avaya thread).
