Upgrading Web Servers Sharing the Same Database

Note Although it is possible to upgrade both an internal cluster and an external cluster at the same time, we recommend that you complete the upgrade of one cluster before you proceed to the next cluster to reduce confusion and the potential for error.

Web servers share the same database in the following circumstances:

•They are deployed as part of a Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing load balancing cluster.

•They are deployed as part of a WebConnect configuration.

Before You Begin

•See Chapter 2, “Installing Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3” to assist you with your configuration.

•Read the “Load Balancing in Release 5.3(333) and Later” section on page 5-2.

•Complete the “Preparing to Upgrade Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing” section on page 5-5.
