Downgrading from 7.0 to 6.0 319
The vcx-switchversion command:
■Stops VCX services
■Changes the /opt/3com/VCX link to point to the requested VCX
version
■Issues a warning that databases must be restored
CAUTION: Do not reboot the system or restart VCX services until
databases have been restored. The VCX 6.0.x version has been selected
but the databases still contain 7.0 versioned data. This combination will
not operate successfully.
If you are downgrading a IP Telephony and IP Messaging server, or an IP
Telephony server, go to the next section, Stop VCX Database Replication.
If you are downgrading a IP Messaging server, go to Switch Operating
System Versions and Reboot.
Stop VCX Database Replication
If the server is running the IP Telephony and Messaging or the IP
Telephony software configuration, you must stop database replication.
These steps are executed on the primary server only. Also, ensure that you
have executed the vcx-switchversion command on both the primary
and secondary IP Telephony and Messaging or the IP Telephony servers
before stopping database replication on the primary server.
CAUTION: If the server is running the IP Messaging software
configuration do not perform the steps in this section.
