Restrictions for Upgrading to Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Release 5.3

•We do not support upgrading to Release 5.3 by using Terminal Services.

•You can upgrade to Release 5.3 only from Release 4.2.7.x or 4.3.0.x.

•You cannot delete the SQL Server database if you want to maintain your current click-to-attend links, attachments, and meeting recordings. Deleting or rebuilding your current database will delete all of this information.

•We support upgrading to Release 5.3 from a supported Cisco MCS or exact HP or IBM equivalent. If you are not using a supported Cisco MCS or exact HP or IBM equivalent, you must install Release 5.3 as a new installation on a supported Cisco MCS.

•If you are upgrading Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing load balancing clusters, every web server in a cluster must be upgraded to the exact same release and build number, for example, Release 5.3.x.

•If you have any customizations that you made in Release 4.2.7.x or 4.3.0.x, they will be lost when you upgrade to Release 5.3. You will have to re-implement your customizations through the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Administrative pages as part of the overall system configuration.
