It seems that when planning a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) upgrade, the amount of releases are sometimes dizzying!  Can I direct upgrade or not?  Do I need to PUT (product upgrade tool) for a license and CD?  How do I match the release ID with the CUCM version ID (7.1(3a) vs. 7.1.3.20000-2).  I know that pain and Cisco has created a tool to help us with the process.  Check out the link here.
With this tool, you can input your version (supports only 5.1(3)+) and which version you want to migrate to.  It will let you know if you can upgrade directly and what the licensing implications are.  As a customer looking at upgrading to 8.x, this tool is a terrific resource for upgrade planning.  Check it out!
