Purpose of this Document
This document contains compatibility information for 12.5(x) releases of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified Communications Manager) and the Cisco Unified Communications Manager IM and Presence Service (IM and Presence Service). This includes subsequent SU releases as well, unless indicated otherwise.
Supported Upgrade and Migration Paths
The following table highlights supported upgrade paths to upgrade to 12.5(x) releases of Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service.
Note |
Unless indicated otherwise, each release category includes the SU releases within that category. For example, 12.5(x) includes 12.5(1)SU releases. In addition, releases like 10.5(x) and 11.x include any SU releases within those categories as well. |

* Version switching refers to the ability to install the new version as an inactive version and switch to the new version, and revert to the old version, whenever you want. This capability is supported with most direct upgrades, but not with migrations.
** PCD Upgrades and Migrations—Use Cisco Prime Collaboration Deployment Release 12.6 or later for all PCD tasks. If you want to upgrade or migrate to Unified CM Release 12.5(1)SU6 and above, ensure that you use the Release 14 version of the Cisco Prime Collaboration Deployment.
Required COP Files
The tables below lists the upgrade paths that require COP files. You must install COP files on each node before you begin an upgrade using the Cisco Unified OS Administration interface, or before you begin an upgrade or migration using the Prime Collaboration Deployment (PCD) tool. If you are using PCD, you can perform a bulk installation of the COP files before you begin the upgrade.
You can download COP files for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service at https://software.cisco.com/download/home/268439621. After you select the destination version for the upgrade, choose Unified Communications Manager Utilities to see the list of COP files.
Note |
You should run the Upgrade Readiness COP file prior to the upgrade in order to maximize upgrade success. If you do not run this COP file, you increase the risk of an unsuccessful upgrade due to undetected issues on the source release. Cisco TAC may require that you run this COP file to provide effective technical support. |

Deprecated Phone Models
The following table lists all the phone models that are deprecated for this release of Unified Communications Manager, along with the Unified CM release where the phone model first became deprecated. For example, a phone model that was first deprecated in Release 11.5(1) is deprecated for all later releases, including all 12.x releases.
If you are upgrading to the current release of Unified Communications Manager and you have any of these phone models deployed, the phone will not work after the upgrade.
Deprecated Phone Models for this Release |
First Deprecated as of Unified CM... |

12.0(1) and later releases |
|
11.5(1) and later releases |
For additional information, refer to Field Notice: Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release 11.5(x) does not support some deprecated phone models at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/rel_notes/11_5_1/fieldNotice/cucm_b_fn-deprecated-phone-models-1151.html.
For additional information refer to the Field Notice: Cisco Unified Communications Manager Release 12.0(x) does not support some deprecated phone models at http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/rel_notes/12_0_1/deprecated_phones/cucm_b_deprecated-phone-models-for-1201.html.
Upgrades that Involve Deprecated Phones
If you are using any of these phones on an earlier release and you want to upgrade to this release, do the following:
-
Confirm whether the phones in your network will be supported in this release.
-
Identify any non-supported phones.
-
For any non-supported phones, power down the phone and disconnect the phone from the network.
-
Provision a supported phone for the phone user. You can use the following methods to migrate from older model to newer model phones:
-
Once all the phones in your network are supported by this release, upgrade your system.
Note |
Deprecated phones can also be removed after the upgrade. When the administrator logs in to Unified Communications Manager after completing the upgrade, the system displays a warning message notifying the administrator of the deprecated phones. |
Licensing
You do not need to purchase a new device license to replace a deprecated phone with a supported phone. The device license becomes available for a new phone when you either remove the deprecated phone from the system, or when you switch to the new Unified Communications Manager version, and the deprecated phone fails to register.
Virtualization Requirements
This release of Unified Communications Manager and the IM and Presence Service supports virtualized deployments only. Deployments on bare-metal servers are not supported. For more information, see http://www.cisco.com/go/virtualized-collaboration.

SFTP Server |
Support Description |
||
---|---|---|---|
SFTP Server on Cisco Prime Collaboration Deployment |
This server is the only SFTP server that is provided and tested by Cisco, and fully supported by Cisco TAC. Version compatibility depends on your version of Emergency Responder and Cisco Prime Collaboration Deployment. See the Cisco Prime Collaboration Deployment Administration Guide before you upgrade its version (SFTP) or Emergency Responder to ensure that the versions are compatible. |
||
SFTP Server from a Technology Partner |
These servers are third party provided and third party tested. Version compatibility depends on the third-party test. Refer to the Technology Partner page if you upgrade their SFTP product and/or upgrade Unified Communications Manager. |
||
SFTP Server from another Third Party |
These servers are third party provided and are not officially supported by Cisco TAC. Version compatibility is on a best effort basis to establish compatible SFTP versions and Emergency Responder versions.
|
SAML SSO Support
Although Cisco Collaboration infrastructure may prove to be compatible with other IdPs claiming SAML 2.0 compliance, only the following IdPs have been tested with Cisco Collaboration solutions:

Virtualization Requirements
-
Supported Web Browsers
External Database Support
Many IM and Presence Service features such as Persistent Chat, High Availability for Persistent Chat, Message Archiver, and Managed File Transfer require that you deploy an external database. For information on database support, see the Database Setup Guide for the IM and Presence Service.

Remote Call Control with Microsoft Lync
Microsoft Remote Call Control (RCC) allows enterprise users to control their Cisco Unified IP Phone or Cisco IP Communicator Phone through Microsoft Lync, a third-party desktop instant-messaging (IM) application. When a user signs in to the Microsoft Lync client, the Lync server sends instructions, through the IM and Presence Service node, to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager to set up, tear down and maintain calling features based on a user's action at the Lync client.
Note |
SIP federation and Remote Call Control (RCC) do not work together on the same IM and Presence Service cluster. This is because for SIP federation a user cannot be licensed for both Cisco IM and Presence Service and Microsoft Lync/OCS, but for RCC a user must be licensed for Cisco IM and Presence Service and Microsoft Lync/OCS at the same time. |
Note |
An IM and Presence Service cluster that is used for RCC does not support Jabber or other IM and Presence Service functionality. |

-
