Ok, been away from total control issues for tooooo long. Now I'm
wanting to upgrade to v.92 after paying for several years of
software maintenance and NOT using it. DOH!@#&$*#@^*
Now I'm concerned about all the warnings to upgrade to TCS 4.3
before upgrading to TCS 4.5.
Here's my question. TCM wouldn't let me upgrade to save my life,
but I did successfully z-modem the TCS4.5 code on an hipernmc, hiperarc
and hiperdsp. They all boot fine and the chassis takes calls. But my
quick test had an explainable problem (I think) but I didn't find it
until after I swapped back in the old harc and hdsp (had wrong netmask
on dial ip pool causing problem with rip announcements to cisco,
the other basic stuff worked). I'm planning another attempt with the
netmask corrected.
Since I still have old hardware on the old code I'm safe and
only risk trashing the three cards I've upgraded. But still back
where I started, with v.92 code but no v.92 yet. Oh the joys of
delegating responsibility! Has anyone successfully jumped across
several TCS versions before and lived to tell about it? I haven't
pleaded to utstar yet to see if they'll let me have the in-between
versions, plus I'd hate to have to do so many stinking upgrades
anyway to get to TCS4.5. Plus without hardware upgrades, I think
I have the latest software I'm going to get.
