Migration Matrix for Cisco Transport Manager Service Pack Releases
Revised: April 3, 2009
Introduction
This document describes the migration matrix for Cisco Transport Manager (CTM) service pack releases. This document is updated whenever Cisco releases a new CTM service pack.
Note 
This document accompanies the Release Notes for Cisco Transport Manager and the Cisco Transport Manager Installation Guide. Refer to the release notes for instructions on how to install a service pack.
Overview
At first customer shipment (FCS), each CTM release is frozen and a full CD image is created. After FCS, CTM patches are released when a bug fix is required. A patch is not a full CD image but a set of scripts that run on an existing CTM installation. A patch replaces files and executables, and can launch SQL commands that modify the CTM database.
Some installation and migration bugs cannot be fixed with a patch because the FCS CD images cannot be modified. For example, if the CTM migration from a patched build to an FCS build is broken, the bug cannot be fixed in a patch because the migration scripts reside on the FCS CD image of the destination release. For this reason, service packs were created. A service pack is similar to a regular patch, but includes a set of migration scripts that fix migration-related bugs.
Service packs differ from regular patches in the following ways:
•Service packs have a different directory structure. A service pack always includes a set of migration scripts, while a regular patch does not include migration scripts.
•Service packs are planned and released at scheduled intervals. Regular patches, which fix critical customer bugs, are released as needed.
•Service packs contain:
–Fixes for migration bugs, which are not included in regular patches.
–Fixes already implemented in other patches or CTM releases.
–Changes to third-party tools, such as Apache, JRE, and so on.
Migration Matrix Table
The following table summarizes all of the supported CTM upgrade paths. Keep these points in mind when you view the table:
•If an upgrade path is listed as N/A, you cannot upgrade directly between the builds specified.
•"Supported up to <CTM_build_number>" indicates the latest CTM build for which Cisco supports and verifies the upgrade. If you must run a migration script, the script name is noted. See Downloading a CTM Service Pack or Migration Script.
•"You must install service pack <CTM_build_number>" indicates that you must install a specific service pack before upgrading. See Downloading a CTM Service Pack or Migration Script.
•A service pack always obsoletes earlier service packs on the same CTM release. For example, a new CTM R8.0 service pack obsoletes all earlier CTM R8.0 service packs, but does not obsolete earlier service packs on other CTM releases (such as R7.2, R7.0, and so on).
