PRODUCT BULLETIN NO. EOL1098
Effective July 2005
Cisco Systems® announces the end of sale of Cisco® CallManager Version 3.2. Cisco CallManager is the software call-processing component of the enterprise IP telephony solution enabled by Cisco. It extends business telephony features and capabilities to packet telephony network devices such as IP phones, media processing devices, voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways, and multimedia applications. Additional data, voice, and video services such as unified messaging, multimedia conferencing, collaborative contact centers, and interactive multimedia response systems interact with the IP telephony solution through the Cisco CallManager open telephony application programming interfaces (APIs). As such, the software content expands as it acquires improvements with each new version of Cisco CallManager. New version releases do not constitute end-of-life events; Cisco CallManager versions are replaced by successors that provide enhancements to the former version. These subsequent versions, along with associated services and phone firmware loads, accumulate significantly more intensive component, system, and solutions testing than any previous version of Cisco CallManager.
Cisco CallManager Version 3.2 was released on Cisco.com on February 15, 2002, and was further enhanced and substituted by several maintenance and feature versions, ending with Version 3.2(3) as outlined in Table 1.

As each new version became available, it became a better alternative to a previous version, so that, over time, demand for the previous versions decreased. With previous versions, compatibility was ensured through extensive testing. This notice applies to all versions of Cisco CallManager Version 3.2(x). The last day to order Cisco CallManager 3.2 is January 15, 2006.
Customers may choose to continue using Cisco CallManager Version 3.2(x). Customers with active service contracts will continue to receive support from the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) until January 15, 2009.

PRODUCT MIGRATION OPTIONS
Cisco CallManager customers are encouraged to take advantage of new and updated features that address security, rich media, and interoperability components. Customers with current Software Application Support plus Upgrades (SASU) contracts may upgrade to Cisco CallManager Versions 3.3(5) and 4.X 0 with no software charge. Standard support allows for upgrades to the last release version on the current trains. For more information about supported upgrades and compatibility with other Cisco application releases, please visit:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/c_callmg/ccmcomp.htm
Customers with Cisco CallManager Version 3.2 Must Upgrade to Cisco CallManager 3.3
Customers currently running an environment with Cisco CallManager Version 3.2 must obtain the Cisco CallManager 3.3 upgrade (SW-CCM-3.3-UPG=). Customers who have a current SASU contract can order this stock-keeping unit (SKU) product at no charge using the Product Upgrade Tool (PUT), which is located at:
http://www.cisco.com/upgrade
The customer must order one Cisco CallManager 3.3 upgrade SW-CCM-3.3-UPG= for each Cisco CallManager server that is being upgraded.
Upgrades to Cisco CallManager Version 3.3 require a fresh install of the operating system. Customers must therefore install the upgrade from a newly ordered package of Cisco CallManager 3.3 CD -ROMs. Upgrades from downloadable CCO Cisco.com images are not possible with the upgrade to version Version 3.3. The set of CDs in the upgrade package allows for software upgrades to existing Cisco MCS media-convergence-server platforms, the Cisco SPE 310, and all supported third-party platforms.
Customers with Cisco CallManager 3.2 Who Want to Upgrade to Cisco CallManager Version 4.0 or CallManager 4.1
Note that the current system (with 3.2) must first be upgraded to Cisco CallManager Version 3.3 before an upgrade to Cisco CallManager 4.0 or greater is attempted. In addition, a migration to a new server may also be required. The following servers are not supported with Cisco CallManager Version 4.0:
• MCS7820Cisco 7820 Media Convergence Server
• Cisco MCS7822 Media Convergence Server
• Cisco MCS7830 Media Convergence Server
• IBM x330 800 MHz, -1 GHz,800MHz-1GHz and IBM x340
